Rationalism, Faith and Nationalism
Alastair Crooke says that US policy in West Asia is failing because of secular, rationalistic, mechanistic thinking coming from the Enlightenment which is insufficient to understand the non-rational values of religious faith coming from both Israel and Iran. Israel, in particular, has become “messianic”. Zionism used to be justified by the need for Jews to have a safe place to live. Its leaders were secular.

Oil Production In The Persian Gulf Has Fallen 57 Percent From Pre-War Levels – Rationing And Shortages Are Coming

The ‘sprawling, crazed manifesto’ by the Attempted Trump-Assassinator
27 April 2026, posted by Eric Zuesse. (All of my recent articles can be seen here.)Cole Allen’s explanation of why he attempted to assassinate President Trump was published in full in the April 26th edition of the Republican Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post, and the reader-comments to it generally blamed the Democratic Party for this attempted assassination because the self-described perpetrator votes for the Democratic Party, which is to say they blame all who vote for Democratic Party nominees a
