Biden: if Hamas Release the Hostages, the Attacks on Gaza will End the Following Day

Biden made it sound like it’s up to the Hamas to stop fighting, that they only needed to release ALL the hostages, to end the assaults on the land, but it’s, not that, simple here…off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The AFP and CNN reported on the eleventh, that at a fundraising event in Seattle, Washington, the U.S. president, Biden stated that if the Hamas free the hostages in Gaza, then, at the soonest, Gaza will stop fighting “tomorrow.”

Biden stated to about a hundred present said, “just like I’d said, it’s reliant on the Hamas, if they want to free the hostages, then, we will end this tomorrow, start the ceasefire process by tomorrow.”

On the eighth, Biden was interviewed by the host of CNN special report, stated for the very first time, that if Israeli army enters into Rafah, he will stop supplying the weapons made in American and the ammunitions which had been used on the assault on the many cities of Gaza.

There are five Americans who’d been taken hostage by the Hamas right now.  The American security consultants met up with the families of the five American hostages.  The families are gravely upset, especially in seeing their loved ones having been treated humanely enough after being taken.

Since the Israeli-Hamas War began last October, there were about 250 who’d been taken hostage to Gaza, of these, 128 still hadn’t been released, including thirty-six who’d been, killed.  The negotiators for Israel and Hamas had left Cairo, where the peace talks took place, with last week’s ceasefire dissolving.

Hamas said, the Israelis objected the ceasefire plans proposed by third parties, returning the negotiations to release the hostages back to where it was, and accused the P.M. of Israel, to block the talk of ceasefire, using the negotiations as a false front for the assault on Rafah.  The Israeli officials stated, that unless the country defeated the Hamas, otherwise, they won’t agree to a permanent ceasefire, even if all the hostages were, released.

And so, the negotiations still go, B-U-S-T, because, Israeli refused to back down, and, the Hamas hit back, this is still a I hit you, you hit me vicious cycle, with neither side willing to take a step backwards, and so, the war continues and many more will die, because the blame is on the Hamas, and, the Hamas won’t have it!

An Overwhelming Support for Palestine to Gain Membership into the U.N. by the Members of the U.N.

Palestine crossed over, a big hurdle, in the process of becoming a member of the U.N., and the U.S. still, stood on the WRONG side of history, with, Israel…off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

Not Yet Gained the Formal Acceptance Yet, Only the Admittance of Status Quo of Member Country, the Israeli Diplomat Furious, Tearing Up the Constitution of the U.N.

The United Nations took a vote on the tenth, demanded the National Security Council to reconsider admitting Palestine as a formal member of the U.N., the result of the votes was one-hundred forty-three votes for, nine against, and twenty-five forfeiting the votes.  Only the U.S. and Israel voted no to admit Palestine into the U.N., the diplomat of foreign affairs from Israel stated that the United Nations had made the most absurd decision.

This decision did NOT give Palestine the full membership to the U.N., only admitted that Palestine had qualified for application for the membership of United Nations. The decision pointed out, that Palestine should be admitted as a member country of the U.N., suggested that the national security council to reconsider its standpoint, and stated that the next meeting of the U.N. starting in September, Palestine will be allowed more rights as a member, for instance, proposing a bill, complete involvement, along with sending an elected representative to the council.

Based off of the constitution of the U.N., the application to join the U.N. need to first pass the recommendations from the N.S.A., then the member countries can, vote on the matter.  There are, currently a total of 193 members, and if the candidate country gained two-thirds votes, then, it would become a member officially.

Mansour, the ambassador for Palestine to the U.N. spoken before the voting, and gained widespread applause.  He’d stated, that voting for, is voting to save the lives of Palestinians, and not against another country.

Before the votes, the American ambassador told the U.N., that even IF the voting for Palestine to be admitted as a member country of the U.N. passes initial voting, and will be voted again by the Security Council members, then, the U.S. will vote against the matter again, a replay of the National Security Council situation back in April.  The representative group stated, that the self-government of Palestine does NOT qualify as a member of U.N. in application.

Erdan, the U.N. ambassador from Israel on the sixth claimed, that if the votes pass, he’d suspected, that the U.S. will cut back on the fundings that the U.S. sent to the U.N., and other agencies related to the U.N.  Based off of an amendment of the U.S. in the 1990s, if the U.N. accepts Palestine as a member, then, the Congress will have the right to stop funding the operations of the United Nations.

