Don’t get me wrong. I really do believe that Americans need to finally stop kowtowing to Zionist corruption and influence-peddling and, yes, I still continue to think that Zionists are war-mongering White supremacists who are doing Judaism all sorts of harm. And for this reason, I totally object to moving our U.S. embassy away from Tel Aviv. But there is an even bigger issue to consider here — that it’s never a good idea to waste American taxpayers’ money on still maintaining a U.S. embassy in Tel Aviv, a city that is pretty much doomed. https://ahtribune.com/us/2932-israel-lobby-rebuts-omars-claims-about-its-immense-influence.html

“But why is that?” you might ask. “Seems counter-intuitive. Isn’t half the world already pissed off that Trump, the Zionists and AIPAC are trying to politicize three of the world’s greatest religions by moving the Zionists’ capital to Jerusalem?”

Sure, there is that. But new data has also come to light. I’m currently reading Dahr Jamail’s scary new book, The End of Ice, and he says that the last time our planet had such a high rate of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere as it now does, sea levels all over the world rose 130 feet. However, with methane gas being steadily released in the Arctic, the sea levels will rise even higher. And if there is a sudden large methane-release event, which is entirely possible, only one in seven human beings will be left after that. If we’re lucky.

But assuming that sea-levels will only rise 130 feet in the not-too-far-distant future, it will still be “Bye-bye Tel Aviv.” Tel Aviv is only 16.4 feet above sea level. American diplomats would have a far better chance of not having to swim for their lives if they were in Jerusalem (2,474 feet). Makes sense to me.

Unless the Mediterranean Sea is going to get blocked off at Gibraltar in the near future, Tel Aviv is gonna be the new Atlantis — right up there with the Vatican (63 feet). And even Mecca (909 feet) could still be up for grabs by the Red Sea. Only the Buddhists in Tibet (11,995 feet) will be absolutely safe! Perhaps Israelis and Saudis should spend more time worrying about how to keep their countries from drowning and less time worrying about how to keep murdering babies in Yemen and Gaza.

The moral of this story? That we all need to wake up to the fact that America’s real enemies aren’t Syria, Venezuela, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Libya or even Native American water protectors, heartland anti-frackers or Alaskan ecologists. America’s real enemy is the fossil fuel industry. And hopefully it’s not too late to do something about that.

PS: Let’s not forget that Washington DC (zero feet) will also be underwater soon too. But then isn’t the District of Columbia a Swamp already?

PPS: I’ll be in Washington to protest at the AIPAC convention next week. Wish me luck. Perhaps Ilhan Omar will be on the picket line too! Or even A.O.C. But I’ll definitely not run into Kushner or Trump on the picket line however. Bet ya anything they’re be inside the AIPAC conference itself, selling America out. https://israellobbyandamericanpolicy.org/

What would you do if some felonious bad guy stole your credit card and used it to buy a bazooka, an AR-15 and 20,000 rounds of ammo? Would you be pissed off? My guess would be yes — especially when you were driven into bankruptcy as a result.

Now imagine that something like this happens to a country instead of to you — perhaps a country named America. “But that can’t possibly happen here,” you might say. Wrong answer. It already has. Sleazy bad guys up on Wall Street and down in DC have already stolen our credit cards and hit up our ATMs. And then with our precious life-savings grasped firmly in their hot little hands, they ran out and bought twenty-one (21) trillion dollars worth of RPGs, F-16s, border Walls, drones and atomic bombs.

“No they didn’t.” Oh yes they did.

And when America goes bankrupt? Will it be the sleazy bad guys who suffer? Not at all. It will be me and you. The bad guys will have armies to protect themselves — armies weaponized by you and me. And we will have nothing to show for our lives but the shirts on our backs, if that. It’s a shell game. We’ve been conned.

”But they are trying to keep us safe!” you might say. No they’re not. “But do I even get a BB gun and a few large rocks of my own out of this?” No.

So what can you and I do change our sorry fate regarding this lame and dangerous situation? Let’s evict all those creeps in Washington from power. Let’s vote them all out before it’s too late — if it’s not too late already, that is.

