Not to mention the settlement amount is laughable. The average wrongful death settlement in the US is in the $1,000,000 range. So the jury is saying that the bruised ego of a scatterbrained woman is worth 83 lives. This will not survive appeal.

To be pedantic, he did not get convicted. This was not a criminal case. If this case ever went across a DA's desk, it would be laughed out of the office. A victim from decades past, can't remember even the month or year the alleged crime happened, no physical evidence, no witnesses....get real. A defendant who cannot mount a credible defense for the same reasons? Would never see a courtroom. Also, the Bad Orange Man never said that he DID grab women by the baby cat. He merely said that rich and powerful men can get away with stuff like that, and that women let them do it. Which is true. Power is an aphrodesiac.

Cool. So the 100,000 Jews who were expelled from Egypt, and their descendants, would be free to return to Egypt and get their homes back, right? Along with the 120,000 from Iraq, the 250,000 from Morocco, 100,000 each from Algeria and TUnisia, etc. For the original owners to be alive, assuming they were 20 when they left in 1948, they would be 95 years old. Not many 95 year olds in Gaza I imagine.

So, the great grandchildren of refugees can return to the country of their great grandparents' birth, and claim the property that their great grandparents left behind. Am I reading this correctly? And would this apply to ALL refugees, or only Palestinians? The problem is that groups like UNRWA do not actually help Palestinian people. They try to help the Palestinian cause, but not helping the people actually resettle. If the interests of the Palestinian people were truly at the top of their agenda, they could advocate for many things. For example, that Palestinians born in countries like Lebanon and Jordan and Egypt be given citizenship and all the rights applicable. Rich Arab countries could grant visas to guest workers from Palestine and give them a chance to be successful. Do these things and the Palestinian people would be MUCH better off.

Back on topic, any answer to my questions about the "right to return" and who it applies to and where they can return to? This would make UNRWA irrelevant.

No,but I do remember seeing a kidnapped teen girl being bundled onto a truck, then abducted to Gaza. Dark red stains visible around the crotch of her clothing, a look of utter terror on her face.

Would love to know the legitimate reasons that Jews were expelled from Muslim countries. Also, I notice you never answered about specifically what homes the Palestinians should be allowed to return to, and who has that right. Your apology for the terrorists is indeed foul. Evidence of sexual violence abound, the media has been shown repeated videos shot by the terrorists themselves. From one eye witness; "Some women were raped before they were dead, some raped while injured, and some were already dead when the terrorists raped their lifeless bodies," his statement says. "I desperately wanted to help, but there was nothing I could do." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67629181

Thank you for admitting that the PA brainwashes children in their territory. The willing consent of UNRWA staff is part of the problem too. When you say that Palestinians should be able to return to their homes, what do you mean exactly? Which homes? And who exactly gets to return- the original refugees, their descendants (if so, how many generations)? And what if the homes no longer exist, or the land is occupied by OTHER refugees, like the ones kicked out of Muslim countries? It is a sticky and pointless discussion. And the Palestinians DO have a country- it is called Jordan. The UN partition in 1948 was never agreed upon and instead the Arabs attacked. Got their butts whipped for what would be the first of many times and the seeds of today's strife were born. Thank you for admitting that the PA brainwashes children in their territory. The willing consent of UNRWA staff is part of the problem too. "Resisting occupation" does not include invading the sovereign territory of a nation, and committing acts of sexual violence on teenage girls. Which, getting back to the topic, UNRWA staff were part of.

UNRWA should not even exist in the first place. The UN already has an agency to deal with refugees, the UNHCR. There is no reason for a separate body just to serve one community. Especially for 75 years. Other refugee crises have come and gone, yet for some reason this one lingers. When India and Pakistan separated, some 15 million refugees were created. Yet they did not get a special organization, and all settled in their new home territories. Not to mention that the perfidious influence of UNRWA spreads beyond those who directly should be on trial for terrorism. They control education, medical care etc in Gaza. They are responsible for brainwashing generations of Palestinian children to hate Jews and dream of revenge. They allow terrorists to use their resources, they hide terrorists and their weapons in their buildings. They are evil and need to go.

