For those of you who never read Hiroshima (James Hersey, 1946), this sobering and chilling masterpiece should be read along with War Is a Racket (USMC General General Smedley D. Butler, 1935), The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, The Devil's Dictionary (Ambrose Bierce, 1911), The Face of Battle (John Keegan, 1976), The Banality of Evil (Hannah Arendt, 1963), Lost Horizon (James Hilton, 1935) or any of Shakespeare's dramas involving war, brutality, and conquest: Titus Andronicus, Coriolanus, MacBeth, Richard III, Henry IV - Parts I and II, and Julius Caesar, amongst others.

Performed in the key of C Major, like Maestro Franz Schubert's Ninth Symphony ("the Great").


When Gov. Joe Lombardo (R-NV) referenced fallen Las Vegas police officer Austin Abdelnabi at a political rally, the mob of Dummkopf Trumpf supporters blindly cascaded a chorus of loud boos at him, thinking he was talking about Democratic Senate Candidate for Michigan Dr. Abdul el-Sayed. "No, no -- we're not booing him," Lombardo admonished the throng. "He's the officer that passed away here recently." Audible gasps could be heard from the rabble. Lombardo then asked the unruly horde to participate in a moment of silence for Abdelnabi, whom he then referred to as "Officer Austin."

A few weeks ago Gov Joe Lombardo (R) ran a red light, then dropped his own name to the police officer. Oops!

  • Not long after POTUS John F. Kennedy's inauguration on 20 Jan 1961, he would grow furious at American newspapers that openly reported about CIA's "secret" training of Cuban guerrillas (Brigade 2506) in Guatemala and Florida -- alongside 60 members of the Alabama Air National Guard -- and the obvious USG plans to overthrow the nascent Fidel Castro regime in Cuba. Now 65 years later, the New York Times openly reports that CIA established a Task Force to oust the Havana regime.
  • Well, at least in 2024 POTUS Joe Biden (D) got 138 Israeli hostages released from Palestinian resistance fighters in Gaza who were seeking a prisoner exchange for any of the 4,450 Palestinians held in brutal IDF custody or America would be in a deep dire strait today led by a reckless and greedy Republican megalomaniac in the White House.
    This angered JFK


    The Justice Department has filed the first-ever case in the US Alien Terrorist Removal Court (ATRC), seeking to remove Nazira Haji Zada (47) residing in Fort Worth, TX, for her alleged role in a crime that was to be committed by her son and son-in-law on US Election Day (Tuesday, 5 Nov 2024).

    The FBI foiled the plot and no casualties were caused

    In a nutshell:

    ......

    So, thanks Joe Biden and USAG Merrick Garland for shielding these Mossad Sayanim from investigative and international public scrutiny for four years: 21 Jan 2021 to 19 Jan 2025, leaving the rest of us with unstable warmonger Dummkopf Trumpf, the "BBB," and oligarchic rule.

    Israel first over America, right AIPAC?

    GFY AIPAC Democrats and Republicans!

    And "Genocide Joe!" -- please enjoy your $417,000 per year pension -- the largest taxpayer-funded pension of any former POTUS in intergalactic history.

    Does Palestinian blood wash off your hands easier with all that pelf?

    Of course, not mentioned in my OP are these two non-military, but important books that should be read as well:
    Beethoven's Letters (translated by Dr A.C. Kalischer, 1972) and Silent Spring (Rachel Carson, 1962).
