Qatar has a Choice: II

It would be ludicrous, of course, to demand the Radcliffe Line of 1947 be erased and what were the eastern and western horns of Pakistan be returned to India. What is even more ludicrous, is that Qatar continues to harbor and facilitate Hamas leadership on their sovereign soil.

Hamas has always used sentiment as a business model. Gaza’s hopes and dreams and quality of life are laundered straight into the numbered bank accounts of Hamas hierarchy and the organization exists because of one of the most prolific sins of mankind: Greed. It all comes down to basic greed. And as long as the billionaire barons of Hamas suffer no loss, the rest of the world can just go to hell.

In recent months Hamas has experienced exponential growth in marketing their business model. Their product is sentiment and it has forced logic to take a knee. Obeisance to what is a cult-like loyalty is on the rise. Hamas is now a household name, a mainstream brand. It has become a toy store for adults and a world of millions of Peter Pan in the West.

Hamas is a business platform run by common criminals. But it is also a polyglot enterprise aided by a digital age and Google translate. And if there is a modern analogy, it is the rise of Consumer Cellular which offers affordable cell service by piggybacking onto existing networks to provide coverage. Hamas is piggybacking onto existing networks within university campus – nurtured by the professors who have ideologically compromised education for decades. The resistance organizations are now storefront and not largely ignored backroom resistance movements. Piggybacking onto homegrown dissident groups with little to offer the world but plenty of opinion and the color pink. Piggybacking into houses of worship – which in itself is an act of blasphemy against the mission of the Christian church. Along for the ride for any given protest, or as seen in Latin America recently, with breast jiggling street dances of nonsensical women with drummers providing the cadence, as they carefully drape their kefiyyeh scarves to assure ample show of the best they have to offer man; I am not speaking of the lobes of the brain, albeit they are missing their frontal and temporal lobes.

Hamas commercial interests are traded along transnational lines with intellectual graft, war-mongering, black market weapons trade, hatred and profiteering all wrapped up into one distinct cluster fuck.

Qatar undoubtedly profits from having a hand in the management of the wealth portfolio of Hamas senior leadership; profit from elements of the black market weapons trade; profit from the prestige of playing the role of negotiator whilst secretly hoping it all continues to collapse. Qatar needs Hamas – until the day Hamas no longer needs Qatar. Sleep on that thought.

Qatar would never allow what democracy allows in our peaceful streets. Never allow for street demonstrations and rowdiness against the state. But what is not allowed is vulnerable to other elements which cannot always be controlled by a police state.

Qatar has a choice. They can exile Hamas leadership and allow Mossad to do what Mossad does best, which is to hunt. Or they can sit back and wait until Mossad hunts on their sovereign soil. I firmly believe that negotiations with Hamas must intentionally stall until Qatar does the right thing. Because at the end of the day negotiations are not solely anchored on the issue of current hostages. The issue is that future hostages and carnage against a well-established Jewish state must be prevented. It is time for product tampering, Qatar. Time for you to show yourselves members of modern states and not Medieval, insensible mindset.

Cut them loose – uterine relations and all. Pack their bags for them and force them to the tarmac. Then, and only then, should saving the people of Rafah be a consideration.

Qatar Has a Choice: I

My conversation with an individual in October of 2023.

Q. “What is the troop strength of Hamas?”

A. “One billion.”

Link and pertinent statements:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13406531/Hillary-Clinton-Israel-Gaza-Obama-Bernie-Sanders-Glenn-Greenwald.html

I once had a Muslim colleague opine, “Yasser Arafat was so incompetent he couldn’t manage to throw a party in an (alcoholic) drinks factory.”

And I am certainly disappointed in the spin of Glenn Greenwald – a man for whom I actually retain quite a bit of respect. Ms. Clinton does not speak from a well of bitterness. Her experience as a FLOTUS for eight years, a U.S. Senator from 2001-2009 and and our 67th Secretary of State from 2009-2013 give her the absolute right to call out uneducated, over-rated and ideologically manipulated university students.

The next blog will focus on one aspect of what has made Hamas such a global threat. Qatar has a choice to make. Let me drop Hamas right into their laps.

