  1. You do understand that Putin is the war mongerer here, or is that fact above your pay grade?
  2. Just out of curiosity, what is the war mongering that Biden is supposed to be engaged in?
  3. Fascinating stuff. Do you remember Shae Moss and Ruby Freeman? Two election workers in Georgia, harassed, threatened and chased out of their home by Trump supporters. What did the Garland DOJ do about that? (You must remember that videos and names were available of all of that) Absolutely nothing. They were left on their own to file a civil suit. Talk is cheap.
  4. Garland has had four years to put the coup plotters before a judge and had miserably failed. Caveat: miserably in the eyes of a non-American. Maybe Garland is a wonderful competent guy in the eyes of Americans. The right pitch? Again, I'm not American, I go for actual results, not for talk, and talk, and more talk.
  5. Four years and nothing to show for with regard to strengthening democracy. Just talk, talk, and more talk. Even the rule of law, essential for a functioning democracy, has efficiently been run into the ditch by Biden's choice for AG.
  6. Follow your conscience, instead of being bullied into a choice. But fortunately I don't have to make that choice. I can only have an opinion.
  7. But that's my point. Biden is portrayed as empathetic, but he's anything but. He could have used America's leverage on Israel, but he won't, whatever war crimes are committed. He's an opportunist without principles, and that should be enough to loose him millions of votes. It's all very disgusting, and whether you like it or not, this Biden's legacy. I'll look up a link that describes his weird affinity for Israel (and it's ethnic cleansing), in defiance of and undermining Obama. Here it is: https://jewishcurrents.org/joe-bidens-alarming-record-on-israel
  8. He doesn't have to do anything, except working hard to save American democracy. And he's not doing that.
  9. It has a certain charm that various nutcases announce themselves as running for the presidency, and amass a lot of money for campaigning. Nutcases like Jill Stein, who happily dined with Putin and Michael Flynn. And now Hulk Hogan feels it's the right moment to get his 15 minutes.
  10. Imo it's the Democratic party establishment. First huge mistake was to choose Hillary Clinton as candidate, hugely unpopular. In his eight years Obama should have pushed towards a much younger successor, instead of someone from a dynasty. And then Biden. The mind boggles.
  11. Maybe the problem was that RFK jr is very hard to understand, with whatever he's saying?
  12. I thought Biden is supposedly to be admired because of his empathy? Where is his empathy with the tens of thousands of Palestinian children killed and maimed for life with the help of the American bombs that Biden supplied for free? Even the pathetic word 'concern' doesn't come out of the mouth of this guy anymore.
  13. The other guy is an incompetent, ignorant and corrupt fascist and racist, who will surround himself this time with enough competent fascists and christo nationalists, to put an end to the famed American democracy once and for all. With a minority of American voters, but that's how it works in America, minority rule.
  14. Ronny Johnson is an acquaintance of Trump that he met recently, so he knows he's alive?
  15. It's a good thing that, in a recent campaign rally, Trump mentioned his cognitive abilities again, and his White House doctor, Dr Ronny Johnson. Who is Ronny Johnson you might ask? Well, he meant Ronny Jackson, the White House doctor. So much for Trump's cognitive abilities. Btw I hope that in the debate,Trump doesn't go on and on about sharks and batteries, and how many times he has to flush the toilet.
  16. And the (corrupt) Supreme Court accumulating power all the time, while in their arrogance placing themselves above any scrutiny. What a weird system of government.
  17. There's always a lot of talk about Thailand, where a human life doesn't count for much, but America is not different.
  18. I've answered the part that I could make sense of. Blame it on me, that's your prerogative. You didn't answer any of my questions. That's your prerogative too.
  19. I can't make a lot of sense of your response. Are some demands unworkable? Maybe in the eyes of Blinken. It's a negotiation. Blinken is just blabbing to put public pressure on Hamas while, as always, shielding Israel from criticism.
  20. Have you read the CNN article completely? Do you disagree with the demands of Hamas? Do you think Netanyahu has or will agree (hus rabid extreme right coalition buddies certainly won't) to a permanent ceasefire and full withdrawal of the IDF from Gaza?
  21. Afaik the only protests in Israel are against the government policies re. the hostages. And those protests are regularly suppressed. There are no protests against Israel's war crimes, and I consider that as tacit agreement.
  22. How many Israelis agree with the war crimes and atrocities committed against Palestinians?
  23. And Netanyahu is clear about his goals. I suppose in your opinion, the Palestinians have to take it lying down? https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/netanyahu-brandishes-map-of-israel-that-includes-west-bank-and-gaza-at-un-speech/
  24. You completely miss my point. How would you define 'their own country'? Of Jews I assume. Jews from all over the world, with different nationalities and for different reasons, emigrate from their own country to Israel. Tens of thousands each year. What is their own country? They definitely have a new country, and as far as I'm concerned within the 67 borders. You have to draw a line somewhere. But that's of course not how it works. With increasing population, Israel needs land. Legal.ir illegal.
  25. How would you define 'their own country'? Thousands and thousands of Jews have emigrated from their own country to Israel, because they could. For instance one of the recently rescued hostages has a dual Russian and Israeli nationality, and had arrived in Israel (reportedly) a year and a half ago.
