It's a bad game of bluff poker and everyone passes on a call.
I get it though. A real war is a no holds barred use any weapon available. Yes, any weapon.
My dad was in the Aleutinn Islands when the nukes were dropped on Japan. He recalls several minutes of radio silence and then high ranking officers only radio contacts. Everyone back then couldn't accept that one airplane and one bomb could take out an entire city.

I went ten days when i was 13 without eating a thing

a guy with a temporary permit ripped my tonsils out early one morning

and not having a momma to coax me into eating they just let me lay there gathering dust

finally after ten days I got up and hobbled to the dining room, sat on one of the benches and ate some mashed potatoes, sort of just letting them ooze down my throat Originally Posted by nevergaveitathought

Unusual story. I still have my tonsils, or I was born without them. Not sure.

One can go a long time without eating, but it's a pretty arduous experience. Also, you can die during the refeeding phase. I'm not sure how long one can survive without eating, but I think it's months. That's assuming one is fully nourished before the fast.

What probably happens is that cellular division is effectively halted, and your cells become quiescent, and this should temporarily stop the process of aging.

I don't think T R U M P ever said any of that. That came out of social media platforms.

A ‘Woke’ CIA? Old News. Just Ask Hipsters Fidel Castro and Che Guevara Who the CIA Helped

A ‘Woke’ CIA? Old News. Just Ask Hipsters Fidel Castro and Che Guevara Who the CIA Helped

"Backlash grows over woke CIA video--Former CIA officer Bryan Dean Wright on Tuesday told 'Fox & Friends' the agency had pushed 'woke propaganda.'

"'What happens when you hire a bunch of folks who are wokesters going out into the world that is not woke?.. As an analyst, are they going to bring nuance to their analysis or are they going to bring any degree of unbiasedness to their job? Of course not. They’re activists now.'" [...]

"Former secretary of state and director of the CIA Mike Pompeo said the U.S. couldn’t afford to risk national security to “appease some liberal, woke agenda," The Hill reported this week.

And speaking of "unbiasedness" and of "risking U.S. national security to appease a liberal agenda" by the CIA:

“Me and my staff were all Fidelistas,” Robert Reynolds, the CIA’s Caribbean Desk chief from 1957 to 1960, admitted.

“Everyone in the CIA and everyone at State was pro-Castro, except [Republican] ambassador Earl Smith," said Robert Weicha, CIA operative in Santiago, Cuba.

“Don’t worry. We’ve infiltrated Castro’s guerrilla group in the Sierra Mountains. The Castro brothers and Ernesto 'Che' Guevara have no affiliations with any Communists whatsoever,” noted crackerjack Havana CIA station chief Jim Noel in 1958.

"Without U.S. help Fidel Castro would never have gotten into power. The State Department played a large part in bringing Castro to power. The press, the Chief of the CIA Section are also responsible… we are responsible for bringing Castro in power. I do not care how you want to word it," admitted Earl T. Smith, U.S. Ambassador to Cuba, 1957-59.

In fact, after he was securely in power Fidel Castro admitted he’d been a Leninist since his early 20s. Raul Castro had a KGB handler since 1954. And when arrested in Mexico in 1956, Ernesto "Che" Guevara was found to have, in his very wallet, the calling card of the KGB's top Latin American agent, Nikolai Leonov. During his Mexico exile, Fidel Castro was also plotting the future Stalinization of Cuba in meetings with both Leonov and with his Cuban KGB colleague Osvaldo Sanchez.

this puts the bay of pigs in context. you had wokeistas and sympathizers at the state dept.

RIP cowboy-balladeer Jerry Jeff Walker, pictured at center, below, with Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson in a 1992 publicity photo on the set of "The Texas Connection." Walker died yesterday at age 78 of cancer.

We were let down bigly

The Deep State cabal. The central banking system. The Great Reset. That’s what the Bush’s, Clinton’s and Obama’s were installed to do. He got Trump wrong. Trump was installed for the Great Awakening. To the destroy the Deep State Cabal and the Central Banking system. To give the power back to the people. Originally Posted by bambino
