Mr. Hanson thanks you for your podcasts. Please can you make list of books that you think everyone should read)
The Concept of everything the left does is good, and everything the right does is bad, is called “liberating tolerance.” Call it out for what it is, it’s Maoism that’s been adapted to work in the United States. His methods were terrible, but Joe McCarthy was right.

The U.S. needs to inflict a punishing sanction on Iran now, to make it clear to Putin that he is not beyond the reach of other actors in this deadly psychodrama. (And we need to pray, too, that he is not as senile as the other actor in this play, so that he still has some desire to keep living!)
In addition to Jill Biden and Tony Fauci, I believe that Condoleezza Rice should have been indicted in this episode. An unholy trinity of hubris contributing to the demise of civilization.
So, since last week’s podcast Mr. Hanson suggests 6 figure Russian casualties and 5 figure Ukrainian. Now, the assert
My experience with a year in Libya, and 5 years in Qatar, Oman, Dubai & Abu Dubai is they only relate to their religion which calls for the demise of our culture and religion. There is no other alternative.
