History is something you have no clue of. You deny and ignore Jewish history on this thread because it does not suit your subjective political biases. Save me the horseshit posing yourself as an expert on history.

Perhaps the desk behind this pathetic recycled crap can try something new.

What does that comment mean. Why does his being American make his comment less valid? Other than showing you are a bigot what have you proven. I love it. You presumptious leftist snots come on this board engaging in bigotry posing it as if you are some superior moral creature. You are pathetic for saying the above. As long as you insult Jews, Israelis or Americans all is well right? You are a bigot.

I think you have proven it goes on forever in some cases.

You need to know when to walk away from your bullshit. Nothing you said dettracts from your being wrong about him being a Zionist.

You clearly have a repeating behavioural manifestation which compels you to try dictate to Jews where our place is and to deny our history. Bottom line who the phack cares what you think. Where do you get off coming on this forum talking down to Jews, telling us where our place is and referring to yourself as some infallible unquestionable authority on Jews? Hmmm? Can you go a day...a minute...without coming on this forum compelled to patronize, insult and talk down to we Jews telling us our place? The fact is you are as usual wrong, and your error is based on your deliberate ignorance as to Jewish history and attempts to deny it and patronize Jews and engage in this pathetic role play that you can tell us who we are and where we come from. In fact, the spiritual centre of we Jewish people since c. 1000 BCE, (when David the King of Israel first established it as the capital of the Jewish Nation, and his son Solomon commissioned the building of the First Temple in the city, Jerusalem has been our capital. Long before Muslims or Christians came about, and long before you were born and grew into the person you are today compelled to tell Jews who we are and where we belong. What you think means sweet phack all. Your bigoted, patronizing blow-hard pronouncements of righteousness are meaningless. In fact there is archeological evidence, i.e., ceramics that confirm the occupation of Ophel, within present-day Jerusalem, as far back as the Copper Age, c. 4th millennium BCE, with evidence of a permanent settlement during the early Bronze Age, c. 3000–2800 BCE. There are as well the Execration Texts (c. 19th century BCE), which refer to a city called Roshlamem or Rosh-ramen. There are also the Amarna letters (c. 14th century BCE) which refer to Jerusalem. The fact is history is not defined by your pronouncements and clear and open bias against Jews and our history. What you think of Jews and Jerusalem means sweet phack all. According to our Jewish tradition and history which you of course would never acknowledge, Jerusalem was founded by Shem and Eber, ancestors of Abraham. In the Bible, Jerusalem is first referred to as "Salem" and was ruled by Melchizedek, an ally of Abraham. Then after that, during the lifetime of Joshua, Jerusalem was in a larger area of land allocated to the tribe of Benjamin (Joshua 18:28) andcontinued under the independent control of the Jebusites until it was then conquered by David and made into the capital of the united Kingdom of Israel (c. 1000s BCE). No one disputes that historic time line. No one not Muslims, Christians, anyone disputes that King David reigned until 970 BCE abd then was succeeded by his son Solomon, who then built the Holy Temple on Mount Moriah. No one disputes that during the time period referred to as the "First Temple Period", Jerusalem was in fact the political capital of Israel and then Judah and the Temple was the religious center of the Israelites. No one disputes that in fact The First Temple period ended around 586 BCE, when theBabylonian ruler, Nebuchadnezzar II laid destroyed Solomon's Temple, andt ook large numbers of Jews into captive slavery after a failed uprising against him. No one disputes that in 538 BCE, fifty years after Nebuchadnezzar, King Cyrus the Great of Person allowed Jews to return to Judah to rebuild the Temple resulting in its second existence in 516 BCE, referred to as the era during the reign of Darius the Great, seventy years after the destruction of the First Temple. No one disputes Jerusalem and Judea then fell under Macedonian control, which then fell to Ptolemy I who in 198 BCE, lost Jerusalem and Judea to the Seleucids under Antiochus III. leading to yet another revolt by the Jews in168 BCE with the successful Maccabean revolt of Mattathias the High Priest and his five sons against Antiochus Epiphanes, and their establishment of the Hasmonean Kingdom in 152 BCE with Jerusalem again as its capital. No one then disputes the Romans then marched in conquering it and placing Herod as a Jewish puppet King of the Romans who in fact bulilt up the Temple Mount, doubling its size. No one denies that In 6 CE, Jerusalem came under direct Roman