The holocaust thing was a long time ago. A very very very long time ago. That it keeps being brought up as this singular and massive that echoes forever to now is very autistic. It's a sign that one defensive war, and possibly worse, is hounded on forever like it's some iconic thing. It's so blown out of proportion. There have been worse genocidal acts done before and since.
Don't like Iran and they've done a slot of shit to the us and they're Muslim, but I'd say china is more of a concern than Iran by a good mile.
"All men are ebil dangerous rapists"
the fundamental difference is that with Israel it was once and with Iran it was multiple times again and again. Remember how they trained Shia militias in Iraq to build IEDs to blow up American soldiers? How they kidnapped William Buckley and tortured him to death? You cry about one incident but then praise the people who keep attacking America.
You say drugs are a problem, Hezbollah is one of the biggest drug running organizations in the world. Obama stopped the DEA investigation into Hezbollah to appease Iran during the negotiations leading up to the Iran deal.
i'm not gonna lie, i was only half paying attention when i first read this, and thought this was Liam Hemsworth going full 1488 for a quick second. lol
The US fought WW2 on behalf of Israel? Wow, I had no idea - thanks for opening my eyes, fren.
Cranbrook's demographics may have shifted in recent years. The high school has a significant number of Chinese/Asian students along with dot Indians. I have no idea how many come from local affluent families and how many are boarding students from abroad. The junior highs (separate ones for boys and girls) have some black students in the mix - presumably those from families who dislike the area public school systems. Still, the point remains that Cranbook is for those with money (and plenty of it) and money and politics are heavily entwined.
I think transgendered people were probably more closeted during my high school and college years. Those that did cross dress were shrugged off as oddballs unless they were sex pests or some other sort of nuisance.
I've known gay and lesbian people who used to be associated with LGB support groups or oganizations who have long severed all ties to those groups because they those same groups now cater to the transgendered and other genderspecial groups except the LGB community that originally founded and ran those groups. The LGB community has been effectively excluded from the organizations they themselves created, but they can't speak up about it because of cancel culture and cries of "Hate speech!" if and when they ever do. The rumblings I hear are similar to what @Hey Johnny Bravo posted: Most LGB people can't stand the T but can neither say nor do much about it given the current poitical and social climate.
As long as the Democrats double, triple, quadruple, and even quintuple down on identity politics, they will not change this aspect of their party as it stands now. Look at their efforts to filibuster, stonewall, or otherwise stymie the efforts to pass a national bill banning transgendered people from competing in sports as something other than their gender at birth. As long as this continues to be the Democratic MO, nothing will change any time soon and the party will continue to alienate normie/moderate voters.
An absolute fucking lie.
I think you're being overly optimistic. If last week is any indication they'll triple down out of sheer spite and arrogance in the same way the EU, UK, Canada, Aus & NZ would.
So what you're saying is that the cartels are the more important and pressing issue, since they're the active buyers and distributors of narcotics from ME and China. The cartels that we funded? Gave weapons and free access to? Restricted other countries abilities to counter for? Those cartels, with billion dollar enterprises and are allies of convenience because everyone wants to make some money? They also take poppy from the people that the US ordered to make poppy instead of goddamn wheat.
If all it takes to hide is be in an area where you are a member of the majority demographic then pretty much every crime would be impossible to solve. If Johhny Law wants your ass he will get it, and a high profile shooting will get their attention for sure.
They are majority abroad. A lot of wealthy families in Asia will send their kids to bilingual schools with the goal of going to a university in the west.
I've never seen pol posting so stupid to blame the jews on pearl harbor
If Israel is the people rather than the place, then yes, the US fought WW2 for Israel. I mean are we forgetting about the holocoaster that every Jew loves to remind us about?
demonstrably not true
He was invited to speak at a house committee in September 2002. According to Uzi Dayan, Bush had told the Israelis that he had made the decision to invade in January of 2002. Netanyahu did nothing to change the outcome.
Israel regarded Iran as a bigger threat thanks to its nuclear program and its funding of proxies like Hezbollah/Hamas. Iraq was not a priority for the Israelis.
These Israelis somehow control Bush when it comes to Iraq but when Bush forced Israel to withdraw from Gaza and have Palestinians hold an election because Bush thought that the Palestinians would accept democracy and not elect terrorists, somehow the Israelis didn't control Bush then. Which is it?
Danny Ayalon, Raanan Gissin, and Col. Lawrence Wilkerson are not anonymous officials.
>critical component of israeli policy
the US didn't fight ww2 to liberate the Jews from the holocaust. Germany declared war on the US first. The Allied forces didn't take steps to stop the holocaust when they could have easily done so.
Weren't the death camps in Eastern Europe? What easy steps could they have taken than didn't involve reconquering all of Europe from the Axis?
Its like the Southern Poverty Law Center. Its mission was to combat white supremacy groups and take down the Klan 55 years ago. Now that kind of of racism is dead, its mission accomplished, but the grift has to continue, so they go to bat for trannies and fight cities' police departments in court now.
Later in the war, they could have bombed the death camps and the tracks leading to the death camps. Regardless, the US didn't join WW2 to save the Jews.
