'the Epstein cover up " ? So , if Trump is supposedly "covering up the Epstein files "then how would you describe the Bidunce administrations treatment of them ? Because in four years I don't recall Joey the demented child sniffer's admin make even the slightest attempt to shed any light upon them . Is that a super duper cover up ? Epstein was prosecuted and 'suicide'd ' in 2019 during the first Trump admin .
Well, Slick Willie, POTUS Trump, Prince Andrew and Hillary were all buddies. Epstein insinuated on tape that POTUS Trump was banging Hillary (and Willie Brown insinuated that POTUS had banged Kamala, but I digress).POTUS Trump and the Dems were very close. Kind of obvious why the Democrats didn't try to shed any light on the Epstein files. Both sides, the entire unitary, are full.of kiddie fuckers.
Wizzie: I hope the Ep saga plays out as it should, with a significant reduction in extra-national influence of USA and I hope the destruction on the 47 year reign of terror upon the Persians begets a reorganization of our world. Try Promethian Action Network for some truth.
He was incapable to solve the Ukraine war and is now getting hammered in Bibis war against Iran. Hold your verdict (based on nothing) until the 1000s of body bags come home should he follow through with his hairbrain scheme to deploy ground troops to some shit islands in the strait of Hormuz( genius just genius)
Yes! The largest lie is that people change, they do not. Life is not a soap opera.
Iran is Shia Islam, dedicated to converting the world to Islam and Sharia Law. The only way that they will change is if they are put six feet under.
Whatever happened to the more liberal elements that were demonstrating before the war? If Trump was counting on them changing Iran, it was a fools mission.
The last paragraph is a pipe dream. Trump, going to believe anything that the ragheads in Iran say is as stupid as John Kerry trying to “reason” with them 15 years ago. The next thing might be trying to buy off their radical beliefs with cash? Uh-huh.
Mr. John----the mullahs and their minions are all bat shiff crazy so I agree that they may swear up and down that they give up on terrorism but.....it ain't going to happen. As long as their is 1 J person left on earth, they will still be bat shiff crazy. We have to deal with another set of people. I have known several people from Iran who are not crazy muzzies so there are sane people in Iran, we just have to find them. I give Trump credit for trying but hopefully he will not be given bad advice to make a deal with anyone with a rag on their head. I give it a 50% chance.
Yes. This religious war between Sharia and Sunni has been going on since the 7th century.
The two main branches of Islam can't even get along with each other. 85-90% are Sunni, the majority in most Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, and Indonesia.
Not completely ,but it would definitely be an expensive can kicking exersize and so we'd just be back dealing with them in a matter of time again . I prefer total unconditional surrender thru annihilation ,'old school', WW2 style ,cuz ,we actually won those wars ( European and Pacific ) Nope , we need a no holds barred inequivacable WIN with a capital W here . IMO .
If it becomes "over" with the regime intact then heads should roll including of the propagandists who said this was a good idea, as opposed to one that would lead to empowerment of the hardliners and consolidation of the regime.
It appears that the Dems may have plans to put POTUS and others in the dock of the ICC at The Hague and figure they can do it without even revoking the 2002 ASPA.
Somehow the worst that the ICC could do does not seem sufficient for what should happen to those responsible for promoting such a fools' errand if it becomes "over" with the regime intact.
Looks like your head is jammed firmly up your ass. "Mark" is an apt name, given that it's a synonym for "sucker." If it becomes over with the regime intact you should make amends for supporting a losing course of action by following your head all the way up. It might also be a good idea to get some boosters of your "beautiful vaccine" and do a lot of high intensity interval training.
Trump is a WW1 fighter ace, head of the Luftwaffe and member of Hitler's inner circle who's given to drinking huge amounts of expensive wine, stealing art, and wearing white uniforms? Jeez, here I thought he was Hitler himself, from what the Left says.
They will all have to put themselves in the dock then, too.
I find it interesting that the US government under Obama created and supplied ISIS, and Trump now praises Syria's ISIS headchopper president post overthrow.
"Since 1945, the United States has been responsible for the highest number of military and civilian deaths, including through direct actions and proxy wars.
Korea (1950–1953): ~2–3 million dead, mostly civilians from bombing and ground warfare.
Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia (1955–1975): ~3–4 million civilians and combatants; includes mass bombing (e.g., Operation Rolling Thunder, Secret War in Laos).
Iraq (1990–2011): ~1–1.5 million dead, including 500,000+ children due to sanctions (1990s), and war-related violence post-2003.
Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia (2001–present): ~400,000+ civilians directly killed; over 3 million total deaths including indirect causes.
Proxy support: U.S. has backed militaries and conflicts in Chile, Guatemala, Indonesia, Angola, El Salvador, Colombia, contributing to hundreds of thousands of deaths.
Israel (2023–present): U.S. provides unconditional military aid and diplomatic cover. Over 70,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza, with U.S.-supplied weapons used in densely populated areas. The U.S. is not counted as directly causing these deaths, but is seen by international bodies and human rights groups as complicit due to continued arms transfers."
Your comment is much appreciated but the deaths you cited are only a fraction of what the USA has inflicted on what it views as the inferior races. James Bacque in "Other Losses" showed how approximately 1,000,000 Germans were systematically exterminated in US concentration camps in Europe following the defeat of Germany by the Soviet Union and its allies in 1945.
There was a furious propaganda campaign to try to discredit Bacque's book but he was vindicated after the release following the dissolution by Gorbachev of the Soviet Union of KGB archives which contained contemporaneous information from that era which corroborated his assertions.
Hmmm… so Iran is on the ropes? Not hardly! This war of aggression was pursued for the benefit of Israel will end very badly for everyone (maybe that was their objective).
Wow, you have been severely affected by the war? Maybe paying another buck for gasoline? BFD, bucko. When are you going to want to stop these radical assholes, when they are walking down your street?