rule while Herod's descendants down through to Agrippa II remained puppet Jewish kings of Judea until 96 CE when.Emperor Hadrian then decidedto rename Jerusalem Aelia Capitolina and banned the Jews from entering it. Hadrian also renamed all of Judea Syria Palaestina after the biblical Philistines in an attempt to de-Judaize the country. Enforcement of the ban on Jews entering Aelia Capitolina continued until the 4th century CE. No one denies that until the 7th century CE the city repeatedly changed hands between the Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, and the Sassanid Empire and that in 638 the Islamic Caliphate extended its dominion to Jerusalem, which is considered Islam's third holiest city after Mecca and Medina and in fact with the Arab conquest, Jews were allowed back into the city and until the Crusades Jerusalem remained under Arab control. No one denies the continued Jewish presence in ALL of Jerusalem through all of the above and then from the above times all the way to the present tense. To pretend Jews have never lived or have been in East Jerusalem or have a right to live there is bull shit. They have lived in every square inch of Jerusalem since the above times. Oh but we have someone with an anti Jewish agenda who wants to tell we Jews what our history is and where we come from and tell us where we should live. His name is what, Emperor GhostHacked or is it the Prophet Ghosthacked, or is it the Feurher GhostHacked, what title does he want? Holy Ghost? Oh wait how about His Eminence Ghost the Always Right Dictator of DAajhooz Existence. Ghost Hacked shut the phack up. Shut the phack up with your claims of righteousness and presumptions of telling me or any Jew what our identity is or where we come from. You want to be ignorant and deny our history, do it- but don't you phackin tell me or any Jew where we come from or what our connection is to Jerusalem- ditch your patronizing, elitist, presumptuous holier then thou act with me and any Jew. Save it. You don't come on this forum and dictate to Muslims or Christians or anyone else-just Jooz? Why? What is it that compels you time and time again to think you can dictate to Jews what we are, where we came from? What compels you to spew your patronizing crap? Hmmmm? Here is the point. This thread is being used to piss on we Jews for being from Jerusalem, for having a history attacked to Judea, Somaria, Israel, Palestine and Jerusalem. This is a thread being used as a pathetic flimsy attempt to spit and piss at we Jews for existing and daring to acknowledge let alone point out where we come from. How dare we presume to tell His Highest Righteous Gentile Prophet of the Gentiles, Ghost of the Joodeniers where we were born and originate from. Its wrong. How dare we point out our history. We are wrong. Oh phack your denial. Phack your constant pissing on Jews. The fact is Jews have lived in and have a right to every damn square inch of Jerusalem and for that matter as I have stated many times, so do Christians and Muslims. All three can rightfully say they have religious, historic, archeological roots to Jerusalem. Onlyh Ghost and a handful of pathetic Muslim extremists on this board would try use this trilateral historic fact as a platform to try incite hatred against Jews. The fact is NOTHING stops Muslims from recognizing Jewish or Christian historic rites in Jerusalem. They refuse because in Sharia law they are taught no non Muslim can own land or presume to have equal legal rights to land let alone any other legal rights as a Muslim can. Until that basic precept of Islam changes, Muslims will continue to blindly follow sharia law expressed through Muslim extremist political expressions through Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the PA, Fatah, PFLP, Al Quaeda, Hezbollah, and will continue their war against Jews for not just living in Jerusalem but ALL of Israel. This is not about where the capital of Jerusalem is. This is about Jews defying sharia law and declaring they have the right to their own state and title to lands. This is about Jews who do not know their place and need to be told by of course among others, the Lord of Joodeeneyerz, Ghost , All Righteous High Priest of the Noyerplayzjooz Sect of what is it Ghostic Islam. Who do you speak for Ghost... oh wait, I know, you speak for everyone including we JOOOZ not to mention God. I say to Ghost and any other pisser of Jooz on this thread-in a peaceful world, all religions can be accepted and accommodated. The fact Jerusalem has ALWAYS been the centre of Jewish existence does not mean Israel or Jews have a problem with Christian or Muslim access to Jerusalem and using it for what they want as well. As we speak the Muslim political representatives continue to refuse to recognize Jewish rights in Jerusalem. Christian and Jewish leaders recognize each other's rights and Muslim rights already. This thread is a crock of shit. The fact Israel is Jewish did NOT stop the Bahaiis from building their world headquarters in Haifa, Israel.

