The Biden administration is intent on escalating tensions with Russia over Ukraine. Ordinarily, we should be demanding the impeachment of Joe Biden. The problem is not with this one President. The problem is with the Democratic Party.

Anti Russia hysteria existed before the 2016 elections but it grew more intense when Hillary Clinton lost. The left wing media began stigmatizing the Russians because Hillary lost. How many Americans are aware that Michael Sussman, an ally of Hillary was indicted for lying to the FBI about the Russian collusion hoax.

Federal Prosecutor John Durham released a report repudiating allegations that the Russians interfered in the 2016 elections. As it is, four years of non stop anti Russian hatred has brought us to the moment where there may be a war with Russia! It is clear that the Democrats are the party of anti intellectuals. This is the party that believes that children should have sex change operations and that gender is in general is a social construct, not a matter of biology. This is the party that wants to defund the Police.

The Republicans have their faults to be sure. The neo con faction is supporting the Biden administrations anti Russian hysteria. The sane majority in the Republican party however does not want war.

The Democratic Party is the party of ideology and the party of war in contradiction to the Republican Party of Donald Trump which is the anti war Party. The Democratic Party shares a fanatical hatred of Russia which brings to mind Adolf Hitler. Hitler also hated the Russians.

The Russians lost twenty million people during the Second World War. It is insane for any leader or leaders to contemplate war with Russia over Ukraine. The Russians have the reasonable demand that Ukraine should not be a member of NATO. The lunatics in the Democratic Party do not understand that Russia has been invaded numerous times throughout history and has legitimate security concerns.

Leaving Ukraine out of NATO would probably alleviate the crisis. The Biden administration refuses to consider this option. Biden is a senile old man who has no business in the White House. His wife who is a Doctor let him run for President and will be judged harshly by history.

Two years ago, the Democrats tried to impeach Trump over Ukraine. The Trump administration sought to investigate Hunter Biden over his activities in Ukraine when he was on the board of a gas company that was being investigated by a Ukrainian prosecutor. As Vice President, Joe Biden used his leverage to threaten to cut aid to Ukraine if the prosecutor was not fired.

All that President Trump wanted to do was get information about the Biden families wrongdoings in Ukraine. For this the Democrats tried to impeach Trump. Biden is a senile old man instigating tensions with Russia.

The Democrats are pathetic. Hitler tried to take Russia at the height of German power in Europe. It ended badly for him. It will end badly for the Democratic administration who history will remember as following in the footsteps of Hitler.

Greek President Sakellaropoulou was present for a design that will be established as ahall to memorialize the genocide of the Pontian Greeks. The Turkish government criticized the Greek President. To her credit, the President affirmed the historic truth of the Greek genocide.

One of the things that Greece can be grateful for is that it has good leadership today. Gone are the days of Costas Simitis and George Papandreou. In 2001, then Prime Minister Simitis refused to support a resolution in Parliament that would have recognized the Greek genocide.

Things have changed in Greece. Things are not perfect but much better than in the past. Much improved leadership under the President and Prime Minister Mitsotakis.

The Pakistanis are making it clear they support Turkey and support Turkish aggression in Cyprus. Greece has been very hospitable to Pakistani and other immigrants who have chosen to enter Greece illegally. Greece has shown good will and understanding to Pakistan in light of the fact that Athens has accepted their citizens.

Greece should begin the process of breaking diplomatic ties with Pakistan. Pakistan is now actively supporting Turkey as can be seen by statements of Pakistani officials in the article linked above. It also appears that China may be moving close to Turkey.

Turkey and China have much in common. They are criminal regimes guilty of genocide and crimes against humanity in the previous century. Turkey has been the recipient of American aid and assistance despite its genocidal history. China likewise today is the beneficiary of western hypocrisy whose scientists have bestowed aid on China despite massive human rights violations by the Chinese Communist Party.

The Erdogan regime claims the islands of Greece. That same regime ignores the soft genocide of Ughyur Muslims in China who are confined to concentration camps. Murderous regimes generally support one another.

