Big talk for someone who also isn’t about to throw their life away to take potshots at the local police station.

Government agitators: “God why are leftists such little babies! Oh you’re not a little baby? You don’t need a nappy? Well prove it! Commit a violent crime at a peaceful protest RIGHT NOW! Yeah, right into that camera. Great. That’s perfect. Thank you.”

Can we replace him with an actual Italian American instead?

Everyone still likes Frank Sinatra, right?

Oh yeah how could I forget that after conspiring to help the Nazis exterminate the poles, the Russians turned around and conscripted millions of men from the countries they conquered (Poland, Ukraine, etc) and used them to fight off the Nazis that they allowed to invade in the first place! So heroic! So selfless!

As a Belarusian Jew, I can’t wait to hear your revisionist version of my history!

My history book says Hitler (Nazism) and Stalin (Marxism-Leninism) invaded Poland together, which is widely considered to be what began the second world war.

What part of that statement do you take issue with?

ML = Marxism-Leninism

An ideology developed by Joseph Stalin to justify Russian Imperial ambition.

AKA, the people who aided the Nazis in their invasion of Poland.

The MLs allied with the original Nazis too.

For the record, I think Bibi and most of his government belong in prison. Bibi is a fascist - but so are most Palestinians, for lack of a better word. I think Israel (as well as America, Europe and the Arab states) should pay reparations to all Palestinians who can demonstrate that they personally have been permanently displaced from land that Israelis have settled on, because it IS a humanitarian crisis - partly of their own creation.

But I’m also realistic about arab/islamic nationalism, and how those states treat their ethnic and religious minorities. I support Kurdish independence for the same reason. I support the Christians in Lebanon - I went to school with some in the early 2000’s who were forced from their homes by the same “freedom fighters” who make common cause with Hamas today. Being a non-arab, non-muslim in the Muslim/Arab world is a mortal danger.

There is no scenario where Israel doesn’t exist, and Jewish people in the middle east aren’t subjected to exactly the kind of genocide that you’re accusing Israelis of perpetrating and has been perpetrating against Jews and Christians in living memory, to say nothing of the last thousand years. Some might even call these accusations projection.

If that makes me literally Hitler, then we really don’t have anything to discuss. My side keeps winning. Total Israeli capitulation isn’t ever going to happen. Israel is here to stay. When certain parties finally accept that reality, maybe we can start making moves towards a lasting peace, but that peace will never include simply throwing open the gates and letting the barbarians sack Israel as they did in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Nigeria, Yemen, Sudan and elsewhere.

Everyone in this thread: I want Israel shattered, and it’s people cast into the sea!

Half the Jews on earth: OK, well we’re not going to let that happen to us without a fight. In fact, since you all keep trying, we’re going to take proactive steps to make that goal basically impossible.

Everyone in this thread: why do you love genocide so much?

Statements like this only further justify the Israeli security apparatus.

Ronald Reagan? The actor?

Technology implies belligerence.

Technology is a war we wage against nature; technology is a means of asserting ourselves and usurping nature’s rule, which is necessarily a violent act.

He won the popular vote. Step foot outside an urban area and you’ll see that his popular support isn’t just an illusion.

There’s a floor of around 38% of Americans who are going to hold that line to the death. They’ve lost friends, family, and businesses over their stance already and haven’t budged. This has been going on for ten years now. They’re in it til the end.

I have no idea why. But I’m sure trump’s DOJ will be releasing new guidelines shortly that back up what their boss is saying, sans any provable evidence.

Sometimes you gotta get creative.

It’s his hand. You can find other angles of it in the same article. It seems to me that the ms-13 edited onto his digits is meant to be a translation of the symbology of his tattoos:

Marijuana leaf = M

Smiley face = S

Cross = 1

Skull = 3

Is that an accurate representation of what his tattoos mean? I have no idea, I’m not an expert on gang symbology. Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. The presence of a gang tattoo is something that could be submitted as evidence in court - which is a right the accused was never afforded.

What I am sure of, is that trump intentionally presented this information in such a vague manner so as to muddy the waters so he can come back later and claim his claims were misrepresented by the “lying, dishonest media” - which is itself dishonest.

It’s an inkblot test. His detractors will take the claim at face value, and his supporters will dig in and claim we’re stupid for not immediately taking his claims as gospel. He doesn’t care if his claims hold up in court. He only cares about the court of public opinion, and right now, he’s defining that conversation.

Did writing that make you feel better?

By giving kids measles? You’ve lost your mind.

America bad. Always. 😡

Same, but there’s no way in hell this type of psycho gave it all away. He stashed a couple million somewhere for a rainy day. That’s how these people work.