I try ignore your ignorance. Anyone can go on the internet though and find out for themselves. Soros is not a Jew. In fact he comes from a family of Hungarian Jews that denounced their Jewish identity and changed their name. You fabricate. You invent as you go along. George Soros is anything but a Zionist, in fact the exact opposite: http://www.bnaibrith.ca/jewish_billionaire_george_soros_funds_groups_that_support_boycotts_of_israel https://www.algemeiner.com/2016/09/28/george-soros-israel-hatred-spills-out-into-the-open/ https://www.dailywire.com/news/8427/9-things-you-need-know-about-george-soros-aaron-bandler You again show not only how full of shit you are but how you take a supposed issue about whether a sovereign state can choose where its capital is to turn it into attacks on all Jews.

Taxme I do not know the Rothchilds or the Illuminati. Lol do not start with me but I know the shapeshifters. Beware. Your real issue is with people with scaly skin my friend. Black or brown skin or the size of their nose is the least of your problems. They eat human flesh-any colour.

Well according to my sources on the internet, BOTH Oprah and Donald were killed and replaced by Illuminati clone hybrid draco shapeshifters. http://brobible.com/life/article/donald-trump-killed-illuminati-clone-family/

How about left wing extremists? Your selectivity in only singling out the "right wing", I would argue shows you in fact are engaging in a deliberate selective conceptualization that extremists are only right wing. Bull shit to that selectivity process. In fact I would argue your very words evidence YOUR leftist extremist stereotyping. Viva Che.

No one suggested what you did. Your words aboove in my opinion evidence you project your own stereotypical bigoted hateful concepts on others. They reflect your thinking stereotyping and slurring of others supposed beliefs. They are your projections. They begin and end with your cognitive processing no one else's. To be clear you produce on this board self explanatory hateful bigoted slurs about Jews, Westerners, non Muslims. Your words in my opinion evidence the hatred of someone with an extremist agenda to use this board to propagate hateful Muslim extremist ideology. I directly challenge your attempt to slur others with hateful stereotypes.

