Here we are...

Apparently, Felon47 has decided to start WW3 to take the focus off his non-stop legal losses and plummeting poll numbers. He's bombed Iran, and in true abuser fashion said, "I want peace, so let's just leave it at this...or else." Blaming the victim for their abuse.

This is how it always works. It happened in Northern Ireland, when the British Army blamed Catholics for them being killed during peaceful protests, then got huffy when they were called out about it.

Well...this takes Russia's planned genocide of Ukraine and Israel's planned genocide in Gaza out of the news cycle. A gift, of sorts, to Putin and Netanyahu, while nothing is offered in the way of plans on how to win this catastrophe. And no one really cares.

I remembered the Iran-Iraq war back in the 80s, when Saddam Hussein went after Iran and got beaten back to a stalemate. Which only happened after over a million people died, between them, mainly thanks to Iraq's use of chemical weapons.

That brought to mind the Thirty Years War, in the 17th Century...which wiped out millions of people. Huge sections of Germany and Bohemia were left desolate...with 50% of their populations killed. Another war basically started by religion.

As was the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in 16th Century Paris, when Catholics slaughtered tens of thousands of Protestants...and there was the sacking of Constantinople (a Christian city, albeit the wrong kind of Christian) by the Crusaders, and, of course, the Holocaust (the meaning of which has been desecrated by Israel in Gaza and the West Bank).

I'm rambling...and now think it best to ignore the world for a while. It's all insane, and will drag you into the madhouse with it.

At least my trip home was uneventful.