The Psychology of Musical Algorithms

Hard at work one day, I suddenly felt melancholy and had a feeling that I needed to have a good cry. Entering the analytical side of my brain – I could find no reason for distress; so I moved into my environment to locate the trigger. The PACU had a local station broadcasting music into our workspace. As I thought back to the previous half-a-dozen selections I realized that all of them were thematic for lost love… grief… solitude. Inwardly smiling, I continued to listen to the selections. A few minutes later, all of the songs addressed new love, whirlwind romances, etc. Aha! I had located a pattern. Darn the programmers!

A couple days ago, I was traveling north and began listening to 99.5 FM (The Wolf) and traced another pattern.

A man breaks a woman’s heart and leaves her with broken angel wings. He begins drinking like a drunkard, with deep regret.

He progresses to “One margarita, two margarita, three margarita, shot. Don’t worry ’bout tomorrow, leave all your sorrow, out here on the floatin’ dock.” He has developed a devil-may-care attitude.

Now totally over the woman with the broken wings, the man launches forth again with a dusty bottle of wine and takes another swing at life and love.

The fourth selection reminds us all that life might be short – “If I die young….”. So hey! Be a bit contemplative based on what you were just fed from programmers.

The station then went to a commercial break. Who needs a psychiatrist when C & W music works just fine? smile

And for the obtuse or low I.Q.? Agitation propaganda. I’ll be damned. This man actually earns a living – and a good one – producing his genre of muzik.

Mr. 38 % Bitch Slaps Americans

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13398351/Biden-blasted-clueless-claiming-Americans-money-inflation.html

This week, my interface with struggling homeless American citizens.

Thomas: Caucasian. Early thirties. No track marks on arms. Clear eyes but desperate countenance. Living in his car. Looking for his girlfriend who took off walking with their dog the day prior. No cell phone. No gas. Broke into tears when I asked him the last time he had eaten. Offered food. Stated his stomach was upset. (Malnutrition can effect the digestive tract) Offered coffee.

Walked home from the park. Made coffee and loaded a bag with ready to eat food and snacks and cold beverages. A new bottle of Tylenol was added, because poor Americans cannot afford to treat an ordinary headache. Placed a new wallet in the bag with money for gas and additional food. I allowed him to hug me goodbye – his arms felt very thin. With his permission, I called the non-emergency number for our local PD and gave information on Thomas and his missing girlfriend.

Same day interface with desperation:

Lori: Caucasian, mid to late sixties. I had seen her the prior day in the park with her old chihuahua. New to my neighborhood landscape. As I told her about my interface with Thomas she told me I had a very kind heart. “He is homeless,” I responded. She burst into tears. “I am homeless too. I live in my car.” She pointed to a vehicle on the lot. I had taken note of it for several days. This morning, her vehicle was still there. A couple of days ago – and with the temperature approaching 90 degrees – I noted that the side door was open to allow for circulation. I am monitoring her situation with concern and possible future intervention.

Mr 38 % has callous disregard for Americans. He is completely out of touch with the utter deprivation faced by many who call themselves, “an American”. Citizen is a dirty name. And the citizens I encountered this week are societal ghosts – living in their cars, malnourished, and desperate. They are desperate for a smile, a kind word, and an understanding – and not brutal and lying POTUS.

Those with “money to spend” might be spending it on Ramen noodles, pork and beans (known as “ghetto feast in a can”) or a sleeve of crackers. These are the individuals who put cardboard in their shoes and duct tape off the tops of their shoes to keep them together. These are the Americans like the one at the grocer yesterday. Elderly, on a cane and with a backpack. He had walked several blocks from his small home to buy groceries. He is Caucasian, English-speaking, a citizen. Who cares about him?

Across my city – I take note of the distinct look of desperation on the faces of American citizens: Lacking decent haircuts, carrying backpacks, they have “money to spend” – because the President bluntly demands they accept this as fact. I suppose Mr. Biden would tell the amputee that he really has a lower limb; the woman who just lost her baby that the neonate is in the nursery. Are these assertions any more ridiculous and callous than the words of the man who claims to lead our nation?

