What is President Donald Trump's best option to pull out of the Iran War quagmire with Iran's agreement to re-open the Strait of Hormuz.  What is the root cause of the mortal enmity between Iran and Israel? The present petition to President Trump proposes a peace settlement, which represents a win-win solution for everybody: Palestinians at last receive justice and relief for the 1948 Nakba.  Jews finally obtain not just the long-sought recognition of the State of * Israel, but also achieve once and forever safety and respect for Jewish culture and traditions. * Much more than pulling out of the Iran war with Iran's agreement to re-open the Strait of Hormuz.

However, in his way stood the towering figure of Theodosius, who had just ascended to the imperial throne after defeating all his adversaries on...

The great majority of them are just outright awful; but even those that seem to be good cannot be trusted. Yes, there are some politicians who advocate for social justice and the rights of the have-not's; but we all know that all politicians are hypocrites, thus they are certainly only looking for popularity, so that they can soon become a tyrant. Obviously, such course of events should be stopped by all means, because, as much as we may associate tyranny to injustice, it is always better to stay entrenched in injustice than to live under a tyrant.
