A Madman and Irishmen

As the Straits of Hormuz grow calmer, Ireland begins to explode.

As the administration's trap is closing on the Iranian government (at least the fourth level of it, which is all that has not been eliminated by the IAF and U.S. forces) Irishmen are blockading major roads and streets in Ireland. Only the Guinness tankers are being let through. Ostensibly the dispute is over the rising cost of fuel which will bankrupt farmers and truckers. If, however, you’ve been paying attention, the rebellion goes deeper -- the high taxes, third-world immigration, and the highhandedness of the government. Under the guise of the idiotic net zero policies, the Irish government has been using the tax revenues which will destroy agriculture and transport to destroy their own people. Fuel costs could go down by 50% if the high taxes on them were eliminated, but then how to provide housing and other generous benefits to the immigrants who are destroying what had been a high trust, low-crime Irish culture?

But the “madman,” of course, is our president who, unlike his predecessors, was unwilling to allow the fanatical rulers of Iran to continue nuclear weapons........
