    November 3, 2018

    Vienna has always been a fertile soil for artists and intellectuals, and a lot of the creativity and big ideas have happened first in the city’s charming coffeehouses. There’s something special about these places that makes them conducive to creativity. Have you ever wondered where the great creatives of the past sipped their coffees, smoked their cigars, played a game of chess, and probably came up with their big ideas and masterpieces?

    Mornin’ all. Slightly overcast here, but clearing off. The news is dismal. Looks like we will be changing the United States of America to Big Haiti since all of Haiti is moving here. Wonderful. :\ Well, I have chores to do and then my friend is taking me out to lunch because today is a special day. So, See Ya Later, Alligators.

    Biden Administration Blocks Rescue of Persecuted Christians from Afghanistan
    by Raymond Ibrahim – September 17, 2021

    “The State Department has blocked us every step of the way. The State Department and the White House have been the biggest problem.  Everyone else, everyone else, has been working together, putting aside differences and trying to get these people to safety. The State Department and the White House have blocked us every single step of the way. In fact, an ambassador was called in Macedonia last night and told not to accept any of these people… We have to send people into even greater danger to try to smuggle these Christians out, who are marked not just for death, but to be set on fire alive because they’re converted Christians.”   — Glenn Beck, Tucker Carlson Tonight, August 26, 2021.

    Although nearly 80 percent of all persecution Christians experience around the globe is committed in the Islamic world, Afghanistan is actually the worst of all Muslim nations.

    According to the World Watch List, which ranks the 50 nations in which Christians are most persecuted for their faith, Afghanistan is the second-worst nation in the world, followed on the heels of the worst nation, North Korea…. That report was published nine months ago — when a U.S.-supported government ran Afghanistan. Since then, matters have only significantly worsened for Christians….

    Even worse, because U.S. and Western leadership are careful not to show any interest in Christian minorities — a sentiment that goes hand in hand with Western acquiescence to “Islamic sensibilities” — they are more prone to turn a blind eye to the persecution of Christians than even some Muslim governments.

    The Taliban Now Have Encrypted Comms – Courtesy Of Joe Biden
    by Charles “Sam” Faddis September 17, 2021

    Blinken can say whatever he wants. Lies and misrepresentations will not change the awful truth. We have created a terrorist super state and we have handed it capabilities no terrorist group has ever dreamed of. We will pay the price. It’s only a matter of when.

    Faddis is a former CIA officer and knows whereof he speaks.

    I love this lady. She is based in Istanbul, and her cooking videos are terrific. This is how she makes easy hummus.
