re A geopolitical earthquake just hit the Mideast

The Iranians who are second to none in their hatred of the Jews, have, by their own policies, managed to get Muslim countries to ally with Israel against them.

Before the ayatollahs came to power, Muslims aligning with Jews was unthinkable.

Perhaps it's just me, but it looks like the hand of Providence is behind all this.

"It was Trump’s peace plan drawn up by Jared Kushner, and their willingness to stick with it, that actually created the raw material for this breakthrough.... This deal will certainly encourage the other gulf sheikhdoms — Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia — all of which have had covert and overt business and intelligence dealings with Israel, to follow the Emirates’ lead."

Look at the content supporting Obama's Nobel Prize, and reconcile yourself that Donald Trump will likely never even be nominated for one, even with his Middle East accomplishments.

One thing I'll say for this style of leadership: Trump moves swiftly and decisively, and there's a benefit to this, understood by many successful leaders: People are often forced to fall in line, just trying to keep up with you. Teddy R. did the same kind of thing.

The politicians know this. There is another reason why they want everyone to submit.

Re: Math Professor: The '2+2=4 Trope ... Reeks of White Supremacist Patriarchy'

Most people who live in America really just want to have a decent life. They don't want all the political hassle. But its reached a point where people can no longer turn away. The attack upon the West is everywhere. So I think that it's time to admit that there is no "middle ground". Communists don't negotiate. And for that reason, we might as well acknowledge that the university system has no future. None at all. Those schools will have to be buried; and then new centers of learning will rise. Sometimes the cancer is so deep that you have to amputate.
