HISTORY NEEDS SOME TIME TO EVALUATE WHAT'S REALLY HAPPENING

 I don't want to be seen as one of those zealots who pushes fanatical ideas in pursuit of my own religious (read ethical), social and political ideals but ...  some things have to be shared.

I've written a few posts recently about geopolitics and the looming disaster of the second term as president of Donald Trump and have done so in the full awareness that the many,  most,  some of, the two readers of this blog's posts haven't  been living in a vacuum and are up to date with these momentous happenings. There's just so much information circulating on the web, in print and written on toilet walls though (not mine as The Old Girl's coming home tomorrow and everything has to be clean and tidy) that it helps when some good stuff is shared.

This evening I watched an ABC News In Depth report written and presented by Matt Bevan who I trust titled "The shocking story behind Trump's plan to own Gaza - if you're listening."



This is 19 minutes long but is well worth watching - and listening to - because it is a good essay covering the background leading to the situation today that exposes not only that idiot Trump but the egregious other players like the greedy simp Jared Kushner, the criminal Netanyahu and the oligarchs like, in this case, Ronald Lauder who stand to benefit.

Shalom.

Good morning from Havelock North. It's pissing down here.

I'd edit out the opening sentence... "I don't want to be seen as one of those zealots who pushes fanatical ideas in pursuit of my own religious (read ethical), social and political ideals but ... some things have to be shared." It reads like you are indeed a fanatical zealot reluctantly sharing 'things'.
Otherwise thanks for bringing me up to speed, the video was certainly well done and believable, I especially enjoyed the little humorous touches in the graphics animations.
The proposed solution of moving the Palestinians out of their country reminds me of what the English did here to the Maori when they forced them from the productive volcanic land of the North to the swamps in the middle of the North Island where they could barely make a living cutting and selling flax.