Erdan spoke after the votes on the tenth, he got angered, and shredded an envelope with “Constitution of United Nation” on it, and accused that there are too many, anti-Semites in the U.N. conference in real time.

And so, this is how it went, with the U.S., forfeiting, voting for Palestine being a member of the U.N., because it’s “friends” with Israel, besides, Israel is one of the countries with the grade-A nuclear weapons, and the U.S. must save itself from confrontation with another country with the nuclear weapons such as China too, that is why it voted NO, and besides, that’s been U.S.’s standpoint all the way, being as opportunistic as it’d always been, with a total DISREGARD of what’s right and wrong, what’s morally responsible, all it CARES about is ITS own, benefits!

In the Gamble of China Vs. U.S., Lai Can’t Give up the Bargaining Chip that Taiwan Has, and Still Gloat about it

It’s official, we are, SOLD OUT, and, U.S. is trying, to get better in relations with, China now, and, Taiwan is left, an ORPHAN that “we” (still not a part of this, god damn, “collective”) can’t do, nothing about, because our BIG DADDY, U.S., had, DESERTED us!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The Secretary of State of the U.S., Blinken had visited China twice within a year.  What was different from his last visit was, this time, Blinken did NOT host a press conference before he set out; at the same time, Mr. Kissinger who’d acted as a mediator had, passed on already.

after Tsai had SOLD the country’s ONLY BARGAINING CHIP!!! Photo from online

What replaced it, was the organization made up of U.S. enterprises and U.S. business groups, they’d set up a group at the end of March, first, went to Beijing to state their ingenuity of deepening the business ties between U.S. and China.  On the other hand, Blinken had hosted the press conferences to the international press in the U.S. Embassy, using the Q&A to state the position of the U.S.

Just as planned, Blinken was exclusively interviewed by the BBC stationed in China reporter, Laura Bicker, along with the NBC news reporter, Steve Inskeep.

Combining all that’s said in these three press conferences in Beijing, Blinken immediately responded to the comments of China immediately.  From the observations of the press reporters, the Chinese has a firmer interpretation of Blinken’s visit to China, while Blinken plainly stated: the that U.S. State Department’s content of the APEC Summit in San Francisco at the end of last year.  And so, the differences of beliefs between U.S. and China, will not deter the countries from continuing contact, communicating, and the competitions every now and then.

from before the U.S. STOLE the chip manufacturing technologies of TMSC, with Tsai and the DDP’s conset…cartoon found online

Based off of this, because of the need of the enterprises in the U.S., like Huawei that’s been, arbitrated in the U.S., can still purchase the advance chip technologies from Intel in the newest cell phones.  While the Nvidia A.I. chips that’s been restricted from export, although the future outlook diminished a little, but the achievement in this was that both sides will start the conversations in discussion of artificial intelligence technologies, which will be used in future negotiations.

And so, because U.S. already have a way, of STEALING the chip technologies from Taiwan, we are, of NO use to them anymore, and, there’s NO mentioning of Taiwan’s “status quo” in this “gathering between the greats”, and Taiwan got kicked to the curb, and, U.S. had, deserted us, after it got the chip manufacturing technologies from this “country”, under Tsai’s orders, and this “country” got SOLD for SCRAPS already, and there’s NOTHING any of us living on this SHITTY hellhole can do about that, it’s already been, DONE, by Tsai, and the DDP.

The Father-Daughter Pair on that Bicycle Trail

The tale of the father and the daughter, how he’d, taken care of her, loved her, unconditionally, translated…

I have a preferred way of exercising, I’d often, ridden my bicycle around the neighborhood, I’d ridden all over the bicycle trails locally, mostly, these trails are, separated from the sidewalk for pedestrians and the flow of traffic of motor vehicles, with almost nobody around, the wind gentle, very, leisurely, I also got to, take in the sights of the fields, and, it’s no wonder, that this trail is, often populated with those who’d come out to exercise by walking or jogging.

like this, father-child pair…just to see his child, smile…photo from online

One day, at the “Pump Trail”, I saw a tricycle coming in the distance, that nostalgic look of it, with the brightly sprayed on colors, it’d caught my, attention.  As the tricycle came closer, I saw a girl in a sports cap, and dark glasses, from the posture she’d sat, and the looks, I suspect she may be a handicap person.

