Lundi 18 mai, les medias du monde entier diffusent le dernier mensonge de Trump. Il déclare reporter les frappes générales contre l'Iran prévues pour le lendemain Mardi, et cela"sur la demande" des États du golfe. Ceux-ci démentent et disent qu'ils "n'étaient même pas au courant".
L'Amérique a-t-elle honte de son président ? Peut-être même pas.

Le "siècle d'humiliation" de la Chine débuta en 1839 avec la première guerre de l'opium. La dynastie Qing était en déclin et les puissances étrangères commencèrent à s'emparer de territoires et à extorquer des concessions commerciales par la guerre et les expéditions militaires. Ce fut un long siècle qui ne prit véritablement fin qu'en 1949 avec la proclamation de la République populaire de Chine.

Thomas Massie a perdu son siège au Congrès face à un adversaire lors des primaires, dont le financement par le lobby israélien a fait de cette élection la primaire à la Chambre des représentants la plus coûteuse de l'histoire. Massie était l'un des rares républicains à s'opposer aux exactions israéliennes au Capitole.
Les dépenses pour la destitution de Massie ont atteint la somme astronomique de 32 millions de dollars.

A recent article by Robert Kagan highlights the serious consequences of Trump's military adventure.
For years, the Western political and media establishment promoted the narrative that a direct confrontation with Iran would represent a definitive demonstration of American military supremacy in the Middle East. In Washington, the illusion prevailed that sanctions, sabotage, selective assassinations, and the military shock of a rapid and high-intensity conflict would be enough to bend Tehran and consolidate a new regional architecture subordinated to the interests of the U.S.

The recalibration of relations between the GCC and Iran, and their views of Israel, will be Trump's legacy.
In recent days, a number of respected analysts have pointed out that Donald Trump is trapped in Iran. Despite badly wanting to get out, his only remaining option, they claimed, is to go back to bombing the country. They warned that this bombing was imminent and would likely take place while Putin was visiting Xi in China.

Un agent USsraelien était-il positionné et censé prendre le contrôle de l'Iran ?
Cette question se pose à la lecture d'un nouvel article du New York Times qui fait le tour du monde.

This week, President Donald Trump announced that he plans to give away tax dollars without congressional or judicial authorization to his friends and allies whom he believes were mistreated by the Biden administration. Can he legally do that?
Here is the backstory.
During the last year of his first term in office, Trump's tax returns were stolen along with those of 425,000 others by an IRS employee who leaked Trump's to media outlets.

In early 2022, I predicted in the New York Post that inflation would politically bankrupt President Joe Biden. Will the affordability issue similarly bankrupt President Donald Trump?
Trump constantly blusters as if he deserves the Nobel Prize for Economic Triumphs, just like he supposedly deserved the Nobel Peace Prize. In a January speech in Iowa, he doubled down on his triumphs by referring to himself in the third person: "Just after one year of President Trump, our economy is booming....

The lad who inspired Aesop to write, "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" (also known as "The Shepherd Boy and the Wolf"), has grown up and is now President of the United States. Since February 28, 2026, Donald Trump has released 11 statements suggesting the war with Iran was over or that a negotiated deal is close, only it turns out to be a hoax.
What emerges across nearly three months is a remarkably consistent cycle: Trump declares victory or proximity to a deal → Iran denies it or the facts on the ground contradict it → Trump escalates rhetoric → a new round of claimed breakthroughs begins.

As far as I can tell, Donald Trump is the first American president in my lifetime to be actively engaged in business while serving as President of the United States. I have no memory of Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, George H.W. Bush, or George W. Bush starting and running businesses while occupying the Oval Office. It is true that Lincoln was a known agent of the railroads and that Grant's administration was corrupt, as other 19th-century administrations might have been when the creation of a new nation offered so much to plunder to those with power.

The U.S. Government's plan for World War Three (WW3) is what it has been since the U.S. empire and its "Cold War" began in order to take control over the entire world - that started on 25 July 1945. However, because the U.S. has for decades now been spending over 50% of the world's military expenses (reaching "65% OF TOTAL ANNUAL WORLD MILITARY EXPENDITURES" in 2024) in order to maintain around 900 foreign military bases to police the world for the benefit of America's billionaires who control most of the world's major international corporations, the domestic U.S.

History often repeats, hence the saying.
About 50 years ago, gas became scarce and expensive. Average people found - very suddenly - they could no longer afford to drive the huge, V8-powered cars that were once the typical car driven by average Americans. If you weren't there to see it, you might not believe it. Try to imagine a world in which owning a car larger - much larger - than a current Mercedes S-Class that had a V8 much larger than the little six the current S-Class comes standard with - was not just possible for working class Americans but also common.

Les forces israélo-américanistes (dans cet ordre) ont eu la peau du candidat à la désignation républicaine pour la Chambre (Krntucky) Thomas Massie, populiste libertarien de droite et vedette des MAGA antiTrump. Malgré l'extraordinaire puissance de l'offensive ($32 millions pour une primaire, un record), Massie a réussi à obtenir 48% des voix contre le candidat israélo-américaniste avec 54% (plusieurs candidats, le total des voix exprimées dépasse 100%).

Lindsey Graham and company say toppling Iran is worth a political bloodbath. Is it?
President Donald Trump clearly wants the Iran War to be over, if the Iranians will give him a face-saving way out. He is not yet ready to give any kind of face-saving way out to the Iranians.
Should that basic dynamic change, allowing Trump to declare victory and come home, he will quickly learn that the people who cheerled him into this war will turn on him once he wants to end it.

Le Sénat américain a avancé une résolution contestant l'engagement militaire contre l'Iran. Quatre républicains ont rejoint les démocrates, signe de fractures autour de Donald Trump. Une guerre impopulaire qui pourrait peser sur les élections de mi-mandat de 2026.
Le Sénat américain a franchi le 19 mai une étape symboliquement forte en faisant avancer une résolution visant à exiger le retrait des forces américaines engagées dans la guerre contre l'Iran.

Le jeune garçon qui a inspiré à Ésope son conte "Le garçon qui criait au loup" (également connu sous le nom de "Le jeune berger et le loup") a grandi et est aujourd'hui président des États-Unis. Depuis le 28 février 2026, Donald Trump a publié 11 déclarations suggérant que la guerre contre l'Iran était terminée ou qu'un accord négocié était proche, mais il s'avère que ce n'était qu'un canular.

Review of Paul D. Miller, Ethics of War: A Short Companion (B&H Academic, 2025), xiv + 194 pgs.
This book is part of the Essentials in Christian Ethics series. This is a series "made up of short, introductory volumes spanning metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics" (p. xi). It is "designed to model for readers how the biblical ethic applies to every area of life both as a distinct theological and philosophical discipline in the context of the Christian moral tradition from a robust Protestant viewpoint" (p.
