  1. Since when is characterizing something with roots as complicated as this war like this: The war was caused by Hamas . Hamas are responsible for the war not simpleminded?
  2. Maybe it's time for you to consider the subject of this thread as it is written in the Wall St Journal Article: Hamas Is Effectively Back in Control in Gaza Or maybe you can share with us Israel's plan to extricate itself from Gaza. It has repeatedly tried to enlist others to relieve it of the burden. So far, no takers.
  3. The winning certainly is huge. For Trump and Melanaiawho launched meme crypto currency. It's a good thing that Trump is in no position to change the rules on crypto in a way that would favor $TRUMP and $MELANIA....oh wait a minute.
  4. Because they are skilled in construction work and are physically fit another to work in a very physically demanding job.
  5. Thanks for the irrelevant comment. You had previously pointed out that Hamas emerged weaker from the war. I pointed out that the same could be said for the Israeli military. The damage suffered by Gazan civilians was not relevant. Unless, of course, you believe that they are complicit with Hamas. Which your gaffe clearly shows that you do.
  6. Where did I write that Hamas was "the U.S. designated terrorist group"?
  7. Since no one was named, I don't feel obliged to delve into the archives.
  8. Actually, in a way you could be right. If Trump goes after the many undocumented aliens who work in the home construction business, they will be taking off. And fewer house built means home price rises will take off too. T minus x number of days and counting..
  9. You have compared the damage suffered by the Israelis, not to the damage suffered by Hamas, but to all those Gazans who lost their homes.
  10. Congratulations! You are on a gaffe making roll. Once again you conflate with Hamas all those Gazan children, women and men, people who have lost their homes. Once again you have revealed your bigotry. Keep up the bad work!
  11. Promises, promises. Remember this? Trump touts job creation at Foxconn groundbreaking in Wisconsin https://www.nbcnews.com/video/trump-touts-job-creation-at-foxconn-groundbreaking-in-wisconsin-1266276931894 As for now.. What's happening at the Foxconn site in Wisconsin five years after the company announced its plans https://www.jsonline.com/story/money/business/2023/03/23/what-we-know-about-foxconn-in-wisconsin-and-how-we-got-there/70037738007/ And remember this? China bought none of the extra $200 billion of US exports in Trump's trade deal https://www.piie.com/blogs/realtime-economics/2022/china-bought-none-extra-200-billion-us-exports-trumps-trade-deal
  12. Yes, the police have been recruited into the army of wokeness. So sad!
  13. I've got some exciting news for you: The USA already is a net exporter for energy. And some even more exciting news Oil company executives aren't exactly gung ho about producing more oil. Because they understand that sometimes more is less: Oil Companies, Investors Talk Down Trump’s ‘Drill, Baby, Drill’ as Prices Stay Low, Exploration Budgets Shrink https://www.theenergymix.com/oil-companies-investors-talk-down-trumps-drill-baby-drill-as-prices-stay-low-exploration-budgets-shrink/
  14. What exactly is the nature of the emergency in the USA, given that the economy is strong including low unemployment? A record percentage of Americans covered by health insurance? Border crossings have declined very sharply. Inflation is still a bit higher than optimal. Is part of the emergency high grocery prices? The price rise that Trump unequivocally pledged to reverse during his campaign? As for allies smiling, what do you think these dudes were up to. And they facing a real emergency. https://photos.com/featured/churchill-roosevelt-and-stalin-bettmann.html
  15. According to Trump, it's not merely a problem. It's an EMERGENCY! Why is it an emergency, why is it even a problem when the United States is a net producer of oil and gas?
  16. The news is very positive? DECLARING A NATIONAL ENERGY EMERGENCY https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/declaring-a-national-energy-emergency/ Given that the US is producing record amounts of oil and gas, it seems like a downer to be declaring an emergency. Unless everybody knows it's imaginary.
  17. Does this guy look upbeat? Donald Trump's and JD Vance's official portraits released https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/480/cpsprodpb/a088/live/ba4bed20-d4b2-11ef-9fd6-0be88a764111.jpg.webp https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cly443wxl78
  18. I can think of at least one exception: Donald Trump:
  19. From the Hunting of the Snark. "Just the place for a Snark! I have said it twice: That alone should encourage the crew. Just the place for a Snark! I have said it thrice: What I tell you three times is true." Most of us would recognize that that this is also a piece of nonsense. At least, unlike your nonsense, it's inspired nonsense.
  20. No one said he was. But he is under indictment. And if he ventures into most countries in Western Europe, according to law, he should be remanded into the custody of the ICC. I'm sure you wouldn't support any signatory to the treaty authorizing the ICC refusing to remand Netanyahu and others into the ICC's custody.
  21. President Trump's near-total pardon of Jan. 6 rioters was denounced by the Fraternal Order of Police, the largest police union in the U.S., and the International Association of Chiefs of Police on Tuesday. The big picture: The groups said they're deeply discouraged by pardons and commutations made by both the Biden and Trump administrations of individuals convicted of killing or assaulting law enforcement officers. Driving the news: The groups said in a statement they firmly believe those convicted of such crimes should serve full sentences. https://www.axios.com/2025/01/22/police-union-trump-jan-6-pardons
  22. You know I had my doubts but since you say so....it is to laugh.
  23. Wow! Aseannow.com is rife with mind readers. First, according to you, I seem to be really pleased etc. Then you quote me as opining that I called Hamas a "US designated terrorist group." I guess that's more mind-reading Or maybe you just don't undestand what " " signifies about what comes between them.
  24. So, Netanyahu and others are no longer under indictment for committing war crimes?
