Putin wants the whole of the Soviet empire back. Iran wants the whole of Israel gone. Trump thinks money can be the deal maker but he is wrong. For some people money is neither the aim nor the difference. Call it vanity, religion, male hormones it doesn’t really matter, people will die and the USA ay well fall into an unwanted internal conflict between the judiciary and the fascists. Which is strange because I have always thought of the law as the plaything of the fascist mind. I might be wrong but I never really understood how people rule out democracy as being fascist. There is a belief that fascism is totalitarian and Nazi but the British Empire was an incredible fascist institution, as was the Spanish and French, Portuguese and Chinese.
Fascist brutality and indifference surfaces across the political spectrum. If it is truly a spectrum.
