It is two rogue nations at war, with a third cheering it on and assisting in the destruction.

These are outlaw nations, the US and Iran. They are two peas in a pod. Israel would like to have supreme power over the entire region and Iran is their main obstacle. By whatever method they used, they were able to get Donald Trump to do their dirty work for them.

Unfortunately, they are dragging the rest of the world into their turf struggles. Other nations are dependent on the resources, primarily oil, from that region. Trump badmouthed the allies since day one in office and now he wants their help? America, What a chicken shit leader you have!

But, there are those politicians in Washington that call themselves "Republicans" but they are not for the Republic. They are for a supreme leader. One person that knows more than all the people, and all their representatives, combined. Really a sick and dangerous political philosophy.

Now we are stuck in a war. We have created hatred and animosity toward our country that will linger for decades. Thanks to the supreme leader of America. Thanks to the Republicans. They have served up a big shit sandwich with no bread.

The Civil Rights Act in 1965 and the inclusion of Religion into politics by Jerry Falwell and his Moral Majority in 1979 changed this nation forever. It gets worse by the year.

At some point the zombie voters of the US have to gather the strength to stand up for what is right and no longer let the talking heads convince them of some "Grand Illusion" that does not exist and never did.
