99 Years of Lies: Balfour gave Palestine to the New World Order, not to the Jewish People
Today in 1917, the Jewish politician, Balfour, issued his infamous
Declaration, giving the land of Palestine to his fellow Jews. Balfour
was not a Palestinian, he did not live in Palestine, but all the same,
he felt that as a person of Jewish heritage, working for the
contemptible Imperial government of Britain, he had the right to
interfere in the lives of people living many miles from the UK. T

Pinky is the Brain
The craziness of the Trump candidacy has prompted no end of analysis,
trying to understand the motivations and thought processes of the
weirdest major candidate to ever run for office in the US. And perhaps
anywhere. One constant analytical theme is of the “he’s so crazy, he
must be a genius” type; that there must be some sort of coldly
calculated end-game that we just haven’t figured out yet.
Antifreeze and Donald Trump
There are despicable criminals that deserve capital punishment. But I
do not support capital punishment because no system can guarantee that
only the truly deserving criminals die. If one innocent dies for every
100 or 1,000 criminals, then I cannot support or endorse capital
punishment. What does this have to do with Donald Trump? Imagine a
