After Hamas murders six more hostages, Biden criticizes Netanyahu for not doing enough. This conveniently ignores the fact that Netanyahu has agreed to every hostage release proposal only to have Hamas reject them. Every aspect of this is upsetting.

Saul, I believe you are a good guy. You remind me of my brother-in- law. He is also a good guy and very bright, but he is also Jewish. As such he is so indoctrinated into voting for Democrats that he cannot see that the policies of the current administration are detrimental not only to the country at large, but to his own best interest.

He, like so many of the college students, do not understand that the religious fanatics cannot be bargained with. They can be financially starved, or short of that, hunted down and destroyed. Under the Trump administration Iran did not have the means to fund Hamas. Without the funding there would have been no "October Raid" and there would be no hostages to have to try and negotiate for. This is the result of the Biden/Harris administration releasing the money that Trump had frozen. Trump would not have "flipped" on this policy. I know you have heard it before. Under the "leadership" of the Democrats (Biden, Obama, Clinton) our allies cannot trust us, and our enemies do not fear us.

The anti-Israel protests going on now on university and college campuses amaze me. Of course 9/11 happened before most of these students were born and they do not under stand who they are supporting. The ones that make me laugh are the so-called Queers for Palestine or Trans for Palestine, these are the victims of the religious fanatics that are thrown off of high buildings or stoned to death in the streets. If they are not stopped there they will be here. Who would they want to destroy here?

I am a Christian and so stand with Jews wherever they are. I do not vote for those with failed policies regarding the US or Israel.

Cheers mate,

Doug

Canadian and Irish. So what kind of drink concoction does that make?

Canadian Club & Jameson's. A stout combination.

I listened to a podcast about South Africa’s attempt to bring genocide charges against Israel contrasted with their failure to condemn Russia’s war on Ukraine, which highlights South Africa’s desire to demonstrate its opposition to Western power and values.

I find this to be a rather alarming indictment of the South African government, and I might go so far as to say the South African population at large. Personally, I have no interest in hunting South Africa.

Sounds like a waste of Jamison's to me.

But you're still voting for Kamalalala.

Check out this new YouTube video of Biden, I can't get it to post here but maybe someone else can.
On YouTube you can see the video if you google: "Joe Biden is an absolute TRAIN WRECK and MUMBLING MESS in his first speech back since long vacation." posted by Sivaady, it's only 2:28 minutes long but funny as hell.

Maple syrup and whiskey, nectar of the gods! That’s what Canadian and Irish make.

Is my ear detecting a fake, manufactured accent in Carmela’s speech?

Just saw/heard that on the news. During her campaign speech in Michigan wasn't it?

She must have switched from wine to vodka

I don't know but I'm part Irish as well and have always been told that whiskey was invented to keep the Irish from taking over the World. Seems to have worked so far

Well done map to ponder for those who have either convinced themselves or have been convinced by Russian propaganda (or Tucker Carlson) that Russia is winning the war in Ukraine. The map on the left is the state of conflict in November 2022 (nine months after the invasion). The lavender areas are those held by Russia prior to the current conflict. The green areas are those from which Russian forces had been evicted by November. The red areas are those seized by the Russians in '22 and still held. The blue area is the part of Kherson then newly liberated from Russian control.

The map on the right is as of September 3, 2024. In spite of periodic claims of Russian advances, the Russian military has accomplished almost nothing in those 22 months at the cost of roughly half a million casualties between just those dates.

I would say that Trump is displaying signs of cognitive decline

What signs specifically? C'mon man... LOL...

 

[ActionBob]

I would say that Trump is displaying signs of cognitive decline, though nowhere near as extreme as Biden, and I think it could be argued in good faith that his degree of cognitive decline has not yet reached the level where it would be disqualifying on the ground of fitness.

By the way, that is a magnificent Zebra!

I'm no expert, but it seems to me Trump may occasionally display some signs of stress. To call it cognitive decline seems like a stretch. And to even compare to Biden would be ridiculous.

But come on! He has been under non stop attacks for more than 8 years. So many conspiracies launched against him that I can't keep track. A constant barrage of lawfar thrown at him. Democrats in power illegally utilizing seemingly unlimited government resources to campaign against him in addition to the lawfare. Those in power and those with influence outside of being elected (Hillary) constantly lying about their own crooked dealings and falsely accusing Trump of misdeeds they have actually committed! Using tactics right out of the Nazi playbook. (Tell huge lies and hold to them) Then accusing Trump and his supporters of being Nazis!!!

I absolutely cannot fathom how it is possible for any Jewish person to support much less vote for these Democrats.

And Trump was just shot! Under the watch of the Democrats run protection services.

I think he's entitled to show signs of stress.

Hah!! I just saw that at least one media outlet has also recognized the faked accents used by Camela. Guess I’m not going crazy after all

Of course BHO was the master of accent manufacturing designed for whichever audience being targeted at the time. I’m convinced Camela has practiced with videos of BHO’s speaking mannerisms. No doubt Hakeem Jeffries is trying to clone the technique. Hi Larry’s attempt at accent fakery was laughable… using something like… “We ain’t no ways tarred”. …

Saul, I so feel for you, to endure such pain and have this moron Biden sprout his nonsense. He is truly a despicable human.

I did feel sympathy, but it's like a battered spouse that keeps going back for more. "But THIS time he'll really change..."

I would agree with a lot of this other than the South African population at large statement. The average South African has much more to worry about than what’s happening in Ukraine, Gaza or anywhere outside of their immediate neighborhood or town. Of course there are exceptions to this.
