[Sharing] A Nobel for the Donald? – David Stockman, Antiwar.com
Donald Trump doesn’t really deserve the Nobel Peace Prize. Not after his unprovoked bombing of a country (Iran) that is no military threat whatsoever to the American Homeland.

Daily pictures: weakness and decay
I remember my maternal grandparents, living in Elsass, culturally German.