Impact you are right in that I have no proof who made this up the kid or her mother. I do not. I am guessing its the mother without proof only because I think this is too elaborate for two kids to have made up and reminds me of the "Clock Boy" Incident. However I make no claim to a definite conclusion without proper facts but I do want to remind people of the clock boy incident. A few years back in the USA, in Texas, Ahmed Mohamed brought to school what he claimed was a clock he made and wanted to show off. The teacher though it was a bomb as it looked like one and the police were called. The media portrayed Ahmed as a victim of Islamophobia. It was in fact later discovered that the incident was orchestrated by the boy’s father, and that same father ALSO had his daughter do the same exact thing with a similar outcome. This father of Ahmed tried both times to sue the school for thousands of dollars. Like Justin Trudeau, President Barack Obama took to Twitter to praise Ahmed for his work and invited him to the White House, but later when he found out the father invented these incidents, Obama said nothing just like Trudeau, Wynne and Mayor Tory now are all silent. Ahmed and his family when exposed took off to Qatar where they are guests of the state now. Just as Wynne, Trudeau and Tory used it to push a narrative against hatred they now have the same obligation to condemn false reporting to police and they won't because they are political cowards. Now what I have read is well, its an 11 year old, girls lie. They don't understand the consequences of lying. Excuse me but I have a problem. I have a problem with how the mother did not question her daughter and never thought how did scissors cut through a winter hood and never cut that winter hood that was on but did manage to cut through the hijab but leave no cut or bruise on the girl's head. Why was the boy smiling and laughing at the press conference? Who rehearsed the boy (brother) because if we believe the sister lied, why is it the brother lied as well? If you believe only the girl lied, then you believe she coached her brother how to lie as well. I call bullshit. I don't know 11 year olds who create attack stories and get young brothers to elaborate quite clearly as to the attack. Sorry. Twenty years cross examining kids and they don't coach other kids let alone make up attack stories. They make up stories but being attacked stories? In my humble exposure of twenty years kids invent, exaggerate, but not with stories of being attacked.. So it did not surprise me the story told was an attack. That was my red flag. To get a kid to repeat an attack story with no violence means it would be easier for the kid to talk about it. When kids are genuinely attacked the last thing they do is talk, they turn in-word and withdraw and they won't speak about what happened. If they do it only comes out because their mother or father notices something wrong with them or perhaps the teacher. If it was a genuine attack on a child, the profile reaction of a parent is to go to the police but be very afraid to go to the press for fear the attacker would be made angry and come back. 20 years with assault victims I have never seen ONE who wants to talk to the press or police. If anything they have to be coaxed. In this case the very statement of the child was a red flag for me. She didn't use trauma words victims usually use. Usually trauma victims say little. They cry, and they simply say I thought I was going to die, or I was frightened, not much else. In this story, the girl was quite elaborate in explaining two attack incidents without once crying or losing control emotionally or shaking or getting teary eyed-it was in fact very flat in enunciation so unless this girl is a sociopath or autistic that did not make sense-the flatness. The boy's smiling and laughing was not the profile of a terrified and traumatized boy-it was the profile of a kid enjoying the attention. The press has speculated the girl had no idea this would go viral and snow ball as it did. Maybe she had no idea it would go viral on the internet however her mother was asked and agreed to bring her kids to a press conference and the mother got involved directly. In cases where I have seen a child attacked I just don't ever remember parents wanting their kids in front of a camera or speaking to anyone or even letting them talk. This is why for me it seemed rehearsed by the mother. I watched her body language and I saw some physical gestures and pushing or what we call non verbal cuing. So Impact I admit I have no hard proof but my years of working in the court system radar went off. Yes I could be totally wrong and I admit that but I wanted you to know why I aint buying it or quick to blame the girl. I don't want Muslims blamed for this either. Not my intent. My intent is to suggest our politicians used this event in a crass manner for a political platform. Any politician when dealing with hatred in my opinion should not pose with a line up of politicians as Trudeau did making it a photo event. A very precise message in a press release is all that is needed and should be done. You don't want too much attention brough to the bad behaviour and you want to avoid turning the condemnation into a patronage pandering session. I have the same problem with what Trudeau did no different than when he posed with the Olympic athletes chosen to carry the Canadian flag for the olympics coming up. Why was Trudeau there hogging the lime light? Enough with his photo ops. He and Tory and Wynne now have a moral obligation to point out false police reporting of crimes is not acceptable behaviour and must be called out. I believe this matter is now being covered up for fear of political back-lash but I think the mother should be investigated and if she is found to have put her children up to this as a political exercise no different than the clock boy's father, we need to know and the children are in danger of being used as political pawns and this constitutes child abuse.

