From the editor 03-12-26

March 11, 2026 by Staff Writer

By Beth David, Editor

I cannot fathom (get that?) how I could live on this island for more than 30 years and not know that fog eats snow. Hmm…unless I did know and I forgot….just slipped my mind. Yeah, I’ll go with that…I think.

Anyway, it’s true, fog eats snow. I looked it up.

See page 12. 

I don’t even know where to begin with this buffoon. He thinks everything is a performance. It’s a war, people are getting killed, displace, their homes destroyed. And the Big Buffoon is making videos and asking people if they like the performance. He’s demented. 

And we are now officially the bad guys. We bombed a school. An elementary school. An all girls elementary school. More than 160 people died, 145 of them were little girls. 

And the babbling buffoon and his minions are bragging about how precise our weapons are.

But we bombed a school.

The ends do not justify the means. The means matter. The means define who we are as a nation. The means define our collective soul as a people.

We are now the bad guys. We bombed school with little girls inside and we did not even apologize. 

In this country, it’s individual cruelties. Emmanuel Damas, 56, was living in Boston when he was taken into ICE custody in September.

He died from a toothache. You read that right. He got a toothache, he was in ICE custody, they refused to treat him until the infection was out of control. 

Meanwhile, 700,000 people in Lebanon, the land of m ancestors, have been displaced.

Tell me again how this makes us great?

Until next week then, see ya,

Glory to Ukraine!
Glory to the Heroes!
