He appears to be a bit of a sensationalist. Newmed, go to church! (committee ;),.. seriously, can you name one war that was successful in the sense of a surgeon just cutting in enough to get the tumor and then stitches. think more of that wind storm scheduled for tomorrow snapping off huge trees that destroy your house. why did the repugs cozy up to putin so much during trump. to me, that was the biggest shock of the four years, the open pumping of american oligarchs, etc,.. war is a huge threat to that gravy train. whether seymour is another jordan doesn't matter, there are still facts that exist outside the dem repug matrix.
the act of war thing doesn't really make sense after the war was already started and continues - put on the news .. there is a war outside ur door. what was that dystopian movie where people /soldiers come back from those ever nearing battles to a bubble of distractions.. a little concerned.
Seymour Myron "Sy" Hersh (born April 8, 1937) is an American investigative journalist, and political writer.[6]
Hersh first gained recognition in 1969 for exposing the My Lai Massacre and its cover-up during the Vietnam War, for which he received the 1970 Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting. During the 1970s, Hersh covered the Watergate scandal for The New York Times and revealed the clandestine bombing of Cambodia. In 2004, he reported on the U.S. military's mistreatment of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison. He has also won two National Magazine Awards and five George Polk Awards. In 2004, he received the George Orwell Award.[7]
Hersh has accused the Obama administration of lying about the events surrounding the death of Osama bin Laden, and disputed the claim that the Assad regime used chemical weapons on civilians in the Syrian Civil War. Both assertions have stirred controversy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seymour_Hersh

Politicians are masters of unintended consequences. It appears 2023 share buybacks are already on pace to double over 2022.
Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices, thinks 2023 could be the first fiscal year with at least $1 trillion in completed S&P 500 company buybacks. So all this saber rattling over price gouging and windfall profits has spooked companies into moving share buybacks forward so the lack of investing politicians have been whining about may actually come true. A fait accompli. Now it doesn't matter what politicians do. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=171145746
“The efficient-market hypothesis may be the foremost piece of B.S. ever promulgated in any area of human knowledge!”
When China began building its first overseas military outpost—a naval base in Djibouti—America and its allies were alarmed. The facility, which opened in 2017, sits just 13km (eight miles) from America’s largest base in Africa. France, Japan and Italy have bases there, too. Before long the Americans accused China’s forces of shining lasers at their pilots. China complained that Western aircraft were overflying its outpost to photograph it.
That friction has since lapsed into grudging coexistence in the former French colony, which is not much bigger than New Jersey. But a new threat to this uneasy balance has emerged with the announcement on January 9th that a Hong Kong-based company with links to Huawei, a Chinese telecoms giant, will build and operate a spaceport covering at least ten square kilometres (four square miles) in Djibouti...
... What role Djibouti might play is unclear, but some of its foreign residents will be keen to learn more.
