Trump Democracy

[MotorCityRadioFreak]

I support a cease fire with a two state solution. Enough already.

[zzand]

It isn't this country or any country's decision to make. It is up to Israel.

[Lester The Nightfly]

I have a solution to this whole Israel-Palestine thing… just nuke all of them and be done with it. They won’t ever solve it and everybody just needs to be put out of their misery. I’ve endorsed neither side in this solution. I’m just sick and tired of children throwing stones at each other without solving a goddamn thing and then blaming each other for starting it.

Solution #2… if we love Israel so much surely we can spare some federal land roughly the size of Israel and relocate them there. We certainly wouldn’t want that many Palestinians here so not enough Republicans would sign on. But we can get all of them to sign on to moving Israel and all of the Democrats to sign on to creating a Palestinian state.

Mine is simpler. Just tell Israel if they wish to continue practicing apartheid, which if you examine the practice is exactly what they are doing, then they can do so on their own dime. It is not a destitute country by any means, so let them finance their own political agenda without the assistance of US foreign aid. It worked for South Africa and now some 20 years on they are a better nation for it.

Apartheid? You got to be kidding me. If anyone is practicing apartheid it's the Palestinians.

20 % of Israel's population is Arab. They are also home to a fair number of Christian's. All with rights.

How many Jews or Christian's live in the areas controlled by Hamas?

[Bryce]

See, here's where you think you're scoring points against me but you're not. I don't support Hamas.
I'll call bullshit on both of them and sleep well knowing I'm neither an anti-Semite nor a terrorist.

I'm not trying to "score points" against you, nor did I accuse YOU of being an anti-Semite. I DO accuse many of the far left radical Marxists and Socialists that populate our political scene in the Democratic Party of being so. Their rhetoric has caused a rise in anti-Semitism and violence against Jews in this country and elsewhere.

Jewish people are being attacked on the streets of New York, which outside of Oak Park, MI, was probably one of the safest places in the world to be a Jew. Until now.

The Anti-Defamation League, a non-profit that tracks anti-Semitism across the globe, recorded a troubling uptick of both verbal and physical attacks against Jews in Europe, the Middle East, South Asia, North Africa and North America since tensions between Israel and Gaza’s Hamas militants escalated earlier this month. Synagogues in various states gave reported vandalism, swastikas and pro-Palestinian propaganda found inside their places of prayer.

Within the U.S., the ADL said it has received nearly 200 reports of possible anti-Semitic incidents, up from 131 the week before the conflict began.

And lets not forget. Iranian backed Hamas would have NEVER had the hubris to lob over 3,000 rockets into Israel if Trump were still President of the United States. Biden in viewed as weak and emboldened them because of trying to placate Iran.

And, kudo's to Ronald Reagan for his initiative which was mocked by the left and labeled "Star Wars" for creating the Iron Dome system that have saved countless lives in Israel.

Israel can defend itself quite well. We need to stop giving aid to them and let them fight their own battles.

Star Wars didn’t even work right…

I think the Israelis would disagree.

[G G]

I'll make it really simple.

If you give an aggressor an inch, they will take a mile. Israel has given up more than enough as-is.

If you give me an inch...... I always take a few inches in my mouth

It isn’t the same system. They may have worked out the bugs and upgraded a mousetrap but what Regan had in use was junk. It was a failure and a boondoggle.

Back on topic, AOC should be removed from office.

Back on topic, AOC is still my idol and should remain office.
