Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Thanks for the Past Couple of Years

    Here’s an extra-large thank you to Israel and Ukraine
       who have fought the West’s wars for them
    holding Iran and its proxies, and Putin’s Russia at bay

    Imagine if Putin was now attacking the Baltics or Poland
       or if Jerusalem and Israel, Iran had overrun

    Of course, then the West could stop obsessing about gender and race
       as criminal regimes spat missiles and drones in her soft, fleshy face

John Read January 5, 2025 at 9:58 AM All it takes for evil to flourish, is for good men to do nothing, it's time the west woke up to what's going on. Sadly in the UK we have a two tier Prime minister he's full of s..t.

David Fisher January 3, 2025 at 4:13 PM Nice contrasting poetic discussion, Gershon; that we like to pipe in our two cents about, too. I don't think most people would want their stock portfolio or real estate values to drop, but Putin and company coincidentally(I think not) give the US plenty of needed(not for the children this time) money printing and digitalization firepower. If that fails, maybe they'll roll out flocks of bird flu and plenty of money to fix it! Gershon Wolf January 4, 2025 at 8:06 PM With inflation, we are now piping in three cents, maybe even a nickel soon...

Terry Flood January 3, 2025 at 3:36 PM Well put, GW. Our governments brag about all the help they’re giving and then sit back and let those two nations fight those tyrannical regimes alone. I don’t want to be in a country at war… but I cannot reconcile that with letting David take on Goliath on our behalf. Mind you, I fear today’s western soldiers wouldn’t march forth without Shiny boots and matching handbags… oh… and a pocket mirror. Gershon Wolf January 4, 2025 at 8:10 PM ... And let's not forget the MAIN THING: Transgender Port-a-Potties and Outhouses!

Kim Rodrigues January 3, 2025 at 12:25 PM This is so true! People don’t realize what is at stake. We all live in this world…let us live in peace! Hugs Gershon Wolf January 4, 2025 at 8:17 PM These wars should have been over long ago. But the West has forgotten that the objective of war is to win.

Michael Tor January 3, 2025 at 8:44 AM Great truths written here Gershon. This is what is wrong with America they are focused on Tampon Tim"s sick agenda and criminal Hunter Biden"s treason deals with China, instead of what is important to America's allies. It makes you sick... Gershon Wolf January 4, 2025 at 8:21 PM America and the West have forgotten that the objective of any war is to win it.

Akham Nilabirdhwaja Singh January 3, 2025 at 2:29 AM Focussing on internal social debates ,about gender and race be stopped while serious geopolitical threats emergency globally.True. Gershon Wolf January 4, 2025 at 8:21 PM Absolutely right, Akham. Very sad.

Tom Cunningham January 2, 2025 at 11:12 PM Well said Gershon, Russia, Iran and Nth Korea, the axis of evil President Bush called it. It's about time the west manned up and gave them all a bloody nose. We live in hope. Tom Gershon Wolf January 4, 2025 at 8:22 PM How about a knockout punch for each one of the above-named, Tom?