Mr. John, the only thing that I can say in support of the group of idiots that says we should just try to get along with Iran is that when Iran would get a nuke they would not be aiming it at any location that I am expecting to ever be at here in the US unless I am driving thru or around a major blue city. Yes, their would be major deaths of innocent people in the blue city or cities that would be targeted by the 7th century barbarians but.......it would certainly knock out a lot of the bat shiff crazy Dem/Marxists with TDS and if DC was hit, a lot of the old pols who should have been term limited a long time ago if the Rs would have fulfilled their promise to pass term limits, back in the 90's with the Contract with America.
Mr.Gary----yes, bringing down the towers did change things for a little while but......now the citizens (and all the fraud voters) have elected a muslim to be mayor. Sounds strange to me but I guess not to the people of NYC who always have their hands out for freebies.
Ron, there are ways of smuggling nukes and dirty material into this country other than the tip of a missile. Are you reading about the sleeper cells that are starting to be activated inside America? What are they capable of?
Allowing Iran to acquire nukes is insanity, period.
Hence the reason our military should be here, finding and detaining all of these sleeper cells instead of scattered abroad throughout the world doing who knows what.
If there is a Trump/Bibi global and US recession the entire west benefits. True. In the same way that the entire world benefits from.Americans taking the Trump mRNA shots.
Not sure what you are referring to. Iran is in a rough place. Degrading their ability to terrorize and threaten benefits everyone except the regime. Not sure what this has to do with covid vaccination mandates pushed by progressives.
For being headless, Iran is doing an awfully good job of defending itself...Maybe dispersing commands is actually a good idea....But sadly, JK remain clueless,,,Nor is he concerned about the double tapping of a girls school on the opening day of the sneak attack, a war crime for which the penalty at Nuremberg was hanging....But of course Israel has a fetish for killing young children.....
Maybe it wasn't such a good idea for the IRGC to site a girls' school right next to am important military installation. . . and keep it open on a day when every other school was told to shut down.
Not just that, JHK, why does the world give license to Iran to bomb any civilian target they try to aim at. Anyone remember the SCUD missiles of Hussein? As I said last time, these missiles cannot hit the broad side of a barn from the inside. The Iranians aim at cities, not military targets, because that is all they are capable of.
Israel, or the USA, hit a school next to a missile complex. So damn what. How many kids are being killed and injured in Israel.
You USA and Jew haters are really something else, evil beyond belief. You all can KMA.
I stood back for a couple of weeks to watch the blog without my input. I noticed no change to the USAHater content but noticed that JHK was starting to take notice of the increasing level of bullshit that was being presented by commenters.
Salty, hell yeah, what do you expect from a former sailor?
Why do you only look at Israel going after its enemies and pay absolutely no attention to all the missiles, rockets and Gaza and Hezbollah attacks against Israel. Your bias is showing.
So what are you saying? That since some people decided to put a school near military installations that it's ok to kill those children?
Funny, too, how the US/Israel seemed to know exactly where and when the heads of Iran were, to be murdered-- even in precise times and locations in other countries-- but were somehow blind to a school full of children.
Tell us how that works, Jim.
Because at a minimum of 70 000 casualties in Gaza-- that's taking Israel's own acceptance of that statistic-- perhaps we already know how.
Oh, and as per the USA's own laws, in case you forgot, murder is a crime, including aiding and abetting it.

