*** IDF Murders Two More Children; Nine Total Palestinians Killed in Gaza ***

Reuters: "Israeli attacks across Gaza on Wednesday killed at least nine people, including a six-year-old and a ten-year-old, as the Israeli Death Forces continue its constant violations of the US-backed ceasefire deal. Several others were wounded, including children. "

Israel's values do not mirror the values of the majority of Americans.

Israel is a Rogue state and a Pariah nation that must be thrown out of the United Nations (UN).

Israel should be banned from UEFA, FIFA, Eurovision, and the Olympics.

US, Germany, and other countries must stop sending Israel billions of dollars in economic and military aid.

The barbaric Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and 36 other suspected war criminals must be arrested the moment they leave Israeli sovereignty and brought to the Hague for immediate prosecution at the ICC.

The American taxpayer-funded IDF are butchers and mass murderers.

US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.

This Palestinian below is asking Americans: "What have we done to you to deserve this?"

GruB Gott:

This Israeli troll is far less sophisticated than A. Fiend or CutiePie.

Thank goodness for *Killfile*.

How others read the claptrap of holograms is a mystery to me.

But R5D4 quite nicely puts my OPs and comments into the Flagged and Recently Flagged Comments sections, spreading the emeth for me.

My non-blogging friends read drudge.com. Although they do not comment online (yet), they get to see this mishegoss from Israel.

Ultimately, we should be grateful to her for helping us spread the word.

*** Boyfriend Gets Best Valentine's Day Gift Ever ****

Good-for-no-one Chris Collins (R) began serving his 26-month sentence for insider trading in October 2020. Eight weeks later Dummkopf Trumpf pardoned the goniff. This ex-convict is running for the violent Byron Donalds' (R) seat (FL 19th CD) as is crippled hatemonger Madison Cawthorn (R), another carpetbagger looking for a government paycheck handout in Florida.

Just two of the nauseating candidates running for office in Florida this year. There are others. Oy.

Todah rabah again!

Who's better than you helping us Americans out like this?

;-)

And Nader Hanna was lucky he wasn't blinded in either of his eyes or shatter an ear drum.

FAFO is right, as is "stupid is as stupid does."

His "friend" should be flogged a wee bit.

Local authorities didn't investigate or prosecute anyone because the evidence was destroyed and the punishment of losing a hand was deemed severe enough.

The good-looking Nader Hanna is ready for a realistic part in a college theater production of Titus Andronicus.

Todah rabah!

I wonder how Rahm Emanuel's speech eviscerating ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu at Tel Aviv University today transpired?

Bibi -- the demented serial killer of the Middle East -- probably didn't like it one atom.

"Dear Stupid Americans:

Don't listen to this self-hating Jew Rahm Emanuel or Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and keeping sending me billions of dollars for Israel's world class universal healthcare system while you Americans suffer with the BBB and austerity measures.

And your tax dolllars funds the Israeli Death Forces to kill Muslims wholesale in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Iran, so keep signing the checks and vote for an AIPAC candidate on Tuesday 3 Nov 2026. Suckers.

Signed,

Bibi"

"Another allegation!"

The brontosauruses from the GOP and AIPAC are all piling on Graham Platner (D-ME) for good reason.

Good-for-no-one Islamophobic pedophile protector Ken Paxton (R-TX) may have voted illegally six times, so keep the klieglights on Platner. And this blapheming Texan was recently caught on vacation with his strumpet girlfiend.

Typical, predictable, and pathetic.

"Iran, Not Trumpf, Is in Control of This War"

A most familiar and losing refrain.

Thanks for the update, Corky.

So, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was a decent human being with years to live and do more good before ICE murdered him.

Wow.

Endnote: 52 was the same young age as William Shakespeare when he was recalled by the Grandmaster of the Universe.

With all the billions and billions Dummkopf Trumpf has, as pointed out above, "$5 million is a pittance."

This donkey should just pay off E. Jean Carroll and move on.

For a schmuck who thinks life is a TV show all about ratings, Trumpf is stepping over dollars to reach for pennies in bad publicity.

The USDJ should just order the US Marshals to Trumpf's bank (Assets Forfeiture) and be done with this.

As usual Clownshack covers it aptly.

One wonders if Nader's friend feels guilty about giving his friend that hand grenade.

This tale of woe reminded me of that Madison Cawthorn creature whose friend wrecked the SUV that crippled him.

With friends like these, who needs enemies?

BTW: I haven't been to an "In Out Burger" in decades. I trust they are still de-lish and not pricey.

VPUTZ JD Vance to Israel two weeks ago: "You can't bomb your way out of problems." [sic]

Yup, we did that too. I couldn't stand doing that to the paperbacks. Good thing I didn't do much of that. And I couldn't take home the coverless books because they seemed spoiled or corrupted to me.

For me too, that was an enjoyable chapter in my life.

Now the mom-and-pop bookstores are part of "Vanishing America."

As a writer, I am sure you visited the Algonquin Hotel decades ago and met Hamlet.

Thanks, Doc Sarvis, entertaining little anecdote. I recall both actors well.

I had a chance to purchase Hollywood Babylon by Kenneth Anger when I worked in a NYC bookstore last century, but I didn't buy it. Can't recall why. And I had an employee discount.

Ah well, Akim and Nehemiah probably wouldn't have been in that expose anyway.

*** Train Conductor Fired After Insulting Foreigners ***

"A conductor at Tennessee's famed Incline Railway was fired for his viral Independence Day speech to tourists who were left disgusted by the controversial patriotic message.

Goof-for-nothing Jack Peterson, the now-sacked operator at the 131-year-old attraction up to Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga, TN wished his American passengers a Happy Independence Day before welcoming foreigners to the rail system:

"To the very, very few Americans in here, Happy Independence Day," Peterson bleated to his passengers.

"To the rest of you, welcome to the greatest country on the face of the planet, and if you disagree, you can leave," he snarled.

**** Dummkopf Trumpf Calls Iranians "Scum;" Ceasefire Over ****

"Danish PM Mette Frederiksen declared at the NATO summit on Wednesday that her country would defend its territory as Dummkopf Trumpf revived his longtime demand for control of Greenland."

"Byron Donalds married Bisa Hall on 15 June 1999. The purpose of the marriage was to allow Hall, his ex-girlfriend at the time, to qualify for in-state tuition based on Byron's Florida residency. According to Hall, the marriage was not a romantic relationship and she and Donalds did not live together as a married couple. They divorced in 2002."

Thanks, Doc Sarvis.

I recently finished Hubert Selby's Last Exit to Brooklyn.

That is not one of the novels I'll be re-reading as is my wont with other great works.

I'm reading The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway and I find that it's not as captivating as his later works.
