The music festival situation where 240 were killed reminds me of Maui. You can’t organize an evacuation route in the middle of panic. It’s too late then.
I thought Israeli civilians were armed to the teeth, since basically in reality they are half of them reservists anyway, men and women ... and they went around with these guns. I was misinformed? Things changed?

Israel could end up fighting this war on three fronts. Which will be very difficult for them.

NYC support is 50-50. The Democrat Socialist Party has a lot of supporters here. AOC and a number of City Council members are members of the Party.

Hard pass from me.

But I’m curious, was Donny slurring when he “explained” it? In all the clips I’ve seen of him recently he’s been slurring really badly. Must have got a new pair of dentures that don’t fit right.

I believe the Palestinians have committed ‘Suicide by cop’ in their ill thought out attack on Israel. Did they not think that Israel would kill some multiple of the number they murdered? They value life so cheaply, and they know Israel values life richly. So I guess that’s how they came up with their plan.

I don't understand what's going on.

I've posted this elsewhere, but if we're allied with Israel, then why aren't we going to Palestine and killing every single person in that country? There are only five million of them, so it should be trivial. Kill them all and let that be the last time anyone messes with our allies, or the same will happen to them.

Secondly, why did we free up money for Iran? If Iran was holding Americans hostage, then we should have given them one week to release the hostages. That failing, we just rain nukes all over their country and then go in and finish off what few survivors there might be.

Nobody is going to take us seriously if we keep allowing this kind of stuff. We should either be willing to take a stand or should get out of foreign affairs.

What? Russia nukes us? As if. We'd just nuke them right back. We'd tell them that they can either let us do what we're going to do to Iran, or they can all die, as well. So what if the EU doesn't like it? I believe nukes work just as well in Western Europe as they do in Eastern. Tell them what will happen to them if they attempt to do anything to stop us.

Also, everyone should renounce all religions.

I hope it happens: apt.

Also I can't wait to have the feds loot the US treasury and bankrupt the tax payers to pay blacks reparations.

You are right, kenarman: I am drowning in White Man's Guilt.

I never knew you were a Progressive.


So your position is basically anti-immigrant. If you are not an Indian your are an immigrant to North America. I expect that you haven't looked into the history of Palestine very deep. When the British turned over a portion of Palestine, which at that time was one of their colonies for the creation of Israel, the Moslems were a little over 60% of the population Jews and Christians were the bulk of the remainder. The Jews had a major immigration program and soon became the majority.

It gets a lot more complicated after that with Israel gaining land with force.

My understanding is the fight goes back to the Ishmael and Issac era of the Holy Bible.

The descendants of Ishmael are not small in quantity.

Mary Trump had some unkind words for Uncle Donny today.

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

We should really just nuke Russia, at this point. Screw them.