According to Forbes Magazine, the Denver Post recently “confirmed that the Department of Homeland Security has issued an open purchase order for 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition. As reported elsewhere, some of this purchase order is for hollow-point rounds, forbidden by international law for use in war, along with a frightening amount specialized for snipers. Also reported elsewhere, at the height of the Iraq War the Army was expending less than 6 million rounds a month. Therefore 1.6 billion rounds would be enough to sustain a hot war for 20+ years. In America.” https://www.forbes.com/sites/ralphbenko/2013/03/11/1-6-billion-rounds-of-ammo-for-homeland-security-its-time-for-a-national-conversation/#71f7d734624b

“But how do we even know who to vote against?” you might ask next. That’s easy. Stop voting for politicians who have low self-esteem. Why? Because people with low self-esteem always go for instant gratification for themselves instead of for long-term benefits (to the American people).

“But how can we tell if someone has high self-esteem?” That’s easy too. According to psychologist David J. Lieberman, someone with high self-esteem tends to be moral, to treat both themselves and others with kindness and dignity, and isn’t afraid to tell the truth. Only folks with very low self-esteem go around blowing other people up – so always vote for peace candidates (such as Tulsi Gabbard).  https://www.antiwar.com/blog/2019/03/05/rep-tulsi-gabbard-on-regime-change-wars/

Here in Berkeley, you can meet all kinds of people — people from all over the world. I even know someone who is visiting here from Venezuela. “Yo tengo miedo,” she told me yesterday. “I am afraid.” Afraid of what? “I am afraid of all those thousands of refugees coming up here to America from Honduras!”

Yeah, but…. “They really aren’t people you should be afraid of,” I reassured her. “They are only trying to find a safe life for their children. Don’t worry about them.”

“It’s not them that I’m worried about,” she replied. “It’s America that scares me. The American militaria went down to Honduras and mercilessly broke that country apart like it was a piñata. They broke it. And then Hondurans had no choice but to scatter like ants. And now the Gringos are about to break Venezuela too.” I was starting to see her point. https://nakbatour.com/

“And if that happens, yo tengo miedo that thousands and thousands of Venezuelans will be forced to become refugees to here as well! With their babies taken away. Dying in Border Patrol prisons! Leaving my country shattered and broken just like Honduras!” https://www.npr.org/2019/02/22/696057482/trumps-venezuela-moves-follow-long-history-of-intervention-in-latin-america

What could I say? What could I do? Food always helps! So I took her up to Telegraph Avenue and bought her a burrito at Sinaloa Tacos and then we went to the movies. Saw Green Book. “Venezuela is safe.” I reassured her. “The Honduras nightmare will never happen there. Venezuelans will not allow America to use their country like a freaking piñata too. There will be no flood of refugee caravans coming up here from Venezuela.”

My friend just laughed. Laughter through tears.

Roger Cohen testified before Congress today, mumbling a bunch of evasive answers to some really dumb questions — as our very own Congressional representatives asked him again and again about “collusion with a foreign power,” and “communications with Russia,” trying their very best to hook up Russia with Donald Trump. But, hell, any American who spends even five minutes reading the New York Times knows that Trump is really in bed with Israeli Zionists.

It’s clearly obvious to anyone with half a brain or any familiarity with the mainstream media at all — that Trump’s heart clearly belongs to Israeli Zionists. Just replace the word “Russia” with the word “Israel” and Congress would never have had to go phishing for all those evasive answers. The New York Times and AIPAC have already supplied them to us. Daily. For years. In our faces. With no shame. They shout Trump’s affair with Israeli Zionists from the rooftops. Like one of those rent-by-the-hour love motels!

But Trump isn’t the only one in bed with Zionist Israel. Congress is too. And we Americans need to start guarding our freedoms from being “influenced by a foreign power” such as Israel (and Saudi Arabia) before we too start to get cooties. https://israellobbyandamericanpolicy.org/

PS: Am I being anti-Semitic here? Not really sure. In my own defense, I do equally decry the Saudis as well as the Zionists — and those dictatorial genocide-committing corrupt bigoted Saudis are technically considered to be Semites as well, so perhaps I am.

On the other hand, most Zionist neocolonialist genocide-committing dictatorial corrupt bigots are not even Semites, being of European ancestry. And Zionists are not even Jews either, actually, because Zionists keep ignoring the Torah — especially that bit about “Thou shalt not kill” — and also the bit about “Thou shalt not steal”. So I’m not anti-Semitic at all!

But judging by the way Zionists treat Palestinians (who actually are Semites), Zionists are actually anti-Semites themselves!