All hope is not lost. Greece has friends in the Muslim world. Greece has friendly relations with Egypt, United Arab Emirates, and with Saudi Arabia. The Ecumenical Patriarchate has been engaging in destructive behavior over the past four years.

One of the few bright signs is the Patriarchate received a visit from a former Iranian President. Greeks have traditionally had friendly relations with Iran. It is important for Greeks to maintain these close ties with Muslim countries. Greece does not have any conflicts with Islam, but with Turkey.

Greek Orthodox Archbishops Serapheim and Christodoulos of Athens had established friendly relations and discussions with Iranian leaders in the past. More crucially, Iran is an ally of Russia and Syria. It would be to the interests of Greece to maintain friendly relations with Iran, Russia, and Syria.

Greek interests are based on resisting Turkish aggression. Relationships with all states should be based on their stances toward Greece’s interests in Cyprus and the Aegean. Russia in particular has reemphasized its support for Cyprus.

Greece needs to define its list of enemies and allies very carefully.

New York Times Columnist Thomas Friedman has suggested that President Biden remove Kamala Harris as Vice President and replace her with Elizabeth Cheney. This comes in the aftermath of reports that Hillary Clinton may seek the nomination of the Democratic Party in 2024. Hillary’s plans are a major slap to Biden who does not seem to realize that Democrats are abandoning him.

The Friedman suggestion which is taken less seriously than Hillary’s also seems to recommend a revolt against Harris as well. This whole thing is pathetic and exposes the Democrats as focusing on nothing other than fighting Trump even though the former President has been out of office for a year. The odious Democrats are seeking alliances with the more odious elements of the Republican Party.

One is reminded that the late Republican Candidate for President John McCain wanted Democrat Joseph Lieberman for a running mate. This was an example of how the lines between the parties was beginning to blur. Warmonger McCain wanted warmonger Lieberman for a running mate.

In 2016, dozens of Republican neocons endorsed Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign. Donald Trump’s election really shook things up. McCain made very clear that he despised Trump. The losing faction of the Republican Party has for some time been forming a partnership with the Democrats.

Take for example, Elizabeth Cheney. She is as much of warmonger as her father whose views she shares. Since the January 6 clown show of a year ago she has won praise from Democrats and the media for her opposition to Trump. Her extreme foreign policy views have either been forgotten or are actually shared by pro war Democrats.

One of the biggest mistakes Donald Trump made was to appoint John Bolton as national security advisor. Bolton has always been an aggressive pro war advocate and psychopath. He did his best to undermine Trump’s negotiations with North Korea and to start a war with Iran.

Trump did the right thing and fired him. Bolton subsequently gained the sympathy of Democrats and the media when he spoke against Donald Trump. He later wrote a book attacking Trump. The narcissistic psychopath was well treated by the media who ignored his extreme and fanatical views because they like anyone who is against Trump.

Friedman’s recommendation that Elizabeth Cheney be made Vice President is insane. It is stupid and the more principled liberals are rightfully mocking Friedman for making this suggestion. The media and the Democrats can’t shut up about the capital riots.

They seem to have forgotten the far greater disaster that was the Iraq war which Dick Cheney helped mastermind. Elizabeth Cheney is not her father but she shares her father’s foreign policy views. In no circumstances should she ever be allowed to serve as President or Vice President.

On the other hand, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden voted in favor of the Iraq war in 2003. Unlike all of these people, Donald Trump has clean hands and did not start any wars. Donald Trump’s Presidency was one of moderation and peace.

We have a President today who is clearly limited by his mental health issues. As such, he is the target of the predator Hillary Clinton. Unlikeable as Biden is, Hillary would be a worse President.

Democrats are starting a revolution in their own party. The power hungry Hillary is going after the senile Biden. Friedman advocates replacing Kamala Harris with Elizabeth Cheney. What does it say about the Biden administration and the Democratic Party that they are discussing regime change barely a year into the Biden administration?