I said it was my guess. I guess that because unlike you I don't assume what you did. When two not one child makes up a lie it requires coordination. You seem to forget the lie came equally from both the girl and her brother. The language in the press interview to me sounded like it was rehearsed and planned ahead of time. I have worked in the court system with children for twenty years. Its very rare they make up attack stories and if they do its because there is something underlying they need help with and were afraid to ask for help with. This alleged attack stinks to high heaven of manipulation went wrong. Now so you get your facts straightI made up no story. I expressed a clear guess. I never posed what I said as fact. You are the one with the agenda to blame this on the 11 YEAR OLD WITH NO PROOF SHE INITIATED THE LIE. Its been my experience when they make up assault lies something else with an adult has gone on. No 11 year olds and young boys don't create attack stories. They might make up she said he said false quotes but not stranger attacks. This notion you have its normal for 11 year old girls to lie is a crock of shit. I am sure in the days to come the media might find you the info you want on the mother. While you are at it go find out where the father is.

No Doggie only Lisa LaFlamme of CTV which is of course a Drag Queen name because Lisa is really Lawrence. The only powers they have at the CBC are manifested by Don Cherry. He is the remaining source of veracity from that stink hole.

Agreed. This is bad because it makes legitimate victims reluctant to speak out. My guess is the mother put her up to it. The mother is a long time right wing Muslim activist. The words the child used were rehearsed ans not typical of an 11 year old.. As well the boy (broiter) was laughing throughout the press conference. How would scissors cut through a winter-hood which she said she was wearing to cut her covering not once but twice. Asian with a mustache? Uh hello. How many of you know a South Korean, Japanese, Chinese, even Filippino with a mustache? Muslims yes. Mustaches without other hair are not typical of Asians or even white guys these days. Used to be every cop and gay guy had one as well as baseball pitchers. They are pretty rare today unless its an old geezer and rare with Asians. Oh but wait I am stereotyping. No profiling. Asking questions. How the hell does an Asian man use scissors that cut through a hood but not someone's scalp? Yabba Dabba Doo.

No not at all. Duffy lied about where he lived to get around a loop-hole so he could qualify as a Senator for PEI. He also engaged in behaviour about spending taxpayer's money on himself. Beyak on the other hand is not under scrutiny for spending habits or lying where she lives but as to what she has said-specifically words she knows single out and assign a negative spin on ALL aboriginal peoples-words she would never say as an elected official-words she knew would cause hurt-words that escalated what she said and was already told to avoid by the Tory party-she deliberately escalated her language and references about ALL aboriginals in a sign of deliberate contempt and challenge to being told by the Tory caucus to cool it. She doesn't give a damn about anything but her own ego and opinions. She wasn't placed in Senate to voice her own personal opinions and this is precisely why the Senate should be abolished. We have these bloated bovine full of themselves and imagining they have importance and they have a platform to say whatever they want-it is precisely because they are not elected and accountable to the public but live off the public's money and do nothing but ceremonial crap they should shut their fat patronage mouths. You want to be a patronage puppet shut your fat mouth. You want to engage in partisan political comments, get your fat buttox out of the senate and run for elected office-yah like Beyak could run with that fat carcass and her head shoved up her buttox.

Absolutely which is why she had to go. She is a bloated bovine parasite the last thing the Tories need to distract from his Highness Lord Justin of Trudeau.

Beyak is a classic example of why we do not need a Senate. She wouldn't dare say what she did if she had to be elected. Scheer does not need to explain himself. Her words speak for themselves.

The topic is supposed to be about Jerusalem. You will notice once again Marcus uses it as a platform, a pretext, an excuse, to attack Jews and engage in comments that insult ALL Jews and have nothing to do with the Jerusalem issue. This individual engages in blatant and classic anti-semitism. He uses a conflict between the Israeli government and Palestinian terrorist groups and the PA as an excuse to insult Jewish victims of Nazism. Its pathetic and it of course attracts more participants like Taxme who like Marcus and Hudson Jones et al, engage in comments about all Jews in a way that assigns all Jews negative characteristics. The exercise of invoking the word JEWS then assigning all Jews the same description as Marcus has done to then engag ein holocaust inversion, i.e., accusing them of being Nazis is anti-semitic. Marcus does not discuss the issue. He calls Jews Nazis. That is what makes his words anti-semitic. He like Taxme are no victims. They are pathetic bigots using this forum to ferment hatred between not just Palestinians and Israelis but all people against Jews. Its a pathetic attempt to exploit Palestinians as a cover to hate Jews. Marcus uses Palestinians to ferment hatred against Jews, no more, no less.

