It is very clear to all sane people that it is urgent that Donald Trump and his Republican Party in Congress suffer major defeats in the upcoming Midterm Elections of 2026, this coming November 3.
It is the only hope to overcome the Fascist Authoritarianism and lack of concern about the mass population of America, that has been displayed by Donald Trump and his sycophantic Cabinet and Republicans in Congress.
Additionally, it is also urgent that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his right wing alliance in the Israeli Knesset be forced out of power in October, which seems possible now.
A more moderate to leftist government is the only way the situation in the Middle East, including mass loss of life of Palestinians, can be ended.
Israel has lost a massive amount of support among many nations, as well as among a large portion of American Jews, and what Israel has done is promote virulent antisemitism in America and across the world, as their government and military have lost all sense of righteousness, decency, and compassion
And two extremist right wing ministers, Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, are highly dangerous as they have advocated total elimination of Palestinians on the West Bank and Gaza, and should be facing war crimes trials, as what they promote is no different than Nazi Germany, a great irony.
For the future revival of ethics and morals of the Jewish People and Israelis, it is absolutely essential, also, for Benjamin Netanyahu to be prosecuted as well for his massive crimes against humanity.
Iran has the Strait of Hormuz all tied up, and Iran-backed Houthi forces in Yemen have taken control of the country’s entire Red Sea coastline, including the port city of Mocha and the strategic Mayun (Perim) Island, effectively tightening their grip on the vital Bab al-Mandab Strait.
