Biden's obscene appeal to China to stop producing clean energy technology. Is this really happening? Is Biden really condemning China for producing solar panels and electric vehicles? Marketplace, NPR, 4/5/24: -- "excess capacity" of what? excess electric vehicles? excess solar panels? excess...

OK it's not a "BAN" but just forcing them to divest. We needn't get hung up on the technical jargon jibber-jabber. Why should any "Social Media" company ever be forced to "divest" regardless who the owner might be? What's the worst possible owner of a "Social Media" company -- the Neo-Nazis...

It's appropriate to compare this to WW2 --- though on a much smaller scale, the solution is essentially the same. As a threat to Israel Hamas is as much needing to be totally destroyed as the German and Japanese regimes needed to be destroyed in order to remove them as a future threat. The...

Stop pretending that Hamas has any Right to demand anything. So the U.S. and allies in WW2 inflicted "collective punishment" onto Germany and Japan, in the '44-'45 years when they butchered millions of Germans and Japanese civilians. They could have yielded sooner and done a "cease-fire" to...

Real Source of the China Hate (continued from previous Wall of Text) Of course we are, and it's not altogether wrong to see China as a "bad guy" (in terms of the military threat). It's the paranoia and scapegoating that's wrong, from both Biden and Trump, which they're feeding to the mindless...

translation: It's best for those refugees to starve.

Why not have sanctuary camps on the Gaza beach? What prevents the U.S. and other countries from delivering aid to the refugees on the beach? Jordan dropped aid there: Surely there are no Hamas tunnels there, under the sand? Why couldn't the refugees be camped there and receive regular aid...

Evacuation? or Let the slaughter resume! ??? I.e., all Jews living in Palestine-Israel are there illegally. No, this is just another way of saying "Let the slaughter resume!" It's better to address the immediate practical challenge, or crisis, of saving Palestinians from getting...

Why not Evacuation? Maybe. As long as this doesn't displace someone already there or already moving in there. Any location where they don't displace someone else. For a large number, there'd have to be more than only one location. It might have to be currently unoccupied space, in camps. It has...

Ashkelon is too close. Hamas already attacked there. Hamas has to be destroyed first. Or, rather, maybe a few thousand could be evacuated there, if it's likely Hamas wouldn't attack there again. But even so, the real number of evacuees would probably be too many, so other destinations are also...

There are 2 kinds of environmental activists: 1) Higher Carbon Tax the good environmentalists: Put the "blame" properly on all consumers of energy and make them pay the appropriate tax, to compensate for the environmental damage 2) Punish Producers, scapegoat corporations the bad...

Why not Evacuation? Here's one inconvenient fact being denied: that Palestinians could be evacuated. They can be very easily. To demand a "Cease-Fire" is unnecessary. Just send boats to the shore (E. Mediterranean) of Gaza and take all refugees away who want to leave. The lie is that there's...

Revised listing / ranking of reputed miracle-workers I'm adding another name to this list. This shows names of reputed miracle-workers and ranking them according to the volume of evidence supporting claims of their power to perform miracle acts. In any such ranking, Jesus is far up at the top...

The Need to Bash China (continued from previous Wall of Text) "repression" where? only in China? There's no other repression anywhere to look at? Is the U.S. supposed to impose punishments or sanctions onto everyone in the world guilty of some "repression"? Where is there not "repression"...

No, a more important question is: Do White cops routinely pull over Black drivers and say something like "What is your kind doing in this neighborhood?" Maybe I'm naive to have believed this video was real, and everyone immediately recognizes that it's fake, from the first 5 seconds. But it...
