With PBS’s great new documentary on the Global Spyware Scandal from Israel NSO Pegasus Malware, I hope now you realize how untrustworthy these despicable people are. How they manipulate people, invite you, just to steal your information, for evil do-ing. President Emmanuel Macron made it very clear, if you touch the phone of an European diplomat or government official, you do not just get a fine. You go DIRECTLY to jail. And you get sent back to Israel.

Don’t forget to read the Pegasus Project papers from The Guardian if you have not already. They (Israel’s NSO) are simply not to be trusted. They have made the lives of Journalists around the world a living nightmare. Especially when pointing out the horrific conditions of Palestinians living in a open-world cage in the Palestinian Territories, for more than 70 years as over hundreds of countries demand change, but countries like America say no, due to a few Zionist Illuminatis. Now, aren’t you glad we’re getting a third installment of Deus Ex? Time to continue investigating the Illuminatis.

Man! This weather has been intense! We were stranded in Oregon. Southwest made the mistake of cancelling thousands of flights because their pilots flew overtime and the weather was dangerous. Then we returned to California, but our flight from SFO to SMF was canceled. Had to drive a rental car during a thunderstorm back home. It was wild. We don’t get much rain in Central Valley California, so everybody is glad we’re getting some, especially because of the California Drought, but Jesus, this is intense.

I am very disappointed by the situation in Afghanistan. It appears that when it is “convenient” such as enriching the “Military-Industrial-Complex” that Sith Lord Dick Cheney (who is somehow still alive), people are gung-ho about the war effort, but lately, everybody is focused on the next war in Ukraine. It’s just so sad. If America rebuilt Germany & Japan after WW II, there is simply no excuse that they cannot rebuild Afghanistan. We have accomplished much more complicated things. We just sent Artemis to the Moon via NASA. It looks that we have created clean energy with Nuclear Fusion. You cannot weep about white Ukrainian women and children without weeping for brown Afghan women and children. Or else, it’s a double-standard. The Taliban are not that strong. They could easily be eradicated. I refuse to believe that the United States Military cannot come up with an innovative way to get rid of the Taliban. I’m sorry guys, but Afghanistan is indeed a “you break it you buy it” situation. Don’t forget about it. Thank God for Rubicon, “No One Left Behind”, the IRC, and other organizations who are helping Afghan refugees. Thank God for those who continue to do important work. There are many books about the conflict, including Operation Pineapple Express which is on my bookclub for the month of January 2023.
