Blog Update



5 months of this blog now. I am surprised I have kept cobbling together little essays about topics that interest me.

This past month the primary audience has been from the USA, Canada, Russia and France, but there have been views from other countries also. The most popular blog items this past month were:

How the Fight Started, Part 5



My wife sat down next to me as I was flipping channels.

 


She asked, "What's on TV?"

I said, "Dust."

And then the fight started...

The Man Vs. Iran



We recently discussed the suggestion that the Trump travel ban on seven countries is part of a war plan (http://gordon-feil-history-observations.blogspot.ca/2017/03/biggest-threat-to-world-peace.html). There is more than that to suggest that war is on someone’s mind.
Iran has abandoned the dollar.
Then, Flynn, the National Security Advisor to President Trump, and who has been characterized as a “rabid anti-Iran warmonger,” straight away put Iran “on notice.”
It seems like a rerun of history. Some of you reading this may recall the 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident or the 1898 Maine case. The Maine was a boat that was involved in an event that gave the USA “justification” to declare war on Spain.
Currently we have a similar instance. In Yemen is a religious-political movement known as Houthis.  Some Houthi rebels attacked a Saudi naval vessel. To the USA, this was Iran attacking a U.S. Navy boat, and THAT is justification for war, ain’t it y’all?
Gotta have those wars. Keep the public’s “mind” off the Administration’s other nonsense.
