Pakistan and DeSantis

 The creation of Pakistan in 1971 was driven by the Muslim minority of India, not wanting to be subsumed by the Hindu majority of the country. It was always about religion, and today Pakistan find itself at a strange crossroad. What is evident is that a country based on religion and an innate ability to antagonize all its neighbors, find itself in a position where it is virtually bankrupt Even more worrisome is it’s dependency on China which has taken control of large slots of the country. 

Pakistan has always push the narrative that India was looking to take over Pakistan, when in fact, India was one of the most ardent supporter of the creation of Bangladesh, or ans it used to be called East Pakistan.

What is the relationship then between Pakistan and Ron DeSantis both work under the illusion that people want to take something away from them. In the case of DeSantis, his strange vision is driven by a cult of personality with one a different, which is himself where the two compare is their vision of the world that doesn’t match wish the reality of the world and people are really beginning to notice in both instances. 

In the case of DeSantis, his anti-immigrant, anti-woke anti-anything that is not a white dude is based on the perception of the world that largely does not exist even in Florida. In the case of Pakistan, it is driven by a concept of Islam that has never even existed and it’s in the country itself, in fact, Pakistan is a case of two Islamic philosophies and not the one true word of God as the government of Pakistan as often state. in addition, Pakistan ability to snatch failure from the jaws of success is well documented.  Wrong conclusion, wrong actions worse outcome for Pakistan.

So why the comparison between Pakistan and DeSantis well, in both cases, it is leading to failure. In the case of Pakistan Crushing foreign debt a military dictatorship that is out of control and unsuccessful, in the case of DeSantis, dismal popular support for his platform, which are in fact Exaggeration of the platform, the GOP in general.

The difference between DeSantis and Donald Trump is that DeSantis comes across as a mean mean man Trump come across as a well-meaning, befuddled, older dude that you would be fun to share a drink in a bar.

Both Pakistan and DeSantis suffer from prickly personalities; in the case of Pakistan, they hate all their neighbors, and assumes that everyone wants them to fail, and in the case of DeSantis, his desperate attempt to out Trump Trump, when, in fact, all he shows is the fundamental meanness of the GOP. It may seem strange to compare the two, but they both face exactly the same lack of understanding of those that surround them. You only have to travel to Pakistan a few times to realize that this is a delusional society, and it has always been delusional from his very foundation I thought it was some thing that it whenever really was and assume others wanted it harm when in fact, its neighbours were largely indifferent. 

In the case of Ron DeSantis , he has struck at windmills that were entirely within his imagination. His attack on Disney is a case in point as this is perpetual fight against LGBTQ. those who know DeSantis say that he’s a very smart, focussed and driven man, but he is also surrounded by his own personal demons.  Attacking Disney has the support of no one it is mean, and it was stupid in addition, very much like Pakistan to make believe that things were worse for the other side than it were when it was evident, as in the case for Disney but things were not as bad, or even sometimes were very, very good. 

So what is the implication of all this, and a case of Pakistan a vast populous country is on the edge of economical and political precipice of failed state status. in the case of Ron DeSantis we are seeing plunging approval ratings among GOP primary voters. He now stands 29 points behind Donald Trump, and despite his aggressive stance on all social issues he’s losing the fight for the GOP presidential nomination.

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Tariffs on inhabited Island

 Two seldom-visited islands, part of Australia, saw a massive increase in the tariffs they will face when exporting to the United States.   The 32,000 residents did not have much to say...being Penguines.   NO kidding, massive tariffs were imposed on Heard Island and McDonald Islands.  According to the Australian government, the last visitor to Heard was about a decade ago.   Never mind the 47% tariff on Madagascar, where the principal export is Vanilla and the GDP per capita is less than $500 a year. Not only a Stable Genus but evidently an administration that took all of two hours to proof the list of countries.    They also treated St Pierre & Miquelon, two islands part of France in the middle of the St Lawrence Gulf...

Britain, France and Egypt

 The voters realize now that the Conservative Praty desire to return to 19th-century dominance has driven its hatred of the EU.  The voters realize now that departure from the EU has accelerated Britain's decline and may soon make it irrelevant.  At best it will have to kiss American arses to maintain its standing.  For this, the conservatives were punished.  The decline of Britain was inevitable, competition from Frankfurt and Germany in Finance was bound to grow.  The core of Europe (aka Germany) is aging quickly Macron seems to be winning his bet, the left alliance that won the legislative elections will not remain united for long, since they disagree on about everything.   The Far right though it was about to assume power is once again relegated to the back of the bus.   It may draw its own conclusions, but not all of these are good for France.  The far-right has won nearly 1/3rd of the electorate, that is not something to be ig...
