 Deserts. Food deserts. Concrete deserts.

The Ayn Rand utopian paradise of contrived urban communities supported by industrial outlet box stores which we see proliferating today is unsustainable. The Walmart model has proven that box stores leave behind concrete deserts of wasted land, human labor, community unity, and public resources, all for the private profit of a few. Driving supply chain, food, fuel, clothing, shelter, items into narrower and more restrictive environments, both excluding the very poor and catering to the very rich. Food deserts which cripple health. Health deserts which kill the poor. Shelter, clothing, fuel deserts which eliminate the middle classes.

On scale nationwide erasing populations that once were forced to intermingle and learn to co-operated to survive, this devastating apartheid is crumbling the foundation of American societal structure for the profit of a few at the cost of the inevitable destruction of the many.

 History Occupation After rule by the Ottoman Empire ended there in World War I (1914–18), the Gaza area became part of the League of Nations mandate of Palestine under British rule. Before this mandate ended, the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN) in November 1947 accepted a plan for the Arab-Jewish partition of Palestine under which the town of Gaza and an area of surrounding territory were to be allotted to the Arabs. The British mandate ended on May 15, 1948, and on that same day the first Arab-Israeli war began. Egyptian forces soon entered the town of Gaza, which became the headquarters of the Egyptian expeditionary force in Palestine. As a result of heavy fighting in autumn 1948, the area around the town under Arab occupation was reduced to a strip of territory 25 miles (40 km) long and 4–5 miles (6–8 km) wide. This area became known as the Gaza Strip. Its boundaries were demarcated in the Egyptian-Israeli armistice agreement of February 24, 1949. Are you a student?...

 The depth of Bibi Netanyahu's betrayal is astounding, if events in my life portend the future. Just as our family, for money, took the Polish birthright of my wife Christine, and her daughter sought out her biological father then abandoned her mother; B.N. appears to be set to throw Poland, via the surrender of Ukraine to divert Ukrainian freedom fighting money for himself, to the Russian oppressor. All the while believing he and his cabal's 'father' image of an Israel  re-created in a King David like State and lying to the world about accepting his neighbors .  Abandoning, what we Christians and believers in Jesus born of Mary, of an Israel in a Christ like State where neighbors are accepted and forgiven.

  Dear Mother, How we got here, Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi (26 October 1919 – 27 July 1980) was the Shah of Iran . In 1941, he succeeded his father Reza Shah and ruled the Imperial State of Iran until 1979 when the Iranian Revolution overthrew him. During World War II, the Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran forced the abdication of Reza Shah and succession of Mohammad Reza Shah. During his reign, the British-owned oil industry was nationalized by the prime minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, who had support from Iran's national parliament to do so; however, Mosaddegh was overthrown in the 1953 Iranian coup d'état, which was carried out by the Iranian military under the aegis of the United Kingdom and the United States. Subsequently, the Iranian government centralized power under the Shah and brought foreign oil companies back into the country's industry through the Consortium Agreement of 1954. In 1963 , Mohammad Reza Shah introduced the White Revolution, a seri...
