Time to set Jew vs. Palestinian aside for a bit. Trump just dragged the U.S. into the Israel/Iran conflict. “What Bibi wants, Bibi gets.”

@PopeBeanie

Gabbard refers to “political elite warmongers” and I think we know that she’s referring to rich and/or powerful people, many of the most influential being billionaires who, truth be told, could very well profit in the long run from a third world war.

Eventually, we may have to take the risk of giving up our own nuclear weapons if we…[Read more]

Israel is dragging us into a potential WW3.

You mentioned not provoking Putin into nuclear attack once, is that what you’re thinking?

WRT Iran, I think Israel has been significantly reducing the threat, avoiding civilian casualties as best as they can. I believe Iran really has been producing weapon-grade nuclear fuel, although I…[Read more]

Ok well if you’d indulge me then answer the following questions?

Wow, no, I’m tapping out now. I think we must just have wildly different opinions of what “the left” is, and how monolithic it is. My opinion is not cut in stone, I’m learning from the ex-Muslim women you’ve turned us on to, and I want more.

Although I did want t…[Read more]

Israel is dragging us into a potential WW3. Bibi has been warning the Iran is just 2 months away from a nuclear bomb for years and years. So, now is the time to call on the U.S. to put an end to it and open up golf course opportunities (of course).

Pair this with Trump’s mental decline is becoming hard…[Read more]

My conversations with the rabbi are pleasant. It probably helps that he’s an atheist. But the Baptist minister I worked with for a while had a couple issues with me, taking me to a Calvary headquarters once (in Florida), introducing me a superior of his, noting “He likes to think”, and the superior said “Ah, I see”. Once he called me Satan across…[Read more]

If you want to hear varied accounts first hand listen to the Yasmine Mohammed podcast. Here is the most recent episode.

4/3 of an hour… was well worth the listen. Funny at times, too. Tragedy and comedy being on opposite sides of the same coin.

Thanks Strega, Unseen gave me the idea and this eternal waiting for a remote server to reboot allowed me the time……and there it is as I pen these words….back as a mirror image of itself from 90 minutes ago….its present state identical to its past…….and me with a little less gray matter and a lot more gray hair…….:-)

We need a complete series like this. Martin Heidegger orders pizza, Nietsche shops for skateboards, Sartre shops for toys, etc.

Several of the most recent posts here hit hard. I especially appreciate Jake’s examples of outspoken women focusing on their past experience of Muslim culture. My biggest hope at the moment is for more women to jump in. My biggest worry is that it’s too late, as political systems continue to double down on their most self-serving agendas.
