Don't Be Fooled

My grandfather was a pilot in WW2. I have family and lots of friends who've served our country, and I am very thankful for the military. 

Yes, I protest against this war, but I am not protesting against the people who serve in the military. To be honest, I am quite concerned that the lives of our military soldiers are being endangered along with the lives of so many innocent Iranians. According to abcnews.com, officials in Iran claimed that students at an Iranian all-girls elementary school were among those killed during the U.S. and Israeli military strikes this morning. War always harms the innocent much more than it harms those who decided to start the war. Always.

In a magic show, a magician will do something "splashy" to get the audience to look where the magician wants them to look, so the magician can make what the audience had been looking at "go away". In other words, if a person wants you to stop paying attention to something important, they might do something "splashy" so you'll look over at the "splashy event" and stop focusing on what they don't want you to pay attention to. I know...that's a lot, but it sure seems like lots of "splashy" things have either occured or come back up lately: 

  • ICE
  • Tarrifs
  • Venezuala 
  • Greenland
  • Board of Peace
  • an unusual Supreme Court decision 
  • UFO Files
  • and now this...War. 

I wonder what this administration might want us to stop paying attention to?
Oh, that's right, the Epstein Files!! However, WE WILL NOT stop paying attention to them. Yes, there are lots of crisis occuring, but that doesn't mean that we are going to stop paying attention to the Epstein Files.  
We will not forget. 
We cannot forget. 
We will not be fooled.
