WAR ALL THE TIME - Charles Bukowski

Come you masters of war You that build the big guns You that build the death planes You that build all the bombs You that hide behind walls You that hide behind desks ... - Bob Dylan

As of eight o’clock Eastern Daylight Time Saturday evening the United States of America is actively involved in the war between Israel and Iran.

I am going to listen and watch and see what happens. At this point in time none of us know anything except that bombs were dropped on three nuclear sights in Iran and the planes are returning home. We know this because Donald J. Trump, Marco Rubio, and Pete Hegseth have told us so. So you see what I mean when I say none of us know anything. Anything we can trust. Without more information everything is guess work. There are any number of people who have been thinking about the Middle East and the forces at work there for a very long time. Most of them seem to be in shock right now. But I said I was going to wait and see and that is what I am going to do.

Sleep well. You are safe for now. Tomorrow is another day as, Scarlett says at the end of Gone With the Wind.
