Apparently For Iran, Ceasefire Doesn't Mean What We Consider Ceasefire To Mean

Often the Arabs and Iranians will say one thing in English for foreign consumption while saying the opposite in their native language. Or say ne thing while acting the opposite.

Right after the ceasefire was announced, Iran launched missiles at both Israel and the gulf states.

 It is, of course, possible that the Iranians took ceasefire to mean "No attacks on us, but we can attack others", which tends to be par for the course for the type.

We will see if this was a last-minute barrage so Iran can claim they got the last salvo in, or if the ceasefire breaks down due to continuing Iranian violations.

Justice Sotomayor Must Be Happy That

She is now certifiably not the dumbest justice sitting on the Supreme Court:

 Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson steals that prize from Sotomayor, easily.

The Federalist: Justice Jackson’s ‘Turning Japanese’ Argument Is So Dumb It Stuns

One may hope, but certainly not expect, that the Democrats have learned not to use DEI as a selection criteria for picking Supreme Court justice candidates in the future. 

Michigan Wins!

 Quite a tight game, and fun to watch them beat the U Conn Huskies. 

You Really Can't Hate The Mainstream Media Enough

The New York Post:  NPR didn’t quote a single member of Michigan synagogue after attack — but interviewed terrorist’s pals in Lebanon

They didn't bother interviewing those who were there, including the security guards who stopped the attack, the teachers, or all the responders who risked their lives to make sure no further attackers were in the burning building and all children were safely extracted from it. 

Nope, they instead sent a reporter all the way to Lebanon  to talk to Hezbollah sympathizers and members about the attack. 

One might note that NPR still receives taxpayer dollars to propagandize against America and Americans. 

Something ought to be done about that. 

It's Passover, So It's Time For Matzah Brei

Since you can't eat leavened bread during Passover, and this morning I wanted a good breakfast, it was time to make Martzah Brei.  Think french toast but with matzah rather than bread.

First, you break up the sheets of matzah, 2 sheets per person or more if you're very hungry.

 Next, soak the broken up matzah in water for about 5-10 minutes until soft.

 

 Once the matzah has soaked, dump it into a strainer to drain the excess water. Beat one egg per sheet of matzah in the bowl very well as the matzah sits in the strainer. Then pour the matzah from the strainer back into the bowl onto the eggs and keep stirring until the egg is all absorbed.

Heat up a frying pan with some oil or butter (or both) and keep flipping the matzah until it is no longer soggy and gets nice and crunchy but nor burned.

 Serve with powdered sugar or maple syrup, or both.

 And enjoy a traditional Passover breakfast.

Layers Of Fact-Checking Excellence At The New York Times

The New York Times headline speaks volumes as to the lack of general knowledge of today's journalists:

Well that "North American Treaty Organization" is a NATO that truly Needs America To Operate.

Then again the actual NATO also Needs America To Operate.

Verily, as Ben Rhodes stated regarding journalists and whether they know anything:   “Now they don’t. They call us to explain to them what’s happening in Moscow and Cairo. Most of the outlets are reporting on world events from Washington. The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old, and their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns. That’s a sea change. They literally know nothing.”

Ben, of course, used that lack of knowledge to manipulate the journalists to sell Obama's ridiculous and dangerous foreign policy - leading to much of the current troubles with Iran today. 

Indeed, the journalists of the New York Times know nothing and have forgotten nothing. 

Happy Passover To My Jewish Readers And A Wish For Good Friday And Easter To My Christian Readers

Happy Passover to my Jewish readers.  Two Seders later (one Wednesday night for the first night, and another yesterday for the second),  and we are well into celebrating Passover now.

With the attacks on Jews worldwide, including right here in West Bloomfield, this festival of freedom is even more meaningful today.

To my Christian readers, may you have a peaceful Good Friday and a happy Easter celebration. 

Yep, You’re Doing Just Great

The No Kings protest can indeed be described, to reference the Bard as “All sound and fury signifying nothing”.

We will note that America has not had a king since 1776, and still does not. So I suppose the progressives can go home and congratulate themselves on a job well done today.

After all, with the close of their latest tantrum, we still have no king. Nor do we have an Ayatollah nor dictators for that matter — but these same protesters rather support the ayatollahs and the dictatorship in Cuba now don’t they?

Anyway job well done yelling that we do not have a king. A great success, I’m sure, as we did not have a king before the protest nor during the protest, nor after. 

 

Senator Chris Murphy Says The Quiet Part Out Loud

Democrats are for illegal immigrants over Americans every darn time. Now they’re saying so out loud. 

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT): “The people we care about most, the undocumented Americans that are in this country.”

Amazing how the Democrats time and time again will butn this country down to stop immigration enforcement and prevent the removal of illegal aliens including murderers, rapists and scum, all to the detriment of American citizens.

It seems the Democrats took the saying dissolve the people and elect another as a how-to guide.
