got all frothy and played the Hitler card.  It's 1933 all over again.  So I sought to soothe his tortured soul.  Well, kind of.

Give me a break.
Trump is an immensely successful real-estate developer, brand merchandiser, reality-tv showman, New York celebrity complete w/NY bluntness, a former celebrated man-about-town turned family man in business with his kids, a New York version of the Waltons (both the ones on the mountain and the ones who own Walmart). Horatio Alger from the Big Apple. A larger-than-life super achiever. He's rude and crude and he doesn't do "tone". His impolitic bluntness is the antidote to Kool-Aid-saturated political correctness. He's the reality-television version of Elon Musk. You love him or hate him (envy and the alpha-male instinct). He's authentic and he's meteoric. He's a builder, not a destroyer, not a killer.
Lose the hysteria. You wish you were Donald Trump, same as you might wish you were Hugh Hefner. It's okay. We're all human. We understand secret love.

"Terrorism" and other manipulations

From The Next Big Future, which I believe is Brian Wang's website/blog (I'm new at this stuff) , I find a piece entitled Terrorism is a subset of Murder http://nextbigfuture.com/2011/03/terrorism-is-subset-of-murder.html (asserting, if I get it right, that Terrorism is illegitimate by virtue of being criminal). One commenter, Gigi, responded: As I have already tried to say before, I consider any use of the word “terrorism” more or less pointless. In fact, reading much of the western media about “terrorism” there is almost nowhere any clear definition of the word “terrorism”, for the simple reason that for any kind of such definition many of the military actions taken by the West against unarmed civilians in, say, Iraq or Vietnam may well fall in this definition. Is this an action of terrorism? http://boingboing.net/2010/04/... Simply put it, if Hamas kills one Israeli civilian it is terrorism, if the US or Israel directly kill 10 or more Palestinian it is

Clearly too

The future of the Zionist "project".

You're right about Herzl being dead at the time of the Balfour Declaration. But that's just a quibble. The killer, thieving, lying Zionists intended from day one to take all of Palestine, "disappear" the Palestinians, and "deal with" anyone who got in their way. This is the pattern of five-thousand years which has always brought reaction and grief for the Jews. In the post-Holocaust era it was the height of political incorrectness to notice the pattern, and suggest that Jewish misbehavior was the source of anti-Jewish "persecution" -- blowback really -- down the ages. Now the internet has opened a gap in the Zionist propaganda, and the truth has flowed out for all the world to see. In full view of the world we see killer Zionists sitting on sofas on a hill overlooking Gaza watching the mass slaughter, and celebrating. This is the nature of the Jewish power elite. And somehow they think no one will notice their barbarism. Nukes or no nukes
