Golan: Who Should Be There? Anyone Who Can Take It.
Right now, it should belong to Israel, because Israel is strong enough to hold it. Or to anyone strong enough to take it away. The Golan, or the Golan Heights as it is more commonly referred to, has been a land of war for countless centuries.
In order to fully understand who should have full administration over the Golan, we must take into account the full history of the region, and weigh any possible dangers to the parties concerned. And we must also ascertain the fact that war has it’s gains and losses. In doing so, we must research the oldest known text on the matter, and to my knowledge, the Holy Bible is the most authorative text. Not the Quran.

Disaster in Brumadinho, Brazil
Aid in the holy doctrine that wrath of Mother Nature is inevitable and comes to those who forget the basic principles of faith.

Mainstream Media Keeps Making Major Mistakes
- In the last two weeks, mainstream media outlets have run wild with bombshell reports that turned out to be false. First, Buzzfeed claimed President Trump had directed Michael D. Cohen, his longtime lawyer and fixer, to lie to Congress about his role in negotiations to build a skyscraper in Moscow. The story led many well-known news outlets to begin speculating about a potential impeachment of Trump. Special Counsel Robert Mueller took the unusual step of issuing a public statement rebuking the story.
- A few days later media personalities on Twitter competed to one-up each other in their condemnations of Kentucky Catholic high school students who many claimed were mocking a Native American man at the Lincoln Memorial in a short video clip. The truth is that the 16-year-olds were subjected to a “verbal racist assault by grown men; and then the kids were accused of being bigots…How did this grotesque inversion of the truth become the central narrative for what seemed to be the entire class of elite journalists on Twitter?” asks Andrew Sullivan.
- Then yesterday, the UK Telegraph issued a public apology to First Lady Melania Trump for a Jan. 19 story they admit was filled with false statements. They also announced that as “a mark of our regret we have agreed to pay Mrs Trump substantial damages as well as her legal costs.”
- Former CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson has compiled a long list of MSM errors adding “we defend ourselves by trying to convince the public that our mistakes are actually a virtue because we (sometimes) correct them. Or we blame Trump for why we’re getting so much wrong.”
- All of this hasn’t generated much sympathy for the 1,000 media industry employees who got laid off this week. HuffPost’s parent company Verizon announced a 7% cut to staff in its media division. BuzzFeed confirmed that it will lay off 15% of its staff and Gannett, the nation’s largest newspaper chain, shed dozens of staffers throughout the country.
