The outside instance gives this no credence, but I'm thinking he's probably telling the truth.

Nice about Baha'i, I didn't know that. I have some (very loosely) NOI acquaintances (read, when it suits their ends) who won't even utter the word. Jesus himself said "The Kingdom of heaven is within you." That means the Kingdom of hell too, from my perspective.

There are certain Judeochristian adherents who, similarly to the Baha'i, hold that by confronting one's "demons" and properly having them subjugated and in your service, they then become your holy guardian angels. Interestingly enough, throughout history, several of these who ever held any seats of power ended up being fascists, although not as frothing as Nazi Germany or the United States, or at least hadn't the means, will, and mechanism at once to achieve their fascist tendencies on those levels. Others either ended up becoming barking mad, addicts, indigents, or involved themselves in the arts. A few carried on the tradition and brought the message to the masses, although largely were rejected by the masses.

I didn't mean to be dismissive of the image. I appreciate it and laugh whenever I see it posted anywhere. Of the three largest Abramic traditions, I went to the eldest, to the best of my knowledge.

I mean to the best of my understanding, Satan is a merciless, but considerably honest prosecutor in Judaism, but I could be wrong/incomplete in my understanding. 🤷‍♀️

That's somewhat unfair to Satan...

Someone in our triad the other day mentioned British mandate, and this feels like that.

Regular hope posting here keeps me going, and reminds me to keep my eye on the prize! I try to not let momentary despair get the better of me, but when it does, Rainpizza, Cowbee, and others bring me up. Equally, several keep me grounded. I feel like metaphorically, I was born in an ocean of emotion, my head is often in the clouds, and my feet are climbing mountains. Onward!

Two fallen, but only because tear gas had no effect? I'm at once impressed, angered, sad and hopeful.

I was going to ask, since they have an extradition treaty, why they didn't. I imagine the political ramifications that would be forthcoming from USA.

From how it appears to me, it's several fronts. And EU is probably on board, as well as bibs.

This is an unfortunate turn of events. I do hope our Argentine siblings will take care.
