Let's get right to the root of the problem: "(AS PRESIDENT)" isn't needed!

When it comes to the any empire - including the US empire - there is a definite Grandeur of Delusion at play. But a democracy gives the illusion of citizen-involvement, so, if they implement is a dictatorship the whole system will fall faster on its face.

@HU Art Sound (2) The internet for all of its flaws and disinformation reality is awakening people to fact that we haven't been the good guys since WWII and only 1/10 of our history we haven't been at war, mostly on native peoples just demanding the right to live.

Well, there is a big difference between some government-people abusing the system to their advantage and the citizen of that country. The internet, when used constructively, can open the consciousness.

If literally ANY other CEO of a major government contractor made this tweet about assassinating the President and Vice President, they'd be:

- fired immediately

- stripped of security clearances

- investigated for potential criminal prosecution

No one in this country has done more to sow division, create chaos, and, yes, encourage violence over the past decade than Trump. It was only a matter of time before that boomeranged on him.

New Warfare: Exploding pagers belonging to Hezbollah kill 8 and injure more than 2,700 in Lebanon

"BEIRUT, Sept 17 (Reuters) - At least three people were killed and more than 1,000 others including Hezbollah fighters, medics and Iran's envoy to Beirut were wounded on Tuesday when the pagers they use to communicate exploded across Lebanon, security sources told Reuters.

A Hezbollah official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the detonation of the pagers was the "biggest security breach" the group had been subjected to in nearly a year of conflict with Israel."

Exploding Pagers in Lebanon, Raising Tensions between Hezbollah and Israel


Authorities in Lebanon are blaming Israel for an apparent attack in which pagers, used by Hezbollah in Lebanon, exploded simultaneously. At least nine people were killed, more than 2,700 were injured. Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, the Lebanese paramilitary group backed by Iran, had already been high and there were fears their frequent attacks on each other could escalate into all-out war. We hear about what this all could mean from our correspondent in the region.
