The soul must accept guilt in order to destroy existing evil, lest it incur the greater guilt of idyllic withdrawal, of seeming to be good by putting up with wrong. -Ernst Bloch https://brianmattys.substack.com/

The US/Israeli Bombing Of Iran: Means and Ways Without Ends An Update

Just sent out this free post. After more than 2 days of bombing it is clear that this campaign has no national interest goals for the USA but is entirely about getting a personal/political victory for Donald Trump. And because of that, he is flailing around wildly. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Cartoon showing a hallway in the White House. A gold-painted trophy cabinet has an ornate top with the name 'Donald J. Trump', a dove of peace and a crown above it. In the cabinet, we see the FIFA Peace Prize, a frame with the logo of the Board of Peace with the image of Donald Trump and the text 'Chairman for Life', and a display case with the label 'Reserved for Nobel Peace Prize'. Next to the cabinet is an open doorway with a sign 'Department of War'. Through the doorway, we see a war room with Trump, pushing a big red button and looking up at a big screen that has the map of Iran with a big target projected over it. A general offers him a McDonald's meal on a silver platter.

U.S. cities step up security measures amid Iran tensions FBI director Kash Patel instructed federal counterterrorism and intelligence to "mobilize all assisting security assets needed."

The β€œbig picture” here, to use Axios lingo, is that for a year team Trump has destroyed important counter-terror tools and diverted counter-terror personnel to immigration enforcement.
And that Patel, Noem, & Gabbard have no qualifications and are riotously incompetent.
