I suppose you believe polls too. It's rather a long time till November- plenty of time to do a lot of stuff, like raising money.

I have to assume that you added the part about voting for Biden, as no self respecting Republican would actually want Biden in charge as he is IMO everything they must hate. If you didn't I'd have to assume it's made up fake news. PS I'm not surprised to see Bolton on the list as he was ( is ) an idiot, IMO.

Excellent idea. Can you give me his e mail address and I'll get right on it. We need more contributions like that on the forum. keep 'em comin'.

If the French back down on this it'll only get worse. They need to enforce it even if they have to expel every student of any religion that refuses to abide by school rules.

Link, or that's not true.

Prove it.

We've been told for months that Hamas has hundreds of miles of tunnels, connecting all of Gaza, yet now we are supposed to believe that they won't use the tunnels to escape Rafah. Someone is taking the michael, and it ain't Hamas. Israeli propaganda needs to get better than that if they are going to be taken seriously. 555555555555

Excellent post.

We already know it's not fair. Why else are there huge demonstrations in support of the Palestinians? Israel has already lost the support of most ordinary people. Only their "leaders" support israel's genocide. I look forward to the elections, when the colluders in genocide get the boot. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/3/26/un-expert-accuses-israel-of-several-acts-of-genocide-in-gaza UN expert accuses Israel of ‘genocide’ in Gaza

LOL. Do you actually think such a thing is possible? Israel has the most powerful military in the region, and the US would step in if Iran tried to invade. IMO the idea that israelis could be "driven into the sea and slaughtered" is ludicrous and just bad propaganda trying to justify an impossible to justify slaughter of Gazans.

I'm with you on that. I've basically given up on Al Jazeera as it is just more Palestinian death and destruction every day, and it just sickens me that the leaders of the so called free world do nothing to stop it. South Africa and a few other western aligned countries have spoken up, but what can they do against the US and the colluder in chief, Biden? All I can do is hope that America runs out of bombs to send before they are all dead.

It's not and never will be a "war". It's just slaughter, IMO.

That's likely because people that are not israeli apologists realise it was caused by decades of israeli oppression and land theft. Despite their wishes, October 7 was not the start of this conflict.

It's good to see a sensible post. Just be prepared for the attacks for not supporting israel.

Yes, that would be stupid, but he may decide that NATO doesn't want WW3 over a few planes and do it anyway.

Great. Bring it on. While you and I agree on many things, Trump is where we part ways. I just can't stand the idea that Harris may be POTUS by this time next year, and it looks like Trump is going to be the only candidate for the GOP, so it'll be on him to stop her. ( obviously I don't have much faith that Biden will last much longer than the ceremony if he wins ).

Hmmmmm, wonder who is going to be maintaining them. Norway can donate all the F16s it wants if they can't be fixed, and it probably takes longer to train the guys that keep them flying than it does to cross train pilots to fly them. I wonder if they'll try and sneak some Norwegian mechanics in. Plus, they require lots of spares, so is Norway donating them as well? Can't fly if a part is broken. Computer systems? I have no doubt F16s have lots of computerisation, so do they have the specialists for them, also such as communications, weapons, protection systems. Are the runways fit for purpose? It's never as simple as just handing over the keys and waving the planes goodbye. BTW, all Russia has to do is send a missile or 50 to damage the runways before they land. Can't land one if there are a few potholes. It's not like they can build dozens of runways and they can't be disguised under a couple of cammo nets. I could be wrong, but IMO this may turn out to be Leopard tanks version 2. Never mind, just keep taking the pills and it'll all be over soon enough.

I can only assume you are baiting me and so I will not continue this silly exchange. Bye.

This isn't a war, which is between two sides capable of attacking and defending themselves. This is just a slaughter of a captive population that is trapped and helpless.

Fight to the death implies all the enemy have died. A winner is normally decided when one side surrenders or negotiates, but Hamas is unlikely to surrender. Paradise awaits the martyrs and all that. So, if Hamas does not surrender or negotiate, and it's likely they will not, at what point will israel "win"? It's highly unlikely all would be killed, as they have about a million probably willing to join them.

You said "fight to the death". That has never to my knowledge happened. An example of that is what I want you to provide.

If either Biden or Trump win in November, I doubt either will try to force israel to remove itself from the West Bank. Perhaps in the future, a couple of generations on, there will be a POTUS that is not afraid of the Jewish establishment in the USA and will end illegal israeli settlements, but not in my lifetime I fear.

Israel is busily creating at least 2 million people that want revenge on israel. The wind has been well and truly sown and the whirlwind is coming for israelis. IMO israelis will never know peace for generations to come. Welcome to the forever war. Perhaps in the future, a new generation of israelis will ask their parents why they have to become soldiers, when it was possible once upon a time to live in peace. I wonder what their parents will say- will they think it was worth it to massacre Palestinians in Gaza?

UN forces between israel and Lebanon have not stopped that conflict. I think their role is to ask the sides to stop fighting and be nice, and when that doesn't work they go and have a cup of tea.

I know of no such situation, ever. Can you provide an example of that?
