Animus

I found our previous president to be seriously unqualified for his job ... even with his extensive posse. As proof of this conclusion, I can only point to all the corrective actions that Trump has had to take since assuming office. Ergo, I clearly disliked Obama ... not because of his race, personality or sexual preferences ... but because of his backward and naive politics. But I didn’t HATE him.

Fast forward three years. Now, there is a substantial group inside the government (the Deep State) and the media who clearly HATE Trump ... no, not just hate, they despise him. This white-hot hate is mostly directed at our president because of his sand-paper personality. Many of his policies are often reluctantly and silently agreed to by the Left. But, this doesn’t bank the fire. (General Patton was not liked by many ... but he was a very effective warrior.)

Most of Trump’s domestic decisions have be winners ... even his immigration policies are beginning to bite ... even with severe push-back from Democrats. Certainly the Trump economy is on track despite the penalty being paid by his trade war. His foreign policy is still a work-in-progress ... hamstrung by the Democrats winning the House in 2018. Clearly the Democrat insurrection there has caused foreign leaders like Xi and Kim to try to wait Trump out ... hoping that more favorable opponents will be occupying the White House in 2021.

Such extreme hate is corrosive. It destroys the hater much more than the object of this hate. In fact, one could argue that this extreme resistance is motivating Trump. He seems to enjoy tweaking the haters which only makes them hate him more. Never in my life time have I witnessed more disloyalty on the part of those inside a president’s administration. Even people that I admire, like General Mattis, believe that their world view is superior to DJT’s ... even though this cuts across the tenets of his military training.

Next time you hear a left-wing diatribe singling out Trump, listen carefully to the motivation of this hatred ... invariably it will include at least one ad hominem ... proof that logic has disappeared  into the jaws of animus personified.

Afterward: I just realized that I forgot to use the term “spittle flecked.”

Racism

Accusing someone of racism on scant or no evidence ... or merely to enjoy political leverage ... displays an animus that is as immoral as actually being a racist itself. — Anon.

The Niqab Curtain

The Niqab Face-Veil

Now that Egypt is fully radicalized … given that the Muslim-Brotherhood’s rammed-through constitution has been “endorsed” by the people and signed into law by Egyptian President, Mohamed Morsi, it looks very much like this previous tourist attraction will cut itself off from the Western World and follow in the tracks of Iran back into the 8th century ... causing Israel (and the United States) fits over the coming years … see: Egypt's Constitution Becomes Law

Our current Administration (read Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama) not only did not resist this event, it is pretty clear that they helped bring it about.  There is a very interesting chronology of how this abetting took place in the following article … please read it in its entirety and don’t be surprised if a few scales fall from your eyes … see: Egypt's Avoidable Descent

To me the big question is … why?  Why would we create in Egypt the same kind of problems that we have been experiencing with Iran (and Syria) for more than 30 years?  Are we banging our heads against another wall only because the first one was so soft?  Are we allowing the Middle East to morph into one huge caliphate because it will benefit any of our foreign policy interests?  Hardly.

I can only come up with one admittedly far-fetched answer.  Hillary and Barack are joined at the hip over their deep-seated hatred of Israel.  They have both signaled this animus over and over again … yet it is continually papered over by most media outlets.  This hatred must be enormous for this daring-duo to allow what is clearly going to transpire over the coming decades when this caliphate is being formed … with one Muslim country after another being swept into the gravitational influence of this Sharia-law black hole.  Just as Churchill recognized in 1946 that an Iron Curtain was being pulled across Eastern Europe, so a niqab is now being drawn over the face of the Middle East.  And it's clearly very much a product of our current Administration's demented doing (just as the Iron Curtain was an outgrowth of FDR's failing health.)
