Putin's In A Pickle
Putin has gotten himself in quite a pickle!
By ruthlessly attacking Ukraine, unprovoked, and unleashing h*ll against a sovereign nation including its core infrastructure and civilization population and even threatening nuclear war, Putin has made himself into the world's enemy #1.
Will dictator Putin take Russia down the pickle hole with him or will the Russian people finally toss out this rotten pickle and act like respectable and civilized nation again? ;-)

Bacteria Vs. Virus--The Cure!
The enemy of my enemy is my friend
Both bacteria and viruses are enemies of people in that they often make us sick.
If they can make us sick, why can't they be used to fight and make each other sick (i.e. destroy each other).
Thus, bacteria can be our friend, if we use them to destroy viruses, like Coronavirus.
Why can't we create a "virus-eating bacteria" (and vice versa "bacteria-eating virus") to destroy these little monsters that are infecting and killing us?
Let our enemies kill each other! ;-)

America, Who Are Our Real Friends?
This is what Israel, a longtime and proven true friend and ally of the United States does:
Iranian Plot on U.S. Possibly Thwarted Due To Israeli Intelligence.
These are perhaps the types of things that non-friends of the United States do:
- Attacks pro-Israel congressional representatives as having "dual loyalty."
- Blame the U.S. for the crisis in Venezuela and back Socialist dictator Maduro.
- Falsely blame the U.S. for killing thousands in Somalia.
- Crassly describe the 9/11 terrorist attack on the U.S. as "someone did something."
- Mock the U.S. for fearing terrorists, Al Qaeda.
- Defend hundreds of indiscriminate terror missile attacks on Israeli civilians by Hamas.
- Urge the release of jailed terrorist leader of the Muslim Brotherhood.
- Condemned by the House of Representatives for anti-Semitism.
- Attacks credibility of U.S. for criticizing Iranian human rights abuses.

G-d Protects Us - Happy 2018!
All these beautiful hamsas!
Hamsas are traditional symbols of G-d's protection and to ward off the evil.
These were some very beautiful ones.
Some say that it is symbolic of the hand of Miriam, Moses' sister, raised in a protective stance over the people.
Five fingers are like the five books of the Torah and a reminder to use all five of our senses in worshipping and praising G-d.
Talking to someone yesterday about surviving in the face of some very difficult challenges, she said to me:
"Remember, just because the adversary is powerful, you are the David to the Goliath!"
With G-d's help and blessings, even a little David can slay the giant evil Goliath.
For the New Year of 2018 and forward, G-d should bless us and protect us, shine his face upon us and be gracious unto us, lift up his countenance upon us, and give us peace!
The L-rd is the ultimate strength and justice and in front of Him no evil will stand.
Our faith may be tested, but from it, we will come out smarter, stronger, and better souls, as G-d teaches us to look always to the Heavens where all good emanates. ;-)

The Easy Way or The Hard Way
"War is an extension of politics by other means."
There is diplomacy and then there is war!
- Diplomacy is soft power--talking, persuading, negotiating, and compromise.
- War is hard power--fighting/combat using kinetic or cyber-based means.
When diplomacy fails, then war is what's left to compel the enemy to come around to your way of thinking and do your will.
As they say, there's the easy way or the hard way--that's the dual before the duel.
Either way it gets to resolution. ;-)

Daddy Long Legs Exposed
Like everyone else, I've had the opportunity to see one of these, but never two in such a compromising pose.
The other day watching a action movie, one character asks another, "So which are you scared of--snakes or spiders? Everyone is scared of one or the other."
The CIA lady says: "Spiders" and later admits, she lied.
The Army Ranger lady says: "I'm not scared of anything."
Two different philosophies on defeating the enemy--do you overcome them with strength, courage, and bravado or perhaps you mislead them with deceit and cunning or with both approaches.
In any case, the other saying that this photo reminds me of from childhood is "bees do it, birds do it" and now I know that spiders do it too. :-)
