The Mideast War, The Pope 
       And Heretic Trump

Amid prayers for the Easter celebration, a time to ponder the miracle of resurrection and spiritual contemplation, Pope Leo XIV from his seat at the Vatican has recently spoken about the mission of peace on Earth, a papal message to focus the urgency of ending brutal warfare and continuing wrongs committed by so-called civilized societies - heinous crimes against humanity committed in the service of tired old vengeful Judaism.  The secular ‘Judaic' politicians that control Israel and suck off the ceaseless flow of dollars to 'little Israel' must be exposed and forced to face up to their well-earned Muslim enemies, who at least believe in Allah - in English ‘God' - rather the American dollar and gullible donors lining the pockets of Israel's vile, crooked politicians and influencers. 

The pontiff's voice 'in the wilderness' of sycophant politics and self-serving interest worldwide is a breath of fresh air that should compel lesser minds to consider actions as profound as self-sacrifice in service of humanity and enduring suffering on behalf of others as well as the remarkable miracle of the Resurrection of Jesus.  We, too, today, must get up the impossible nerve and latent strength to roll away the impossibly heavy stone that blocks our dark cave of fear, hatred and wealth-seeking to be able, once again, to see the light of day and walk the Earth without fear.  The goal is not vengeance but showing the way to a gentler and fairer world community with compassion for the weak, the sick and the impoverished. 

At a personal level, I eagerly await Pope Leo XIV (Father Robert Francis Prevost) to assert his Easter message to the world, especially on the urgency of end warfare in the Middle East - as opposed to the ploy of hard-line Netanyahu warmongers to drag in endless American soldiers and flyers to be killed off as their expendable goyim stand-ins. For decades the hate-driven militaristic Israelis have fueled hellfire with expulsion and killings of Palestinians, land grabs from neighboring Arab nations, and imprisonment of brave young men who defied foreign ‘settler' injustice against their own God-fearing agrarian families.

The greatest issue today - or problem on our hands, have you will - is the moral vacuum that blocks Americans, Europeans and all other societies from demanding an end to the war(s) initiated by the radical Jewish occupation of the Holy Land, a place that should be dedicated to solemn and joyous worship by Christians, Muslims and Jews alike.
For what is the larger role of Israel-Palestine or whatever the current secular term for that small strip of land at the center of the legacy of Judaism, Christianity and Isla?  Peace, fellowship and forgiveness are necessary for the Holy Land to be called such rather than a prison for dissenters, a killing field of Arab mothers and children in high-rise living quarters taller than the cedars of Lebanon, deliberate targeted destruction of hospitals and schools, and the terrible bias of religious bigotry among questionable leaders of a beastly Israeli occupation of the Holy Land.  The children of God have been hunted and killed off by pseudo-religious fanatics in the actual service of “another, more primitive, 'deity'".  Now, these satanic killers and land-grabbing thieves must face the music of justice - either politically human or ordained by a divine injunction. 

Plunging Into Another Unwinnable War

Worse, for Americans, is the decision to send U.S. naval and air force personnel into an unauthorized shooting spree by President Donald Trump - the vaguely ‘Christian' president never seen on the pews at mass or Christmas, the same character who sported a yamulka at the Wailing Wall and has been dicey about his specific religious affiliation - Episcopalian or Scottish Presbyterian (or secret Jewish convert).

Instead of religiosity, the hard-core New Yorker is better known for his endless greed associated with a personal history unbecoming of an American President.  Since he somehow did not serve in the Vietnam War or any other military service in overseas conflicts, his decision to send the USAF and Navy into one-sided combat against Iran in the Persian Gulf region can be interpreted as a (Jewish-ordered) 'business decision' - to profiteer from blood in the sand as well as the rare opportunity to profit on seaside real estate along the Gaza coast of death - Club Med Dead. 

Since the disastrous Vietnam War and hellish Iraq conflict of roadside bombs (IEDs), religious conflicts in foreign lands where Americans have no particular political or economic interest is a bad proposition.  In hindsight, Afghanistan fits the same bill.  A titanic war for the Holy Land is guaranteed to be far worse.  The greatest champion of the Crusades, King Richard Lionheart, for all his advanced catapults and steely armor was prevented from seizing Jerusalem by the followers of the tactician Saladin.  