And the one riding the tricycle was older, close to my age, wearing a t-shirt, in shorts, sneakers, from his dark complexion and plump calves, I’m inclined to believe, that he must’ve been, ridden the tricycle a long, long time, to get his dark complexion and bulky muscles.

There were the rest stops of the bicycle trail, the tricycle stopped to rest temporarily, I was just running across the stop, with that curiosity, I’d asked this, “stagecoach”, how he’d come to own this, odd looking, tricycle, and who was he chauffeuring, around?  Turns out, the young lady he was lifting is his youngest daughter, severely mentally retarded, with the severe sort of scoliosis, she’d gone to special education school from her elementary all the way to high school, when she was younger, she knew how to call out “dad”, but, with the atrophy of her brain, she’d, not talked these days.

He originally owned a pickup to take his youngest to and from school, but during Typhoon Morakot, it’d, gotten, drenched and, became junk, so he’d, custom-ordered this, tricycle with the seats; after his youngest graduated from high school, she’d needed someone to watch over her, and he can only, quit his work as a janitor at a local college, and start working as a, full-time, dad.

caring for his handicap child…as both the parent and the child, ages…photo from online

The original tricycle didn’t have the covers over it, after two kind souls learned, they’d come all the way from Tainan, to install the covers, and they’d not received any payment, nor left any contact information, their acts of kindness, were truly, amazing.

The youngest couldn’t sit still at home, when she’d felt upset, she’d started, slapping herself, rammed her head into the walls, and so, he could take her out every day to divert her attention, to see the sights, their tracks covered almost all of Chiayi.  And now, as he grew older, he isn’t as agile as he used to be, but, so long as his youngest daughter is happy, he will, chauffeur her until he couldn’t do it anymore, and their story, touched me.

After this, short conversation with me, he’d, peddled on his tricycle, continued onward, looking at the backside of the man, I was totally in awe, such an, amazing, father!

So, this is, the dedication, the love and the care this man showed to his own, daughter who’s handicapped, and, it showed, how it takes, even MORE, energies, to raise a child with the mental decapacitation up into adulthood, and these children, will in turn, become their parents’, aging companions when they’re, older too.

The C.I.A: without American Military Aid, Ukraine May Lose Out on Its Cause Before the Year is Over

How the U.S., keeps on adding more firepower to that, POWDER KEG, then, as everything goes, KA-BOOM, it’d left the “building”, JUST as Elvis had, that’s been the countries laissez-faire attitude: so long as the bombs, the missiles don’t attack our geographic area, we don’t CARE about how the REST of the world’s countries go to HELL, so long as we keep on, selling the weapons to the warring countries all round, the world, we’re making the BIG CASH, WAR can only means, cranking up them weapon reproduction mills, more work for the people in the U.S., keeping the economy from heading into inflation…off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The director of the C.I.A., Burns warned on the speech he’d delivered on the eighteenth at the Bush Center on the eighteenth in Texas, that unless D.C. provides more military aid to Kyiv, otherwise, Ukraine will lose to Russia at the end of this year.

The House of Representatives will be voting on the $61 billion Ukrainian Aid bill.  Burns stated, that with the practical and the psychological sides of military support, then, Ukraine will be able to last through the entire 2024, but if the aid stopped, then, the war will only worsen.

the results of other countries counting on U.S. aid in the “conflicts”…political cartoon from online

Burns stated, that by the end of this year, it’s highly likely, that Ukraine will lose the fight against Russia, or at least, helping the Russian president, Putin gain the upper hand in the negotiations of terms of peace.  This is, a very, realistic, risk.  But he’d not disclosed the standards to which he’d evaluated by “losing” of the war.

And the former president, Trump told on the eighteenth, that Europe should supply more funds to Ukraine.  Since he was out of office, he still exerted a ton of influences of many of the Republican lawmakers in D.C.

here’s another one, of the Russo-Ukrainian “Conflict”…see how Ukraine is being CUT up and SOLD for SCRAPS by U.S. and Russia’s “negotiations”??? political cartoon found online

Trump on the social media, “Reality Group” had, “why had U.S. invested in more than ten billion dollars, a much higher amount compared to European countries, when we’re, separated from Ukraine by the Atlantic Ocean!”

