Trump Nominated for Nobel Prize for Work Establishing UAE-Israel Peace
Trump's like Obama in this way, except that Trump actually did something and wasn't just given a BLM Participation Trophy by the committee.
Christian Tybring-Gjedde, a member of the Norwegian Parliament and chairman of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, submitted the nomination, Fox News reported. "For his merit, I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other Peace Prize nominees," Tybring-Gjedde told Fox News. ... "As it is expected other Middle Eastern countries will follow in the footsteps of the UAE, this agreement could be a game-changer that will turn the Middle East into a region of cooperation and prosperity," he wrote, Fox News reported.Trump also announced large drawdowns of forces from the Neocon Failures Iraq and Afghanistan. How did we go from running against nation-building to converting the armed forces almost entirely to Nation Building Organizations? I'm sure that lying about your war aims is Conservative Sacred Principle or whatever.
The top U.S. general in the Middle East on Wednesday confirmed plans for partial troop drawdowns in both Iraq and Afghanistan before the Nov. 3 election, as President Donald Trump seeks to fulfill a campaign promise to end America's "endless wars." Gen. Frank McKenzie, commander of U.S. Central Command, said early Wednesday that the U.S. plans to cut the troop presence in Iraq from 5,200 to 3,000 by the end of September. Speaking to a handful of reporters later, McKenzie provided additional details about the planned withdrawal from Afghanistan, noting that the U.S. military presence would decrease from 8,600 to 4,500 by late October.The left immediately responded in the braindead, drearily-predictable, automated way that NPC brainless Meat Robots always do:

Yeah, I was all wrong on that.
We're back to the failure of our leaders to address directly and forthrightly the failures of theory. I do not trust any of the we must send troops on the ground people because the last 20+ years have proven that once the troops are on the ground, they will be given impossible ROE and provided no real political support whatsoever.
If we aren't willing as a country to take hard steps and support hard choices, then I do not support another servicemember getting so much as a paper cut in the Middle East.

Nobel Prizes, even in chemistry and physics, generally are kind of bullshit, for a variety of reasons.
First, there's a hefty political component, wherein faculty get solicited to support someone's candidacy. Conversely, someone who is unpopular but otherwise deserving is a real long-shot to get it.
Second, is the notion that it is possible to narrow down an advance to 1-3 people. Sometimes it's straightforward, but usually there is a whole bunch of people working in and contributing to the same field. It's like choosing an MVP from the World Series-winning team.
Third, and closely related the second, is the fact that a Nobel Prize can only be split at most three ways. If there are four guys who all contributed so much that it would invidious to omit any of them, guess what? No Nobel Prize for that advance.
Fourth, also closely related to the previous two, is what happens when someone has been working for decades on something, and someone else backs into the crucial breakthrough after a few months' work?
Fifth is the highly polarizing nature of the Nobel Prize for some people, who want it so badly that they'd slit their mother's throat to get it, and it shows in everything they do.
For these reasons, I consider the two greatest screw-ups of the nineteenth century to be Karl Marx and Alfred Nobel. Marx thought he had the prescription for heaven on earth. Wrong. Nobel invented dynamite, then crushed by contrition established the Nobel Prizes.* Next time, don't help, Al, OK?
*The Nobel Prize was not intended to be the crowning achievement of a career, but rather to be a way of supporting promising young investigators, rather like the baby Dreyfus does now.

A fair number of them are gloating that the people being burned out are mostly rural conservatives, who deserve it for being global warming Deniers.
These rural refugees particularly deserve it, because the GOP walked out of the Oregon legislature last year to block the passage of a stupid, bloated "global warming" bill.

All true. And Trump isn't afraid of two-party deals, which makes him damn near alone in international diplomacy. He is more than willing to eschew multilateral mega-deals and get done what he can get done with whomever. It is, in my opinion, the most exciting development in foreign policy since the end of WWII.

Iraq wasn't a failure. We removed Saddam, who was a danger to the region, and by 2009 Iraq was stable, if fragile. Heck, by 2010 Iran was about ready to collapse. I would argue the removing Saddam actually helped undermine the Mullahs, since it was the Iran-Iraq war which allowed them to cement their grip on the country and eliminate any challengers. He was always going to be the rabid dog which they could point to and say, "see, without us you'd be subject to him."
The problems that followed after 2009 were due to the removal of US influence from Iraq, and the decision by the Obama admin to cede influence over the Middle East to Iran.

Quick internet search reveals this:
Adolph Hitler was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1939 but according to the Nobel Prize website the person who nominated him, a member of the Swedish parliament and an anti-fascist named E.G.C. Brandt, meant the nomination as a satirical criticism in reaction to the nomination of then British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlin, "a nomination which Brandt viewed with great skepticism." The nomination didn't get too far after it was met with push back from the committee and withdrawn from consideration.
So, UberFacts is saying that Christian Tybring-Gjedde is issuing satire? In response to what?
The media. Further proving they're the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE.

But just for fun, 2 key actual facts without which it is extremely unlikely there would today be a UAE-Israel rapprochement.
Taking out the Ba'athist regime in Iraq was important and done for other reasons, but a clear benefit was removing the key, dominant thug in the eastern Arab world. No such UAE move was imaginable in that different world that the US changed dramatically.
And the useful and wise move of removing the big swinging schlong of the eastern Arab world was made 100 times as "useful" and consequential by the unfathomable Obama-era idiocy of foolishly ending our firm containment/disruption policy towards Iran (i.e., though often with far too little energy, participating in the war that regime has waged against us and every regional ally since 1979).
The Iraqi menace removed, the Persian menace unleased = Gulfies scurrying to Israel's open arms (and the UAE has just been the most open and formal about it, there's been a lot more going on with all of them).

