@LORWEN108 Precisely, love the advice and love listening to Hubberman, I noticed much of the advice relates to focus on something other than yourself and parenthood is a heavy dose of that
@glennbeck Your daily is a Bentley and you wear Polo RRL or Purple Label almost exclusively…and I like you, but bet I have a conspiracy on why you can afford it and how fast you couldn’t if you didn’t support…
"The temple will never be rebuilt. Julian the Apostate tried to rebuild it and it was destroyed in the process. Christ put an end to the Jewish sacrifice on purpose — he gave them one generation to convert to Christianity, and when they didn't, he put an end to their sacrifice. There hasn't been practicing Jews in 2,000 years because the temple hasn't been around."
As always I only support military action anywhere, in any context, if it directly serves the interests of American citizens. It’s troubling that the arguments we’re hearing for this war in Iran, including from Trump himself, seem to revolve primarily around “bringing freedom to the Iranian people.” As Americans, the freedom of Iranians is not our responsibility. If a single American life is lost in the service of that goal, it will be a travesty.
What nobody has even come close to sufficiently explaining is how this war will first and foremost directly benefit American citizens. That is a case that needed to have been made clearly and convincingly before this move, and it wasn’t. We’re also told how this will benefit Israel, and I’m sure it will. But Israel is not America. What does it do for America? How does it help us? That needs to be explained to us. And it isn’t “panicking” or demonstrating “disloyalty” to demand those very basic answers about how American tax money, and potentially American lives, are being spent.
We hear about the danger of a nuclear Iran, but that’s odd because we were told that Iran’s nuclear capabilities had already been set back decades. We hear that this war will be over quickly and easily because Iran is powerless, which I hope and pray is the case, and maybe it will be. But that’s odd, too, because if Iran is such a paper tiger then how were they a danger to us in the first place? It seems hard to argue both that Iran is an existential threat to the United States and that we can topple them in 20 minutes with no casualties or negative downstream effects.
Also the political calculation really matters here. A huge majority of American oppose this. That’s just a fact. If it costs Republicans in 26 and 28, then, no matter how things work out in Iran, it will not have been worth it. A free Iran at the cost of Democrat rule here at home is a bad deal. A free Iran for an unfree America would be just about the worst trade of the century.
I’m praying for our great country today.