Trump also wrote, “to help the countries with the desperate needs, why can’t European countries be more like the U.S., put in equal amounts of assets like the U.S. had done?” “Just as everyone believes, the existence of Ukraine, should be way more important to Europe than to the U.S., but this is also, very important for us!  Europe needs to start moving!”

And so, as the money runs out, Ukraine is faced with getting taken over by Russia, and this is how the U.S. does it, in EVERY WAR it’d inserted itself into, the Russo-Ukrainian, the Hamas-Israeli “conflicts” (still “downgrading” the matter), so yeah, that’s how BIG DADDY UNCLE SAM does it, giving the countries at war, the FALSE hopes of hey, we’ll help you, inputting the budgets of military-grade weapons (still making the cash by selling the arms), and, when the land got DESTROYED by the fires of war, “sorry, you’re on your own, kids”, DUKE it out yourselves, that’s how Big DADDY U.S., helps the rest of the world’s countries, SORT out our “fights”…making U.S. uncredible, UNRELIABLE, as our allies, and yet ,we still see them as, our big daddy, and we run to them, with our tails wagging, wagging, wagging (kinda like how excited Murphy got when he finally came visiting…), are you FUCKING shitting me here???

Palestine Wanted to Join the U.N., Vetoed by the U.S., Twelve Countries Including Russia and China Had Voted Yes, Two Countries Forfeited, with Only U.S. Objecting

And I wonder, W-H-Y???  Oh, because if Palestine was allowed into the “group”, then, there would be NO excuse of how U.S. still, favored, Israel, which will be the END of the money making ventures of the U.S., which won’t be good, that’s why U.S. vetoed this request from Palestine, because, WAR benefits, the country that mass produced, manufactured the weapons, and that would be, Uncle Sam, the OPPORTUNIST!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

Didn’t Pass Voting of the National Security Council, the U.S. Argued that the Timing is Off, China Criticized U.S. as Being a Bandit

The National Security Council of the U.N. on the eighteenth voted on formally passing the application of Palestine as a member of the U.N., although Great Britain and Switzerland forfeited their, votes, China, Russia, France, Japan, and eight other member countries voted yes, with only U.S., pocket vetoed the cause.

Based off of U.N., to be included in the U.N., there would be the nomination from the security council, then passing the votes of the members of the U.N.  This means, that there would be a need of at least nine countries that voted yes out of the fifteen of the security council of the U.N., while the five countries that are members of the Security Council didn’t use their veto rights, which meant, that there’s still a need for two-thirds of member countries’ votes to pass.

and, here’s that, DISSECTION, of why it is next to impossible, for Palestine to form its own, “country”, off of YouTube

The ambassador to the U.N. from the U.S., Wood told, that U.S. still strongly supported the “two country act”, that this veto doesn’t mean that the U.S. is against Palestine to form its own country.  The U.S. believes, that Palestine’s status as a country should be admitted through a series of face-to-face negotiations of the related parties.

The chair of Palestine self-government, Abbas criticized the U.S. for being unfair, and stated “terrorism shall not be, rewarded”.  The ambassador from Israel, Erdan criticized the twelve countries that voted yes, that the votes will only, encourage the Palestinians “objections and make them keep on fighting”.

The U.N. Ambassador from Algeria, Bendjama stated, this vote that didn’t go through, is letting the guilty not be punished.  This is a “shame that will follow us forever”.

The spokesperson of Chinese Diplomatic Relations, Lin on the nineteenth criticized U.S. for going backwards.  The Chinese U.N. Ambassador, Fu told, that the countries that voted against Palestine for not having the ability to run itself as an independent country, this is bullish logic that confused right from wrong.  The dreams of the Palestinians for decades had been, shattered completely, China is, more than disappointed with the U.S.

