RE: Bumblebees and Persistence

The politics in America truly frighten me. It's like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to voting. I also side with the liberal side of things but it doesn't exactly inspire much in people when your candidate is a fossil. As for Israel and Palestine, yep, this is deeply linked to American politics. I've mentioned this in a post before. I can't believe how out of control the situation has become. I actually do my best to avoid news and politics because I get so worked up. WW2 was almost 90 years ago, heading for a century, and people are still milking it as an excuse for Israeli aggression. I'm not saying Palestine is completely innocent, sure, they've had to resort to violence too, but how would you feel, if after a global war like WW2 happened and the holocaust that came with it, which was obviously absolutely abhorrent and atrocious. But then the allies just decided to "give" Israel to the Jewish nation as some kind of consolation rize for the horrors they had endured. I get it, that Israel represents Zion, bit it was not the Ally's land to give away in the first place. I'd be furious too, if half my country was just suddenly given away.

Look, I've had a theory since 9/11. America is an oil thirsty, war economy state. If there is no war going on, they can't sell arms. They also cover up their thirst for raiding oil rich countries by milking 9/11 and Saddam Hussain. and whatever other extremists they can find, turning a total blind eye to their own crumbling country and distracting citizens with propaganda. America hasn't really been great in over 100 years, so I don't even know what Trump is talking about. I don't think he does either.

At least your bee is beautiful. That lifts my spirits a bit 💜🐝