There is speculation that Hillary Clinton would like to run for President again in 2024. That would be a good thing as Donald Trump would crush and humiliate her again. Considering the vile attempt to overturn the 2016 elections with the bogus Russian collusion myth it would be nice to see her career terminated at the hands of Donald Trump.

The Clintons are narcissists. Bill Clinton would do anything to return to the White House. He would take a job as the White House maid if it meant being at the center of power again. The Clintons have no shame.

Hillary Clinton is so in love with herself that she cannot comprehend that the media cannot help her. The media did what they could in 2016 to elevate her into the White House. Except, democracy worked and Trump won despite the media.

The voters do not like her. Four years of lies about Russian collusion and attempts to discredit Trump only succeeded in 2020 to the benefit of Joe Biden, not Hillary. In order to defeat Trump, it took the combined effort of the national media to suppress information about the corruption of Hunter Biden, the deaths of elderly people in New York rest homes under Governor Andrew Cuomo, and covid to determine the election outcome.

If Hillary had been the candidate, Trump might still have prevailed. Hillary is unlikeable and people are tired of political dynasties. The Clintons, Bushes, Cheney’s, and soon enough the Biden’s will be history.

The Clintons have been with us since 1992. We endured Clinton’s corruption and his vile behavior with a twenty one year old intern in the oval office. It was perjury and obstruction of justice that nearly got him impeached, not sex. If there is anything that Hillary did accomplish it was to discredit and expose the majority of feminists as the frauds that they are.

Hillary stood by a husband that has been credibly accused of sexual assault by several women. Most feminists demonstrated they would support any sexual predator in politics in the name of protecting abortion “rights”. Journalist Christopher Hitchens attacked Clinton from the left and exposed him as the reprehensible and unprincipled creep that he is. Hitchens made a convincing case that the bombings of Afghanistan and Sudan during the summer of 1998 were intended to take attention away from his sex scandal.

Hillary herself produced catastrophes at the international level. As Secretary of State she supported the overthrow of the Libyan government that turned that country into a failed state in which Al Quada and ISIS would establish a presence. She and her campaign were ready and willing to increase tensions with Russia in order to promote the lie that Russia stole the election for Trump.

Clinton political ally Paul Begala in 2017 called for Trump to bomb Russia in order to prove he was not owned by the Russians. These are the psychopaths that support the Clintons. Hillary became a United States Senator and Secretary of State because of her sexual predator husband’s influence.

I hope she does run for President. No matter how much the media works to support her, she will lose badly. People do not want the Clintons to return. Donald Trump will destroy her and such a humiliation will be well deserved. A second Trump victory over Hillary will be a nice and final commentary on the Clintons.

Anthony Fauci returned to the Senate to testify and engaged in a very bitter and partisan exchange with Republican Senators Rand Paul and Roger Marshall that represent Kentucky and Kansas respectively. As the lives of Americans are once again being disrupted by omicron it is infuriating to watch “America’s Doctor” behaving like a politician. He referred to Senator Marshall as a “moron”.

Mr. Fauci has become a very angry and bitter old man. This is not the man who should be responsible for dealing with the threat of covid. Understandably, Fauci is angry because he has received death threats and in December one lunatic was arrested for planning to murder him. Certainly, threats and murder attempts deserve to be condemned.

Senator Paul referred to the attempted murders of Republican members of Congress in 2017 by a supporter of Bernie Sanders and pointed out that Republicans do not blame Sanders for the actions of one lunatic. Fauci attempted to blame Senator Paul for the actions of the lunatic that was arrested last month. Fauci like a skilled politician is attempting to deflect attention from his responsibilities for funding gain of function research in China.

Threats are odious and vile but are common for public officials and politicians, religious leaders, celebrities, and many others. Fauci has the option of resigning if he believes the pressures of his job are too much for him. He is eighty years old and has been in his present position for thirty seven years.