Not worth watching. The two most interesting teams both lost. So now it will be all about Taylor Swift.

Did a few VERY long haul (Hong Kong to Toronto nonstop) trips in the past 6-8 years on Cathay Pacific. Good service, lots of attention and drink flowing smoothly, easy on the eyes flight crew as a bonus. Flew Scare Canada once from Tokyo to Calgary. Once. Wide hipped battleaxes slinging hash at the cattle, window shades down please! as soon as meal service was done (the better to keep the sheeple asleep and not demanding service), lots of noise and gossip from the galley that precluded getting any rest. Never again.

This has been an open secret for years. UNRWA supplied teachers and curricula have been used to brainwash the children of Gaza for more than a decade. They have aided and abetted terrorist activity, turned a blind eye to Hamas' murderous ways, and make a mockery of the claim that they are neutral. Not to mention is it ridiculous that one tiny group gets an entire UN organization for their exclusive benefit. Meanwhile, every other refugee group is bundled together under an umbrella organization. No reason for this other than anti-semitism. The separation of India and Pakistan produced 15 MILLION refugees at the same time as the creation of Israel. Yet they are all resettled and the situation is done. Yet 75 years later, the Palestinians are still being kept in limbo by their supposed brothers in religion.

Yeah, nothing says "protest for sustainable food" better than wasting sustainable food. Where do these jackholes come from? Not to mention the idiotic idea that food is a human right.

Maybe they can make Kamala the "abortion czar". That would virtually guarantee a GOP victory in November, based on her past performance at her assigned tasks.

Not at all. The Palestinians are not a racial group. They are a created political entity. And everything I wrote is true. Otherwise, we wouldn't be in the mess we are in.

The number I heard was 13,000 people employed by UNRWA in Gaza. Decades and decades of money, yet no infrastructure. No decend education. Just resentment and violence.

Thanks for that illuminating message.

True this. The Palestinians seem like very poor guests anywhere they go. Not surprising that the countries around them in the Middle East, even though they have lots of territory, refuse to help them. Better to use them as proxies to attack Israel. Now we have "refugee camps" that are 75 years old. They resemble apartment blocks, complete with shops, cafes, etc. Time to stop using the title "refugee" when we are on the 4th generation IMHO.

It also begs the question as to why American military personnel are in Jordan in the first place. They can take care of themselves.

Thank you for not addressing any of my points. That in itself is a telling answer. Love to hear specifically her qualifications.

No need to be personal my friend. People are entitled to opinions without having superior accomplishments- otherwise the tv would be utterly berefit of any news or commentary. Ironically, you yourself would have to walk small when criticizing a man who accomplished even MORE than the good Ms. Harris- yet somehow it doesn't stop you from bloviating constantly about the former President, does it? And you are right, she has fallen upwards by kissing the right butts (or other parts) until at last she has risen to a position that she is completely obviously unable to perform. Seriously, you want HER running the country possibly? She hasn't worked a day in her life in the private sector, hasn't run so much as a lemonade stand in her entire life.

I wouldn't call asking NATO members to fulfil their military commitments and budget promises "stabbing them in the guts". Why do you? Maybe you need to clean your Orange coloured glasses my friend. And you did not even attempt to answer why Europe cannot deal with Russia on their own. Should be easy, given the disparity in resources.

You are not far wrong, my friend. Especially once you get into the ranks of Democratic party politics in California. Not to mention being picked for VP in spite of not even making it to ONE primary contest, and polling somewhere around 1% in your home state. Having James Clyburn as a mentor only mirrored the help she got from WIllie Brown at the state level.

How exactly would electing Trump end democracy and replace it with a dictatorship. Walk me through the steps to get there.

You do if you are a non-white woman in liberal Californistan. You fall upwards to govt job after govt job. You make friends and they 'support' you as you work your way through the system. Witness Kamala's 'relationship' with Willie Brown. She is a terrible public speaker, shallow and vacuous, treats her staff like dirt, and perhaps the only politician in America with a lower approval rating than Joe Biden.
