Good talks in White House talking point, but the secondary sanctions will still go in to place on Friday, as far as we know, the article states that there might be a deal to halt long range strikes, the truth will be in the pudding.

This blog is a firm supporter of Israel, and support this move to end the War, win the WAR by winning, did the Allies pause after Hitler DIED, no, this WAR can only have one end, the victory for Israel after 7th of October, and the return of the Hostages that are still alive. Israel must shown that when it attacks it will strikes back hard and wins. Israel is the sole DEMORCRACY in the Middle East, the reason for the full taking of Gaza might be political, to keep the Israeli PM in power, but both political and Military secure the same result, a secure Israel, not under threat from enemies in the region. This winning in Gaza might not be a popular view, but it is the right stand to take.

This blog on whole keeps out of the cultural wars, but this silly reaction by Democrats and Liberals explains why Democrats are even less popular than Republicans. This blog takes its hat off to Ms Sweeney, she is rather a good actor it must be said, you would get on your donkey to charge a Windmill for her, I guess beauty has its costs.
