America Shamed, Israel Enraged

We got yet another light dusting of snow last night, barely enough to shovel. 

America has been shamed by those poutine eating bastards up north. The nation's 3-2 loss is the first setback of the Trump Administration. Justin Trudeau went to bed happy; God damn it. Forshame, America. Forshame. Stroock's Books calls for a war of revenge against the Snow Mexicans. 

A tougher than expected day yesterday combining despair and anger. When Will combines those two emotions, he usually does some pretty dumb shit. There's a guy at the gym, sometimes, well, he's worn one of those T-shirts. And yesterday, for the first time, doing something about it didn't seem like a half bad idea.* We went on about our workout. A great workout, by the way. The best. 

At this point Hamas' terrorism is psychological and emotional. The Israelis are supposed to get six people back tomorrow. Word is they'll act against Hamas after that. But how? Prime Minister Netanyahu usually moves sideways, or diagonally maybe. So be patient and recall there was a time in the Autumn of 2023 when some worried the Israelis wouldn't invade Gaza. Patience. So far in this war patience has paid off, no?**

Don't oversell on the condemnation of Hamas from various imams and even the UN. The condemnation never lasts, especially from the fru-fru Euros, who one must needs remember have their own restive Muslim populations to worry about. The usual suspects are 48 hours away from condemning Israel and calling for a 'two state solution'. There can be no living alongside these people. 

Oh look, the Bibas boys were beaten and strangled to death. Yeah, I think I'm done. 

Yesterday we scrawled two more scenes about the Derry imbroglio. We're going to have a quick bloodbath at the Craigavon Bridge. We set the stage for a couple of stage setting scenes today, we're thinking about you, Mr. Major, future Secretary of State for Northern Ireland. And we're thinking you were plotting against Maggie, maybe even taking a few trans-Atlantic phone calls from a certain advisor to the Vice President. And don't worry readers, World War 1990: Thatcher's War will have some serious cabinet meetings. 

*There was another guy in another T-shirt, a young lad wearing a Robotech T-shirt. You're damn right we flagged him down and bonded with that lad about Robotech for a few minutes. It was a good thing.
