Always enjoy your writing! Good to hear from you. But now,… 😉 I must respectfully disagree with you.
First, Trump’s administration is a clown show. Second, I’m not in favor of the Ayatollah-at all!
However, Netanyahu has been crying the battle cry about Iran since 1994.
Obama had an agreement which would have severely limited Iran’s use of nuclear power. Trump withdrew from the agreement with Netanyahu’s support. If the agreement was still in place, Iran would have substantially less nuclear.
Trump’s own DNI, Tulsi Gabbard, stated in March of this year that even today Iran doesn’t have enough nuclear power to be a threat.
Netanyahu attacked Iran for no reason other than it could, knowing he had Trump in his pocket. Netanyahu played Trump!!
Did Israel have a right to retaliate after October 10th? Yes! But let’s not forget Netanyahu ignored all intelligence about that possible attack. In the end, Netanyahu annihilated Hamas, Hezbollah, Syria, and has killed 50k plus Palestinians and still counting.
Iran has the right to protect its sovereignty, too!
Enjoy your vacation. Your boys will be grown before you know it. 💕
My parents took us on cruises too. I was in my teens and did not exactly behave like the angelic middle child I normally was. My two rowdy brothers did behave. There is something about cruises that tempts the most well behaved kids. I will say this, and hope it helps, I have always appreciated that my parents took us on their escapes. They really didn't go away on their own very much. They always took us. So that by the time I was in my 20s, I felt somewhat well travelled. The memories are good. The little hellions will thank you for these memories one day, Matt. Have fun! As for the ten year Trumpiversary, I've got nothing. Except to say that a precious few of you pundits and writers who stayed true to the truth have helped keep me sane through it all.
Aww. Thanks, Teri! — Yes, my hope and belief is that traveling with kids broadens their horizons and enriches their lives (even if they don’t always realize it at the time). It’s also often super fun and rewarding to have them along, too (in between the yelling and complaining, lol). Hope you are well!!
You are having fun. Relax and enjoy. It seems like lots of people are supporting the bombing of Iran and dismantling its nuclear weaponry. A senator on TV is reminding us about Iran’s chant, “Death to America”. I think Trump is bluffing in hopes to get Iran to the table. If we strike, I am worried about another 9/11.
I'm having a hard time feeling sorry for you while you guys are on a boat in the Caribbean, but I can understand and sympathize with the fatigue you have from covering the sociopathic grifter for the last ten years.
A blind squirrel sometimes finds a nut. We have been down this road when we never could find those damn WMD's in Iraq. Getting in a war is easy, getting out not so much.
Sorry, you give yourself too much credit for prescience. Even Ray Charles could see that Trump has always been a strongman leader who would take the country into misadventures that end badly. See, Germany 1930s-1940s. Weep for America.

Yes. I can handle the first world problems. The third world problems are the hard ones.