Since the vast majority of Americans, sending military support to the Jewish haven of Israel - with its horrific human rights record and disdain for other religions, including Christianity - has set a bad precedent for foreign policy, to say the least.  Trump has plunged the American armed forces on a personal whim and perhaps paternal sentimentality to his obscure Jewish father with a questionable record of shady business dealings.  If 'Israel is the land of my father' why then wasn't Donald raised there as a ‘sabra' (cactus, soft inside but with a prickly exterior) to become a Jewish ‘settler' instead of financing rather unholy casinos and hotels in mob-controlled New Jersey? 

By contrast, the ‘American' Pope raised in Chicago and trained in Peru (during the years of Sendero Luminosa terrorism) has taken a righteous and reasonable stand against the latest war by Israel (less than 10 million Jewish citizens) against its neighbors, this time against a populous Iran - some 90 million inhabitants keenly supported by allied anti-Zionist movements from across the Middle East.  America's Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land - including evangelicals - are somewhere less than 500,000 a year.  By contrast, some 6 million Americans visit Ireland on any given year.  Both small nations have suffered their ‘troubles' of sectarian violence and state-sponsored repression, yet Northern Ireland in its worse decade mainly hewed to its laws and avoided outright killings of independence advocates.  'Little Israel’ is certainly not 'our closest ally' as claimed by the AIPAC lobby and other front-groups of the Mossad.  Cambodia, for instance, which suffered horrific massacres and brutality emerged a peaceful Buddhist society...friendly and open to Americans and the U.S. Navy. 

Time To Pull The Hook

It is disappointing, indeed, that the White House staff has yet to send Trump to his Mar-e-Lago estate for much needed stress relief and a health checkup along with a discreet psychiatric evaluation.  The impression - and as an outside observer I could be wrong - the White House staff have been sidelined by the lack of intensive debate and discussion of grounds for U.S. involvement in this Jewish-America Mideast War.  The absence of genuine factual information and comments from regional experts and American diplomats is so reminiscent of how the early-on 'brush-fire war' in Vietnam got out of hand from the Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon administrations along with the Pentagon - and ended in a disastrous retreat leaving untold numbers of servicemen and contractors to enemy forces. 

As public opinion across the Muslim world starts the inevitable shift away from local conflict in the Persian Gulf and moves toward the memory of 'Holy War against Infidels' - well, I am not certain about any holiness when all Hell breaks loose across the entire Muslim sphere.  Trump's abject support for 'little Israel’ - no objections allowed and no doubts tolerated - means that the American taxpaying public has been conned into another disgraceful, losing war that will end up with a pile of body bags air-freighted home.  Vietnam redux - from the Latin term ‘reducere' - to bring back.  No thanks! 

Again, what is most interesting to my college background in history studies is the present conflict between Church and State with the first American pontiff standing up to a dictatorial president - so similar in ways to the battle of wills between Saint Thomas Becket, bishop of Canterbury and a tyrannical King Henry II.  Will Trump's adoration of his Jewish bloodline result in another death at the Cathedral?  Just how far can the heinous crimes of Jewry go?  The switch from hero to arch-villain can be achieved in the flash of an eyelid. 

At this point on the curve of Israel's last war, the Pope controls the higher moral ground with probably nearly all of Europeans in quiet support of his personal intelligence along with plenty of patriotic Americans.  Meanwhile, Donald, sad to say is losing it, maybe already too far gone for recovery.  Meaning Trump is floating on a melting iceberg in the middle of the Persian Gulf while surrounded by sharks.  This absurd turn of fate for the USA is one for the history books for future generations to study...and to laugh or cry. 

As for the Israel Occupation, my sincere suggestion to Jews trapped in a doomed Israel is to pack up one's more valuable belongings, bow in humble obedience to the Creator and book a flight to safer climes in Europe or North America - ASAP.  Do not let the fake Israeli New York hustler Bibi Netanyahu leave you with a bayonet to stall millions of mujadeheen fighters as they swarm over your dead body. His BB gun isn't stopping Hezbollah.  The demographic facts of this battle are overwhelming in favor of expendable ready-to-die Muslims versus shopping-crazed, spoiled brats in little Israel.  Spare your children, my Jewish friends, and get out before it's too late.
