Heaven Is No Place for War Criminals

“‘I want to try to get to heaven if possible,’ Trump said, only hours before calling Netanyahu a war hero. ‘I’m hearing that I’m not doing well. I am really at the bottom of the totem pole,’ he added in jest. It was the sort of comment that has made Trump such a generational enigma. There appeared to be a striking humility in his admission that he was at the ‘bottom of the totem pole.’ But was it humility or simply a stark admission of what Trump, the man, must question of himself when he peers into his gaudy, gold-leafed mirrors at the White House? How can a man, any man, who supports the continued starvation and systematic destruction of poor, helpless people who were unlucky enough to be born into an ancient blood feud thread the eye of the needle? Furthermore, how can a man who has promised to end wars but has consistently signed off on bombing campaigns realistically believe he is a true peacemaker?” (08/23/25)
