Wonderful news. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Israel Eliminated 180 Hezbollah Jihadis in One Minute Israel Defense Forces (IDF) coordinated its Friday round of strikes on Hezbollah terrorists so precisely that they took out nearly 200 terrorists within a minute's time. After Iranian terror proxy Hezbollah marked the ceasefire by immediately bombarding Israeli civilians, the IDF, of course, struck back. And completely contrary to all the propaganda that has been circulating nonstop from Jew-haters and Islamic terrorists online, Israel is not targeting Lebanese civilians; it is targeting Hezbollah operatives. The only reason Israel has to conduct some operations in "civilian" areas is that Hezbollah, like Hamas, uses civilians and their infrastructure as human shields. In the post below, the IDF noted its efforts to avoid civilian casualties. [...] https://pjmedia.com/catherinesalgado/2026/04/10/israel-eliminated-180-hezbollah-jihadis-in-one-minute-n4951669

A Cease-fire that Changes Nothing—and Risks Everything On Tuesday evening, President Trump announced a two-week cease-fire with Iran, pulling back from strikes he had threatened would kill "a whole civilization." The deal asked one thing of Tehran: reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Tehran appeared to agree. By Wednesday morning, the strait was closed again. Anyone acquainted with this regime's forty-seven-year record of treating agreements as tactical instruments rather than binding commitments should have seen this coming.

Clever wording that I'll have to remember!

Thrilling (?) Friday non-ES report, see man: Breakfasted/skoolbused Mini-B., groggy Two Guys man. Mini-B. seems to have an outright cold, runny nose wee man man. Instead of seeking an immediate siesta, we dallied on Internet, dally we man. We failed to drink or ingest anything, bad move man. When finally set out on ES trail, felt lousy, but had to go man. It soon began to monsoon in large segments, add to wonderful ambience man. We skipped an intermediate errand, good move man. By end of Mama T-B.'s call outside Many'rd ES, we were shivering/chattering, rigorous we man. Fever at casa was exactly Many00 F., felt worse than that man. Ingested nothing but HSM Tylenol & embedded ourself on heating pad, very uncomfortable we man. Two-hour "siesta" rather restless & quite sweaty, every pore opened man. But after all that, fever still precisely Many00 F., man. Breakfast/lunch/din-din was Costco angusburgers, ingest traditional Friday fare Two Guys man. Mini-B. gaming with amigo, no movie night man. We still felt terrible, no movie night man. Took Heap Strong antibiotic, presciently Rx'd by doc one week ago man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. Must skip GS-ing/ES-ing Saturday, we man. This includes one mass GS that we never miss, man. And that was/is our thrilling Friday, report we man.

Friday ES report, see man: We T-B.-mobiled by all Many, si man. The first ES yielded nothing, skunked man. The 2nd ES could not really be found in office park amidst the monsoon upon arrival, no man. We stopped in front of the Many'rd ES & Mama T-B. called, disconsolate aysheep senior she man man. At end of half-hour call, was monsooning so badly that we simply returned to the casa, oh well man. Total = $0

Gracias, si mam ma'am. We guess so, although we have last Friday's fever again, one stinkin' week between 'em and 2 lost weekends man. No one is worse, sorry man. Niece age precised, see and si and mam ma'am!

This is truly insightful -- I was spellbound through the whole thing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It May Not Be a Ceasefire. It Might Be a Strategic Pause. I could spend a lot of this column musing about the absolute whiplash gripping the American and global commentariat surrounding the announcement of a ceasefire in the Iran War Tuesday evening. Instead, I'm going to let Ace of Spades knock that out for us, because his treatment of the instant pivot from Trump The Barbarian Civilization Killer to Trump The Cowardly P____ Who Caved To Iran was as good as I've seen: Remember, the "smart people" are also the "thoughtful" and "responsible" people. They have all the answers, they'll tell you. They definitely do not simply spam out random disingenuous claims completely incompatible with each other as the day's news cycle might require. David Strom wrote about this. I've seen it all over myself. The "nuke" thing was absurd. Trump threatened to use a top-secret conventional weapon the world had never seen before. What was it? I dunno. Maybe some kind of non-nuclear EMP to take out the power plants without harming the child human shields Iran stuffed them with? At no point did he threaten or imply a threat to use a nuke. Now I might think "Trump is making up some secret uber-weapon," but then again, Delta Force does seem to have unleashed absolute top-secret Sci-Fi weaponry in the Venezuela Snatch-and-Stash operation. But he never hinted at a nuke. But the "reasonable," "responsible," "thoughtful" people — you know, the really "smart" people you can rely upon for their intelligence and probity and smooth emotional restraint — all just went on twitter and did what they usually do, shriek lies that no one including themselves believes.

EYE CHART A Polish immigrant went to the DMV to apply for a driver's license. First, he had to take an eyesight test. The optician showed him a card with the letters CZWIXNOSTACZYK. "Can you read this?" the optician asked? "Read it?!" said the Polish immigrant. "I KNOW the guy!"

Sounds like it's beyond too far gone. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Islamification of Britain In Britain, March meant Ramadan. My local supermarket advised me to "Make this holy month meaningful" and offered "everything you need for Iftar, Suhoor, and beyond," including a range of halal foods. At televised Premiership football matches, play stopped to allow Muslim players to break their fast. Days before Eid, Muslims gathered in London's Trafalgar Square to pray in public. The Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, hailed the "power of being Muslim" as he addressed thousands at the "biggest Iftar in the Western world." It's not that Britons have undergone mass conversion to Islam or, for the most part, have a deep interest in religious practices. Indeed, a leading politician sparked debate by condemning London's mass public prayer gathering, and boos rang out around the stadium when a big screen announced that the match between Leeds and Manchester City would pause at sunset to allow Muslim players to break their fasts. Rather, a growing Muslim population has become more confident in asserting its identity, while Britain's political and cultural elite increasingly insists upon respect for Islam as a show of support for the supposedly progressive values of diversity, multiculturalism, and anti-racism. The result is not just tolerance of Muslims but an extending Islamification of all aspects of British society. [...] https://www.city-journal.org/article/uk-britain-islam-muslims-free-speech?skip=1

Great observation by CC. These filters enable the Moderation team to investigate new accounts and posters with even more attention, in turn enabling us to nuke those as required. Time for a gentle reminder: We certainly appreciate reports of spammers that you see before we do. When one spammer posts multiple times, please report only ONE spam post from that spammer. We ban spammers, not posts, meaning that once we ban a spammer, all of his posts then disappear. It's not necessary to report every spam post made by one spammer. Thanks for your continuing help!

With everything in this process, the firm rule is to read carefully, interpret literally, and respond completely & accurately. We can't say whether you'll get an RFE; however, you might reconsider your involvement with this lawyer before he genuinely hoses anything else.