Taking out the Ba'athist regime in Iraq was important and done for other reasons, but a clear benefit was removing the key, dominant thug in the eastern Arab world. No such UAE move was imaginable in that different world that the US changed dramatically.
And the useful and wise move of removing the big swinging schlong of the eastern Arab world was made 100 times as "useful" and consequential by the unfathomable Obama-era idiocy of foolishly ending our firm containment/disruption policy towards Iran (i.e., though often with far too little energy, participating in the war that regime has waged against us and every regional ally since 1979).
The Iraqi menace removed, the Persian menace unleased = Gulfies scurrying to Israel's open arms (and the UAE has just been the most open and formal about it, there's been a lot more going on with all of them).

Removing Saddam gave the Saudis and others breathing room to start making the necessary adjustments. It also demonstrated that the US was still the biggest, baddest motherfucker on the block, and was willing to get into a slugging match. 9/11 occurred in part because Bin Laden and others believed that we weren't willing to get into the mud and suffer casualties.
Iraq demonstrated that we still knew how to fight and that we could adapt as needed, and that we could maintain a commitment to the fight.

Now that we have failed at nation-building, and now being two days from the 19th anniversary of the 9-11 atrocity, I say let's go back to Plan A, which was to nuke Mecca and several other Muslim cities. We got only about 1% of the payback we intended to inflict soon after 9-11. I'm looking at YOU, Saudi Arabia.
But in future, no more wars for "allies." We fight for only ourselves from now on. I'm looking at YOU, Taiwan, and at YOU, Europe.

BREAKING: Trump's Support Among Likely Black Voters Surges to 42%: Rasmussen
"We'd been hearing rumblings, seeing some anecdotal evidence and even a bit of polling data to suggest that President Donald Trump is going to do much better with black voters in November than he did in 2016.
But data just released by polling firm Rasmussen Reports blows even our wildest anticipation out of the water.
According to the firm, President Trump's support among likely black voters hasn't just gone up a bit, it has exploded, no doubt thanks in large part to his and the Republican Party's continuous outreach which was on full display during the party's recent convention.

I don't believe any of it. That the white support is so low or that the black support is so high.
Trump will get 12-15% of the black vote, not 42%. Which will be great, but not 42%.
And the other non-white at 56%? Please. Most racial groups are pretty hard to the left including Asians and Indians. Hispanics tend to be pretty even overall in comparison, but I don't buy the 56% at all.
I do think Trump's going to do well, but not that well, and not that badly with whites.

Nope. Just with the email header "emails". Discovery evidence always goes to the opposition. This is insane.
I just strongly objected to "emails" being sent to the Judge through her secretary in a reply and noted we had been working on a final consent order to present to the judge ( which they were aware of), she acted in bad faith, deprived me of calling witnesses and presenting a case.
There are no rules. There is no law. Just give discovery straight to the Judge's secretary and the Clerk of the Court unverified "emails".

Iraq demonstrated that we still knew how to fight and that we could adapt as needed, and that we could maintain a commitment to the fight." - CO Alex
First paragraph, absolutely. Intimidation/demonstration of will and power are of course basic to human affairs and international conflict. And the intimidation factor of taking out the Iraq regime yielded a lot more than Ghaddafi/Qadafi/Kadafi screaming and begging like a Navajo and throwing open the kimono on his WMDs, or the suddenly abundant cooperation from normally cagey actors on the Khan operation or AQ and several other things.
Second paragraph. Um, not sure. Know how to fight, sure - after an inexcusable period of clear incompetence - hello Gen. Casey, and Gen. Chiarelli.
Will to fight and pay a price? Not so much. Besides, it's equally a question of being serious. Country as a whole clearly not.

For S&Gs, I decided to go to the National Review website (for the first time in a long time) and see what Jay Nordlinger, NeverTrumper, has to say about this Nobel development.
He wrote a pretty good book about the history of the Nobel Peace Prize, and I figured he would have some comments.

He told a story about how when the Go Go's were just starting out, as a part of what they did to "make it" was a BJ line after their set, in the back, which included the security guards.

A lot of the perceived trouble Trump has in Arizona is because McSally is running for Senate. She's a total drag on the ticket. Sometimes we forget that works both ways. We need to do everything possible to re-elect Mitch's bitches because of the present crisis, but the GOP either will do better with its down ballot candidates in the future or die.

Plenty of company and field grade officers as well as NCOs demonstrated that we still knew how to fight, not to mention steamrolling the Iraqi army in a matter of weeks. And we got very good at killing insurgents when they thought to do more than plant bombs in the road or to take potshots from a safe distance. And when things started to go south, we didn't pull out, we increased the number of troops in country and extended deployments. So yes, willing to fight and knowing how to fight.

NV is sending people out to check casinos to make sure they are complying with the mask mandates and the casinos are running scared.

I'm reading that Moron-recommended book about Faraday and Maxwell right now. Faraday was a strict empiricist. He would not believe anything, until he saw experimental proof for himself, done by himself.
Relying on wishcasting and hopes is just a waste of time. I say, let the experts do the polling, and let _them_ be the ones to look stupid when the experiment is over.

It's a history book, accessible to laymen, little or no math. it's good if you like details about inconsequential things like what was 9-year-old Faraday's street address and so forth. But I'm glad to be reading it.
If I could become expert enough to teach a good course on Maxwell's Equations, I would die happy.

Yeah if they thought Trump wouldn't have the stones to hit Biden on his frailty, they were WRONG. They never learn. Don't throw a frail person at DJT. They needed someone young, energetic, relatively unblemished, and attractive to have a chance here.
Give him a glaring weakness like senility, and he'll dig into it. Forget the old man's corruption. Trump probably doesn't even need to bring it up. But he most certainly will.
