I notice you mentioned General Flynn ; it's my intuitive hunch that Trump will chose Flynn as his VP for a number of reasons, primarily because he's about the only person the radical Dems and Deep State hate as much as Trump, so Flynn can be a kind of life insurance for Trump . Furthermore, I don't think the DEms will ever voluntarily hand over power to Trump . If they cannot disqualify him or rig those crucial six swing states, then they'll ''color revolution'' him like they did in Kiev in 2014 when they didn't like the way the election turned out . They'll call out the BLM mobs, reinforced by feral migrants , and besiege the White House , so TRump's first act as president could be to declare martial law and have General Flynn handle things from there

Yeah I think Flynn would be an outstanding pick for VP, Chief of Staff, Secretary of Defense or Secretary of State. I agree Biden would likely not voluntarily surrender power peacefully and he would probably attempt to use the US military to prevent a democratically re-elected President Trump from being sworn into office.

Flynn would not pass muster at the Senate for any of those ABC Agency jobs, and regardless the crisis is likely to come before January

Uh, Flynn was the individual that urged Trump to order a Navy SEAL strike that was FUBAR from jump street and ended with a dead little American girl and 9 of her little friends dead and a dead SEAL….and no useful intelligence was gathered. The SEAL’s father was justifiably livid especially when Trump started lying about the success of the strike.

Thanks David! Totally agree with everything you have posted here.

Just hope that common sense will prevail moving forward!

As the war in Gaza continues and the objective ( end game ) becomes muddied by the extreme loss of innocent lives, Israel is deepening it's divide of worldwide support in exchange for condemnation.

To enter into a winless war with Iran at this point in time, seems ridiculous and highly dangerous in my opinion. And our bright Western media has the wrong slant once again on the effectiveness on this latest barrage of drones and missile attack by Iran. They ( Iran) clearly have sent a message. Israel would be wise to re-group. ( Just look at the lopsided cost of what it took to shoot down these low- cost Drones! ) The logistical cost to Israel was a multi billion dollar effort and a massive loss of defense inventory ... on a pre-announced slow speed strike!

If it's war they want....they will get it.

And for us "Westerners" ....get ready for unbelievable gas prices and the availability of food, should the Iranians unload and overwhelm.

Bottom Line: It's time to get your spiritual house in order people. Wake up. Much of what is happening is out of our control despite how many protestors chain themselves to cement filled barrels. Their time would be better spent grocery shopping for essentials.

Yes its time for Americans to get right with our Lord and Savior because at the rate Biden is going, America's days may be numbered.

Isn’t it obvious by know that as long as Israel continues it’s genocidal tactics against an indigenous population in Gaza and continues its settler crimes in the West Bank all it serves is to create more people willing to do the work of Hamas. In fact, Israeli tactics are simply a Hamas recruiting tool. To say this isn’t more than obvious is disingenuous. Imagine the same happening in the US by an occupying force of 100x magnitude greater and the response of the average citizen and now say the exact same thing isn’t happening in Gaza.

As a chess analogy, Iran just captured Israel's Queen, therefore deterrence supremacy. In other words, Iran demonstrably has become an 'existential threat' to Israel. The balance of power in the Middle East has changed. This is a very scary moment.

Seems like just a matter of (short) time until one of the USA’s growing list of belligerents fires hypersonic missiles at our forces. We currently have no defense for these horrific weapons, which Russia apparently used with startling efficiency to recently knock out Ukrainian power plants. I read somewhere that Iran has access to them.

Yes Iran has nuclear capable Fattah hypersonic missiles which it has threatened to use against Israel if they attack Iran directly.

There's some evidence (inconclusive) that Iran "test fired" one at Israel in the Sunday barrage. That aside, Iran definitely has access to them. Scary.

Israel cannot live with nuclear Mullahs, so they are going to have to take a huge gambit and destroy the Iranian leadership with a nuclear coup de grace and thereby take the risk of Iranian retaliation with or without nuclear bombs . Iran is only going to get stronger so IMHO the sooner Israel strikes the better . Israel should leave Iran looking like Japan in 1945

I don't agree with this as the Gaza ''authorities '' are casual and habitual liars who routinely exaggerate the numbers of ''civilian casualties'' just like Dr Gobbles did in Germany in 1944-45 . They are trying to pass themselves off as victims instead of medieval-like ghouls ; moreover, Israel really is trying to deport them en masse from Gaza because they have concluded that they cannot live next to them anymore, and who can blame them ? . As such they are taking their time to make the population miserable and the ruins of Gaza unlivable so they can slowly push them out of Gaza and either into the Sinai or into the arms of any country stupid enough to take them in as ''refugees'' . It may take a year or two to finally get rid of this Gazan rabble but that's what Israel has resolved to do .They would have preferred to chase them out of the strip entirely under a hail of shellfire and bullets but the western media and governments were in spasms of hysteria over it, so they are now going to have to do it in more subtle ways

Time for the US and Israel to realise, that the rest of the world regards them as the dregs. The point was a vote at the UN GA on 19 Dec when only Nauru and Micronesia voted with them. Not even Palau and the Marshall Islands. Time for the US to cut supply was when the ICJ ruled the case for genocide plausible. Since then Israel is even starving the population of Gaza, like the Nazis did with Leningrad.

Israel now has to be aware: if it strikes back in any significance, then Iran and Hezbollah will degrade Israel sufficiently for the country to be finished. Apart from the physical damage, everybody with half a brain and not endangered by becoming caught up with the ICJ will be leaving the country.

The US should consider returning to acceptance of international law and abandon its "rules based order" crap. They also should consider sending some gifted students to Russian and Chinese universities where they teach something what is called "diplomacy". Having mentioned China: what is the point of having US soldiers on Kinmen, an island just ten miles or less off downtown Xiamen, a Chinese city of four million?

I don't agree that Israel is committing genocide as yet with their killing of 22,000 Palestinian civilians but I do agree it is a war crime that the US must act to stop by pressuring Israel to accept a permanent cease-fire and armistice agreement ending the war in Gaza. Yes, the US must abandon its attempts to expand its liberal empire into Ukraine and make peace with Russia as urgently as possible. The US should also leave NATO to ensure we don't come to blows with Russia again. There is no point to the US having 300 troops on three Taiwanese islands. They should be withdrawn immediately.

We are energy dominant thanks to Putin’s asinine invasion which is why Speaker Johnson switched his position. Natural gas from his district will power Europe for decades! Pretty amazing turn of events when Tillerson invested tens of billions into Qatar to export LNG to America around 2005! And Zelensky as the duly elected leader of a sovereign nation should get to decide when they cut a deal with Putin.

What genocide is concerned, I trust the professional judges of the ICJ, who think there is a plausible case (one judge thought, the court has no jurisdiction) . The figure of 22K civilians would imply that all adult males killed were with Hamas.

That is largely correct.
