What are you going to hear?

All lies and jest

Still a man hears what he wants to hear

And disregards the rest

Lyrics from The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel 1970

How often do you just ignore the waves of shit coming at you every day? I certainly do. I can’t watch the news on TV at all these days. By the end of the broadcast of lies and half truths, I’m hoarse from yelling.

All lies and jest indeed.

Trump bombing Iran just to get his little weeny hard is the least of Irans problems. Iran is already falling from within, much as the United States is now. As much as 50% of Irans population no longer identify as Muslim, and are ready for the dismantling of Sharia law. Trump should be impeached and removed from office, just as the Ayatollah should be replaced, because youth unemployment is 27%, inflation is at 45%, and women are jailed for not wearing a hijab and showing hair.

Draw as many parallels as you want between what is happening in Iran and the United States and they will all be true. We are just 10 or 15 years behind Iran in the disbelief of what is happening to our country. It is a waste of your time to bother listening to the major news outlets in this country. Please, find any other news source outside of what’s on your TV to seek out some truth. You owe it to yourself to be informed, and to inform others. Believe it when I say it’s only going to get worse.

I’ll leave you with an old Jewish joke that even I can’t find the humor in.

It has been said the during the Second World War, the pessimists went to New York, and the optimists went to Auschwitz.

If you pay attention, you’ll be able to hear the trains coming in the distance.
