Art of the Day: The Water Fountain. To make the simple, elegant; the functional, expressive; the accessible, ideal. Decorative arts charm the mind by turning the ordinary into extraordinary, the everyday into an otherworldly invitation. This form of decorative arts remakes our material world into an ethereal paradise of the mind evoking the God shaped spark of the soul for a task as mundane as getting a sip of water. 

Book Recommendation History rhymes. The last effort of the Deep State to regime change in Iran birthed us the current regime. The Coup: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13586980-the-coup?

Wisdom of the Day: “A passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter, without adequate inducement or justification.” George Washington, Farewell Address.

Art of the Day: Bansky, the infamous anonymous muralist, whose famed art appears overnight in hot spots around the globe, eviscerates war propaganda with the brilliant contrasting images of his Bombs with Babies. Gets the point across with elegant efficacy. The only certainty with war is horror awaits someone, somewhere. A bias toward NO tenders out universal humanitarianism.

Book Recommendation: The Achilles Trap: The Iraq War.  Riddled with incompetency, the decisions at each stage backfired in our Mideastern war politics, summed up as we “failed to grasp critical nuances” of the enemy.

Wisdom of the Day: “But America goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy…. America well knows that by once enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign Independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication, in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy, and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standard of freedom. The fundamental maxims of her policy would insensibly change from liberty to force. The frontlet upon her brow would no longer beam with the ineffable splendor of Freedom and Independence; but in its stead would soon be substituted an Imperial Diadem, flashing in false and tarnished lustre the murky radiance of dominion and power. She might become the dictatress of the world. She would be no longer the ruler of her own spirit.” John Quincy Adams.

Barnes Brief: Special War Edition, Monday, June 16, 2025
  • When swing state voters were asked in 2024, they overwhelmingly opposed joining any war between Israel and Iran.

 

  • This is nothing new, as the same skepticism animated voter response during the Iran nuclear weapons panic of 2009.

 

  • Americans do not want the US to be the dominant player on the world’s stage.

 

  • Americans see us as overinvolved already.

 

  • Americans do not want to risk war with nuclear powers.

 

  • Americans no longer believe intervention solves anything.

 

 

  •  This reflects souring opinion on military interventions in general.

 

  • Americans saw this all the way back to the Korean war that sunk Truman.

 

 

  • They just as quickly turned on the Iraq war that crushed Bush and the Bush coalition forever.

 

 

 

  • Part of this also reflects that Americans increasingly view Netanyahu’s Israeli government skeptically.

 

 

 

  • Skepticism of Israel under Netanyahu is now a global phenomenon.

 

 

 

 

 

  • The only group that a majority supports Israel over the Palestinian cause are now reduced to boomercons.

 

 

 

 

  • Hence, Trump’s temporary Gaza idea was widely rejected right away by voters.

 

  • Indeed, a surge in opposition amongst younger independent voters even has a bare majority supporting even giving military aid at all to Israel.

 

 

  • Americans are even split on helping Israel against Hamas, fueled by young voter skepticism.

 

 

 

  • Every group is trending negative toward Netanyahu’s Israel.

 

Hence, why so few Americans back American direct involvement in a war with Iran.
