Germany’s Economic Resilience in Check

A brief comment Developing economic resilience can only get you so far; what is also needed is developing political engagement and promoting / respecting international law globally because there is no such thing as geopolitical barriers; thats the blindside cause without order all bets are pretty much off. Quite an […]

The Moment for Political Courage

For some it’s about empty statements and getting “sophisticated / technical”; in other words you buy a flashy yet empty clean as a whistle box. For others however it much simpler than that; its about going back to basics and naming things for what they are. In layman terms its […]

Israel & the Question of “Values”?

Well, we’ve seen genocide against civilians and now even religious symbols are also being destroyed, but of course that’s not say religious structures and personnel – including christians – have not been in the firing line and open to abuse for decades; this is not new. What is new is […]

The Lucrative Business of Conflict

Insider Trading, Military Industrial Complex/Lucrative Arms Deals, Suspect Political Allegiances/Corruption, Weaponisation of AI, Democracy/Free Speech Hijacked, International Law Trashed, Genocide; All part of a lucrative mix for some and a disastrous journey for everyone else including those complaining on the “cloud” in a political/social war that cannot be fought on […]

French Proposed Bill Withdrawn Ahead of Debate

 Here is the deal; consider if you will 3 little nuggets; forgetting the mideast conflict entirely, imagine this intervention being in respect to Russia (cause they’re both political positions and have absolutely nothing to do with religious beliefs or protections, as to their credit many jews recognise) and a […]

The Promised Land Doesn’t Look So Promising Anymore

Truly sad to see Americans in this predicament but sadly it proves 3 things in my opinion; a) political choices within a rigged political system eventually end up as own goal irrespective of ideology b) feeding into the concept of divide-and-rule (the goto model for autocratic regimes) translates to disinformation/distorted […]

Iran War: France is Moving Ahead (and not standing still)

Seems quite a pragmatic approach in dealing with blowback from mideast instability; Re-calibrate energy strategy by minimizing reliance on foreign energy sources based on fossil fuels in favor of electric & renewable energy with specific short-long term objectives. Continue development of defensive capabilities whether military, cyber security or otherwise. Sustained […]

Iran War: Self-Defence, who are you kidding?

I guess the salient point of the clip is what is now considered conventional wisdom in corrupt politics but here a little twist; Trace the Money to uncover the shared “Values” (it really isn’t complicated but we’re constantly being gaslighted to believe it is…). And by the way how did […]

Questions of Religion

I’ve always thought of religion as a personal relation between an individual and what he/she perceives as “God” but what matters most – in my opinion – is NOT the scripture, and/or religious rituals/practices or even dress code; these all to me are immaterial/irrelevant. What really matter is a persons  […]

Music Break: Do You Do the Frug?

This is one of those clips that demonstrates a multitude of talent; from brilliant choreography/facial expressions to superb camera movements but begins with fantastic music and from there everything else cleverly blends in. As much as I love music as an amateur trumpet player, I love watching great choreography which […]

Trump, the Embarrassing Clown

 I must admit, this guy has the moves; in other words he can move “period”. You know who I feel sorry for in this clip; the officers standing behind watching this embarrassment unfold while posturing for respect probably thinking (is this really our leader?). Truly sad for America….

Combating Racism

I read many posts on social media about racism directed towards specific groups, be it cultural, religious or other groups and/or minorities. Of course this is important to know in order to defend these groups. But it would be super helpful for individuals/groups making these posts to add a single […]

Iran War: “God won’t listen to war leaders” – But the good news is the “Sitting ducks” are watching them

Wars that are slowly being given a religious bent – mainly due failures of achieving stated objective thus far – waged by those who understand/practice precious little in the way of basic religion/faith. This instability coupled by the one involving consequential states in the region with fragile economies that are […]

Iran War: The NATO Clown is Back in Town

This guy is truly a clown (a sophisticated/sleek one) but on the other hand quite an obvious incarnation; hypes theories that conflict with realities, provides narratives that reflect ignorance / supremacist / colonialist vision when dealing with conflicts less based on values and more based on double standards, and finally […]

Palestine: Mideast Analysis/Paralysis

Great analysis in this clip. The problem is that we’re at a point/time where action to save lives is more urgent than analysis and matters of history. The way I feel is that there should be a firm international intervention – would be great if led my country’s in the […]

Palestine: Francesca Albanese’s UN Report (in the words of the victims) & My Brief Take – Viewer Discretion is advised

Nothing is unclear about the realities of Palestinian suffering or controversial  about Francesca Albanese statements and reports. If wester leaders/states – who are already implicated big time whether they choose to remain silent or decide to act now – have any doubts whatsoever about the realities in the reports presented […]

Palestine: The Right to Exist

I never knew how dumb this question actually is until I watched Francesca Albanese respond to it so effectively. I guess when you hear something so often you begin to accept it without even thinking about it. In other words this question actually raises yet another question of the right […]
