Imagine a God-forsaken planet in a far-flung corner of the universe where the oracle of the know-nothing tribe came up with a new philosophy of life that goes like this:
If you are desperate to score
a win, but know that you'll fail, then go ahead, score a failure and brag that
for once, you succeeded at scoring what you planned for. This should allow you
to join the club of winners.
Now, my dear reader, this
tells you why God actually gave up on that tribe and went elsewhere looking for
better material with which to fashion a higher form of intelligent life. But if
you want to know what happened to that miserable planet and its inhabitants,
let me assure you the creatures were rescued, are now safe and sound, and
living in a secure place they call the Washington Examiner where they do
editorial work. Yes, they are the editors of that miserable rag … the one
that's no less miserable than the planet which turned the creatures occupying
it into a repelling organism.
Their latest piece came under
the title: “On Iran, Biden must not squander the leverage Trump gave him,” and
they published the thing in their rag on February 4, 2021. This is how they
play the role of a know-nothing oracle, telling their disciples they must grab
the bamboo lever left for them by the trumpeter of self-destruction, and follow
his instructions on how to move the immovable mountain.
The mountain in this case, is
the ancient civilization of Persia, also known as Iran. Minding its own
business, it had decided that the time was now to get off the laurels of its
glorious past, and start working on building a glorious future for the
generations to come. But when Persia began to work on its well thought out
plans to move into the future, it encountered the evil force that's known to
live by the destruction of others. And this is how the drama between good and
evil started to play itself out.
Because misery seeks company,
miserable evil sought the company of a giant in decline, and asked him to help
in the destruction of the rising force-for-good that is the new Persia. Instead
of teaming up with evil, the giant worked an understanding with Persia, whereby
the world got the assurances it needed, and Persia got the leeway it required
to grow and reach its full potential.
Evil waited for a new manager
to come into the house of the giant and give it a second chance to engineer the
destruction of Persia. To the surprise of evil, however, the new manager did
not need pressure or advice to do as much or more evil than evil itself. He
scrapped the deal that was negotiated in good faith by Persia and the giant.
Lucky for the world, however, that manager was then tossed out, and the old
guard was brought back to restore common sense and good governance to the house
of the giant.
Standing outside and looking
inside from a distance, the creatures of the forsaken planet, turned the
Washington Examiner into a bullhorn through which they constantly scream their
dismay at the work that the good is doing. They also shout the advice that the
oracle of know-nothing had taught them when they were on the forsaken planet of
misery.
Now that the new manager of
the giant's house, whose name is Joe Biden, has taken charge of dismantling the
work that was inspired by evil, it fell on the shoulder of evil himself to try
dissuading Biden from continuing to implement his good agenda. The following is
the advice to Biden that evil has come up with:
“Biden should approach the
process with demands of his own because Iran will feel compelled to make a new
deal. The Iranian economy is in shambles. At present, Iran is operating in
breach of its obligations. Iran's breakout time to produce sufficiently
enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon might now be as short as three months.
Iran has given the Biden administration seven demands in return for its
restored compliance with the nuclear deal. They should be rejected outright,
and Biden should make demands of his own. Biden should offer Iran relief only in
return for its verified compliance on ballistic missile research, new
inspection protocols, and removal of any sunset provision”.
As can be seen, the mind
that's at work here, is of the kind that would please the oracle of
know-nothing. These are the editors of the Washington Examiner, having nothing
new to say, but regurgitating the failed old advice that made of America the
laughingstock of the world, and made of Iran a model of defiance that can stand
up to the tyranny of ignorance and win big. In fact, Iran made incredible
progress by innovating and inventing its way out of sanctions no matter how
maximal and how evil they have been.
What the editors of the Washington Examiner can do now, is brag that they won this round because they had planned to sound like braying jackasses, and for once, their plan has worked as intended. Now they ask to be decorated and be given membership in the club of winners.
