Welp, there's now even more insane newsworthy news that I guarantee The FP will ignore:

A whistleblower has come forward with proof that Tim Walz, who you may remember took THIRTY! trips to China (no one takes thirty "trips" to China), is connected to the CCP's direct action to destabilize the government and culture of the United States of America.

I'll be waiting with bated breath for Oliver Wiseman to allow someone here to write about that news.

This is an interesting and important story but why turn it into a cartoon? If I wanted to watch Bugs Bunny I wouldn't be reading The FP.

I like the format. It adds visuals to an audio recording. They can't show the narrators real face for security purposes.

Its a lengthy and important. The report (link below) by Politico gores into great detail on hezbollah's drug trafficking. And also, why the US government decided to let the case slide, despite mountains of evidence.

here's the first paragraphs:

"In its determination to secure a nuclear deal with Iran, the Obama administration derailed an ambitious law enforcement campaign targeting drug trafficking by the Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah, even as it was funneling cocaine into the United States, according to a POLITICO investigation.

The campaign, dubbed Project Cassandra, was launched in 2008 after the Drug Enforcement Administration amassed evidence that Hezbollah had transformed itself from a Middle East-focused military and political organization into an international crime syndicate that some investigators believed was collecting $1 billion a year from drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering and other criminal activities.

Over the next eight years, agents working out of a top-secret DEA facility in Chantilly, Virginia, used wiretaps, undercover operations and informants to map Hezbollah’s illicit networks, with the help of 30 U.S. and foreign security agencies."

The nuclear deal was for Obama’s Ego, his Legacy, and his presidential library. He’s so easy to hate it hurts to resist.

So I see The FP is completing ignoring how Kamala Harris's Border "policy" has PURPOSEFULLY let into our country over 600K criminals to include 15K rapists and 13K murderers.

Exactly as I said The FP would. Oliver Wiseman, you are nothing but a Leftist hack propagandist for the DNC. I want my money back.

Copy and paste guy!! I see you!!! BTW, what did you expect when the Biden administration let in 10 million border crossers?...those number's you're copying and pasting are likely higher...and vote for Trump...he's not the best choice but neither party could cough up the leader we need.

It was my limited understanding of the complex world of Islamic law that drug use for other than medical therapeutic purposes was illegal. "Islam forbids the use of any substance not

prescribed by a physician and which intoxicates the human body. Islam prohibits

all intoxicants, including narcotics, citing multiple texts in the Quran and

Hadith (Unlu & Sahin, 2016)". 1DOI: http://dx.doi.org/ 10.18860/eh.v24i1.15033

So how do these Islamist jihadists believe that they are following their religious tenets when engaging in drug trafficking, or using Captagon as "Dutch courage"? Wouldn't this in their belief system make it impossible for them to ascend to the desired place in the afterlife? I am not being flip!!!! I really don't understand the disconnect. Is there something that excludes this behavior if it is being undertaken to combat a non-believer? Again, I am not being flippant! I reallly want to understand this.

Easy answer to that one. Their not religious zealot's. A zealot adheres to Islamic law.

And Biden and other western leaders want to de-escalate, which would leave Hezbollah in place. Thankfully Netanyahu isn't listening to them.

It is no wonder why these stories are never told or why the media and the government control our journey in life. LSD was given without consent. Tuskegee Syphilis Study, which withheld syphilis treatment from hundreds of Black men for 40 years, from 1932 to 1972 as part of a government test. Thousands of men led before nuclear test blasts. Thousands of children who were brought across our border to become slaves to evil men. Lost and can't be found by our government. Lockdowns, school closures, and freedom of expression suppressed are but a few examples. If you can control the discussion and hide the truth or suppress the bad... you then can control the outcome. If you want changes, you should ask for paper ballots and hand counts. Read, listen, and form your opinions from multiple sources. You will soon see the real words hidden from your view. Thanks for the story presented to shed light on the darkness of evil.

Absolutely horrifying! And our American media and certain democrat politicians are complicit in these atrocities. Thank you for shedding a light on this.

Thank you for publicising what is actually going on with Hezbollah and the destruction it has enabled on so many levels.

Hopefully the recent action in Lebanon will go some way towards stemming this trade.

Why does our media do the terrorist's public relations? Is it for free? Why do they take the side of those tearing us down? What's in it for them? Qui bono, who benefits?

I may have an answer to your query. It comes down to the simplistic meme, oppressor and oppressed. The knee-jerk response of legacy media is driven by their default position of convincing themselves that the loser (Hezbollah)group needs a rosy depiction in honor of fairness. It is also a convenient way to degrade the winner group because their status has to be achieved by devious means. It is kind of like saying to a stick-up man, can you leave me $5 for bus fare and he agrees. Is the robber now charitable?

So the poor (oppressed) bully the rich (not-oppressed) nations, and the wealthy elites peddle terrible ideas that will burn everyone down?

Expand full comment

You lost me MD. Lebanon is not what it was because of what rich country?

Expand full comment

The paradigm of oppressor-oppressed. The poor are not doing well because of their horrible policies and ideas, not because they're being oppressed. But they bully those who are doing better and bully them today. We cater to these people and want to "help" them. That's what I understood from your comment above.

Being that I'm not the most gifted writer or intellect you are damn close to understanding what I am trying to convey. When I say the default position of the legacy media, I'm saying they rarely consider people may be responsible for their lot especially when in comparison to a more successful group. In no way am I saying the more successful in actuality are never oppressors. It's the media's default position that obscures any objectivity that irks me to no end.

Okay. I understand. The media is trying to always take the side of the "underdog" without considering that their lot may be unfortunate due to their own decisions. This is how we do public relations for those who can do lots of evil. Did I get that right?
