Verenigde Staten van Amerika

Political inventory on Oct 1, just about a month out from the election and after four years of a Harris/Obama administration:

1. War coming between Israel (51st State) and Iran.
2. Ukraine (52nd State) demands more US taxpayer cash for an endless war in Europe.
3. Slow relief efforts in North Carolina and Tennessee (worthless original 13 State and 16th State).
4. Longshoreman strike will cripple half of the United States.
5. Oil prices are going up--higher gas prices.
6. Prices of almost everything already up at last 21% since 2020--and will go higher now.

Oh, and of course, we need to understand that government spending will be around $8 trillion by 2029--it spent over $6 trillion this year.

Remember when the United States [only] spent a shade over $4 trillion, all the way back in 2019?

Or better yet, when it spent just over $1 trillion in 2000?

Good times.

Glory, Glory, Hallelujah. The warfare State keeps marching on.

🇱🇧l🇮🇱l🇺🇸 U.S. greenlights Israel's war in Lebanon

Senior White House figures privately told Israel that the U.S. would support its decision to ramp up military pressure against Hezbullah — even as the Biden administration publicly urged the Israeli government in recent weeks to curtail its strikes, according to American and Israeli officials.

Presidential adviser Amos Hochstein and Brett McGurk, the White House coordinator for the Middle East, told top Israeli officials in recent weeks that the U.S. agreed with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s broad strategy to shift Israel’s military focus to the north against Hezbullah in order to convince the group to engage in diplomatic talks to end the conflict, the officials told POLITICO.

Behind the scenes, Hochstein, McGurk and other top U.S. national security officials are selling Israel’s Lebanon operations as a history-defining moment — one that will reshape the Middle East for the better for years to come.

The thinking goes: Israel has obliterated Hezbullah’s top command structure in Lebanon, severely undercutting the group’s capabilities and weakened Iran.
