Violence runs on ignorance, fear & misinformation fomenting hatred. It is always about power, petty, political, sexual, economic. Education in empathy, trust, respect & desire to approach truth & seek justice is the response. Universita Aldo Moro, Bari, IT

We talk forever of security and threats to security. We spend $1tr a year for "defense" (and more for offense). But China controls the mining and refining of key minerals without which our military and economy would be on its knees in a matter of a yr or 2.
Poor governing. We are not secure at all.

I certainly don't know for certain. And 12 yrs of Jesuit schooling left me a faith that there is much I cannot understand.
I believe faith moves, can move, deep energy that we cannot fathom.
But not an all seeing God interested in what humans do in some rational way we might understand.
Blessings.

Should you take a supplement for heart health? Here’s what the science says. A lot of supplements claim to help your heart. But the list of those that actually may be beneficial is short, experts say.

Gift article
Why is it that everyone of this type of article offered by the Medical industry debunks supplements (often hedging with "more study needs...") but invariably don't tell us who pays for the studies.
Why do I find it so hard to trust them? Money doesn't talk it picks you pocket both ways.

What it also means is that these fools think they are fighting a rave-religious war with Islam. Locked mindlessly in the movie Crusades mindset.

Clearly a woman with serious psycho-sexual issues.
I am a "people" I sleep peacefully in my bed when I know that lawmakers and law"men" respect and obey the law, my rights, and thosenof my neighbors and everyone else.
And it didn't remind you of a quote, some staffer did.

Republicans Toil to Avoid Saying β€˜War’ as Iran Conflict Widens

It's not war dammit. This is a pin point "targeted" intervention including 2000 different pin points and 10,000 bombs and missiles.
Its and "operation" peace and democracy in Iran. It's a "mission" to help young girls get to heaven fast.

Live Updates: Trump Says He Should Have Role in Picking Iran’s Leader

Right. After killing 179 little girls, sinking a ship in international waters, blowing up Khamenei and his family, and bombing 2000+ targets for little more than macho diversion from a sagging approval rating and calls to release the specific Epstein/Trump files, Iran should call Don for advice.

A $220m project, a $143m no bid contracts, to produce ads like "Thank You Trump" justified under "national ermergency."
Noem's friends incorporated Safe Media Company 11dys before signing.
They produced a commercial featuring Noem on horseback at Mount Rushmore.
A national emergency? You bet.

He may not of realized it yet but war with Iran is the hill Trump dies on.
The only question is will he end up taking us all with him?

There are big differences however:
One of the two does not use makeup, dye his hair, wear a girdle, rape children, launder money, declare bankruptcy, steal from his own charity...

But starting a regional conflagration in the Middle East is a good one.
Afghanista
Iraq
Lybia
The lesson learned is let's try it again?

What happened in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya in the past 25yrs? They turned into ghastly killing fields. Political fiascos wars cost US taxpayers trillions $.
Iran has 2xs the population of Iraq and Afghanistan, both are less than 1/2 its size, and Iran is armed and organized
Lessons? No morons

Congress Splits Over Iran War as Senate Faces a Vote

Democrats said the president and his team had failed to articulate an imminent threat to justify acting without consulting Congress, while Republicans largely rallied behind the president’s decision β€” though some warned their support could waver should the conflict expand.

Ooh some warned! Oooh...