And in this, we have to wonder, why the FUCK (don’t pardon my FRENCH!) would the U.S. vote against Palestine for setting up its own country?  And the only reason that’s, logical is that it does NOT want to get on the bad side of Israel, despite how Israel had been the one, trying to take over the land of Palestine, which dated back to…uh, how long ago again was it, when back in the days, the U.S. decided, that Jerusalem belonged to Israel, preventing Palestine for setting up its own, country to rule itself.  And you still think, that U.S. has the “right of way” in all of this?  Yeah right, and you ALL need to, WAKE up already!!!

In a Room Not Bright Enough

The Fluorescent Light Feared the Light Too

Finding a Man of Legend

Who’ll Take You to Count the Seas

He Saw Your Shadow Before

Hiding Behind, Him

all it takes is…some attention on our, parts, to note that there may be a need, and just simply, offer that helping hand…video from YouTube

You Two Shared the Exact Same Sun

He’s Very Light, Light to Very Close

You Two Shared the Same Shoes

The Old Days Became a Guide Dog

If You Can Find a Stranger in Advance

Hand Him that Tiny Flower

Watching that Small Face

Looking Surprised & with the Smiles, Blooming Open

How you can make the day of someone you encounter, by these, tiny acts of, gentle, kindness, and yet, we all, often, neglected to know and to note, that a simple smile toward someone we don’t know, can actually, brighten up her/his day by a hell of a lot, so, we don’t, do that…

Iran Claimed to Retaliate Against Israel, within Twenty-Four Hours’ Time at the Soonest

It still does NOT matter, WHO hit WHOM first, that first PUNCH had already been, THROWN, and now, the ABUSER/ENABLER interaction style shall, keep on, rolling down…on the WARS of this god DAMN world here!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

Iran Passed the Messages to the U.S., that They Won’t Haste to Decision, Suspected to Use a Surrogate to Begin the Fights, U.S. Called Out China and Other Countries to Try and Persuade Iran to Start a War

Israel had air-raided the Syrian Embassy on the first, the Iranians already threatened retaliation.  The Wall Street Journal on the eleventh quoted someone, that Israel is preparing for a twenty-four or forty-eight hour immediate retaliation on Iran.  Another individual who received intel from higher up in Iran stated, that Tehran is currently discussing the plans of attack, but hadn’t decided on what they would do yet.

The air raid of Israel had caused eleven deaths, including multiple higher up military officials of the IRGC.  American intel showed, that the Iranian or the surrogates of Iran, will be attacking Israel and Israeli assets soon.  But someone with the intel stated, that the attacks may happen within the borders of Israel, and not anywhere, else.

A consultant of IRGC claimed, that IRGC already proposed several plans, the plans they’re considering include using an advanced missile to attack Israel directly.  But the highest leader, Khomeini hadn’t decided yet, still weighing in the risks of politics.  Khomeini worried that using these forms of retaliation may cause the opposite effects, that the missiles will get hijacked by Israeli or hit, causing Israel to start up the massive retaliation attacks on Iran.

The representative group of Iran to U.N. on the eleventh wrote on Media X of the report, that Tehran must punish Israel for this act, but, if the Security Council of the U.N. reprimanded this behavior, then there would be the punishment from Iranian that they will, avoid.

a video, of the air raid, from YouTube

Reuters quoted multiple Iranian sources, that the head of foreign affairs, Amirabdollahian on his interview on the seventh, sent the following message to D.C., that to prevent the escalation of Iran retaliation of Israel, they would not act rashly, to avoid the escalation of the situation.

The U.S. already made demands on China, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and other countries, to call out to Iran, to NOT retaliate.  Miller the spokesperson for the State Department, stated, that Blinken recently talked to the heads of foreign affairs of China, Wang and others, “in the past few days, we are working with the European Union and other allies, and asked them to send out the correct message to Iran, to NOT attack hastily, that attacking would NOT be in the favors of Iran (the Middle East) or the global community.”  Russia, Great Britain, and Germany had all ushered the Middle Eastern Countries to prevent a full-blown scale war.

The head of foreign affairs of China, Mao confirmed that he’d spoken with Blinken two evenings ago, Mao told, that in the conversations, Wang stressed that the Chinese strongly reprimanded the Iranian attack on the Syrian Embassy, stressed that the diplomatic offices’ safety can’t be, destroyed, that the rights of Iran and Syria should be respected by all.

