The Failure was Predicted - Vox Popoli - (Which leaves only DaBoomers who learned everything they needed to know in 8th grade - and they're sticking to it! - CL)

 And not merely by armchair military historians like me, but by the intelligence analysts who were reporting directly to the White House:

.....The Pax Americana is over. And rightly or wrongly, mostly wrongly since he wasn’t responsible for all of the historical factors, Trump will get the historical blame for it since it happened both on his watch and as a direct result of his actions.

Even the neocons are now openly admitting the complete catastrophe of their 30-year “bomb Iran” campaign, as Robert Kagan’s new article in The Atlantic demonstrates:

For years, Iran confronted a balance of power in the Middle East that tilted against it. The region was dominated by a hostile American superpower, a nuclear-armed and militarily superior Israel, and significant local actors—Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates—that were strategically and economically aligned with the United States. Today finds Iran in entirely new circumstances. It has gone head-to-head with the superpower and Israel, withstood a pounding from their most advanced weapons, and more than survived. As a result, Iran has, with American help, completely reconfigured the power structure of the Middle East and the Persian Gulf. The dominant power in the region going forward will be Iran, not the U.S. or Israel. Neighboring countries are already making their adjustments to this new reality. More distant powers will too. For years, the world has been dealing with an Iran constrained. It will now discover what Iran unleashed looks like.

Never Fear Mistakes - by Vox Day - Sigma Game - Corrections are opportunities for improvement

 It’s entirely normal to fear criticism and correction. Most people do. Women, in their fear of accountability, and Gammas, in defense of their delusion bubbles, particularly hate being either criticized or corrected.

Which, of course, is why they tend to remain mired in mediocrity.

John Harbaugh, formerly the head coach of the Baltimore Ravens, and now the head coach of the New York Giants, said that one of the reasons his Hall of Fame linebacker Ray Lewis was so great was because Lewis demanded constant coaching from Harbaugh even though he was getting things 98 percent right compared to 80 percent for the average player. Harbaugh said Lewis worked harder on improving that final two percent than most players worked on improving the twenty percent they were missing.

The reason I mention this is that I learned this week how I made a moderately serious mistake in a bestselling book that I wrote earlier this year......

Yes, There Is DNA from Aborted Fetal Tissue in the Measles Vaccine - Billions of fragments, in fact

 Robert F. Kennedy Jr@RobertKennedyJr

At his press conference today, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro accused me of promoting conspiracy theories because I told him, during an earlier telephone conversation, that some Americans had religious objections to the MMR vaccine because it contained fetal tissue. “There is

RFK Jr. is correct. The fact is, there are billions of fragments of human cellular debris and DNA from the cultured cell line of an aborted fetus in every injected dose of MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), chicken pox, and hepatitis A vaccines.

Because viruses multiply in cells, living cells are used to grow viruses for vaccine production, including the cultured cell lines of aborted fetuses. Two such cell lines are MRC-5 and WI-38, which are described by a company that sells them as follows:

Jewish woman praises WWII Germans! SS man singled out as a true gentleman – The Occidental Observer

 Book review. Gone to Ground: One Woman’s Extraordinary Account of Survival in the Heart of Nazi German

Marie Jalowicz Simon. 2014

Marie Jalowicz Simon survived WWII as a Jew in Berlin. From 1942 she was illegal, but survived . She was helped by hundreds of Germans. Thousands knew about her. Nobody snitched

She is full of praise for the Germans who helped her. She names her managers at her forced labour job at Siemens and praises them to the skies. She names various SS, SA and other enthusiastically anti-Semitic people who helped her, because she was obviously just a Little Jew, not one of those nasty Big Jews that everybody loves to hate.

She came to a realization that might be useful in stopping the current Israeli slaughter. Is there some way to transmit this message to the Israeli population about the general Little Jew population over the world? It might help reduce the persecution mania.

I realized that the same Aryan Germans who hated the rich Jew from the big house like poison…had nothing against starving young girls who worked hard, just as he did himself.

This story could be made into a superb TV comedy. It is a wonderful antidote to the horrific allegations of widespread German cruelty towards the Jews.

Marie is by her own account, mostly kosher, mildly Zionist and enthusiastically communist. Praising goys is forbidden by the Jewish religion. Even accepting a favour from a non-Jew invokes a blessing on the non-Jew and therefore should be avoided. The socialist and Zionist will also object to the praise of Germans.

If NASA Went to the Moon Six Times. Why Is Going Back So Difficult - (Did we forget how to do it? - CL)

 I do not believe these claimed lunar landings occurred as NASA presented them. In my book Fake Moon Landings and the Lies of NASA, I examine numerous aspects of the Apollo story that I believe seriously undermine the official account.

But there is another question that has become increasingly difficult to ignore.

If the United States really possessed a reliable capability to land human beings on the Moon more than half a century ago, why has returning there proved so extraordinarily difficult?

Six Moon Landings — Then Nothing for More Than Half a Century.......

.....Imagine if commercial aviation had reached the jet age and then stopped crossing oceans for fifty years while engineers attempted to rediscover how to do it. We would reasonably ask what had happened.

Feeling the Roots of Binary Thinking - by John Samson -(But how can a binary thinker comprehend what he cannot comprehend? - CL)

 Binary thinking is a problem because it totally misunderstands anything that isn’t a simple either/or. But assessing actual situations and their implications is processing information. Calculating possible outcomes, downstream consequences, and their likelihoods, identifying shades of gray, determining if they rise to the level of significance, etc. If informational analysis isn’t on the table, this can’t even start.

Beware of Yoram Hazony’s Attempts to Subvert Nationalism, by Jose Alberto Nino - The Unz Review

 Kosher nationalist movements are merely stalking horses for Zionist geopolitical endeavors.

https://www.unz.com/jnino/beware-of-yoram-hazonys-attempts-to-subvert-nationalism/ 

....Nationalists must recognize that Yoram Hazony’s project is another containment strategy designed to undermine genuine nationalist movements in the West. It invites you to the table only to ensure that the menu never includes the actual preservation of the European state-building people of the United States. If we are to survive as a civilization, we must reject these managed movements and build an authentic nationalism that prioritizes our own sovereign survival over the pseudo-nationalist movements whose real agenda is the advancement of the organized Jewish community’s geopolitical interests.
