And we thought Trump was a dip stick!

I suppose it is disappointing that the person elected to replace Trump has turned out to be something worse. (Be careful what you wish for?)

I have watched and listened to Biden's procession through the US Presidential office, via the media, since he came to office and it has gradually dawned on me the man is so similar to Trump, one could be forgiven for confusing the pair. I used to think the difference was in the way each handled their corruption, double dealing etc, with Biden being slightly more adept at the ducking and diving skills. Now I am not so sure.

So, what has got my attention this morning, causing me to put fingers to keyboard? I have just learned (a bit of 'old' news) that Biden has directed that $7 billion of frozen Afghan funds be unfrozen and to be split two ways: half to go towards providing humanitarian aid to the people of Afghanistan. Isn't that big of him? He will take half of the Afghan people's own money and let them have it back, somehow, some day, in what will no doubt be trumpeted as a sign of America's largesse; "US providing $3 billion to ease the plight of the poor and starving people of Afghanistan". I have absolutely no doubt we will not see a headline like "US returns $3billion of the Afghan people's own money".

And what of the other 50% of the frozen funds? He is going to use that to compensate victims of the 9/11 attack. What did the Afghan people have to do with that attack? I thought it long established that the perpetrators of that attack were Saudis. Quite a number of those were from an area called Al Baha. When I was last in Al Baha in 2013, the place was known for the amount of police deployed around the city with road blocks, ID checks etc. The reason for this, according to locals, was down to fears the 9/11 perpetrators from the region might still have sympathetic mates in the area. And, at that time, the city and province of Al Baha was well and truly within Saudi Arabia.To the west of the country and south of Jeddah in fact. So why are impoverished citizens of Afghanistan being made to pay for 9/11? How much has Saudi Arabia paid and when? And are we to expect to see the families of the 9/11 victims receiving more than $1 million each? I very much doubt it. There will be deductions for lawyers, politicians and various other assorted pariahs before they see any of it. And still, the source of the money is cash stolen from the Afghan people. While the Saudis get away with it.

Returning briefly to Sleepy Joe, let's have a closer look at him. In the next outpouring of despair, dismay and disgust...
