I stand with Israel.

"Israel has not yet learned how to be multicultural. Israel is not going to be the monolithic society that they once were in the last decade. Hamas is going to be at the center of that. It's a huge transformation for Israel to make. They are now going into a multicultural mode, and Hamas will be resented because of their leading role. But without that leading role, and without that transformation, Israel will not survive."
Only 2.5% of Israelis are permitted to have guns. Hmmmm.
2a is there for a reason, protect self from the government and those who wish us harm.
Would have been an entirely different outcome if more were allowed to own arms to protect themselves.
So Israel has about 350,000 or so soldiers at the ready, but do they have Mia Khalifa?
When you’re right, you’re just right *shrugs*

I only looked at this because of your brand, Krypt. The beginning started out as a very dangerous high wire act. The salient point he makes is that the Palestinians hate the Israelis for the dire circumstance the Israeli’s have imposed on them for decades.Quote:

I have written over 20,000 posts on this forum. While that fact alone may indicate some trouble in my character - I have never joked about or belittled Jews or posted some dopey Jewish meme or pulled the Jew card with Druff when I’ve disagreed with him.
That I don’t see the dispute between the Palestinians and Israel as my fight as an American has nothing to do with anti-Semitism. That idiot shape shifting political opportunist bobble head DeSantis can go fuck himself
Hamas is a fundamentalist, Islamic militant group. This is not in doubt.
They have ruled Gaza for 16 years.
This group hates the Jews, not just Israel. That's the case with all extreme Islamic groups.
This attack was not on behalf of Palestinians, who are already suffering due to it, and will continue to suffer. This was an attack done against Israel for the same reason the various surrounding nations have attacked Israel over the last 5-6 decades -- Jew hatred.
The 1500 militants killed during the attack knew that this was a one-way trip. They knew that they would slaughter as many Israeli citizens as they could, especially civilians, until the IDF would eventually get there in large enough numbers to overwhelm them and shoot them dead. That was the plan, and that's what happened. A small number escaped back to Gaza or into Israel, but most of them died, and they knew they would die.
That's a fundamentalist attack, not an attack as part of a secular war.
Too many people are doing the "both sides bad" or "this is what happens when you oppress people" routine, not understanding that religious extremists were carrying it out.
You have convinced me to take a fresh look.Quote:

So, a bunch of student groups at Harvard spoke out to support the Palestinians and blamed Israel for the entire incident. In response, Bill Ackman and a bunch of other CEO's publicly stated they'd never hire people with such views and blacklisted them.
A Yale professor did much the same thing and now is facing calls to resign.
Rashida Talib, a Palestinian in the US congress, is facing mounting threats.
These people are what most would consider radical left. Nobody likes them and usually for a multitude of reasons. I can't stand any of them and shed no tears for their sorrows but, isn't there a big majority of people on the right who claim to take free speech very seriously and want to defend their rights to say what they feel?
Its actually ironic because most of these people were the ones who'd want to harshly punish anyone for not towing the line on covid and now they're facing the same beast from the opposite side.

There have been multiple security failures (allegedly).Quote:

I guess I gotta learn more about the whole Israel settlement deal. It appears they were targeted by Hama but it is a sort of “in your face” deal anyway.
I don’t think this has anything to do with the US but war is coming so I guess I gotta school me self as a citizen.
The US to a large extent begat ISIS cause foreign fucking around. Israel sort of has the same with Hamas
Seems fitting for a new verse

To learn that Blinken is Jewish was extremely disquieting to me. He has been a complete diplomatic failure with respect to Ukraine. I now fully expect similar in the Middle East.
One atrocity does not forgive another.
Prove me wrong you deep stater.
They turned the power and water off in all of Gaza and aren't allowing food in? Blinken is cool with all that?Quote:

He and Druff have a date to go see Oppenheimer when it hits the drive ins.Quote:

I'm always amazed how Ben Shapiro manages to stay in a constant state of extreme annoyance without ever getting actually angry. Whether it's Taylor Swift, Joe Biden, the weather, or headless babies, he's always right around 99 degrees but never over 100.
Just did, now am pro-HamasQuote:
