"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.

*** Satanic Trumpf Junta Will Send Election Monitors to Michigan ***

Ten years of fighting the CIA-armed Mujahadeen in Afghanistan -- guerrillas who eventually evolved into al-Qaida -- cost the Soviet Army 14,453 KIA; 53,753 WIA; 312 MIA and an estimated $50bn.

"Argh! Cut off all trade with Spain! Now! Gargh!"

"Yes, Master, right away!"

*Blink!*

And the oil companies -- Russian, Saudi, Gulf State, US, Iranian -- made a killing off of the stupid war.

"The additional profits of the 100 largest oil and gas companies reached $23 billion in the first month of the war. By the end of the year, this figure could rise to $234 billion. This is equivalent to more than $30 million per hour. Five EU finance ministers are calling for a windfall tax."

"Um, green is good. Just in case you weren't sure ... ."

When the Serbs were savaging Sarajevo in that awful siege (1992-95), an Israeli woman contacted the government to say that her family was hidden from the Ustashi the entire duration of the Second World War by a Bosnian Muslim family. She said her saviors were in Sarajevo under siege by the Serbs. (How's that for allitertation?)

The Israeli govt organized a commando team (with someone who spoke Serbo-Croatian, I'm sure), found and rescued one elderly woman from Sarajevo.

KNOCK KNOCK!

"Dobra don! Do not be afraid. We are Israeli sayeret. Please pack your valaubles and mementos. We are flying you to safety in Israel. You have an hour to pack and we will help you."

Now look at the IDF today.

"Lo, how the noble have fallen!"

Yup. It's awful and there's nothing we could say. I don't think those folks are still alive today, as I lived in that building years ago.

"We must protect America before these lunatics give everyone healthcare!"

Hmph.

One of the 40,000 Israeli trolls missed this OP.

Hi Clownshack

You're right.

Notice that NONE of the Israeli trolls write about their top ten world class universal healthcare system while we go broke defending Israel and deal with a sh#tty system, United Healthcare, paperwork in triplicate, expensive drugs, and lousy medical outcomes?

"FUNNY"

Ha ha ha!

Another "life imitating art" OP by the housecat with furry paws and an XP computer.

"The Hills Have Eyes" movie and the banned X-Files episode "Home."

So, the new words in our lexicon: "Epsteined," "ensh#ttification," and now "Frankened."

RIP.

She was terrific.

Thanks for posting.

Wes Bryant, who formerly served as a senior targeting adviser and policy analyst at the US DOD who specialized in assessing civilian harm, stated that he found the astonishing figure of 850,000 to be "extremely alarming."

Out of 2.2m Gazans, the USIC estimated 20,000 to 25,000 were muqawama fighters prior to the 7 Oct 2023 raid to seize Israelis for a prisoner swap. The IDF estimated Hamas had approximately 40,000 resistance fighters before the start of the Gaza genocide.

The death toll in Gaza is now 73,102; 173,581; have been wounded or maimed by the American taxpayer-funded Israeli Death Forces (IDF). The IDF can easily kill 75,000 by the end of the year. But liquidating more than two or three Palestinians a day in Gaza would bring more international and UN scrutiny, so the IDF High Command has to settle for micro-attrition.

The death toll in Lebanon is now 4,320, while 12,203 others have been injured, courtesy of US funds and munitions.

US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026, barring Republican Party interference. AIPAC candidates of both parties should be thrown off a cliff.

The psychopathic Israeli Death Forces (IDF), serial killers of the Middle East, like the gravely demented Andrei Chikatilo.

I suspect at least one NYC Jew of voting for Dummkopf Trumpf and I came across two Irishmen who were conservative Republicans(!) in the past few years.

In NYC of all places.

This is like meeting black Republicans.

Blech!

A (Jewish) woman in my bridge game asked during the 2024 Nakba: "But, what are they [the Palestinians in Gaza] going to eat?"

I replied: "Good question."

In one building I lived in years ago, I quietly observed the tattoos on the arms of some of the elderly folks whenever we occasionally rode the elevator together. I would smile politely, give the greeting of the day, and then simply look at my shoes.
