draneceusrex,

Nice, but this is still my favorite.

draneceusrex,

I feel dumb. What are the gears around the Avengers logo from?

draneceusrex,

Sorry, I love Reloaded. The only thing that really hurts it is the Smiths fight scene. The Zion dance scene admittedly may be a bit too long. The rest of the movie, especially the dinner->freeway scene rocks.

draneceusrex,

Add to that we have about $1 Billion surplus currently here in NC with so many things that money could help with, not the least in our schools that are at crisis staffing levels…I am sure they will go to vouchers and charter schools instead…

draneceusrex,

No no, she wants to wear the dress.

draneceusrex,

Let me get this out of the way. The ICC should have the full opportunity to try and convict Netanyahu. The genocide being committed in Gaza is horrific. The fact that he funneled money to Hamas also makes him complicit in their attack on October 7th.

Hamas has preyed on the plight of the Palestinian people for the past 30+ years, and if the power dynamic was reversed between Isreal and Hamas, the state would have been all but fully cleansed of Jewish people shortly after the conflict began. We may even be living in a world where Palestine and Isreal are two separate states if Arafat wasn’t afraid of hardliners like Hamas killing him and could have accepted the Camp David agreement. The distruction of Isreal is their ultimate goal. Hamas is the reason Egypt keeps their border closed to the Palestinian refugees, as they are considered a threat to the stability of Egyptian society and government, proving so multiple times in the past. Hamas using civilians, hospitals, schools, and so on as sheilds is by design, not logistics. They care nothing for the innocent deaths they cause of their own people. The ruling power of Hamas is not even in Gaza, being in Qatar, ruthlessly manipulating the Palestinian people in their quest to destroy Israel without any threat to themselves. There will be no possible two-state solution while Hamas remains in power.

I don’t know what the solution is for Isreal and Palestine. My heart hurts for the innocents in Gaza, but their situation is being caused by Hamas as much as Isreal. So no, be sympathetic to the Palestinian people, but save none of those feelings for Hamas. You should totally fault them, as their goals are just as evil as ISIS, The Muslim Brotherhood, and Al Qaeda.

draneceusrex,

Is it a tiny area? Yes. But they can find other places than schools and hospitals. Sorry no. The blatant disregard for lives is apparent for Hamas as much as it is for the IDF. War isn’t fair by definition, but a force that intentionally puts in danger the lives they are supposedly fighting for as a PR stunt doesn’t need you to white knight them. The Palestinian do.

And to be clear, Jewish Zionists and the west had a major hand in all of this, but didn’t cause this in a vacuum either. 900,000 Jews had to flee Muslim countries from 1948 to 1979 because of ethnic cleansing. Why are Gaza, the Golan Heights, and East Jerusalem occupied? Because of multiple wars started by Arab nations seeking to destroy Isreal. Hamas began in 1987 as an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood to operate as violent militants separate from the PLO who was staring to accept comprimise and terms of the Isreali government. There are Islamist that will never accept Isreal, and Isreal’s destruction is the backbone of Hamas’s cause. The only way to “fix the problem” for them would be for the Jews to leave.

Netanyahu doesn’t want a two-state solution to be successful either, and that is why he gave money to Hamas, to help prevent the Palestinian Authority from gaining power in Gaza which would be a much more moderate government. Prime Minister Rabin was killed in 1995 by a Zionist Ultranational because of Oslo. Since then, Netanyahu’s party has done everything they can to destabilize any hope for peace to stay in power by fear. Settlers and apartheid policies abound. I am not giving Isreal a pass on this at all.

But BOTH sides need to decide they are tired of the violence and let moderate voices be heard, those open to both coexistence and comprise. While Netanyahu’s Likur party and Hamas remain in power, this will not be a possibility.

draneceusrex,

Agreed, but to your last point, it is also worth noting that there are different economic models under authoritarian regimes. Both Nazi Germany and the USSR were dictatorships. Is it Marixist Communism in Cuba? No. But it is recognizable as a communist state as was perpetuated by the Soviet Union historically, regardless if you feel the term has been misappropriated.

draneceusrex,

One person being able to kill and erase from the country’s history books anyone under him, but is unable to micromanage every detail for a country with millions of people and is still forced to delegate tasks, does not make a dictatorship. Got it CIA. Thanks for the details of the semantics of the situation of these authoritarian regimes.

draneceusrex,

I am sure that Biden was being super spiteful and melicious about it and was deliberately lying rather than passing down hearsay from his family he overheard throughout his life /s.

No, wasn’t a good look politically, and I do agree with New Guinea the US should do more to recover our fallen soldiers whose remains are still missing on foreign soil. Glad this conversation can put a spotlight there. But this is a minor gaff, simple as that.

draneceusrex,

Let him appeal if he’s convicted. If he is initially sentenced to prison, he’s not allowed to post bail and will continue to serve. Hopefully it would take a while to get up to SCOTUS, and he can enjoy wearing orange to match the rest of him for at least that long.

draneceusrex,

He’s required to be at the criminal trial, so no easy excuse.

draneceusrex,

One more thing

draneceusrex,

With the level of loony of of MAGA, yeah, that’s exactly what someone in his camp would say.
