Is it at all possible that the Abrams tanks in Washington D.C. during July could ultimately lead to election-year "Missiles of October" over Tehran?

"A tyrant does not make his tyranny possible. It is made by the people, not otherwise" - Jack Parsons

It's late Independence Day's eve and America's dotard"Commander in Chief" is perhaps giddily beside himself in anticipation of pulling off what's got to be among the most salacious of any mid-elementary school-age boy's Freudian fantasy: a full-blast military parade. Yep. He's ordered up the whole shebang: the Blue Angels, Bradley Fighting Vehicles, Abrams battle tanks, multitudes of multi-star generals, weapons parades, military honor guards, stealth fighter flyovers and of course, fireworks.

I'll let others be the judge as to what the desire for such a grandiloquent display of lethal military capability reveals about the psyche of a figure hailed as "god emperor" by many of his supporters. But in making any judgment, one must take into account that the figure being ostensibly force-feted this Independence Day by "my generals" - as he like to call them - is the same individual who, when called to step forward to serve in his country's military, chose instead to stand down.

Bone spurs, he claimed. Had a doctor's note to prove it. And so, cleared of service to his country via a doctor's note later determined to be phony, he then embarked upon what he later characterized as his"personal Vietnam . "His mission? To ensure he escaped unscathed from a post-disco era New York City nightlife scene that he implied was awash in STDs.

"(New York City) is a dangerous world" he extolled during a 1997 appearance on The Howard Stern Show. "It's like Vietnam, sort of. It is my personal Vietnam."

So, was the self-acknowledged habitual p*ssy-grabber successfully able to avoid "feeling the burn?" With this guy, who knows. But again, I'll let others be the judge as to the veracity of any doctor's note he might produce that attests to his ongoing avoidance of the claps.

But really though, who actually gives a flying raw-dog f*ck? The fact is, I'm personally far more concerned over the presence of all those tanks he placed in the place many of us have long known as "Chocolate City" - Washington, DC - than I am about the fate of a guy whose general behavior suggests that he doesn't believe in karma.

Indeed, for many of us, images of tanks laying low on the streets of "CC" conjure memories of locked and loaded armored vehicles rolling through Watts, Detroit, Newark, New York, Miami, Boston and many other streets in America's "inner cities" during times of race-related civil unrest.

In fact Chocolate City itself is where tanks were part of the force deployed in 1919 to quell a days-long race riot "within spitting distance of the White House." That event was triggered by a lethal over-reaction by whites to a sexual assault claim that grew out of an initial allegation of two "negro" males "jostling" a white woman.

But that was waaaay back in 1919, you say? That's like the Stone Age! Way before Brown vs Board of Education. And even further away from landmark civil rights legislation that leveled the playing field. And we don't even call y'all Negroes no more. Straight up ancient history. f*ck outta here!

Problem is that here in this new millennium, the Independence Day military extravaganza is a MAGA production. And that all but assures that the "Commander's" tanks will be augmented by hoards of uninvited holdovers from straight outta the Stone Age - white supremacists - who remain hyper-adrenalized by their God Emperor's painfully overt endeavors to sustain the myth of racial superiority, thus adding fuel to a subliminal rage within them over latent insecurity about just how superior they actually are. Taken together, these overly fraught ingredients - God Emperor+Tanks+White supremacists +racial polarization+Chocolate City - certainly create the potential for fireworks. But not of the type associated with typical American Fourth of July celebrations. Instead, more along the lines of the kind associated with Middle East weddings.

But while "fireworks" of a non-celebratory nature in America's Chocolate City certainly could (at the time of this writing) be cause for concern, what's of equal concern is the likelihood that all this military-themed sensory overkill might gin-up the "Commander" into putting that military might to use - in the Middle East - specifically, Iran.

As such, I'm curious as to where John Bolton (who, like the "Commander," also avoided military service in Vietnam) be seated during the "Commander's" Independence Day tin horn spectacle. What about Sean Hanni will ty (who, like John Bolton, also avoided military service)? Would Tucker Carlson (who, like Hannity, also never served) serve as a human buffer zone between those other two dickless, chicken-hawk war mongers and their easily-swayed "Commander in Chief?"

Some of this begs the question. Is it at all possible that the Abrams tanks in Chocolate City during July could ultimately lead to election-year Missiles of October over Tehran?

Right now, in the hours leading to the start of our current "Commander in Chief's" Independence Day festivities, my guess that it all depends on the seating arrangement.

Now, as an old man, I realize the only thing I can change is myself, and suddenly I realize that if long ago I had changed myself, I could have made an impact on my family. My family and I could have made an impact on our town. Their impact could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world." - Unknown Monk (1100 AD)