There are those of us who are angry because our lives have been disrupted. Fauci is being criticized for using the taxes of Americans and sending them to China to fund the infamous lab in Wuhan. Senator Paul and others cited evidence that showed Fauci and Frances Collins at the National Institute of Health silenced and intimidated colleagues who suggested the origins of the virus were not natural but was created by humans at the lab in Wuhan.

The self pitying little man who the media calls “America’s Doctor” believes he is unaccountable. A few months ago he dismissed criticism of himself by suggesting those who criticize him are criticizing science. He reminds one of the Jack Nicholson character in “A few Good Men” who lost his composure and began ranting.

Both Fauci and the scientific community have much to answer for. Unfortunately, the propaganda machine that is the media will never hold them to account. Scientific arrogance can be seen by the disregard for the average person whose money they have used to help bring about a pandemic that has deprived that person of his personal freedom.

The ultimate hypocrisy of Fauci and his fellow scientists (the ones who support him) and most liberals can be seen by their collaboration with the most evil government on earth. Why were they even working with the Chinese?

China is one of the most ruthless governments in the world. Political prisoners are murdered with a bullet to the head. The families are then taxed to pay for the bullet. Many have referred to the “soft genocide” under way against the Chinese Muslims known as “Ughyurs”. These are a Turkic people that are now in concentration camps and are brutally tortured and repressed.

The scientific community have no interest in the mass human rights violations in China. That they were supporting any activities in China indicates how immoral scientists really are. Funding anything in China today would be the equivalent of funding activities in Hitler’s Germany in 1935. There are certain regimes that are so obviously evil that there can be no justification for funding them.

The media and the Democrats have overhyped the pathetic and ridiculous capital riots of last year. They have ignored the much more sinister realities that have transpired within the scientific community and the growing political influence of “America’s Doctor”. The man we must not criticize.

Former Vice President and architect of the Iraq war Dick Cheney criticized today’s Republican Party. He said he is disappointed in the leadership of today’s Party. Daughter Elizabeth Cheney referred to a “cult of personality”. The Cheney’s were in Washington for the first anniversary of the capital hill riots.

The riots last year were certainly not a good thing, and it was not Donald Trump’s finest hour. It was also not quite the threat to democracy that Democrats and neocons think it was. The real threat to democracy was the attempted coup/impeachment against Trump in early 2020 but that is another story.

The capital hill riots when all is said and done were a very minor affair. Compared to the Iraq war which Cheney aggressively supported, the riots are of no significance. The invasion of Iraq led to the deaths of countless Iraqi lives in a civil war followed by the further horrors and mass murders perpetrated by “Al Quada in Mesopotomia” and its Islamic State successor.

One third of Iraq (and later one third of Syria) would be occupied by Islamic State. Shiite Muslims, Christians, and Yazidis were slaughtered in cold blood. The Iraq war gave life to radical jihadists. Dick Cheney and his associates such as Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Douglas Feith, Condoleeza Rice and others had fantasies about “democracy” in the middle east.

The Iraq war was a disastrous failure. The rise of Donald Trump within the Republican Party was historically welcome as this led to the downfall of the war criminals of the Bush-Cheney era. In 2016, it became fairly obvious that Trump’s rise was a threat to the neocons. Neoconservative Max Boot wrote an op ed in the New York Times endorsing Hillary Clinton’s candidacy for President.

Hundreds of pro war neocons would subsequently support Hillary’s candidacy. Hillary would have delivered the wars that they wanted. The cabal of pro war schemers like John Bolton and others working in the shadows represent a far greater threat to American democracy than the mobs of January 6, 2021.

Dick Cheney said the present Republican leadership does not resemble the Republicans he knew when he was a Congressman. His Republicans left to support Hillary Clinton’s Presidential Campaign in 2016. His Republicans made very clear that they do not like Donald Trump who very much enjoys the support of conservatives today.

The Bush-Cheney administration created the climate for Islamic State to establish its “Caliphate”. Islamic State went on to terrorize and bomb Paris, London, and Belgium. American cities were also the victims of Islamic State attacks as well from California to Florida. The January 6 riots cannot be compared in any serious way to the devastation wrought by the Bush-Cheney administration.

