Ah yes, of course Jake, how could I have been so blind? The benevolent freedom fighters of Hamas, guardians of justice, protectors of women’s rights, LGBTQ+ citizens, and interfaith harmony everywhere. Their tireless work in turning Gaza into a beacon of pluralism and technological innovation over the last 20 years with no help from Israel c…[Read more]

Reg,

I am gobsmocked by your lack of understanding. Such an aberration is hard to fathom. You’re ordinarily quite astute. So i will write this off as a one-off and educate you.

Don’t you know that Hamas is at the forefront of the resistance against the evil zionist entity? Those brave leaders are spearheading the resistance to all forms of…[Read more]

Ceasefires depend on both sides believing the other will abide by what they agreed to. The  track record isn’t great here. If Hamas remains in power and still armed, that undermines the logic of the ceasefire. They still don’t accept Israel’s right to exist.

Viva la resistance!

Execute those vile collaborators. Do it publicly. Muslim Arabs and lefties will be with you.

The problem is, there’s “something for everyone” in the scripture.  God is both vengeful and merciful.  Now, in real life, that is what is required to enforce proper behaviour.  It’s just that some people love the “venge…[Read more]

I am trying to explain to an Irish-American MAGA supporter that it is not the fault of the Democrats that there is a government shutdown. I explained it along the lines of the following:

“That’s not how it works. The House — which the Republicans control — is where all spending bills start. If the House GOP can’t agree among themselves on a budg…[Read more]

Simon, with the introduction of ‘a personal relationship with Jesus’ concept, no two Christians have the same set of strongly held views – your post seems to imply that it’s a set based on the religion, rather than on the individual’s pick-and-choose approach to what God wants 🙂

Bondi managed to get through her hearing without answering any substantive question, the list being detailed by Adam Schiff:

These combative non-answers remind me of a taught and practiced, primary tactic of LRH’s (inventor of Scientology), when cult members argue with wogs (non cult members): “The best defense is an…[Read more]
