[This is now going to be my, every B4IN article, standard opening (as of Dec. 19, 2024):
I get it, I really do, all these outlets are operating as a business… And how do they make money? Advertising! (more continues: /media/2024/07/click-bait-here-click-bait-there-everywhere-click-bait-2515961.html )
Yes, sorry, frankly I TOO find especially the initial Ads (they pile up, to be able to get them viewed in case someone doesn't read the whole article) here interrupting a nice/natural Read flow and are ANNOYING (but it keeps the Site FREE FOR VIEWING no Pay Wall to have to BUY your way past) and conversely their annoyance may indeed keep some from wanting to bother (so, Please, there is some GREAT CONTENT here on B4IN, keep reading the entire pieces despite the annoying Ads) and note if you engage an AD BLOCKER often I have found it/they can cause issues with seeing all the intended article content --- don't want you to miss any of mine, nor anyone else who posts here entire content as intended! The authors images (some or all), videos (some or all), their intended cross-reference links (vs Site produced Ad links, the easy Share-At/On buttons, and more, might also get "blocked" from viewing. And so now, to catch any NEW Readers, I too adding to annoyance having to repeat this over and over. My apologies. I endeavor to always give you DETAILED WRITINGS (and cross-reference related links with other rabbit-holes you can go down) hopefully you'll deem worthy of putting up with the annoying Ads to engage in/with.
I am NOT fond of the changes, but I have been with B4IN a long time now - certainly not looking to leave.
Lastly, note: I also wrote for TheLibertyBeacon (https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard), where I dropped pieces (normally weekly) on Saturdays for the last 3 years (and even RedState back when) and now joined and dropping pieces via SUBSTACK (https://tinyurl.com/JLDonSubstack).]

The GAZA problem…

.

First: no doubt, if you bother to read my pieces even only on occasion, you’ve likely seen me say my DISDAIN for drive-by/pot-shot posts lacking DETAILS* cuz #DETAILSmatter* #CONTEXTmatters* #HISTORYmatters* etc… HOWEVER, just have too much going on to invest the time to do all that BUT have to at least address this at a brief 30,000 foot level….
.
From Social-Media post I just made across most my 15+ platforms I am on…
.
IF the #UnitedNations is going to continue to be allowed to exist, it is TIME for the games to stop and them stop pretending to be worth anything UNLESS they take the lead on what #Trump has been talking about regarding NEED for OUTSIDE FORCE to handle the #GAZA situation. #UN needs commit PEACE-KEEPER FORCE composed of Arab/Muslim Nations of the Region comprising it to occupy GAZA for likely the next 3 decades AT MINIMUM to assure #HAMAS or any other #TERRORISTS group does not control it and use as #IRAN proxy base to launch attacks on others (NOT just #Israel, but too still going on in #Iraq, #Syria, and other locales) so that indeed the debris can be cleared and LEGIT BUILDING ACTIVITIES engaged (not Terror HQs, and Terror Tunnels, etc., hiding within Civilian population and Infrastructure)! IF there is to be any Peace really in Syria or Lebanon going forward, THERE TOO (but, again, it must be Saudi, Egypt, Jordan, others shown willingness with Abraham Accords to work toward REAL PEACE and COOPERATION throughout that Region)! But, of course, we all know #China will oppose as well as #Iran and #Russia would use its Security Council VETO!