Good riddance to the Cheney family. Good riddance to the Clintons, and good riddance to the Bush family. In 2024 at the latest we will say good riddance to the Bidens.

During the great depression FDR went on radio for his fireside chats to talk to the country. FDR was a President who exuded optimism. Ronald Reagan was like that as well. Those kind of attitudes are crucial for the morale of people during difficult times

The attitudes that media and scientists have during the present crisis is frustrating and infuriating. Omicron is a setback in the fight against covid. But, this is not March 2020 nor is it the winter of 2020 to 2021.

We have come a very long way. Can anyone say that the year 2021 was not much better than 2020? Even with Omicron, this is a mild variant in comparison to its predecessors. The infections in South Africa have decreased dramatically. The present situation is difficult but there are signs that are encouraging.

The Scientific community sees things very bleakly. I understand we need to be realistic and not be in denial. Do we have to see things in the worst possible light.

Scientists do not understand diplomacy or behave like emotionless machines. Take for example the Greek scientist Elias Mosialos. This Scientist was attempting to persuade Greeks to wear masks. A worthy endeavor.

This man posted a blasphemous picture of the holy family in which he mocked and ridiculed the virginity of the most holy Panaghia within the context of mask wearing. This fool does not realize that angering millions of Orthodox Greeks does not make it easier to persuade people to wear masks.

Most Greek bishops have endorsed vaccinations and have assisted the government in efforts to stop covid. Yet, Mr. Mosialos angered the bishops in Greece. The contempt for Christianity that this well educated Scientist expressed is an example of the dangerous divide that exists between the scientific community and many ordinary people.

People around the world are tired, frustrated, and angry. No doubt the Scientists feel the same way. But the Scientists need to understand human nature as it is. Human civilization over the past two years has suffered a trauma unprecedented in this lifetime.

The Scientific community has estranged itself from millions of people owing to the support given to the Wuhan lab in China. From the very beginning of this pandemic Scientists lost the confidence of people owing first and foremost to association with China. The inability of Scientists to show any form of optimism and the doom and gloom attitudes have not helped.

What are people supposed to think in a horror movie world where life has been completely disrupted only to see Scientists who have no empathy for regular people? Yes, people should be responsible and wear masks and be vaccinated. Scientists likewise need to have more empathy and appreciation for the average person.

Scientists do not relate to ordinary people. That is a problem and it can be seen in the example of a Greek Scientist ridiculing the Mother of God. This Scientist has totally undermined his own efforts to convince people to wear masks.

At a a time when unity among men matters, science has become politicized and detached from ordinary citizens. This is an obstacle that needs to be overcome. Scientists should not mock religious faith and they should be inclined to acknowledge that things have improved despite recent setbacks.

The anti vaxxers and Scientists have much in common. They both view the present world with a sense of pessimism and negativity. Since the Scientists and the media are publicizing nothing but negativity and minimizing facts that offer hope they should not be surprised that so many people believe that things are hopeless.

Orthodox Christians and people of other faiths take solace knowing that God is there. Leave it to a scientist to mock faith which has proved invaluable to so many people during these evil times.

Former Greek President and Minister of Foreign Affairs Karolos Papoulias passed away. He was an honorable man and a Greek nationalist who as Foreign Minister under the late Andreas Papandreou took very hard line positions on Cyprus and Macedonia. In 2004, the treacherous Prime Minister Costas Simitis, Foreign Minister George Papandreou, Constantinos Mitsotakis, and Dora Bakoyannis plotted against Cypriot President Tassos Papadopoulos.

Papadopoulos refused to accept a United Nations plan for Cyprus that would have solidified the Turkish invasions and occupation. For this reason, the above mentioned buffoons sought to undermine the President of Cyprus. President Papoulias refused to support them and maintained his support for a free Cyprus.

May his memory be eternal!

