THE BULL SHIT METER!

COMMENTARY: This was orignially published on Gab Social on June 26, 2026.

One of the nice things about getting older is ones perspective improves with age. So does our understanding of what I call the BULL SHIT METER. It goes into overdrive. The result is we see things much clearer and are not swayed by false flag waving, politics or official statements.

During the Second WW, the BS Meter was in full swing, too. The British Military, as just ONE  example, censored virtually ALL reporting about the North African Campaign. Alan Moorehead was a reporter for London Newspapers and he reported accurately on the war. How it was going, who was winning and losing, individual soldier efforts on both sides. Very little of it got through. The military simply would not let his dispatches see the light of day. When he got back to England and discovered the truth, he decided to write a 700 page book about the war. It is called MARCH TO TUNIS, and is very much available on the internet to anyone who wants to read it. It is a seminal work.

Fast forward to today. WE are censored, lied too, told the most outrageous stories about America’s very mistaken Muddle East War. WE we were dragged, suckered and lied to, to get us INTO this war that should correctly be called the Israeli War, not the Iran War!

As time goes by, the truth has a habit of getting out. Zero Hedge has a great, detailed article on where we stand in the Muddle East. The Wall Street Journal is now reporting on much of this stuff many of us have known about almost since the start of this disaster. America “lost,” folks, because there was no real STRATEGY going into this “thing.” Generals who advised caution were FIRED! Bombing a place back to the “Stone Age,” is not a strategy, does not work, as has been demonstrated time and again in the World. Americas bases in the Muddle East are so badly destroyed by missiles that the Pentagon is simply considering abandoning them all. Too expensive, too much damage. And yet we have been repeatedly told that there was “minor damage!”

When our own government looses all objectivity in keeping our citizens in the loop, then credibility evaporates. Best to be a “reasonable skeptic!”
