Hang Gliding Hamas Training Question — Michael Yon, a journalist who had served in the U.S. Army Special Forces, makes an interesting point regarding the hang-gliding Hamas terrorists who killed 260 young Israelis at a dance party at the start of the Oct. 7 attack.
Where did these guys train?
Obviously not in Gaza as that would have made the strategy obvious.
Yon thinks Central America.
He says U.S. Special Forces use hang gliders and train by shooting pigs from them.
RFKJ Is Breath Of Hope
By Bob Small
Most of the time, I read about history, but a week ago, Oct. 9, I was at the National Constitution Center as history unfolded.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. generated excitement among the highly diverse crowd in attendance, many, like me, returning to Philadelphia for the first time in many years. It felt like a combination of rock music, politics, and sports. It was a time to let hope overcome fear and regain belief. It was a new time feeling like some old times.
We may think we know about this Kennedy but on his website, you will discover how many times he has fought big corporations including Ford, Mitsubishi, Mobil, along with various departments of our own US government, while representing the under-served American Indians, family farmers, Mexican fisherman, and migrant workers.
A film that highlight one of these batttles is Mann V. Ford (TV Movie 2010) – IMDb
One part of his philosophy is to disengage from empire building.
“We have to stop seeing the world in terms of enemies and adversaries,” his website says. “As John Quincy Adams wrote, ‘Americans go not abroad in search of monsters to destroy.'”
RFK Jr. will revive a lost thread of American foreign policy thinking, the one championed by his uncle, John F. Kennedy who, over his 1000 days in office, had become a firm anti-imperialist. “
The speech was a good hour long and we spent almost two hours standing, cheering, singing, talking, listening, and hoping. When was the last time a candidate spoke and gave you hope?
Mostly, people vote for better than, the “lesser of two evils”, “he won’t start a nuclear war”.
There was a saying among us Greens “vote your hopes, not you fears”, knowing that Ralph Nader, etc. could never win but we wanted to hope.
Now here was a candidate that giveas us hope and whom we think, just maybe, could win.
This is not to say that he doesn’t have some negatives, but we’ll leave that for the Democrats, and Republicans to point out.
Just for now, for one bright shining hour, hope is allowed.

Just You Wait Missy Stollsteimer — Delaware County D.A. Jack Stollsteimer threw another fit this time using the threat of arrest to squelch a confrontation between a citizen and a Democrat legislator.
We suspect Jack would have let it go if the legislator was a R, as he should have unless the pol was being harassed while trying to walk away.
But that is not the case here.
Activist Joe Dychala and State Sen. John Kane exchanged heated words at the Oct. 14 shredding event at Northley Middle School in Aston, Pa.
Joe was upset that Kane — the union boss Democrat who represents the 9th District in which Joe lives –wasn’t letting his staff describe how Gov. Josh Shapiro enacted his motor voter mandate.
Not just without legislative approval but the actual legal mechanism he used, which is not just a matter of curiosity but concern.
Kane didn’t like Joe’s persistence so rather than have a discussion about a legitimate concern with a constituent, he raised his voice and got in Joe’s face.
Joe says Kane was inches away.
Stollsteimer was watching. Rather than tell everyone to chill, he threatened Joe with arrest.
“Arrest me for what? The First Amendment?” Joe asked.
Apparently yes, as Stollsteimer did not backtrack.
So Joe stuck his finger in the D.A.’s face, said “Just you wait, missy”, and walked away.
Well played, Joe. Well played.
We think Jack has a new nickname.
It stems from this: https://billlawrenceonline.com/stollsteimer-woman-bullying-is-backfiring/
He really doesn’t have the temperament to be a prosecutor, much less the big boss.
Vote for Beth Stefanide this Nov. 7.
By the way, it’s not like Jack is some grouchy old guy who does a good job. He’s been a disaster since taking office. Places once considered safe are getting scary, juvenile offenders are being incarcerated where they shouldn’t, and the adult prison is almost a daily human rights violation.
