    Hamas attacks Israel

    Why not a map from 100AD? Got to start somewhere like the present, or we could start before the USSR dissolved, etc…in the “Yeah But…” train.

    Hamas attacks Israel

    I could jump on the “Yeah But…” train, and just post a global map from 1990…but I’m not going to. Why do the Chechen rebels exist? Another deflection from the current situation.😉

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    I see Ukraine (invaded most recently by Russia in Feb of 2022 at the tail-end of the Ottawa parking crisis) and Israel (invaded most recently by Hamas on Oct 7th 2023) in very similar lights. Neither Ukraine or Israel are saints. Both have jaded histories (as do all nations), and both where...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    I’m sure you’re correct in your assessment of the situation. I see Ukraine (invaded most recently by Russia in Feb of 2022 at the tail-end of the Ottawa parking crisis) and Israel (invaded most recently by Hamas on Oct 7th 2023) in very similar lights. Neither Ukraine or Israel are saints...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Agreements are not Treaties. I get it. {Mutual Defense Assistance Agreement (1952); a General Security of Information Agreement (1982); a Mutual Logistics Support Agreement (1991); and a Status of Forces Agreement (1994)} Something like this means nothing, and could potentially be written...

    Screw them both then. Equally. Sink or swim on their own.

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Israel appears ready to accept a ceasefire deal, release hundreds, if not thousands, of Palestinian prisoners in exchange for hostages, and enter into talks about a permanent end to hostilities. Hamas wants the fighting to continue, is willing to sacrifice even more Palestinian lives and to let...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    In an interview with CNN, Hamas spokesperson and political bureau member Osama Hamdan offered an insight into the militant group’s position on the stalled ceasefire talks, a view on whether Hamas regrets its decision to attack Israel given the mounting Palestinian death toll, and a commentary on...

    Rapporteur David Johnson, Eminent Canadian

    NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says a recent spy watchdog report shows a "number of MPs" have knowingly provided help to foreign governments — behaviour he calls unethical or even illegal. Singh said Thursday he is "more alarmed today" after reading an unredacted version of a report on foreign...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Watched the vid (part of it). Iraqi Militias? Plural? Does that mean not Iraqi gov’t forces but Iranian sponsored terror groups? If the Israeli government & IDF sang Kumbaya with Hamas tomorrow…would that change anything with respect to the Houthi’s or Hezbollah or any of the others until...

    Haven’t watched the vid yet. Iraqi’s (the gov’t & the people) or one or more of the 1/2 dozen Iranian proxies?

    Not quite, now or then. This could give the crazy college kids something to focus on when they’re done hating on Jews. 😉

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Both sides…I hear you. The changes that Hamas has requested to a ceasefire proposal by the United States are "not significant" and include the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Gaza Strip in exchange for corpses, a senior leader in the group told Reuters on Thursday...
