Just a short trip back to Thursday, January 31, 2013. It seems fitting to return for a glimpse of a little peace and normalcy courtesy of then 3-year-old Luke Kraft, his mother Spring, dad Brian, and pet banty hen “Girl”. It brightens my day.

Hi Kelly,
You question my outcome test. I think it’s reasonable. If someone does exceptionally well on a test he deserves exceptionally high marks.
If he does poorly his marks are lower; also, fair. If the marks are mixed the score is also mixed and lower. Trump has exceptionally mixed achievements, but in my opinion his greatest success has been in the most important challenges, like stopping the flood of 20-million illegal aliens into the country, when no one else could achieve that critical fact.
You say Trump exemplifies the “bumptious and vulgar ugly American.” Again, I would follow a bumptious winner before following a loser of any type. In the game of global war no one with common sense cares about the winning leader’s table manners.
At the center of Trump’s war is the (verified) fact of Iran’s determination to construct a nuclear bomb and to fire it on America and Israel. Trump is even more determined to prevent that disaster from happening. No number of warnings to Iran has dissuaded its terrorist plans. Your reference to “70 years of careful diplomacy and military doctrine” that gave us [peace] …given the world dependency on free shipment of oil along Iran’s coastline. You need to read a little more of Iranian history, Kelly. Look instead for 47-years of murder and incessant terror. The problem here is the fact that you do not believe in the threat assessments during those 47 years.
Yes, indeed Kelly, I do advocate “for wayward mankind to follow God’s command for peace, as revealed in Marian apparitions.” Also, Wrong! God’s commands will be found in full, in the Sacred Gospels, the words of Jesus. The apparitions are not Dogma. No one must believe in these declarations, they are simply, but profoundly understood to be worthy of belief, from saintly spiritual Catholic Church members. And I do reverence these apparitions. The most accurate interpretation of the 5th Commandment is “Thou Shalt not Murder”, not “kill”. Killing e.g. war, can be justified, e.g. self-defense. You ask about “the conspicuous event I await to signal success or failure?” Kelly, if you are unable to distinguish success from failure there is no practical point in answering.
If Trump personally offered a picture depicting himself as Jesus, in my opinion it would be sacrilegious and hyper contrary to secular spiritual guidance in the Marian apparitions. You give greater credence to Islam than to Christianity. I believe we will see, this year, where truth lies. I believe Spain, England, and France will suffer most. I think Russia will blitzkrieg into Europe, Islamic forces from former French colonial African areas into Spain while China and its communist allies will join the fray where they deem it conveniently unprepared. Ironically, I believe you are correct to believe that Russia could “bomb back” although it is losing its war with Ukraine. I also believe (per Apparitions) Russia will use tactical nuclear weapons as it retreats from its then losing battle in France. Marian apparition validity will soon be tested, as well as my outcome test.