"The most absurd apology for authority and law is that they serve to diminish crime. Aside from the fact that the State is itself the greatest criminal, breaking every written and natural law, stealing in the form of taxes, killing in the form of war and capital punishment, it has come to an absolute standstill in coping with crime. It has failed utterly to destroy or even minimize the horrible scourge of its own creation." ~ Emma Goldman
Not sure what truth or narrative you are speaking about. It is a tragedy that children were killed. And Kunstler only demonstrates his ignorance when he suggests that "they" should not have put a school by a military installation. Has he ever been to a US military installation? Have you Ben? I have lived on many.
Indeed, such as ISIS, Palantir, Zuckerberg, Thiel, Ellison, and mass murderer Bourla in the White House. Pushing of quaxxines, the initiation of Operation Warp Speed and the Plandemic, the broken promise of "no more wars," and on and on.
Major betrayals to freedom lovers everywhere. Truths that your tiny brain, knee-deep in cognitive dissonance, filters out.
Block me. Let the hate for the truth flow through you!
Are you as concerned about the children here being mutilated and poisoned by the medical profession in the name of transgenderism as you are about the Iranian girls school?
While the school was indeed near a former or adjacent IRGC facility, evidence suggests it had functioned as a clearly identifiable civilian school for years. Claims that the IRGC deliberately placed a school next to an active base or intentionally kept it open during attacks are not firmly supported by available evidence so far.
• Air strikes across Iran began around 10:00 a.m. local time on 28 February 2026.
• After the attacks started, authorities announced a nationwide closure of schools at about 10:15 a.m..
• The Minab school was struck around 10:45 a.m..
According to a representative of Iranian teachers’ unions:
• The school decided to close shortly after hearing about the attacks, even before the official national closure announcement.
• However, the time between the closure decision and the missile strike was too short for parents to reach the school and pick up their children.
The U.S. military operates a large global system of schools through the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA).
• These schools serve children of U.S. military personnel and civilian employees.
• Many are inside military bases or immediately adjacent to them.
• Childcare and early-education facilities are also run through base Child Development Centers (CDCs).
Examples include schools located directly on bases such as:
• Ramstein Air Base
• Yokota Air Base
• Naval Air Station Sigonella
Each of these installations has elementary schools and childcare facilities within the base perimeter.
The legal and ethical issue (under the law of war)
Even if a civilian structure is near a military target:
• Civilian objects remain protected unless they are used for military purposes.
• Attacking forces must consider distinction, proportionality, and precautions under international humanitarian law.
Of course,none of this matters to hypocrites or psychopaths.
I've been with you a long time Jim. Hell's bells I even have one of your paintings [Battenkill River from the Route 372 Bridge, Greenwich, New York, August]. One of us is wrong about the Israel-U.S. war on Iran. Time will tell which one of us is and isn't wrong. Meanwhile I'm taking a "time out" from reading your commentaries. They serve no useful purpose for me at present.
I used to work with a woman whose family fled Iran after the jihadis took over. SHe told me, with tears streaming down her face, how Muslim neighbors they considered friends made her uncle, his wife and their children drink boiling tea. It kills you slowly because the tissues slough off and your throat swells to the point you can't breathe. A family friend of hers, a Christian, had a knife tied to her bound hands by the Islamic religious police and they flung her son against her repeatedly, so that she disemboweled him.
The Persians have a chance to take their country back from men such as these, and I hope they do.
"A family friend of hers, a Christian, had a knife tied to her bound hands by the Islamic religious police and they flung her son against her repeatedly, so that she disemboweled him."

"Demonization of the enemy is a propaganda technique used in warfare to portray the opposing side as evil, threatening, and morally corrupt, often reducing complex political or military conflicts to a simplistic 'good versus evil' narrative. This tactic aims to justify violence, mobilize public support, unite allies, and dehumanize the enemy, making killing or harsh actions easier to rationalize.
It is also commonly referred to as dehumanization of the enemy, enemy demonization, or atrocity propaganda, especially when used to spread exaggerated or false stories of enemy brutality. The practice has been documented throughout history—from Ancient Greece to World War I and II, and in modern conflicts—where governments and media frame the enemy as subhuman or demonic."
I was recounting a lived experience. Is a woman telling police about being raped demonizing men, or is she telling them what happened.
Your screed on demonization, while interesting, is completely beside the point. Islam is demonizing itself, all over the planet, by the behavior of its adherents. It is far more effective than anything little ole me could post.
We, as a species, help create the demons that we then fight.
Men and women, both, are and have been 'raped' everywhere and at every time, as have cultures, such as by this Western one that you may be upholding and/or rationalizing/making excuses for.
I've heard that Israel created or helped create Hamas. I wouldn't doubt it, and in different ways/senses than just one...

I was in a meeting of U'wa people who are fighting oil development in Colombia... and [the way] they talk about oil...

