I am a huge fan of Robert Barnes and I have spread his info and link far and wide, spent my own time doing that. However, I have something to say about Trump's bombing of Iran last night.
Years ago I had a friend who was a nuclear engineer from the USNA and Nuke school, who had gone on Med cruise.. and his opinion of people from the middle east was that they were 'rag heads.' Back then, I thought that was very unenlightened of him and I was highly annoyed. Nuke school grad said his biggest worry was that they would one day have nukes.
Around 2000, I had a friend who worked at Pizza Bolis that was staffed by middle eastern men. They were here on visas for the specific purpose of finding a wife to be let into America permanently, have as many children as possible and hopefully one day outnumber the native population. They had a little rug in the back, took turns praying and drank special teas. When 911 hit, they put a huge flag on the front of their pizza shop, as it was in a rather conservative, red necky area.
One of my moderators on a website I used to run was an American born Jewish girl who had made the mistake of marrying a Pakistani granting him the right to live in America. They had three boys. She told me the Pakastani forced her to live under Sharia law which she described as terrible, kicked out her front teeth out TWICE. They are divorced and the Pakastani has turned all three sons against their mother and she has no contact. She is constantly in a state of sorrow and holidays are hardest.
I went to a vascular surgeon for an evaluation. After all the testing had been done by American staff, some middle eastern man had come in the room, said nothing to me, looked at some data, never looked me in the eye, whirled around after 30 seconds and left. I was told they wanted to do surgery the next business day. I asked who was the middle eastern man? I was told he was the surgeon. Obviously, to that surgeon, I was a piece of American trash, a piece of meat, whom he could make a quick profit by. A second opinion revealed there was no surgery available to solve the particular issue. There were non surgical treatments only.
At another physician's office I was sitting across the desk from a clearly young, middle eastern physician. He was full of himself and speaking with someone else on the phone about me, giggling, as if I wasn't even in the room. It was clear to me I was yet another piece of American, likely Christian, trash. I am not angry at my old USNA friend anymore for calling them 'rag heads."
Then we have Grace Scharer. I watched the trial and a detailed interview with the father. Dr. Shokar, upon taking the case, his first or second sentence of Grace's records, Shokar indicates that Grace and family were Christians. Grace's disability was only mentioned After the Christian notation, as was the fact she was not vaxxed. I looked Shokar up and saw that he was in Chicago, he looked middle eastern. Suspicious now from my experience, I looked up his surname which was typical of Saudi Arabia; which I looked up and found was the 'birthplace of Islam." Shokar killed Grace merely because he could. To Shokar, Grace was a piece of American Christian trash and she deserved to be exterminated and to hell with her Christian family as well. During the trial, the defense noted that poor Dr. Shokar had to fly all the way in from Chicago. He sat there looking self important. Who cares where you had to fly from you POS.
So listening to Robert's BWB, Robert says that bombing Iran was a bad idea because now other countries will be sneaky about get nukes like Pakistan did. Why is it that we can assume Iran wasn't being sneaky already? In my humble opinion, all of those people from the middle east are sneaky.... Particularly when dealing with Americans.. you know, Christian trash... and particularly when they want the power of a nuke.
I recall living through the years where I was so worried that North Korea would pop off a nuke. Then Trump came along and told the little rocket man, "You have a button, but I have a bigger button." Well, that seemed to be the end of the threats after many long years of personal worry on my part.
My humble opinion, I think Trump knows what he's doing.
Thank you for listening to my stories.
Sincerely, Karen
