  1. Really? "Kill who you want" would seem to me to make progress easier, not harder. The IDF must be really slacking if it took them two whole years to kill a measly 65,000 Gazans. That's less than a hundred people a day. You really think that is the limit of their capability? Or, perhaps, does it indicate restraint? When dealing with a fanatic enemy, who use hospitals/schools/mosques as bases, who are hiding amongst a brainwashed population that believes in Holocaust 2.0, etc., I have to commend the IDF on their conduct.
  2. Wow, what a surprise. A website that shows in graphic detail the crimes of Hamas centres exclusively on Hamas-perpetrated violence on October 7. Whoda thunk it? Yes, it is a memorial and advocacy platform. Because people forget all too easily what singular event was the precursor to the present conflict. Note that your "analysis" did not dispute that all the images and videos are accurate representations of what happened. And that many are stomach churning. If you want to know why Gaza is in flames now, look no further than October 7. The bottom line is that upwards of 65,000 Gazans would be alive today had Hamas and their Gazan allies not committed the heinous massacre that was October 7. It's really that simple.
  3. ... visit the following website, if you can stomach it. Documented accounts and images of the horrors of October 7, 2023. NOT for the faint of heart. Imagine this was YOUR country, where peaceful people were murdered by their neighbours, neighbours they helped. Neighbours whose children they treated in their clinics. If you are Canadian, imagine 5,000 dead and 1,000 hostages. If you are British, imagine 10,000 of your countryment slaughtered, and 2,000 taken as hostages. If you are American, it rises to over 40,000 butchered, and 8,000 taken as hostages. What would YOU want your government to do? https://www.hamas-massacre.net/
  4. Because shooting people in ditches was how the Einsatzgruppen (sp) executed Jews in eastern Europe in WW2.
  5. If the contest is between the Good Ol' Boys of Texas and the gangbangers of Shytown, my money is on the cowboys. Them lads can shoot! Might not be chasing down too many muggers, but they can guard the sh!t out of federal buildings and ICE officers.
  6. Hell, the Jews even dug up the Jewish bodies from graveyards and took them back to Israel, so that their very presence wouldn't "trigger" the local Gazans. Who then proceeded to loot and destroy the valuable equipment and farms the Israeli settlers left behind.
  7. Ah yes, nothing like "cooling down the rhetoric" and trying to bring people back to gentlemanly disagreement. That particular slur is especially nasty because Miller is Jewish.
  8. Very true. Even my wife (Japanese) notices and it really bugs her. We have a condo in a relatively drug-free area, but any time we go to Pattaya for a meal, she hates the stench. Plus the low class of people that are attracted to the drug trade. As a Japanese she is aghast at the possible impact on children and families.
  9. True. I figure Newsom could win the Nobel for Climate Preservation (if there was such a thing) for ensuring that no high speed rail was built in California for a decade, thus preserving valuable nature. And for chasing away businesses, thus improving the air quality.
  10. Nice deflection, well done! I was waiting for a variation of b-b-but Trump!", and you did not disappoint. Now, back on topic, I love the way this scandal is being framed as a new form of "Republicans pounce..." or "Republicans seize...". Very droll.
  11. Nice try in minimizing the situation. "A bad comment"?!?! He is a politician and the son of two judges. This was no momentary lapse of judgement. These remarks are all carefully written, and never recanted. He is no dummy. Except for letting his true colurs show. Another intolerant leftist who fantasizes about using violence on his political opponents, and their families.
  12. You mean, 1. the illegal immigrant 2. who was stopped while driving by ICE. 3. and chose to attempt to flee the scene in his car 4. and dragged one of the officers with him, using his car as a weapon was shot? FAFO.
  13. I believe 30 people were shot in Chicago last weekend. The vast majority black, the vast majority of shooters also black. Yet somehow that is OK. Behold the soft bigotry of low expectations.
  14. "Do I think that Todd and Jennifer are evil? And that they are breeding little fascists? Yes" Yeah, a joke as old as the hills.... And let's not even get into the scandal that Jay Jones avoided prison time for speeding at 116mph in a 45mph zone... and did his "community service" sentence by working on his own political campaign.
  15. But wait, he's changed completely. He now stands 100% against political violence and hateful langauge and heated rhetoric. He has change a lot since.....2022....... What a maroon. Ne needs to go.
  16. Get the vasectomy. Then agree with her about having a kid. Enjoy reams of rawdog sex. In a while, she may catch on and realize that you are shooting blanks. OR, she may somehow wind up pregnant anyway, which can lead to a whole other entertaining drama. Her: "honey, I have baby soon!!" You: "congrats. Who is the father?" Her: "It you! We make baybee!" You: (hand her vasectomy papers and proof of sterility) Her: "don't mind, you pay!"
  17. As a resident of Japan, here is my two yen worth; 1. Price really isn't much of an issue for Japanese. Quality of experience IS. 2. Thailand is rapidly acquiring a reputation as being a bit grotty, dirty, etc. and this scares away family travellers. 3. Weed is NOT an impetus. It actually is a detriment. 4. There is less business travel, and fewer expats who are transferred by their companies to live in Thailand as well. 5. The various scandals- scam centers, kidnapping, random crime, do make it on the news here and do have an impact.
  18. Flew an Airbus 380 (Aseana Airlines) from Seoul to New York JFK last month. Sat in the upper deck, cost an extra 50 bucks. Well worth it! The window seats get extra storage space by the windo (a deep pocket) and the seat pitch/space seem very wide for economy class. Plus good food etc. I avoid North American carriers like the plague.
  19. Job market crashing? Unemployment is basically the same now as when Trump took office. Nice try though.
  20. Yeah, one of the many many right wing riots in the US the past few years. Just like the other riot, the one in..... uh.... nevermind. Whereas left wing riots are a nightly occurence in many cities- Portland, Chicago, etc.
  21. I think the best thing to do is to free Greta and all her friends, put them back on their boats, and let them sail to Gaza. What could go wrong? Palestine/Gaza currently ranks about 156th in the world in respect for womens' rights, and about 150th in respect for LGTB rights. I am sure that the flotilla family will find a warm and energetic welcome on the beaches of Gaza.
  22. True. California is the 4th biggest economy IN SPITE OF the state government, not because of it. Just look at how successful they have been in getting high speed rail built. Or how fast homes are being rebuilt in the fire zones of Malibu and LA after last January's fires...
  23. The ACA made health care so affordable, that it is necessary to extend government subsidies so that people can pay for it... Time to put a sombrero on it.
  24. You would think that, with the stranglehold the Left has on Hollywood, they would be far better at memes and video clips. I guess they lack the essential element of humour and the ability to connect with regular people. All they can do is generate "clapter" by playing to themselves.
  25. The key difference is that the Trump videos are actually funny. And they resonate with the public. By contrast, all the Democrats can do is to fake outrage at how terrible and racist The Donald is. Which only begets more mocking memes and hilarity. Face it, the left has no sense of humour.