“I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested. Looking back on it, I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.” ~ Smedley D. Butler, 'War Is a Racket'
The Democratic Party sold its soul to the devil decades ago by full-throatedly promoting the killing of babies through all nine months of pregnancy and even the moment of birth. There is something deeply anti-human and self-hating about this enthusiasm for killing our own progeny. It shows a contempt for humanity and a despair of life's possibilitities. That's not far away from a mass death-wish.
The UK is about to join you. They're sneaking the legislation in with the latest Crime and Policing Bill, instead of making it a standalone Bill that people would notice. The House of Lords (the scrutinising chamber) has just approved the decriminalisation of abortion up to and including birth. So you can have your baby at home and then strangle it if the mood takes you. 'Don't agree with abortion - don't have one' doesn't really work, does it, for the baby, who'd probably prefer not to have one.
Anyway, this will doubtless be stage 1, before it's available on the NHS.
Since there are I believe 31 separate district commands operating in Iran at present, I am sure the TDS crew can find someone who claims they are the government of Iran and that Orange Hickory had no negotiations with THEM regardless of who is actually in charge or the entity currently considered "the government."
Unsure he TACO'd, based on the 82nd Airborne Division, and other 'elite forces', possibly getting their 'conscription papers' or whatever it's called to go into battle. And they may even already be on their way, maybe by this Friday ETA.
The 'TACO' is likely a ruse, like other times, like during 'negotiations'.
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
I have been following Kunstler ever since reading The Long Emergency. However, he couldn't be more wrong on his analysis of the war in Iran. For the best reporting on this war and all things geopolitical, go to Judge Napolitano's YouTube channel. He is interviewing multiple "experts" daily including the likes of Professor Mearsheimer, Professor Sacs, Scott Ritter, Col. Macgregor, Alistair Crooke, Col. Davis, Ray McGovern, etc. etc. Iran has been planning this war for decades. They hold the winning hand. The US is creating yet another debacle in the Middle East. Judge Napolitano's deserves a Pulitzer Prize for his reporting.
Jim has checked his brain and now wields his brand new pair of red pom-poms.
-----
I highly recommend "Judging Freedom" with Judge Andrew Napolitano and his stable of top-notch geopolitical analysts: Mcgregor, Wilkerson, Ritter, Johnson, Sachs, Mearsheimer, Blumenthal, Escobar, Maté, Hoh, Kwiatkowski, Freeman, Crooke, Doctorow, Diesen, Giraldi et al.
What if Jim doesn't have to be right? What if it's about controversy and more readership numbers (and readers verbally flogging each other, etc.), a contrary niche, stuff like that? He could be wrong or he could be right or somewhere in-between, but who cares, such as if it's more interesting, or more money in the pocket for a rainy day, increasing age, failing health or some medical maintenance on the bionic hip, which he's apparently had problems with before? I hear American health care leaves much to be desired and compared with fellow so-called developed nations.

Apparently, some branches of the American military have been 'given their papers', which I think means, they're on their way to Iran. As we all should know by now, the US 'negotiates' as a ruse, as they 'set things up'.
Where I used to live, there used to be a hole-in-the-wall resto, called, Taco Loco. Do you know what loco means?
The idea is probably nowhere near freeing Iranians from their evil oppressors, but, rather, to demolish the entire country (case in point: https://www.kunstler.com/p/the-clusterfuck-nation-chronicle-240), which, presumably means a lot more dead innocent Iranians (and of course other people), now or eventually, in worse 'shape' than how they supposedly were during their 'oppression'.
Gaza's 'blind-eye' demolishment is/was an example for all to see.
The racism on display on this blog and in the comments is astounding. With respect Mr. Kunstler, you went off a cliff on the topic of the ME when you seemed A-Okay with bombing mostly unarmed, helpless populations into oblivion. It’s okay as long as it’s Arabs or Persians seems to be the vibe here. Your moral/tribal blind spot shows. I will make a prediction, when this is over we won’t have a base in the Middle East. The Iranians will obtain a nuclear weapon, because if you have one, people will leave you alone. I think we are being lied to by our so-called leaders. Funny we haven’t heard anything much about those aircraft carriers. I have a feeling they were badly damaged and had to limp back to the shipyard for repairs.
10? How about next year as soon as Russia rearms them and they rearm Hamas and Hezbollah? Until the regime is on the bottom of the Gulf, Iran will do what it can to disrupt the world so they will be in charge. Not on Trump’s watch.
And then on to Turkey? Israel says Turkey is the next Iran. President Netanyahu and vice President Trump are going to get us nuked. There is obviously no dealing with us.
There is very little left to be said concerning the MSM.
According to the rules of cavalry: if the horse is dead- dismount.