Currently, only two western airlines continued to fly to Tehran, the German Lufthansa Airline stated that there will not schedule any flights before the eighteenth; and subsidiary of the Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines continued the flights on the eleventh, but they’re adjusting the schedules.

The Pentagon announced, the U.S. Central Command Commander, Kurilla arrived in Israeli on the eleventh, and is discussing the situation with the head of D.o.D., Gallant, and had conferences with the higher up of military of the country.  Gallant told Austin, that once Iran attacks, Israeli will fight back; Austin reiterated that the support of U.S. for Israeli is strong.

Yeah, and so, this is, what’s, currently going on, in this HUGE CIRCUS M-E-S-S of the ISRAELI-HAMAS conflict right now.  And, there’s this, “new player” of Iran (with tons and loads of NUCLEAR power in the world too, what is it???  No. three, behind China and the U.S now???), and, because you hit me, and I will hit you right back, that’s how they played the “games” of WAR here, and so, this SHIT is still NOT going to end, until, the HIGHER up of both governments, get, KILLED by those fighter planes, dropping them BOMBS down onto the offices of these, higher up, government officials, and, this is still an ABUSER/ENABLER interaction style, I mean, if someone HITS you, would you NOT, hit them back too?  Exactly, and how do YOU, expect that Iran doesn’t HIT Israel back HARDER, now that Israel had started attacking FIRST, huh???

People Will Believe, EVERYTHING

Because, of how EMPTY the souls of, modern day man, are…

People will believe, EVERYTHING you sell to them, all it takes, is that very first, cow (like the book told, of how the roads in, Maine was it, got started???), to lead the rest.

People will believe, EVERYTHING, because they are so, lost, because they all needed some form of a “higher power” to tell them that everything IS, okay, that’s how the CULT gets, its, too many-to-count, and still-increasing-in-number, “followers”.

“follow that dude with the red”! Illustration from online

It does NOT matter if the preacher (that HEAD HONCHO) makes sense or not, we the people, just want, someone, to LEAD us, so we don’t have to, take responsibilities for our own, lives, besides, this world’s, too messed up right now, it’s a good thing, to have, FAITH in that, higher, being.

And that, is how religions make us, STUPID, and it’s still, preying on the WEAKNESS of human nature, our need to, have some forms of control over our, lives, which we, really, don’t……….

People will believe in, EVERYTHING you’re, selling to them, just make your “sales pitch”, sound enough (it doesn’t really have to be factual or anything, just have to, SOUND like it!), and, get that very first, IDIOT to follow you around, then, there would be, all those, IDIOTS (no offense but as I said, feel free to take), will follow around that very FIRST, IDIOT, kinda like how the Republican Party, and the DDP works right now, doesn’t it???  Surely does.

Facebook, on, Hold

Taking her stumbling toddler to the local parks, to visit the sights, an ordinary day shared between mother and daughter, that is, filled with, a ton of, imagination here…translated…

My daughter is learning to walk, I’d often, trekked to the local parks with her, there were the roads that split to opposite directions around the lake in the park, and, two rocks fitted for sitting and lying, at the fork.  I’d taught her to stretch herself out on the rock, to look up at the sky, to let out that “ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”, the joys of relaxation time.  Some time later, she’d found, that there was something happening in the skies she was, gazing up to, that, there was, the unpredictable hugs, she would then, lie herself down, and, with her face turned upward, letting the light shine on her, face, and time stood still, stayed, put on that, face—I’d, read her, face, it was the face where the skies, stood, still.

precious time shared by mother and baby…photo from online

“Wow!”, my daughter who loved sliding down on the slides on the playground, would often, hollered, and, after the skies stayed on her face, she would, lie on her back, on the back stairs leading up to the slides, lifting her face up.  And, as I was invited by her to get down with her, I’d gone next to her, lain myself, down too, looked up, read the colors of the, skies, reading the air, reading the clouds changing shape, some of the lights, inhaled, and, exhaled—with the skies, reading our, expressions, too.

These are, the most special moments that a parent and a young child can, ever, share, just lying on their back, on a patch of grass somewhere, looking up, at the, skies, and letting their imaginations, run wild, see what you can find in the skies…and this interactions between parent and child, will make them, closer to each other, and the parent and child will, stay connected for a long, long time, to come.
