Premium Member And yet the sun will rise

It seems there was no rampant fraud;
by neither was I was over-awed - 
my guy’s the one who parked the bear at night.

The masses are reacting how?
The market play is plywood now
with businesses in blue states boarding tight.

It seems Iran has not attacked,
that’s not conjecture, just a fact.
That Netan yahoo’s fired a minister.

The press now has its headline dreams
with every move seen as extreme
as even garbage trucks are sinister.

The market’s poised for monster gains;
the underlying debt remains
as our collective heads are in the sand.

And yet the sun will rise today
upon the world, the USA,
and last I checked, it’s God who’s in command.

          Bye-bye, Benny Gantz
            He says, ‘Just give peace a chance’  
 
          Israel has, since 2005 
            Left Gaza ~ lucky to still be alive



          ____________________________________ 
          Gantz is a minister in Israeli P.M. Bibi Netan-
          yahu's Cabinet... Gazans elected Hamas to be 
          its ruling political party in 2006. Since then, 
          Hamas has targeted Israel with dozens of 
          terror attacks, and kept Gaza on the brink 
          of collapse, thanks to its corrupt officials.

Mr Red Line

mr. red line

Netan****ingnutstanyahu
drawing his 
red line on
a cartoon bomb
in front of the UN,
in front of the world,
in front of your very
eyes, if you
give a *****at all &
he will not stop the
settlements & he will
not stop strangling the
last bits of life out of
Gaza & he will not 
pause for even a moment’s
breath from beating 
on the war drum,
with the neck of 
whatever figurehead “wins”
in November---
because it’s ok for Israel
to have nukes but not the 
rest of the world, because it’s
ok for Israel to have the 
backing of the world’s
policeman (but not the
rest of the world)---
yes, as long as the empire
has a military foothold in the
Middle East, as long as 
there is enough might there
to squeeze every last drop
of oil out of the region,
we will all go on listening
to this maniac bring us 
closer to a great war
every single day, 
preaching the same
insanity that he has been
since 1992.