‘No Post-Presidential Peace’: The New Republic Pushes Plan to Send Trump and His Officials to The Hague | The Gateway Pundit | by Ben Kew https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/03/no-post-presidential-peace-new-republic-pushes-plan/
The New Republic can go fuck itself.
Looks like AwakeNot is having a conversation only with himself….
He is another nutty frothing one.
Looks like your head is jammed firmly up your ass. "Mark" is an apt name, given that it's a synonym for "sucker." If it becomes over with the regime intact you should make amends for supporting a losing course of action by following your head all the way up. It might also be a good idea to get some boosters of your "beautiful vaccine" and do a lot of high intensity interval training.
I’m sticking with the ole Constitutional Republic!
The only one in the world that enshrines a "right to sodomy" (SCOTUS: Lawrence v. Texas, 2004)?
Mr. K-----let me add something to your comment------ .....and the horse they rode in on.
There's an oldie but a goodie!
It already has, on a regular basis.
I guess it probably will. The thought of POTUS taking Goering's place will just make their orgasms stronger.
Trump is a WW1 fighter ace, head of the Luftwaffe and member of Hitler's inner circle who's given to drinking huge amounts of expensive wine, stealing art, and wearing white uniforms? Jeez, here I thought he was Hitler himself, from what the Left says.
The real wonder is that you, a competent adult, buys any of this Leftist shit.
Competent adult? Facts not in evidence, Sir.
They will all have to put themselves in the dock then, too.
I find it interesting that the US government under Obama created and supplied ISIS, and Trump now praises Syria's ISIS headchopper president post overthrow.
They are all in it.

"Since 1945, the United States has been responsible for the highest number of military and civilian deaths, including through direct actions and proxy wars.
Korea (1950–1953): ~2–3 million dead, mostly civilians from bombing and ground warfare.
Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia (1955–1975): ~3–4 million civilians and combatants; includes mass bombing (e.g., Operation Rolling Thunder, Secret War in Laos).
Iraq (1990–2011): ~1–1.5 million dead, including 500,000+ children due to sanctions (1990s), and war-related violence post-2003.
Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia (2001–present): ~400,000+ civilians directly killed; over 3 million total deaths including indirect causes.
Proxy support: U.S. has backed militaries and conflicts in Chile, Guatemala, Indonesia, Angola, El Salvador, Colombia, contributing to hundreds of thousands of deaths.
Israel (2023–present): U.S. provides unconditional military aid and diplomatic cover. Over 70,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza, with U.S.-supplied weapons used in densely populated areas. The U.S. is not counted as directly causing these deaths, but is seen by international bodies and human rights groups as complicit due to continued arms transfers."
~ Brave search consolidated results quote
Your comment is much appreciated but the deaths you cited are only a fraction of what the USA has inflicted on what it views as the inferior races. James Bacque in "Other Losses" showed how approximately 1,000,000 Germans were systematically exterminated in US concentration camps in Europe following the defeat of Germany by the Soviet Union and its allies in 1945.
There was a furious propaganda campaign to try to discredit Bacque's book but he was vindicated after the release following the dissolution by Gorbachev of the Soviet Union of KGB archives which contained contemporaneous information from that era which corroborated his assertions.
Except that the regime is already not intact at all
The IRGC is running the show. They are the regime, and have not yet been defeated.
We will see. The IRGC isn’t really running anything. They will break.
in the meantime.....
Hmmm… so Iran is on the ropes? Not hardly! This war of aggression was pursued for the benefit of Israel will end very badly for everyone (maybe that was their objective).
Wow, you have been severely affected by the war? Maybe paying another buck for gasoline? BFD, bucko. When are you going to want to stop these radical assholes, when they are walking down your street?
My own government is the threat to me, not Iran. Iran isn't putting heavy metals in vaccine, fluoride in water, and glyphosate into food.
Iran isn't doing anything to curtail my freedoms.
Iran isn't openly putting their agents in government to advance their interest. Israel is. Do you think the US should go to war with Israel?
Head. Meet ass.
Israel should fight its own wars!

