The problem isn’t the info. The problem is Trump has surrounded himself with people who will tell him what he wants to hear. They are not honest with him.

How Much Crow Will Trump Have to Eat on Iran?

The Iranians have Trump between a rock and a hard place because they know he’s desperate to get out of the mess he’s started and they know the longer they wait the more desperate he will become. It’s his hubris that has gotten him into this predicament.
Be that as it may his public...
Brendan,
I hope you reconsider as I enjoy your contributions.
This is a post that could have been toned down some, particularly as we have a member who said he’s leaving and this does nothing to make him think about returning.
As if he hasn’t enough enough on his plate, dear leader called for Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries to join the Abraham Accords. He even Iran joining one day :D
I would use the word “understanding” cautiously. The Strait may open and nuclear negotiations pushed down the road and for Trump, the price of gas falls to acceptable levels such that the GOP has a fighting chance in the midterms. However, where we may be is status quo ante. Nothing gained...
I don’t really have a holy grail, no record I had to had. Today, so many records are being reissued that you don’t have to pay top money for an OG. There are many who prize after an OG but I’m fine with the remastered one.
I have gotten a little less particular about the sleeves. I used to be very fussy but I’ve gotten some pretty good sounding records with a VG sleeve.
On figures, AeroArt is definitely a good example. The box is secondary. It’s all about the figure, as it should be.
This is one of Bob’s most beautiful songs about loss and missing love. It’s so evocative. The song is based on his relationship with Suze Rotolo who was traveling to Italy in 1962 for study. The song focuses on their relationship which was ending.
Israel suing the NYT is a meaningless empty gesture. A person can be defamed, not a country.
Five or ten years ago I would have doubted the veracity of the story. Not today, considering how the Israelis treat Palestinians, particularly in the West Bank where the military literally gets away...
I’m taking a wait and see attitude. Again, I have no issue with most of the casting, except for Matt Damon. That seems odd to me. It’s an epic and it’s fiction.
One thing about Dylan is that he’s a great contrarian. He never did/does what people want. I don’t how many of you have seen A Complete Unknown but the movie more or less gets right what he did at Newport in 1964. He didn’t want to be pigeon holed anymore and had greater visions than being seen...
Here’s the article unlocked, but a bit more than an op-ed. I just read that the Israeli government has sued for defamation.
The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians...