It has been proven that the National Institute of Health and its affiliates such as Eco Health alliance and the World Health Organization have been morally compromised by their working relationships with China. Their professional and financial backing for Gain of Function research in Wuhan has been exposed. Unfortunately, their activities have not received proper coverage from international media.

The first point here is that the scientific community refuses to take responsibility for the outbreak of covid. They initially lied about the leak in the Wuhan lab by stating that the wet markets in Wuhan were to blame for Covid. The refusal of the scientific community to demand the departure of Anthony Fauci (an enthusiastic and unapologetic supporter of gain of function research up to the present day) continues to undermine its credibility.

Leaving aside the nefarious activities of all the above let us examine the attitudes of the broader scientific community. By no means should the broader scientific community be associated with the activities of all the above. However, scientists have an inclination to be irritating by their apathy to the very real frustrations of ordinary people.

At the present time, the new variant called Omicron represents a serious threat. Fair enough to recognize this threat. However, Scientists act as if nothing has changed since last year. The media is not helping either but that is another story.

Last year, no one was vaccinated. This winter, sixty percent of all Americans have been fully vaccinated. Furthermore, although Omicron spreads much faster than the Delta variant as it has a much more mild effect on people. Granted, none of this is good but the fact is we are much better off this winter than last winter and the refusal of Scientists and Doctors to concede that things are better is especially irritating.

It is clear that Scientists and Doctors do not understand the importance of morale. Clearly, they do not understand the frustrations of ordinary people. This is not the fourteenth century in which the world was ravaged by the black death. This is 2021 where the world has changed and in which the outbreak of an infectious disease is far more difficult to cope with.

The world of 2020 was a much different world from previous centuries. Frankly, a pandemic in today’s world should have been unthinkable. Scientists and Doctors have shown inability to understand the economic, social, and political effects emanating from the lockdowns that were imposed at the beginning. Shutting the world down created further problems as can be seen by the riots in America during the summer of 2020.

Theologians understand that we live in a fallen world where man is a sinner. Christianity offers the sacrament-mystery of confession to believers because people sin even after repenting. People fall again and again and look to God’s grace for forgiveness again and again. Do Scientists and Doctors understand the nature of man and his proclivity to sin?

The Scientists believe if they tell people about how to fight the pandemic that people will just listen. That humans are more complex with a variety of beliefs and theories and may not listen does not seem to reach the understanding of the highly educated Scientists and Doctors.

The pandemic should not have happened. It happened because of the reckless actions of Chinese Scientists and their western enablers who failed to take into account the well being of the people of the world and the disruption of their lives. Much has been said about privilege in America.

Let it be understood that the most privileged people are the Scientists who carried on with their activities while the people of the world carried on with their lives not suspecting what was to come. One of the things that must change post pandemic is the privileged position of scientists. Democratic governments must take control and exert their authority over the Scientific communities in the future.

We have seen in recent years the scandals regarding religious institutions. The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese is a case in point with its never ending tales of corruption. The Roman Catholic Church is another example. As Churches and Governments are held responsible for their offenses, so should the Scientists at the National Institute of Health and elsewhere for assisting the Wuhan lab.

The lockdowns also deprived people of attending religious services from which they draw faith and strength. The secular elite in Science, Medicine, Government, and Media had no empathy for the spiritual and moral dilemma that believers in all faiths faced during the lockdowns.

Scientists and Doctors see nothing but gloom and death. This despite the fact that America and the world came a long way from the early horrors of the pandemic to the summer of 2021 where things got much, much better. While the year 2021 will end in disappointment can any one doubt this was a much, much better year than 2020?

The Scientific community needs to clean house beginning with Anthony Fauci who needs to be retired. They also need to fundamentally recognize that people need a sense of optimism and hope. It is not enough for people to merely be alive, they need to know that they will recover their lives.

One has to wonder if the Scientists will ever admit that the pandemic is over even when it actually is over. No one can deny that the Scientific community under Fauci has attained a great deal of political authority and influence unprecedented in American history.
