Its a pretty sad state of affairs for the US to allow Netanyahu a

genocidal murderer to speak before a standing ovation congress.

This asshole is a cold blooded killer.

beyond that, he's right in line with Hitler. and those 99% of Israelis who think it's the right thing to do. Just like those Germans who fell in line then and are now in line supporting fascist Israel.

This total support and enabling of whatтАЩs being done to the Palestinians has destroyed our moral credibility and global leadership ability and greatly strengthened the Russia, China led BRICS.

Breaking Points with Krystal & Saagar which also reports about how most Israelis support what is being done in Gaza. Truly awful.

I started studying this Oct 8. Hamas is NOT the bad guy. Israel is beyond words bad. Frankly, I think Israel and it's supporters want tffg as President. Much more malleable for their interests..(as if Biden as not been a pushover) Didn't tffg say in that "debate", "Israel should just finish the job"?

NO, really? I've known that since early on, like oct 10. The history of Palestine being given to Jews ( in lieu of inviting them in)...and, then how the Jews dealt with the indigenous population. There had been Jews living peacefully along side Muslims and Christians for centuries in the Arab world.

After 1948, things changed drastically. Palestinians were forced and murdered out of their towns and villages by these determined war like Zionists. Jews in Arab countries found living among Muslims uncomfortable due to information seeping out about how muslim Palestinians were being maltreated. Many went to Israel and found that they were 2nd class to the European Jews. Israel is a VERY racist country....anything is justified to get rid of that filthy population on "their" land.

Why did IsraelтАЩs government ignore warnings from Egypt, our CIA and even their own female soldiers left alone on the Gaza border who said there were warnings from Palestinians in Gaza that Hamas was planning a major attack? Where were most of the soldiers? TheyтАЩd been redeployed to the West Bank to help settlers steal Palestinian land. And why did it take them 6 hours to make it back to the southern border which meant that those female soldiers had already been killed or captured along with many civilians? ItтАЩs amazing that so many people say and believe that there was a тАЬcease fireтАЭ before Oct 7 which Hamas violated which means Hamas is responsible for the destruction of Gaza. Truly bizarre.

I follow John Mearsheimer and Glenn Greenwald for information on Ukraine and Gaza. Both are appalled by the media lies. Both say Ukraine has been destroyed in our proxy war against Russia. Both say Gaza is genocide/ethnic cleansing and that Israel has made itself a global pariah by doing this. Both are obviously right. Our msm is a corrupt farce that has no interest in truth and only mostly just promotes the lies of our ruling class.

Not YouTube in general but specific sites like Mearsheimer, Greenwald, Kim Iversen, Lena Petrova, Real Clear Politics and many others. The democrats have the quantity with their msm but we have the quality with sites like these.

I'd read the blogs or .com's of those but I already do too many hours on my Mac...

I have a TV (first one in 12 years) and it has youtube. I'm paying the Mexico price of $9 a month to rid it of commercials. No cable, no live anything; I get msnbc after it airs. A LOT of youtube. A proxy for PBS and those streaming only accessible in the USA. ..........

Mearsheimer is terrific! He does a lot of talks in Australia ... It's amazing how much they are tuned into US politics...like we're the greatest show in town.

I said for years that one HAS to pay attention to trump; he's the greatest show in town...(a horror show)...but now, I am hoping that Kamala will continue to be the better show in town.

But we ARE the greatest show on earth! Too bad we can't charge for tickets.

Just sent an email to vice.president@whitehouse.gov to encourage the Honorable Vice President Harris to read Matt's article on the Hoffman 'donation' and subsequent 'demand' to fire Lina Khan. I let her know it's important not to be seen as bending to the bullying tactics of corporate tyrants, and that I'm looking forward to her creating her own legacy in the White House. TRUMP MUST NOT WIN if we really believe in the Constitution and the American Experiment.

IтАЩve seen his talks from Australia. I think he even had one from India. We certainly do have a global civilization now. No denying that. I liked Vivek better than Trump in the primary. Super smart and a great debater. No denying though that Trump has so easily dealt with the years of the intense hate campaign waged against him. Not many people could have done that. Plus now he can also point to his тАЬclipped-by-a-bulletтАЭ ear as proof that God is on his side. How many people can say that and point to their ear as proof? Maybe he should get that ear tattooed with red ink so people will always notice it and be reminded of this.