What is international law. You again spew horseshit. What specific treaty do you claim Israel signed that it has violated. Do you even know? Of course not. This forum simply serves for you to spew shit about Israel with no specifics.

Eyeball your selective take on history on this forum speaks for itself. You are in no position to challenge the historic veracity of the comments of the Porch Dog when you have repeatedly produced false and incorrect interpretations and recitations of actual historic events. Next, if you have an actual point an actual item you think Porch of the Dog misrepresented, state it and state why its false. You can not and never have. You rely instead on name calling. Its what you do. When you have no proof of allegations, you spew subjective insults. Go on produce the historic event he misrepresented. You can't and won't. You engage in partisan arguments. Your silence as to how such threads are used to smeer ALL Israelis and attribute them all with the same thoughts and values speaks loudly. You join such threads as a chear-leader for hateful comments. Get back to me with a specific issue and point. Until then run along and spit at Jews with Marcus and Hudson.

One again the thread was supposed to be about Israel not 'wanting" a sovereign Palestinian state. The initial thread of course assumed to know what ALL Israelis believe an din fact demonstrated yet again this thread was initiated to stereotype and assign negative beliefs to all Israelis and not distinguish between Israelis and Jews and lump them in one negative category. The above responder continues this idiotic thread smearing every Israeli and engaging again in negative stereotypes to incite hatred against ALL Israelis using the often used attempt at raising anger, resentment and negative feelings by trying to exploit the content of a video. This is the kind of shit that rendered this political forum obsolete. Such stereotypings and generalizations don't present debate of an actual political issue, they simply contain hate messages. On this forum and these kinds of threads, if the word Israel or Israeli appears anywhere in the thread or words, anything is considered acceptable. Now if I came on this forum and said Muslim society is sick. Iranian society is sick. Iraqi society is sick. African society is sick. Japanese society is sick. And showed videos and then made generalizations what would the response be? Well if it would be about Iran, or Iraq or any Muslim country the very same propagators passing off this crap as debate would cry out Islamophobia. If it smeered Africans it would be caused racist. If its used to smeer all Israelis or Westerners, its considered acceptable leftist progressive discussion. For me its bigoted, hateful crap. Its not designed to discuss alternatives to conflict, suggest constructive solutions for peace-its designed to hate and promote hatred.

Trump is a lot of things but to question whether he is mentally fit is political patronage b.s. I listened on public radio to the Psychiatrist from Yale who started this whole discussion and she quickly covered herself and said she never diagnosed or commented on Trump and was only discussing whether he triggers unhealthy reactions. She then said the press misquoted her study. All of us have symptoms of so called behavioural disorders. Trump like most if not all politicians could easily be defined as anti-social, narcissistic, even sociopathic. Most leaders have these traits-they wouldn't get to where they are without them. Justin Trudeau for example is the classic child of a mother with bi-polar disorder. He seeks to be an emotional caretaker of everyone just like he was for his mother believing he is responsible for their moods. He also manifests his father's bisexuality and inflated sense of intelligence. Trump is very easy to read. He comes from a classic dysfunctional family where the father was cold and distant and highly critical and no emotional expressions were given. High criticism and repressed feelings were the order of the day in his family upbringing. Ridicule was a way to challenge him to succeed. He lived isolated from the mainstream with a lot of pressure to make money with actually no formal training in business as much as he claims to be a business man. His business acumen as he likes to refer to it is non existent. He has no idea how to manage or invent. What he is, is someone born within an elite upper class lifestyle and told-here's a million-reproduce it or phack off. He had to mimmick. He mimmicked what he thought he saw his father do which was to take money and humiliate people with it and use the money as leverage to control. He fits the psyche of hundreds of thousands of men brought up in emotionally dysfunctional families. He's just a wind bag bully in layman's language and underneath his wind is someone easily frightened. Interestingly he does and will defer to authority if its in uniform, i.e., military just not civilian. He badly wants to be admired by his military which means contrary to what people believe he won't go off half cocked with them. He will talk tough but won't actually do anything unless he is fully backed by his military or has someone to blame if his puffing goes pffft. He is self destructive, ignorant, everything negative you can say, but there's more of a chance of Putin or Iran or that fat boy in North Korea starting a war. Where he might be dangerous is if there is some kind of terrorist attack in the US. He will for sure over-react to that and trigger a constitutional crisis. In the bigger picture Obama and the Clintons have done more damage than Trump can.

