Differences of Opinion

I've made my opinions available for consideration. Respect for others is a good place to start. Can't we hold on to this notion?

 

My Stories

I'm told my stories are hard on police officers. My brand of truth can't happen because then we're in trouble. I lived it and see it for what it is. Sometimes the truth hurts and we're all bleeding. With pain there can be a gain. Listen and learn and stand up for the truth please. I had to stop and play a note for peace with a man in Dingle, Ireland. We didn't agree on everything, but we agreed on Peace.

 

Money is the Root of all Evil

 So how is the world benefiting from the current strive?

Hamas says it, good for them. I say it, bad for me. I'll continue to call it the way I see it.

Really no surprise, I suppose, that I'm censored on occasion. Can't say it any other way. I'm not about to be dumbed down. It is what it is.

Your comment on "Hamas says it repelled Israeli rescue attempt in Gaza, hostage killed" violates the community guidelines and has been rejected

www.curt-rude.com Fri 08 Dec 2023 03:54:55 PM Hamas wants us to believe it was somehow Israel's fault. The real tragedy is that some will no doubt believe criminals who lie, steal, murder, rape and kidnap innocent infidels (their term, not mine.) I see American students are wearing keffiyehs in a show of solidarity. My next novel has to highlight this mess!

Hamas Brand of Truth

I can't believe in this age of information that people took to the streets and protested for Hamas. Instead of putting together posters why didn't they educate themselves? No issue, large or small, can justify this atrocity. This mentality has to be extinguished.

Hamas and The Ivy League

Members of Hamas must be shocked and comforted by the fact that Americans attending institutions of 'higher learning' support them whole heartedly. Once upon a time things like rape and murder were frowned upon and not condoned as a means to a justifiable end. It appears the first victim of this conflict was common sense.

Censors, Hamas & Rape

 

Your comment on "Israel and activists accuse U.N. of slow response to accounts of Hamas raping women" violates the community guidelines and has been rejected

www.curt-rude.com Tue 05 Dec 2023 11:41:53 AM The Pacific on Netflix showcases the hell war is all about. With this in mind, being politically correct regarding conflict is being irresponsible. Unfortunately some believe their horrific actions are justifiable. These individuals have to be disempowered, because they haven't bought into the concept of civilized behavior. Hamas is an abomination. There can be no forgiveness until the threat is extinguished. Anything less is being fatalistic.

Protesters be Not Proud

So the point here is I bump into an individual who is the polar opposite of me. I was hanging out in Ireland and headed for the 'Rebel Bar' as the locals called it. I can't come to gripes with the Hamas Mentality and this guy did not sway my opinion. But here's the deal. We had a pint and treated each other with respect. There ya go!

Fear

If you don't stand up for yourself nobody else is going  to do it for you. I bumped into this protest for peace. Kinda shocked at the naysayers in cars passing by with raised fingers. Civility is more than an eight lettered word. Right?

Poland?

Poland has opened up to the wave of suffering crossing over its borders and deserve high praise. When you see it, you feel it. Human Misery on social media doesn't convey the untold suffering going on when you face it. The World Community had its very principles assaulted by one man who underestimated one countries resolve to resist him with everything they have. 

Sharing

If my stories have in anyway impacted you . . . please share. Now I'm off to a 'Rebel Pub'. More on that later.

Capturing the Truth

It's why I wrote my stories. Sitting down with soldiers and seeing the world through their eyes is bigtime. I wrote 'The Bee Killer' covering challenges individuals experience when they return to a 'normal' World. 

Ireland

This big-bad world gets you down shift gears. Hanging out with the local folks in Dingle, did it for me. Love the different perspectives offered for my consideration. Ireland should be commended for providing safe haven for tens of thousands of Ukrainians. Helping folks out who are so down and out is one sure way to find inner peace.

 

Guess Your Best!

 So who am I hanging out with today?

Inspiration

 

Hung out in Tom Crean's Pub. A real Irish hero and Sir Ernest Shackleton's right hand man. Irish Coffee's for everyone and I exchanged my story 'Brand of Justice' for 'An Unsung Hero'. That is a tattoo on John's forearm of the expedition. I loved the Irish attitude. Life is Grand when you're running around Europe.  

The Beatles

Westminster was the place where all kinds of good vibes were produced. "All You Need Is Love" is one example. Sad, so sad to realize we have fallen short of this ideal. Many thanks to Abbey Road Studios for their time.

  

Issues from Europe

Europeans, at least the ones I hung around with, expressed concerns about Tornados and Mass Shootings. "Why do Americans want to shoot each other?" I responded that not all of us like killing each other. Some of us would love to do away with the right to bear arms just as Prohibition was ended. We, as a nation, have lost the ability to be trusted with weapons. To much money is made on the sale of weapons currently. This money is funneled into politician's pockets. What about the mortuary business? (Joking) Take Ireland. That country has outlawed firearms and monitors weapons used for hunting. How many Mass Shootings have they experienced? You already know the answer. Education is our only hope. Start reading the People Shooter on this blog please. It's factual. If you're the type who is all jacked up by your Second Amendment Rights but can't tell me what the First Amendment is about, skip this exercise.

   

The Chase

High time for me to jump the pond and get caught up with Europe. What do they think? I have my opinions and look forward to interacting with those who may not see it the way I do. So here goes!

 

Palestine

Hanging with Pro-Palestinians. Every side has its story. Right? I mean this is the basis for my stories. More when possible. 

Stories?

Cleared by the State Department and I am heading overseas come sunrise. Guess I'll kinda be in harms way, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. Peace my friends.
