Western Rifle Shooters – by Matthew Bracken, July 30, 2010

A second civil war in the United States would be an unparalleled disaster. Nobody who is sane and who has studied modern civil wars from Spain to Lebanon to the Balkans and beyond would ever wish to see one occur. But if political, cultural and demographic trends are sweeping us toward that unhappy destiny, it would be wise to at least cast a weather eye over the possible terrain.

First, a caveat. I am not going to waste our time making politically-correct genuflections after every controversial sentence, because this essay is intended to be read by mature and rational adults.   Continue reading “The CW2 Cube — Mapping The Meta-Terrain Of Civil War Two”

Netanyahu heads Israel’s most extremist government in history. He deplores peace and stability.

Permanent war on Palestine is official policy. So is treating Arabs the way Hitler treated Jews.

Nothing Netanyahu says is credible. He agrees to one thing. He does another. How anyone stands him, they’ll have to explain. Some past and present Israeli officials don’t trust him.    Continue reading “Bibi – Hate-Mongering Racist, Mass Murderer, Serial Liar”

We should never forget those who died in the wars the Bankers and Israel started. Nor should we forget the hundreds of millions of human beings who starved to death because Bankers are allowed to charge us interest on money they created out of nothing. We do know that Foundations say billions of lives will be lost when the dollar, the pound, the yen and the euro collapse.

Human beings are social animals and we ought never to lose sight of the afflictions visited upon us by the greed and the insanity of those who have a license to print our money and the ability to re-write our history.   Continue reading “In Memoriam For Those Who Have Died And Will Die in Wars for The Bankers And For Israel.”

Many accounts will praise the sacrifices and deeds of those who fought in the American wars. Some versions will emotionally express their thanks and respect, while others will list their heroic actions. There is another viewpoint that seldom gets the attention that it deserves. Simply put, what is the true reason that all this blood was shed and the meaning of continued torment that follows, when the guns are silenced? Some will say, we just need to revere those who served. Others may dare to ask, why and what for?   Continue reading “What Memorial Day Do You Honor?”

Paper bags of seed drying in the mudroom.A Way to Garden

AROUND NOW, THE HOOKS on my mudroom walls offer no space for coats (though the weather hints I’ll be needing mine). Too many paper shopping bags are hanging there instead (photo above), one after another with faded, upside-down plants inside, meant to let go of their increasingly dry seed.  That’s my primitive tactic, but there are better ways to save seed, and the Organic Seed Alliance shares them—from which variety you grow with eventual saving in mind, to maintaining that crop in the garden, to drying and even storing it–in a free, 30-page book-like pdf download loaded with both the botanical science and sensible tips, too.     Continue reading “Free to download, an expert guide to seed-saving”
