Yeah powerful but America First please.
Gentleman finds his salvation in the United States but only sees it as a vessel to benefit Israel.
Short ad and quote… so no idea what he is thinking his whole life about the country he got refuge in and became a citizen of… And there are lots of folks here who are thinking of the issues in Israel right now….its a political button for a ton of Christian Americans!
Hey, the guy did the ad. Probably getting tons of hate mail and threats from lefties… and re-experiencing the horrors of his youth.
I’ll cut him some slack in return for making such a powerful ad.
Can’t be many survivors left, either…. Hell of a life….

I've got a plumbing supply house that carries commercially made beer keg urinals
Contains 3 wasp nests and the entire rear seat is a big mouse nest.

Spent yesterday and today reassembling my 25 year old Woods finish mower after restoring.
Deck was covered in stress cracks. Totally stripped it down and sandblasted. Penetration welded. Then Fish plated and braced/gusseted. And put much thicker, wider reinforcing disks on the underside (after cutting the old ones off. Sprayed underside with truck bed lining. Idler arm re-bushed. Every part blasted to bare metal and primed/painted. Top painted in Caterpiller Imron enamel. Completely stripped to the last nut. Just waiting for new wheels and blades now.
Cost me a shit ton in time, $500 in sandblasting and about $500 in parts (though most of the parts are 'disposable' wear parts. So I'd have needed them anyway. But a new Woods RD8400 (equiavalent) is about $10K now! So this was worth rebuilding this fall now that the grass has mostly stopped growing.
If it's worth doing... it's worth doing right!!! I should enter it in a show... ;-)
Cheers,

Long Horn Beetle?
They chopped down more than half the trees in Worcester Ma trying to eradicate them.
Danger of imports from foreign placed without heat treated pallets.
Found this in a box while cleaning up the spare bedroom.
Wonder what year it is from???

Don't ask me... I leave smoking cloven footprints on hallowed ground.
But the US Christian movement has very close identification with Israel. Being people of the old and new Testaments. So lots of the Oral Roberts and Jim and Tammy Baker folks are huge fans of Israel and the Holy Land, from whence sprang Christianity.
Honestly, I don't blame them. I'm not a Red Sea Pedestrian, a Mackeral Snapper or a Holy Underware fan... but I do recognize the value of religion as a social organizing principle that does a lot of good. As long as they are not burning books or chopping off heads or being The Spanish Inquistion and shit (nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.) Religion is bad. But it creates the precepts of societal organization and in that respect is valuable.
What can I say... I am a pro-religion athiest!
So... the Israel connection in the Bible Belt is big and real and huge. Yuge!!! And it should be.
Because the shitwads and Satanists who are out there doing commie shit... are only interested in destroying the very basics that created the 'social organizing precepts of mankind' and turning us into some kind of insect-like commune that Marx envisioned as a drunk Euro-trash retard.
Just what I go by... the Constitution was inspired by some brilliant organizing principles. That's my bible!

Just tired of America being involved in “foreign entanglements”.
We have our own issues at home.
If Israel thinks it needs the US to win in a war they shouldn’t go to war.
Sure Oct. 7 was horrific but perhaps they should have done a few Eichmann ops and sent their message.
Uncle Sugar is tapped out on money and war.
Stop funding Ukraine and free cheese in the Blue cities...
And we could throw a few shekels to Israel to help us protect oil.
If the Middle East grew carrots... we would not give a shit.
I quoted that from a great general.

PS. Paraphrased. Sir Anthony would not have said "Shit" in a quote.
I'm in agreement with most of what you stated.
Reality is Israel has been a pseudo American state since its creation, with the US being its biggest supported and financier, actually welfare state would be better description.
With last nights raid on Iran, Israel took out a lot of targets in Iran and on the way there in other countries. Something the US can't presently do because US has no justifiable reason to do so.
Now, will Israel's raid help/contribute to the downfall of present leadership in Iran? A leadership many would like to see come to an end.
If said leadership comes to an end, who/what replaces it? The unknown devil vs the devil we know. Interesting times.
I met the real Charlie Wilson in his office in 1992. While lobbying for Space Station. As with everyting else, he said yes. Also had to deal with Jack Brooks who was a flaming corrupt SOB... who yelled at me and some others on Houston TV. But Charlie Wilson was a gentleman who loved NASA. He had a Stinger tube hanging over his office door. I had no idea... Nor did anyone else in America except for a few folks out at the Highway Department off GWP in Virginia.
This is an incredibly prescient bit of film making. That happened after the fact. So not prescient. Just sends a very clear message about the laws of unintended consequences. The fact that it is fact makes it prescient... but only to the late Charlie Wilson... legend.
Folks should have listened to Charlie Wilson when he wanted a few million for the schools....
But what do I know... I was in marketing. Even after NASA.

Agreed. It's a complicated little game.
People trying to control the future with money and saber rattling.
