    I'll never vote for the orange guy, but this all feels like excuses and burying of heads in sand.

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Trump was Trump. Biden was no longer Biden. Biden can no longer move Israeli policy as much. This conflict will persist past the election and probably grow. The US looks weaker every day, which emboldens Iran/Russia/China and their terrorist proxies. The freakout is justified.

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Biden's debate performance was a gift to netanyahu. Either Biden will drop out or the dems will lose. Thus Biden is now a lame duck no matter what, and netanyahu has a freer hand. As the saying goes, who lost in that debate? America. Meanwhile, instead of focusing on Israel or women's...

    Of course there are exceptions to the rich and powerful rule. But they're the exceptions. But I don't want to cast too many stones. I didn't serve.

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    That is what some fought for. Others never thought that the Haredi population would grow so large and intransigent, and were making concessions to get the state off the ground. I was more referring to the children of politicians and wealthy people in Israel, and elsewhere, who miraculously...

    Well, putin most definitely is bad, and the UN doesn't say much about it at all. China's got it's hand up putin the puppet's backside and is tying to drain the west in Ukraine and Israel. Ironically, this is just strengthening the west as arms production kicks up and up in the west.

War crimes. Occupying school administration buildings. Walk outs. Strikes. It's gonna happen, I swear.

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    My understanding of the AP is that they have many bureaus, many editors, and many "journalists". Their political bent ranges from factual reporting to leftist ranting. I don't recall every seeing a piece I'd actually call conservative. Calling Hamas numbers into question is like noticing that...

    Aipac aka Jewish money (say what you mean) is so effective that wherever I look, from politics to media to social media to a freeway overpass, people are attacking the only Jewish state in the world. Our tendrils are many and powerful? Follow the money!

    Often not the AP. Hamas and UNWRA are intertwined and often the same. Were they in an UNWRA building? I don't doubt it. Did they use women and children as shields? I don't doubt it.

    Real life experience with Xcelerate warranty?

    Rodents were ruining cars, wiring, and more long before soy-based wiring. Maybe it attracts them more, but it's not a night and day difference.

    Real life experience with Xcelerate warranty?

    Rodent damage is usually car insurance issue. Tesla service is something I have avoided so far. Rodents are no fun. We're looking at getting a terrier since our current dog is only good at hunting stuffed animals.

    The Palestinians claiming to be a continuation of Canaanite culture is just as laughable as their concurrent claim to be a continuation of Philistine culture. I guess they're also partly Native American like Elizabeth Warren and all African American like Rachel Dolezal. George Santos is an...

    It's almost like there should be a land for and led by Jews where Jews can be safe from persecution from Christians and Muslims. Maybe that land should be in a location where the Jews came from? Oh, I'm just being crazy, I know.

    As far as I can tell from some quick searching, that's a video of kids in Jordan in 2020 protesting COVID lockdowns. Here's the same video, minus the lying captions, posted in 2020: That's the earliest posting I can find. Also that sounds like a police siren. I'm pretty damn sure Gazans...

    Tokenization of Jews is disgusting. (moderator edit) This is not at all based in facts. The complaints have always been about double standards against Israel, not about actual criticism. Oh sure, if you dig deep in some far right reddit thread, you'll find support for this theory. However...

    There is no such thing as a rules based international order, just like there's no Easter Bunny and there's no Santa Clause. Anybody who thinks they're saying anything profound about this on Twitter is a moron. It's Realpolitik turtles all the way down. Anyone who says differently is selling...

    The world has always been insane. Raisi was little more than a Nazi with a beard, one of the worst people in the world. I spit on his grave. The ICC is meant to prosecute when countries don't have rule of law, but Israel has rule of law. Meanwhile, China does not, and they're committing...

    I was not expressing what I want or hope, just what I think will happen. Gantz has demanded that Netanyahu agree to specific goals that Gantz wants. I honestly don't know where this will lead, but Netanyahu and Gantz are pretty close on goals, methinks.

    As expected, Israel will occupy Gaza and then grind away at Hamas until Hamas are powerless or all dead. The border with Egypt will be blocked. The people of Gaza will remain defiant and fight back, because they hate the Jews more than they love their own children, and so they will choose to...

    I'm sure things were quite different 250 years ago. It's a call in vote. I don't read too much into it. A few thousand sim cards in Vietnam can make a huge difference. Then again, it's Eurovision, so it doesn't matter anyway. Those songs are all mediocre at best. It always feels like a...

    Among Israeli citizens, I believe that's a small minority. Most are pretty content from what I've seen. Police don't go around asking Arab Israelis for their papers. Lots of segregation in that society at night. Not as much during the day. It's an interesting country for sure. I don't...

    The far left and the far right struggle for the crown when it comes to evil. Hard to tell them apart. They both demand ideological purity. Demands for ideological purity are the fastest way to make me want to punch somebody in the face (not you). Muslims in Israel are unhappy with some parts...
