The situation in Rafah is tragic and inhumane. Herding people like cattle into, essentially, city size pens and then bombing them until they either stampede into Egypt or perish is the crime of the century.
With the welcome collapse of the M-She-U, I'd like to make two simple suggestions to Hollywood on how it could save the industry.
Why do you think Biden (et al) are so desperate to get more of our money to a failed proxy war in Ukraine? Think it might be the 10% for the big guy? I also heard much of the money comes back to DC to fund the Ukraine lobby, and therefore our representatives. Sounds about right. It is a similar phenomenon in Gaza with the Zionist literally owning the US government. Add in the utter incompetence of our administration from the top down. So here we are mired in unnecessary conflicts with no foreseeable escape. I thought Larry did a good job describing our predicament.

Afternoon folks!
This week there's a great B.B. King album followed by lesser-known New Orleans blues guitarist Walter "Wolfman" Washington. Blues-rock follows that with Blind Owl Wilson from Canned Heat, a nice compilation from Johnny Kid & The Pirates and an album from Steppenwolf. The diversity this week is Stomu Yamash'ta's East Wind with the Freedom Is Frightening album.
Have a great weekend and enjoy!

Another opportunity to practice the skills you have been acquiring to notice the methods being applied to shape opinions and emotions about an event. Alexei Navalny has died from a blood clot while serving his sentence in a Russian penal colony.
