Glenn Reynolds: "A key weakness of America’s ruling class is that one of its major bonding tools is open contempt for those it rules."

Seen on InstaPundit:

KEVIN WILLIAMSON HAS BEEN A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT: It is striking that these defenders of democracy spend so much time attacking not Trump but Trump’s supporters. They throw outrageous insults at them, portraying them as ignorant poltroons who should learn to code, take up voodoo or santeria if they want to fit into their communities, and, for God’s sake, learn Creole. Trump has forced many of these people to reveal something that was either true always about themselves or has become true as Trump derangement syndrome has rotted their minds: they hate Americans.”

Reynolds link directs the reader to David Strom’s latest article in HotAir, and Strom is referring to the traitors in our midst, not the traditional enemies on the Left.

The new reality — now up on the rag’s webpage.

“Vuelven dos jugadores importantes, aunque hemos tenido la mala suerte de haber perdido otro jugador importante como Brahim”, dijo Ancelotti.

El técnico italiano decidió darle un día más de descanso a Militao para “hacer trabajo individual”.

Bellingham sufrió una lesión en el pie y había estado sin jugar desde el primer partido de la Liga en Mallorca en agosto. Su otro partido de la campaña fue la final de la Supercopa de la UEFA contra Atalanta, en el que el Madrid inició su temporada con una victoria.

Exploding Pagers Injure Hundreds of Hezbollah Members

BEIRUT—Pagers carried by thousands of Hezbollah operatives exploded at about the same time Tuesday afternoon, leaving more than 2,700 injured and eight dead in an unprecedented event that struck across Lebanon.

The affected pagers were from a new shipment that the group received in recent days, people familiar with the matter said. A Hezbollah official said hundreds of fighters had such devices, speculating that malware may have caused the devices to explode. The official said some people felt the pagers heat up and disposed of them before they burst.

UPDATE: FWIW’s foreign affairs correspondent in New Mexico has an upbeat view of how all this will work out, eventually. That’s an optimism I don’t share, because I believe the there is no possible solution to the conflict short of mutual annihilation — Israel will not agree to commit suicide, the Palestinians, Iranians, et al won’t stop short of Israel’s complete destruction and erasure from the fce of the earth, so … boom.

But we’ll hope that the view from the mountain tops is better than here.

Well, duh — everyone knows that the Israels would kill them; EVERYONE knows THAT!