Mr. John, the only thing that I can say in support of the group of idiots that says we should just try to get along with Iran is that when Iran would get a nuke they would not be aiming it at any location that I am expecting to ever be at here in the US unless I am driving thru or around a major blue city. Yes, their would be major deaths of innocent people in the blue city or cities that would be targeted by the 7th century barbarians but.......it would certainly knock out a lot of the bat shiff crazy Dem/Marxists with TDS and if DC was hit, a lot of the old pols who should have been term limited a long time ago if the Rs would have fulfilled their promise to pass term limits, back in the 90's with the Contract with America.
As Obama said, the explosion of a nuke in an American city would not change our way of life.
Altho it's interesting that bringing down the twin towers did.
Hmmm.
Mr.Gary----yes, bringing down the towers did change things for a little while but......now the citizens (and all the fraud voters) have elected a muslim to be mayor. Sounds strange to me but I guess not to the people of NYC who always have their hands out for freebies.
Yes, 25 years after, 9/11 achieved its goal - New York is an Islamic stronghold. Certainly changed the way of life.
Ron, there are ways of smuggling nukes and dirty material into this country other than the tip of a missile. Are you reading about the sleeper cells that are starting to be activated inside America? What are they capable of?
Allowing Iran to acquire nukes is insanity, period.
That US/Israel can decide who can acquire nukes is insanity! Period.
Murica is the only country on the planet with sufficiently degenerate morals to use them. Dropping two nukes ~ on innocent civilians.
The nickname "the Great Satan" is well earned by the warmongering Yanks!
Iran has shown amazing restraint so far, despite our assassinations and terrorism.
Hence the reason our military should be here, finding and detaining all of these sleeper cells instead of scattered abroad throughout the world doing who knows what.
Haha
They're already walking down our streets! They should be eliminated here first.
Iran is on the ropes and the entire west benefits
If there is a Trump/Bibi global and US recession the entire west benefits. True. In the same way that the entire world benefits from.Americans taking the Trump mRNA shots.
Not sure what you are referring to. Iran is in a rough place. Degrading their ability to terrorize and threaten benefits everyone except the regime. Not sure what this has to do with covid vaccination mandates pushed by progressives.
For being headless, Iran is doing an awfully good job of defending itself...Maybe dispersing commands is actually a good idea....But sadly, JK remain clueless,,,Nor is he concerned about the double tapping of a girls school on the opening day of the sneak attack, a war crime for which the penalty at Nuremberg was hanging....But of course Israel has a fetish for killing young children.....
Maybe it wasn't such a good idea for the IRGC to site a girls' school right next to am important military installation. . . and keep it open on a day when every other school was told to shut down.
Not just that, JHK, why does the world give license to Iran to bomb any civilian target they try to aim at. Anyone remember the SCUD missiles of Hussein? As I said last time, these missiles cannot hit the broad side of a barn from the inside. The Iranians aim at cities, not military targets, because that is all they are capable of.
Israel, or the USA, hit a school next to a missile complex. So damn what. How many kids are being killed and injured in Israel.
You USA and Jew haters are really something else, evil beyond belief. You all can KMA.
Boy, you are salty today, JohnAZ. Really salty.
I stood back for a couple of weeks to watch the blog without my input. I noticed no change to the USAHater content but noticed that JHK was starting to take notice of the increasing level of bullshit that was being presented by commenters.
Salty, hell yeah, what do you expect from a former sailor?
Israel razed entire neighborhoods recently, watchable in real time on the Interwebz.
Your ability to expunge the reality you don't want to see is truly incredible.
Why do you only look at Israel going after its enemies and pay absolutely no attention to all the missiles, rockets and Gaza and Hezbollah attacks against Israel. Your bias is showing.
your keep weaving in and out of iran and iraq . what is your point?
My point was, the same indifference about attacking Israeli civilians seems to stem from all the Islamic idiots. The world just stands by and watches.
So what are you saying? That since some people decided to put a school near military installations that it's ok to kill those children?
Funny, too, how the US/Israel seemed to know exactly where and when the heads of Iran were, to be murdered-- even in precise times and locations in other countries-- but were somehow blind to a school full of children.
Tell us how that works, Jim.
Because at a minimum of 70 000 casualties in Gaza-- that's taking Israel's own acceptance of that statistic-- perhaps we already know how.
Oh, and as per the USA's own laws, in case you forgot, murder is a crime, including aiding and abetting it.

"The most absurd apology for authority and law is that they serve to diminish crime. Aside from the fact that the State is itself the greatest criminal, breaking every written and natural law, stealing in the form of taxes, killing in the form of war and capital punishment, it has come to an absolute standstill in coping with crime. It has failed utterly to destroy or even minimize the horrible scourge of its own creation." ~ Emma Goldman
Disappointing comment
The truth does tend to be that way when it runs contrary to believed narratives.
Not sure what truth or narrative you are speaking about. It is a tragedy that children were killed. And Kunstler only demonstrates his ignorance when he suggests that "they" should not have put a school by a military installation. Has he ever been to a US military installation? Have you Ben? I have lived on many.
Indeed, such as ISIS, Palantir, Zuckerberg, Thiel, Ellison, and mass murderer Bourla in the White House. Pushing of quaxxines, the initiation of Operation Warp Speed and the Plandemic, the broken promise of "no more wars," and on and on.
Major betrayals to freedom lovers everywhere. Truths that your tiny brain, knee-deep in cognitive dissonance, filters out.
Block me. Let the hate for the truth flow through you!
Are you as concerned about the children here being mutilated and poisoned by the medical profession in the name of transgenderism as you are about the Iranian girls school?
Of course, not that is not part of the get Israel and hate America bandwagon.
That's funny
The same people are behind both.
While the school was indeed near a former or adjacent IRGC facility, evidence suggests it had functioned as a clearly identifiable civilian school for years. Claims that the IRGC deliberately placed a school next to an active base or intentionally kept it open during attacks are not firmly supported by available evidence so far.
• Air strikes across Iran began around 10:00 a.m. local time on 28 February 2026.
• After the attacks started, authorities announced a nationwide closure of schools at about 10:15 a.m..
• The Minab school was struck around 10:45 a.m..
According to a representative of Iranian teachers’ unions:
• The school decided to close shortly after hearing about the attacks, even before the official national closure announcement.
• However, the time between the closure decision and the missile strike was too short for parents to reach the school and pick up their children.
The U.S. military operates a large global system of schools through the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA).
• These schools serve children of U.S. military personnel and civilian employees.
• Many are inside military bases or immediately adjacent to them.
• Childcare and early-education facilities are also run through base Child Development Centers (CDCs).
Examples include schools located directly on bases such as:
• Ramstein Air Base
• Yokota Air Base
• Naval Air Station Sigonella
Each of these installations has elementary schools and childcare facilities within the base perimeter.
The legal and ethical issue (under the law of war)
Even if a civilian structure is near a military target:
• Civilian objects remain protected unless they are used for military purposes.
• Attacking forces must consider distinction, proportionality, and precautions under international humanitarian law.
Of course,none of this matters to hypocrites or psychopaths.
You're beginning to look. . . banned.
And you’re beginning to look more and more like an ill-informed, hostile loser hosting a platform for like-minded, foul-mouthed losers 😑
I've been with you a long time Jim. Hell's bells I even have one of your paintings [Battenkill River from the Route 372 Bridge, Greenwich, New York, August]. One of us is wrong about the Israel-U.S. war on Iran. Time will tell which one of us is and isn't wrong. Meanwhile I'm taking a "time out" from reading your commentaries. They serve no useful purpose for me at present.
It appears that Jimbo drank the koolaid.
I used to work with a woman whose family fled Iran after the jihadis took over. SHe told me, with tears streaming down her face, how Muslim neighbors they considered friends made her uncle, his wife and their children drink boiling tea. It kills you slowly because the tissues slough off and your throat swells to the point you can't breathe. A family friend of hers, a Christian, had a knife tied to her bound hands by the Islamic religious police and they flung her son against her repeatedly, so that she disemboweled him.
The Persians have a chance to take their country back from men such as these, and I hope they do.
That's awful, beyond the pale. However, it's not worth American live, treasury, or freedoms.