Americans obsess over that which they cannot obtain but they are certainly comforted knowing that Mr. Biden tells them they have “money to spend”.

It is what we call in Texas, “A bitch slap into the next county.” Not only is his flippant remark a bitch slap but it is filled with a truck load of fuckulence. Yeah, you can figure it out: BOHICA and that stuff hauled off from the cattle pens in Hereford, Texas.

Thank you, President Biden. Thank you for the 38 percent that you give to your job. But then again, we know he is not in charge. He is managed.

Historical Footage: Russian Air Posse Takes on US Air Force SR 71 Blackbird

Holy Hittite! Apparently, it is old footage, but I am still impressed.

https://www.af.mil/News/Photos.aspx?igphoto=2000595120

(The Sukhoi Su–27 (Russian: Đ¡ÑƒÑ…Đ¾Đ¹ Đ¡Ñƒ-27; NATO reporting name: Flanker)

As two Russian SU-27 begin to chase a USAF SR 71 across the sky they are joined by aircraft three and four. The chatter coming from the cockpits is pissed-off Russian pilots. The tone is definitely unfriendly.

All of this to make the obvious point. The headline today is that Russia only displayed one tank for their Victory Day parade. yawn The sum of all fears will emerge from the skies or from the sea. Air fleets and submarine fleets present the real danger.


Power Projection

Here is my first power projection image. Three years of age. I remember the death of the iguana dozing on a hot rock, the cooking of the meat, but not how it tasted. The image was taken outside of Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico. I may not be Crocodile Dundee, but Iguana Tammy – yet I still remember being taken by the hand, shown the iguana and watching as the reptile went from hot rock siesta to a hot skillet. I have mentioned it before, but my childhood was wonderful because of my parents and the lovely people of Mexico.

This power projection is from the HizbAllah (Shi’a) side of the street.


Whose finger wore this ring and gifted it to another? Also the Shi’a side of the street.

Still considering timing regarding what to write about Hamas and leadership relationship with the nation of Qatar. The journalist may enter the pub again in coming months, and I am seeking context for what I write.

Nine Seconds

https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-800336

The video I viewed is not from the newly created Telegram channel. It is from a different Arabic source. But from a shadow moving forward to a “Shalom” and five shots fired in measured manner, death greeted an Israeli businessman. It was over in nine seconds.

As always, every ambush requires a videographer to document the crime.

Molech, God of War

“When World War II ended in 1945, six million European Jews were dead, killed in the Holocaust. About 1.5 million of the victims were children.” Holocaust Encyclopedia

In the Sudan, 435 children perished in 2023.

Thirty-eight Jewish children died on one day – October 7th.

UN data states six hundred children have died in the Ukraine theater of operation.

Only one image is used on my blog to document childhood death. Below, one of the few images I posted of Ukrainian children harboring in a cellar. I choose not to show the young victims of war because of my journalism standard. I also believe that wars are by nature brutal – if they are to be won. Civilian casualties should be avoided. And Jean-Jacques Rousseau comes to mind. But philosophers do not run wars. Neither do palace eunuchs run wars – they are the diplomatic corps. Men unafraid to weaponize violence must lead in war and soldiers do not train with knitting needles, they train for weapons proficiency. History demonstrates that adults… children… dogs, cats, and goldfish… perish during time of war.

Because I promised honest reporting after October 7th, it is with great sadness that I post this image – taken from a video of men frantically attempting to remove children from the rubble of war. This is what war looks like on the ground. It cannot be sanitized, nor should it be. But on October 7th, Hamas knew that Molech, one of the many gods of war, would make demands for the children of Gaza. They knew. They knew that children would die, yet they calmly sat in Qatar and considered the children expendable.

The Jewish children slaughtered on 7 October 2023 were killed in no less brutal manner than the children in the image above. But they all died when Molech entered the war. The children from Gaza merely had an additional seven months to live.

Let’s move the conversation forward – not to what Israel must do, but what Qatar must be willing to do so that Molech can recede into history once again.

  • The image grab from the video makes the children look like an AI generated product. The video depiction is quite a bit more graphic and appears real.
