Down the Drain

Taliban knocking on doors in Afghanistan Trouble brewing in Pakistan China hints at attacking Taiwan Dare we hope Taiwan can hang on All the while Mr. Kim launches rockets North Koreans suffer, so he has deep pockets While we are tied up with Ukraine The rest of the world goes down the drain

So many things are happening, it is trumping the pandemic.

Right. If Xi, Kim and Khomeini are free to join Mr. Putin, Europe and America are duck-soup. Like shooting fish in a barrel. ~ A dangerous, troubling era has started. And Biden focuses on passing a 3 trillion 'Build Back America' inflation-expander -- when our economy has already overheated. He caved to the Progressives. Shrug, gw

Trump would certainly applaud Xi Jingping appropriating Taiwan, but Kim Jong-Un appears only interested in blowing things to smithereens, and his pockets are filled with YOUR plundered money. But investors don't care one whit as they can reap enormous profits from conflict! Aloha!

I with Tom, gw. I just think our CIA should get on the stick and do some quiet assassinating! I can't believe I just wrote this. I hear the knocking on my door.....if you don't hear from me anymore.........

I believe that you wrote it. It's only a shame that our CIA ain't worth a pot to pee in anymore. They probably should hire the Israeli Mossad to take care of Xi, Kim, and the Khomeini. Putin's going to kill himself sooner or later. No use losing men going after him. :) gw

So true Gershon, the world has gone mad. Those power mad lunatics should be taken out for the good of all mankind. Tom

I agree, Tom. See my reply to Milt, right above this one. Thanks, gw
