Roanoke Flooding A Monument To Stupidity
-
So much for the so called 'endangered species act':
4-inches of Rain yet-again overwhelmed the so called $72-Million Flood Control of the Roanoke “Log-Perch & Snail-Darter” River that was actually river bank environmental-beautification ---- Not 'Flood Control'!

Bill Clinton THE Origin Of The Ukraine Debacle?
-
Some perspective on the current pathetic Ukrainian Capitulation.
In business it’s called a ‘hostile take-over’ or ‘Barbarians at the gates!
-
Did Bill Clinton Seal Ukraine’s Fate in 1994?
http://roanokeslant.blogspot.com/2022/03/bill-clinton-sealed-ukraines-fate-1994.html
-
After the Soviet Empire demise, executed by Pres Reagan, satellite-Ukraine had possession of large numbers of nuclear-warhead long-range missiles and the capability to launch them.
-
Bill Clinton in 1994 ‘negotiated-demanded’ that Ukraine give-up’ their’ nuclear weapons and supporting missiles to Russia with
“the commitment that the US would insure their national security!”
(for as long as the sun will shine and the rivers will flow)

Trump Putin Meeting: Should Have Used Skype
-
Putin Wins!
Know when to hold them -- when to fold them
Kenny Rogers - The Gambler
-
-
The Alaska Trump-Putin get-together was yet another failed effort to convert a really bad person into a reasonably good person who would stop their war of aggression upon Ukraine.
Another failed exorcism intervention!
Reflections of Neville Chamberlain and Hitler on Poland.
Putin methodically moving further into Ukraine.
Putin forces are wearing down and diminishing the Ukraine army in a war of attrition.
Reflections of China intervention into US-Korean war – back to the 38th.
Trump has announced disengagement of direct US support for Ukraine.
NATO will Not confront Russia militarily on behalf of Ukraine.
The concept that financial and trade embargos will change Russia’s war activity are misconceived. Russia has great depth of resources and manpower and has China on their side – talk about resources!
The B2 flyover and ground-displays were inappropriate. Russia is Not Iran.
-
Best Bad Outcome:
Zelenskyy needs to get with Putin and negotiate the best-worst deal he can make knowing full well Putin will invade-advance again at his time of choice.

Putin comes to the old Russian territory of Alaska to meet with Trump to explain to Trump that his war against Ukraine will continue and here is a basket of ‘goodies’ to bribe the US and Western countries into complacency and acceptance,
ie: ‘rape is inevitable so relax and enjoy’.
Also some ‘saber rattling’ to intimidate the West into the fear of what Russia is capable of, ie, 1945 Germany.
Trump’s ‘big step back’ from Ukraine with his ‘FDR arsenal of freedom’ (apparently his intent is to make western Europe THE war leaders) has probably and rightfully emboldened Putin who has diluted the meeting objective into a discussion of nuclear weapons --- how foreboding is that!

“I am deeply concerned with the allegations that Fairfax County Public Schools officials arranged for minors to get abortions without parental consent and may have misused public funds to pay for them,” Mr. Youngkin said. “I am directing the Virginia State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation to open a full criminal investigation into the matter immediately.”
Reports online indicated that two students at Centreville High School turned over evidence that school staff had facilitated their abortions.

President Trump announced Monday that he would deploy about 800 National Guard troops to the District of Columbia and placed the city’s police department under emergency federal control in an unprecedented move to combat crime in the nation’s capital and remove homeless encampments.
“Our capital city has been overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals, roving mobs of wild youth, drugged-out maniacs and homeless people, and we’re not going to let it happen anymore.

Israel Killed Five Al Jazeera Journalists in Airstrike, Network Says
Israel accuses Anas Al-Sharif, one of Gaza’s most prominent journalists, of heading Hamas cell, allegations his network denies
https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/israel-killed-five-al-jazeera-journalists-in-airstrike-network-says-a8dd7934?mod=hp_lead_pos6
An Israeli airstrike killed five Al Jazeera journalists, including one of the most prominent reporting from Gaza, the network said Monday.
The Israeli military confirmed it targeted Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al-Sharif in a strike Sunday night, accusing him of being a member of Hamas’s military wing who headed a cell and was linked to rocket attacks against Israel.
Israel’s military has long alleged Al-Sharif was a member of Hamas’s military wing. In October, it named him as one of six Al Jazeera journalists it said were identified as militants by documents it found in Gaza. The military said the documents included spreadsheets of Hamas operatives that appeared to show Al-Sharif enlisted with the militant group in 2013.

Reflection: They shot spy Mata Hari didn’t they!

U.S. District (Democrat) Judge Paul A. Engelmayer said anyone who was following the Jeffrey Epstein case would "learn next to nothing new" by reading the grand jury materials.
Supporters of President Donald Trump have pushed for more disclosures related to Jeffrey Epstein and his co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell.

