Does the current conflict in the occupied territories make your heard spin? Then watch my interview with Palestinian anarchist Budour Hassan, to get some solid analysis from someone in the front lines of this struggle.

God it’s like thousands of years later and they’re still are making us care about that shithole desert.
I can already see the response, “But but…it’s a catalyst”
No, it’s a shithole desert fought over by religious nutjobs. How anyone can spend time caring about this conflict anymore is amazing. It’s just a joke at this point.

I now realize most posters here are far more interested in their own and family’s welfare
then what happens seven thousand miles distant.
Any keen foreign affairs observer will point to Palestine as pivotal for lasting Middle East peace. (see, you stopped reading HERE)
Last month, Saudi Arabia threw the indigenous Palestinian people under the bus in favor a an alliance with the current hard right Israeli government. Many Arabs can’t believe their eyes. How could ‘keepers of sacred Islamic culture’ bond with Israel
just to to kill fellow Iranian Muslims?
Most young Palestinians and a majority are young, see no future as Israeli prisoners.
Another seemingly hopeless group are the flood of war refugees struggling just to stay alive. More raw meat for Islamic doctrinaire
‘education’.
Relax guys, I’ve decided to take a long trip.
Get a little empathy, it goes a long way.
so long, Bob Inget

Bob, are you more interested in what happens 7000 miles away than in your own and family’s welfare? Do you tell them? No worries Bob soon it will be a global refugee crisis/new normal.

Refugees
…………………………….
On the boats and on the planes
They’re coming to America
Never looking back again,
They’re coming to America
Home
Don’t it seem so far away
Oh, we’re traveling light today
In the eye of the storm
In the eye of the storm
Home
To a new and a shiny place
Make our bed and we’ll say our grace
Freedom’s light burning warm
Freedom’s light burning warm
Everywhere around the world
They’re coming to America
Ev’ry time that flag’s unfurled
They’re coming to America
Got a dream to take them there
They’re coming to America
Got a dream they’ve come to share
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America
Today, Today,
Today, Today, Today

Ap, I glance at the ME adventures to see if anything has changed. Except for Russia now cleaning up the terrorist gangs sponsored by KSA and the USA, nothing is new. It may be the match that starts the shooting WW3 but maybe not. We shall see.
I am more concerned with what is happening in my own backyard, Asia. That takes enough of my time. And, of course, keeping tabs on the Empire’s latest misadventures that may affect my family there.

Ah yes, Palestinian “martyrs.” I suppose it would be too much to expect the Mohammedans to stop proliferating like flies. But in any case the brouhaha should not involve non-Allahists. No matter what happens between IsItReal and MENA, they should all be hermetically sealed off from the West. Christian “concern” (à la war-loving John McCain) should stop being used to justify American world policing and the importation of all of World3.
