    Hamas attacks Israel

    Ok. Sure seems that way at this point, as all those Canadian & Australian “prerequisites” for endorsement of a Palestinian state all dissipated in the last week or two or three, etc… Now it’s just a matter of the PA following through on its promises, or not I guess, as that doesn’t seem to...

    What’s the incentive for Hamas again? To release the hostages, disarm, disband, etc…again? ‘Cuz the PA tells them to? Hamas siphons billions away from Western “aid” and UNRWA annually and they’re gonna walk away from that why again? Linda Gates and Warren Buffet? Something like that? {I heard...

    US President Donald Trump will push a new peace plan to end the Israel-Gaza war during White House talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday. Trump has talked up prospects of reaching an agreement, telling journalists on Friday: "I think we have a deal." But Netanyahu said...

    I’m thinking you’re throwing out a vague catchphrase without an explanation behind it, and was asking for clarification.

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Trump sounded increasingly optimistic last week about the prospects of a deal after meeting Arab and Muslim-majority leaders on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly. Under the US proposals, former British prime minister Tony Blair was floated in some media reports as a possible leader of a...

    It’s amazing how definitions change depending on who’s using the terms over time. Look at the word fascist for what it was 80 years ago to today. It’s interesting.

    Not sure if anybody did in the first place. Oh well.

    Ain’t that the truth. Proponents of the mission will argue this is a humanitarian act to protect civilians, citing the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion to delegitimize the blockade. This argument is a misreading of the law. (see link quoted in post#6566) The 2011...

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    If they’re “voluntarily” confiscating these firearms from the registered owners who can’t own them without having PAL’s & RPAL’s and already being in a database, knowing police can enter their homes at anytime, and their names are already run through criminal record searches daily…how many of...

    It’s moving again, & not symbolically this time. (Sorry, it’s a map, used as a visual tool) So, if this remains consistent, then maybe another five-ish or six days before they’re intercepted and guided to an Israeli port? So, maybe Oct 3rd (Friday) or 4th (Saturday)? Wouldn’t it be curious...

    Neo-Marxism. It's Time We Talk About The Obvious & Not So Obvious

    Ideologues on the Right and the Left both assimilate political information emotionally, not rationally. Conservatives and liberals alike tend to look at things through a partisan lens, and not in an unbiased way. Extremists, whether Marxist or fascist, are equally resistant to evidence that...

    Yeah, religion from the outside is pretty strange. Apocalypse, Eschatolog, Ragnarök, etc…The Book of Revelation? The Last Day? Judgement Day? That too I guess. Thankfully there’s microwave popcorn.

    Wait, are you saying that RC/GC & Judaism & Muslimism (?) are different religions with different beliefs?😳 Even I picked up on that about five decades ago. I’m not completely obtuse, just on the outside looking in. (YouTube & Snoop Frogg (Kermit sings "Gin & Juice"))

    The New York Declaration.

    After being awake for almost 5 hours, I just decided recently to put on a pair of wool socks. That’s not a good sign. I’m waiting for it to warm up so I can put a starter in my truck. With the engine that is shoehorned in there, and the placement of the motor mounts, I can’t even see the...

    Was early 1950 biblical times? Or do you mean from biblical times until early 1950? Not being religious, I had to Google this… Anyway, I’m pretty sure these are both outside of the statute of limitations for this conversation anyway.

    The New York Declaration.

    Well, who’s the negotiations supposedly between for this cease-fire in Gaza again? Israel and….Botswana? Israel and Iceland? Ending what again? I thought we couldn’t talk about stuff that far back? It’s an ancient history. Almost biblical times.😉. What happened way back almost two years ago...

    It’s all the rage now & the cool kids are wearing it. On that note, how much closer is the Greta Sumud Humanitarian flotilla on its “urgent mission” to Gaza now? In theory, they are probably symbolically closer today than they were a few days ago. http://globalsumudflotilla.org/tracker/