Gwennie,
Christian Porn. Never heard this one before...they must be scraping the bottom of the barrel, as "soap" and "lamp shades" already used.
Similarly, scalping was invented by Whites, and then adopted by the Indians. They had their indigenous forms of torture.
"Demonization of the enemy is a propaganda technique used in warfare to portray the opposing side as evil, threatening, and morally corrupt, often reducing complex political or military conflicts to a simplistic 'good versus evil' narrative. This tactic aims to justify violence, mobilize public support, unite allies, and dehumanize the enemy, making killing or harsh actions easier to rationalize.
It is also commonly referred to as dehumanization of the enemy, enemy demonization, or atrocity propaganda, especially when used to spread exaggerated or false stories of enemy brutality. The practice has been documented throughout history—from Ancient Greece to World War I and II, and in modern conflicts—where governments and media frame the enemy as subhuman or demonic."

I was recounting a lived experience. Is a woman telling police about being raped demonizing men, or is she telling them what happened.
Your screed on demonization, while interesting, is completely beside the point. Islam is demonizing itself, all over the planet, by the behavior of its adherents. It is far more effective than anything little ole me could post.
We, as a species, help create the demons that we then fight.
Men and women, both, are and have been 'raped' everywhere and at every time, as have cultures, such as by this Western one that you may be upholding and/or rationalizing/making excuses for.
I've heard that Israel created or helped create Hamas. I wouldn't doubt it, and in different ways/senses than just one...

I was in a meeting of U'wa people who are fighting oil development in Colombia... and [the way] they talk about oil...

“I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested.

Praying this ends very soon 🙏🏻🇺🇸
Me too. The only thing that scares me is history. "This war will be over by Christmas: WW-1, WW-2, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan". 🤔
Yeah, and that this ends well for the US. This suicidal ideation by the Leftists is, well, suicidal ideation.
The Democratic Party sold its soul to the devil decades ago by full-throatedly promoting the killing of babies through all nine months of pregnancy and even the moment of birth. There is something deeply anti-human and self-hating about this enthusiasm for killing our own progeny. It shows a contempt for humanity and a despair of life's possibilitities. That's not far away from a mass death-wish.
The UK is about to join you. They're sneaking the legislation in with the latest Crime and Policing Bill, instead of making it a standalone Bill that people would notice. The House of Lords (the scrutinising chamber) has just approved the decriminalisation of abortion up to and including birth. So you can have your baby at home and then strangle it if the mood takes you. 'Don't agree with abortion - don't have one' doesn't really work, does it, for the baby, who'd probably prefer not to have one.
Anyway, this will doubtless be stage 1, before it's available on the NHS.
"There is something deeply anti-human and self-hating about this enthusiasm for killing our own progeny." Oh dear!
More over-the-top hyperbolic "Right to Live" scare mongering nonsense, Kathy!
Don't agree with abortion ~ don't have one.
It's that easy, my dear
There resistance to aborting themselves is one reason why yanks lead the world in criminality.
Prayer is an act of doubt, Teresa, not an act of faith.
For if you truly trusted your God's plan, you wouldn't ever have to pray for anything.
Just how many times has the Pope prayed for peace in the Holy Land?
That’s working out well, eh.....YEAH RIGHT.
Check the news. DJT TACO'd again. Iran didn't have 'conversations' with him.
and you trust what Iran says because............
"and you trust what Iran says because............"
Because...because I am beginning to doubt Trump's veracity....
yes this post is accurate. trump did taco again and hes delusional about "talks" that never occurred. the poor
guy has lost it.
Since there are I believe 31 separate district commands operating in Iran at present, I am sure the TDS crew can find someone who claims they are the government of Iran and that Orange Hickory had no negotiations with THEM regardless of who is actually in charge or the entity currently considered "the government."
And you know this how?
Unsure he TACO'd, based on the 82nd Airborne Division, and other 'elite forces', possibly getting their 'conscription papers' or whatever it's called to go into battle. And they may even already be on their way, maybe by this Friday ETA.
The 'TACO' is likely a ruse, like other times, like during 'negotiations'.
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