In the Artillery this is referred to as a: “Friendly Fire Incident”.

The "former-Russian Alaska" meeting is indeed a key juncture for war/peace.
The US PravdaMedia have totally gone ‘off the rails’ with their AntiTrump Jihad – how sad is that at a time like this!

Trump and Putin to meet in Alaska for Ukraine talks next week
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1dxed639n7o
The announcement of the meeting came just hours after Trump had signaled that Ukraine might have to cede territory in order to end the war, which began with Russia's full-scale invasion of its neighbor in February 2022.
Moscow has failed to achieve a decisive breakthrough in its full-scale invasion, but occupies around 20% of Ukraine's territory. Ukrainian offensives, meanwhile, have not pushed the Russian forces back.

After observing women’s attire on TV and the InterNet, it’s difficult to comprehend the media hype over Sydney Sweeney, totally covered with blue-jeans, all be it with a ‘come hither look’.
Apparently the reference to genes in a jeans ad was cause for major woke radical political comments and slander.
Really! Lefties view would have been supportive if only the model were homosexual!

Sydney Sweeney, White supremacist

In case you weren’t paying attention, the ad shows Ms. Sweeney reclining while zipping up a pair of jeans and flashing a little cleavage. What sparked the woke left’s attention and outrage was the ad copy, which invoked a double meaning: “It’s not just good genes. Sydney Sweeney has great jeans.” Critics claim the ad promotes eugenics.
Critics also began likening the reference to genes, instead of jeans, to the pursuit of a master race by the Nazis.

Israel To Finish Hamas

Israel's security cabinet approves plan to take control of Gaza City
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-approves-plan-take-control-gaza-city-2025-08-08/
'Israel's security cabinet approved a plan on Friday to take control of Gaza City, a move expanding military operations in the shattered Palestinian territory despite growing criticism at home and abroad over the almost two-year-old war.
Far-right allies in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition have been pushing for a total takeover of Gaza as part of his vow to eradicate Hamas militants, though the military has warned this could endanger the lives of remaining hostages held by the group.'

Israel, in Face of Hamas’s Refusal To Release the Hostages It Is Holding, Decides To ‘Occupy’ Gaza Strip

Israel has pursued a ‘Scorched Earth War’ against Hamas since the Oct 7th massacre.
Their tactics have focused on massive destruction of the Gaza infrastructure including the Hamas assets included therein.
Much of Gaza now looks like Berlin and Hamburg after WW2.
All this being done with a major focus on minimizing loss of Israeli troops and assets and concern for the Hostages.
It now appears Israel is about to engage in ‘find, fix, fight, finish’ infantry tactics.
WW2’s tunnel warfare on ‘Iwo Jima and Mt. Suribachi’ was brutal and a likely analog to Gaza’s tunnel warfare.
To ‘end the war’ Hamas must be destroyed with any survivors subject to the WW2 type War Crimes Tribunals.
Israel must ensure that ‘the solution’ going forward precludes Hamas-type entities from ever gaining control of the Gaza territory again.

Hamas is down to it’s last dozen live Sept7-Hostages and it’s space and fighters are limited – time to use propaganda and fellow-travelers to get a favorable ending to prepare for another war. Let’s do all this again in just a few years’ time!
Where’s the WW2 “Unconditional Surrender” and follow-up Nuremburg Trials for the Oct 7th War Crimes.

Trump officials visit Gaza aid sites as international community pressures Israel
'Hamas hates GHF [because] it gets food to [people without] it being looted by Hamas,' Huckabee wrote on X
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-officials-visit-gaza-aid-sites-international-community-pressures-israel
U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff visited Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) sites amid controversy over the distribution of aid in the Strip.
"Went into Gaza today [and] observed humanitarian food program by U.S.-launched GHF. Hamas hates GHF [because] it gets food to [people without] it being looted by Hamas. Over 100 MILLION meals served in 2 months," Huckabee wrote on X. In a separate post, Huckabee hailed GHF’s work as "an incredible feat."

President Trump on Thursday called for Hamas to end the crisis in Gaza by surrendering and releasing its Israeli hostages.
The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has been escalating, with Israel and the terrorist group Hamas blaming each other for shortages of food and other necessities.
“The fastest way to end the Humanitarian Crises in Gaza is for Hamas to SURRENDER AND RELEASE THE HOSTAGES!!!” Mr. Trump wrote on social media.

Let the Palestinians have their state on the French Riviera

French President Emmanuel Macron’s announcement that France will recognize a Palestinian state is another chapter in the long, lamentable history of French antisemitism, which includes the Dreyfus affair, Vichy’s complicity in the Holocaust and the current wave of Muslim antisemitism rocking the republic.
On the bright side, as President Trump puts it, “What Macron says is irrelevant. It won’t change anything.”
