    i feel the same about you, except you are more of a child than a man.

    mocking aid groups who are trying to bring food to starving people, cheering on the IDF in the hours after they killed the aid workers.

    not to mention your mocking paul pelosi and accusing him of being gay after he was almost killed in his own home.

    youre a bad person.

    Shut the ****ing **** up.

    what do you think 400$ billion has done other than justify its existence and continuance to do so. Look at the deficit and the needs of every day Americans when so much in tax payer dollar goes to overseas ungrateful pos.

    the spoiled assholery is off the charts


    Send your tax dollars there year after year or shut the hell up. Americans are prioritizing a foreign oppressive and genocidal state over their own needs and interests. The gall to make those claims is so out touch

    The Israel/Gaza situation is one of the most important inflection points in modern day history IMO.

    The reason is we can NEVER have an event that whataboutisms The Holocaust, and while what Netanyahu and the hard right here in the West (which is Netanyahu's real constituency) are wanting to do with Gaza wouldn't match up directly in the horror that what the Holocaust, it's likely to be bad enough to where over these next few generations to come, this will be used as a way to downplay what happened to the Jewish people in the 1930's and 40's.

    I totally understand what Chuck Schumer a week or so ago was getting at with his condemnation of Netanyahu. Because as a Jewish man himself, he understands what is happening from a humanitarian perspective.

    We are losing our sense of what we learned in our history. We'll never truly live up to the standards we try to set, or how we like to think of ourselves. But most good people want to believe we learn, and improve as a society.

    If Netanyahu and his right wing allies, and corrupt strongmen in the West are allowed to do whatever they want ESPECIALLY with help from the US as a stepping stone, we'll be in a very very bad place not just here in the US, but around the world as justification for war, and eye for an eye responses become more and more realistic on a global scale.

    That's my rant for today. I think Biden should make a major prime time speech saying much of this, and should call for Netanyahu to step down, and for the people of Israel to choose a leader who will ally with the rest of the Democratic world in a way that pursues peace instead of self service for political power. The Israeli people, and the Jewish community around the world deserve better than this.

    I'm surprised there's anyone left on Earth who thinks this irreconcilable problem can be solved if we simply just "peace harder".

    I wonder what they thought they saw when they bombed 15,000 children over the past 6 months.

    It doesn't matter if the Israeli leader is Netanyahu or someone else. It doesn't matter if a new Israeli leader were to be someone who would make all kinds of concessions.

    The majority of the "Palestinians" will still want to murder all Jews.

    And so does a not insignificant percentage of Muslims in general.

    Those people doing anti-Israel marches in big Western cities and on the campuses of US universities don't really give a crap about "Palestinians". They just hate Jews.

    I am well in the top 1 % in income tax payers in the US this year. And I hope as much as possible of that goes towards supporting Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East.

    Oh, and you shut the ****ing **** up.

    But now how do we destroy the terrorist regime of Bibi and the IDF? We need the US military for that endeavor.