I have been following Kunstler ever since reading The Long Emergency. However, he couldn't be more wrong on his analysis of the war in Iran. For the best reporting on this war and all things geopolitical, go to Judge Napolitano's YouTube channel. He is interviewing multiple "experts" daily including the likes of Professor Mearsheimer, Professor Sacs, Scott Ritter, Col. Macgregor, Alistair Crooke, Col. Davis, Ray McGovern, etc. etc. Iran has been planning this war for decades. They hold the winning hand. The US is creating yet another debacle in the Middle East. Judge Napolitano's deserves a Pulitzer Prize for his reporting.
100%!!!
Jim has checked his brain and now wields his brand new pair of red pom-poms.
-----
I highly recommend "Judging Freedom" with Judge Andrew Napolitano and his stable of top-notch geopolitical analysts: Mcgregor, Wilkerson, Ritter, Johnson, Sachs, Mearsheimer, Blumenthal, Escobar, Maté, Hoh, Kwiatkowski, Freeman, Crooke, Doctorow, Diesen, Giraldi et al.

Yes, completely agree! Judge Napolitano's show is the best to learn what's happening in the war, and the general sh*tshow of US geopolitics.
~ Flame-Broiled Readership ~
What if Jim doesn't have to be right? What if it's about controversy and more readership numbers (and readers verbally flogging each other, etc.), a contrary niche, stuff like that? He could be wrong or he could be right or somewhere in-between, but who cares, such as if it's more interesting, or more money in the pocket for a rainy day, increasing age, failing health or some medical maintenance on the bionic hip, which he's apparently had problems with before? I hear American health care leaves much to be desired and compared with fellow so-called developed nations.

~ TACO Loco ~
Apparently, some branches of the American military have been 'given their papers', which I think means, they're on their way to Iran. As we all should know by now, the US 'negotiates' as a ruse, as they 'set things up'.
Where I used to live, there used to be a hole-in-the-wall resto, called, Taco Loco. Do you know what loco means?
The idea is probably nowhere near freeing Iranians from their evil oppressors, but, rather, to demolish the entire country (case in point: https://www.kunstler.com/p/the-clusterfuck-nation-chronicle-240), which, presumably means a lot more dead innocent Iranians (and of course other people), now or eventually, in worse 'shape' than how they supposedly were during their 'oppression'.
Gaza's 'blind-eye' demolishment is/was an example for all to see.
Sociopaths have no qualms like that.
The racism on display on this blog and in the comments is astounding. With respect Mr. Kunstler, you went off a cliff on the topic of the ME when you seemed A-Okay with bombing mostly unarmed, helpless populations into oblivion. It’s okay as long as it’s Arabs or Persians seems to be the vibe here. Your moral/tribal blind spot shows. I will make a prediction, when this is over we won’t have a base in the Middle East. The Iranians will obtain a nuclear weapon, because if you have one, people will leave you alone. I think we are being lied to by our so-called leaders. Funny we haven’t heard anything much about those aircraft carriers. I have a feeling they were badly damaged and had to limp back to the shipyard for repairs.
You are correct, sir.
Can’t end without total victory. If they maintain power we will be back here in 10 years.
are you speaking of iran or israel? I'm serious
By that statement, you are not serious, you are showing ignorance.
Far less actually, but ten years is usually the allotted time for the Muslims to re-arm and resume hostilities.
Robert Spencer of Jihadwatch has written extensively on this subject.
10? How about next year as soon as Russia rearms them and they rearm Hamas and Hezbollah? Until the regime is on the bottom of the Gulf, Iran will do what it can to disrupt the world so they will be in charge. Not on Trump’s watch.
And then on to Turkey? Israel says Turkey is the next Iran. President Netanyahu and vice President Trump are going to get us nuked. There is obviously no dealing with us.