...and the above is called what kind of argument? Hmmm? Grow up.

The Russians as we now now know were threatening to use nukes on Israel and at one point a drunk Colonel ordered a nuke attack. It was the Americans we now know who as many as 3 times prevented nuke attacks on Israel back in the cold war era from the Russians. The US has never hidden its balancing act of having to try be strategic allies with Israel and the Saudi and Egyptians at the same time which at times in history was not easy. Right now Trump is back to an era where it does not appear the US will appease Iran anymore but the damage was done by Obama. When Obama pulled the US off the world stage as police officer in the Midle East, China stepped in to fill its void, replacing the US. China strategically set up simultaneous military alliances with Iran and Israel-in effect creating a stalemate between the two and preventing a war. China has a naval alliance with Israel that prevents Iran from attacking Israeli navy vessels at this time. Now me personally I believe the US needs to re-establish itself militarily in the Middle East. I think it was a mistake removing itself from the ME and thinking some half assed scheme of a Muslim Brotherhood alliance with Muslim Brotherhood members Barak Obama, his half brother in Sudan, Morsi in Egypt and that idiot Erdogan in Turkey was the way to best advance US interests in the ME. I think the Muslim Brotherhood proved it was a failure-a bunch of Muslim pseuto illuminati trying to create an elitist network to run the ME through a not so secret cabal. It failed as most idiot attempts like this do. When you recruit elitists drawn to your power network because of greed not idealism, it always implodes as the greedy stab each other in the back. What we see now is a skeleton of a US government. Obama cleared out anyone he felt was against his agenda. Trump has not replaced the void since Obama left at grass roots levels in the US government. He seems unable to lead and create networks of alliances or to enunciate a clear vision for the US. He appears unstable and unable to lead or create. He appears to be quite literally an isolated reactor via twitter while behind the scenes there is a huge power vacuum and we don't know who is planning to replace him. A year in a regime is a blip in time when preparing to replace it. What we do know is the entire Democratic Party structure has no clear leader and in the year or so to come the filth of the Clintons will come out in investigations concerning the Clinton Foundation, Hilary Clinton compromised by her Saudi Arabian spy advisor and all kinds of other filth. As for Trump, he clearly does not care to lead. His narcissism and short adhd attention deficit does not enable him to focus on detail and explains his inability to focus on any topic. I think in a year or so, a power network will emerge in the US and we shall see if people decide Pence is the person to replace Trump or whether there is a way to contro, Trump's irrational outbursts. Until then its a crap shoot. Iran faces a possible civil war and so does Turkey. For that matter Egypt is never far away from a food wa on the streets, and The Korean peninsula is volatile. Anything could trigger unintended consequences I personally think North Korea is not the huge war theatre many think its destined to be. I think it more probable we shall see more t errorist attacks in Europe and a European financial collapse threaten as the next major political destabilization issue than Iran or Korea. I think China is able to control Iran militarily just as the Russians have with Syria. Its Muslim extremists working in fragmented cells we have to watch for. They owe allegiance to no one but their own cells. They are unpredictable in origin, make-up and agenda. They evolve and disappear very quickly like sandstorms of the desert. They defy cycles of attack conventional intelligence used to be able to predict.
