Attack on Saudi Arabia – Iran the U.S. Target (#99)
The drone attacks on some of Saudi Arabia’s oil facilities were carried out by the Houthi rebels of Yemen (according to their own admission). The mainly Shia Muslim Houthi rebels, are fighting the majority Sunni government troops headed by President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi, who is backed by the Saudi and United Arab Emirate ‘Coalition’, which includes the United States, and possibly Israel. The ‘Coalition’ has through their indiscriminate air strikes and bombings of the Houthi

As Risks Rise – So Seems Market Confidence. What gives? (#90)
Global tensions and adverse developments are at an all time high. Yet, except for brief pullbacks the major stock markets, especially USA’s, seem to take all the global business and political setbacks in stride, and almost immediately return to their positive territory. This upward repeating action does not reflect the current global economic reality, but as in the recent past, it seems to extend the undefeatable attitude of the full-on ‘Quantitative Easing’ (QE) times when t

Old Scourges – Bad Leadership, Divisive Politics of Race & Religion (#88)
We have all collectively made it to the 21st Century, but we still suffer from the oldest scourges of humanity, the hate and divisiveness caused by the differences in our ideologies, our race and our religious beliefs that threaten our very lives. On a global scale, as countries vie for dominance and power over each other, wars rage on, be they actual wars, or more lately, racial, religious, ideological, and even trade and commerce wars. But regardless of their nature, they f

Trump An Instrument of God – To Save the Jews? (#85)
Trump An Instrument of God – To Save the Jews? Well at least that’s what US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, thinks is possible because of his ‘faith’. On his current visit to Israel, Pompeo was reportedly asked by an interviewer of the Christian Broadcasting Network, if - "President Trump right now has been sort of raised for such a time as this, just like Queen Esther, to help save the Jewish people from an Iranian menace". Pompeo’s response was reported to be - "As a Chris

With North Korea – Trump Retreads Bill Clinton’s Ground (#67)
Preamble: It could be argued that Democratic Presidents were better for the United States, generally speaking. From Franklin Delano Roosevelt Sr. onward - his leadership during the Great Depression and the Second World War was legend, as was John Kennedy himself, the Moon Landing (the ‘Camelot’ years), right on to Barack Obama, whose two terms were literally historic from being the first African-American President, to saving the World’s financial system from Republican (Bush)

Trump – Mueller – And the New America (#66)
It has been almost 16 months since Donald J. Trump became President of the United States. For 12 of those months, he has been under investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller, for the possibility of his Campaign having colluded with Russian operatives to influence the 2016 Presidential Elections, in his favor. All evidence so far points to, at the very least, an unusually close and politically unhealthy relationship between Trump’s Campaign and Russia, and a concerted ef

The Hollowing-Out of Rex Tillerson (#61)
Rex Tillerson was not a very strong Secretary of State from the day of his appointment. From the very first, he did not exert his authority as a man of substance, though he was, as the long term Chief Executive of one of the World’s largest corporations, Texas-based Exxon Corp. From the day of his appointment as Secretary of State, America’s top Diplomat, Rex Tillerson acted as a low ranking employee in the Trump administration, pushed around, regularly contradicted and there

America’s Nemesis – Trump (#60)
As one watches the daily turbulence and turmoil in America generated by one man alone, the President of the United State, Donald J. Trump, enabled by the morally challenged Republicans, one cannot but help but think the Americans deserve the government they currently have, one that widens the rich and poor gap, penalizes the poor in favor of giving advantages to the wealthy, strips consumer protection, allow greater destruction of the environment, won’t act on common sense so

What a Trump State – Of the Union (#57)
The American political theatrics continued as Trump stoked the usual angst amongst all those that listened to him intone the tele-prompted State of the Union ('SOTU') address and acted ‘Presidential’ for the occasion. After this SOTU, Trump’s handlers, Republican law-makers of both Houses, and his supporters, all collectively breathed a sigh of relief and beamed their approval, because their President managed to stay on script, stuck to reading the teleprompter, didn’t flub t

The Speech That Confirmed Trump (#48)
On Tuesday the 19th, September 2017, the 45th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump, gave his first speech to the United Nations (U.N.). The U.N. was a body formed after the global horror of the First and Second World Wars, to bring Nations together to resolve disputes and conflicts through dialogue, diplomacy, and negotiations, and to try its utmost to avoid the recurring horrors of inter-national wars, unnecessary violence and bloodshed. It was also tas

Trump Jerks America Back – To the Past (#38)
Yesterday, June 1, 2017, at about 3.00 pm, President Donald J. Trump, announced, accompanied with his customary amateurish theatrics and dismal verbal flourishes, the obvious, that he was pulling America out of the Paris carbon emission mitigating ‘Agreement’ and marching it backwards. This was after teasing and titillating the entire World for a week in suspenseful silence, after his return from his foreign trip, as he supposedly reflected deeply on the planet changing choic

Trump’s Three Religion Trip (#37)
Trump is on his first foreign trip and it’s a big one. Conceived by his supposed wunderkind son-in-law Jared Kushner, Trump is visiting the homes of the three greatest religions on Earth: Saudi Arabia home to Islam, then on to Israel, home to Judaism and Christianity, and then to the Vatican City to meet the Pope and then to Brussels to a meeting of NATO. At some point in his campaign or even during the early days of his Presidency, Trump has offended every single religion th

Trump Struck Syria and Messaged the World (#32)
There is not a person on this earth, with a normal human heart, that was not affected deeply by the horrific images of the people and children in Syria struck down mercilessly by a heartless regime. This latest atrocity affected Trump enough that he took action to let his and the United States displeasure and outrage be known in no uncertain way. Tonight (April 6, 2017), the U.S. hit the Syrian airbase with 50-odd missiles from its warships in the Mediterranean, from which th
