What most surprised me was that the series had viewers from Gaza!. You know the place where the “Genocide” is supposed to be occurring?!?

You know, I seriously doubt that even if…[Read more]

Jake,

Yes, Doron is the real deal. He lives the role. He is a very believable character both as an ‘ordinary Israeli family man’ and even more so as a fluent Arabic speaking Muslim ‘spy’.

Reg,

My guess was Zionist propaganda. Was not aware of the other potential reaction. I guess the cult is that wacked.

What is also cool about the series is that Doron (not sure of his name) lived the part he played as a commander of a counter-terrorism operative. The stress all spies must endure is unimaginable when they literally embed…[Read more]

I am quite skeptical that many will do a 180 after seeing Fauda on their Jew hating viewpoint/Palestinianism…

I have been interacting with ‘Hamas’ supporters for over 20 years. I will aver that in that time the have become ‘stupider more’. They are now so uninformed (or maybe ‘ill-informed’ is a better term) that they are a different species to…[Read more]

Enco,

Check this video. Here is a firsthand account of a Lebanese woman of the vile Jew hating culture that is endemic in the middle east. Like i said when this debate started about Israel it is the culture dummy. There is nothing intrinsic about people in the middle east that hatred of Jews/Israel is imperative. Otherwise i would be a de facto…[Read more]

Enco,

I don’t think Netflix’ tends to promote its content so that you would encounter it organically.

Well, normally. I’ll see streaming movies and series like the Yellowstone franchises and the Oppenheimer or Wicked movies cross-promoted and co-branded on boxes for different TVs.

Enco,

Fauda is a good series. Another one in that genre is Lioness. I am really enjoying that one. I think it is just Paramount though with a few episodes on Prime.

That’s a pity. Paramount has a great line-up, including every Star Trek series and every Star Trek movie, but I had too many technical problems with the service to justify…[Read more]

Jake and Reg:

‘m kind of wondering: Could the fact that I had not heard of this series mean that Netflix is scared to promote it in the present zeitgeist?

Or could it mean that Wokeists/Palestinianists/Islamists/Toadies in the theater/critical journalist realm don’t want to review it?

Jake and Reg:

I’m going to say something that’s gonna floor you!: I never heard of the series Fauda until now, much less that it had 5 seasons!

Netflix has had problem of affordability since even before Trump. It doubled in price when I had to drop it a few years ago (that’s a 100% rise in price translated to MAGA mathematicians.). The quality…[Read more]

Didn’t see Inglorious but i thought she played that archetype of a European woman whose beliefs lead her to a man with whom she’d otherwise be horrified. That flat affect much of the time and her ambivalence seeping through at various times was good writing and good acting.

Reg:

My discussion with my friend hasn’t turned to weeks yet and he has said that Vaccines are among the greatest boons to mankind, so he may not be too deep in the rabbit hole, but he has indicated in the past a like of listening to Art Bell and Alex Jones. (I have too, but with a very comedic funny bone on my eardrum.)

We’ll see how things…[Read more]

I also thought the casting of Melanie Laurent was clever, given her role in ‘Inglorious Basterds’.

Yes, just finished Fauda S5 this evening. All 5 seasons are worth watching. I will watch it again for E7 and E8. I was guessing it would go there but I was still surprised. I will leave my comments at that for now.

Leaders of lefty propaganda in re to Palestinianism are scum filth degenerates. Is that too harsh? Too judgmental for the guy always pushing a narrative about how humans are tabula rasa swept off feet by whatever the contemporary rivers no matter how cruel or how stupid?

If ya have not watched Fauda season 5 it is a pretty good watch. And i would…[Read more]

I’m doing my small part to see that there are no more victims of fully preventable killers.

I heard there was a flu season coming too, so I decided not to participate this past Labor Day weekend, as a…[Read more]

World of Woo: Pete Hegseth.

Pete Keg’s-Breath and Bobby Brainworm are the kind of idiots who say: “Welp! Ye go to war with the military you have!”

Uh, no! Not if you want to win that war!

During the last war the U.S. won–World War II, it’s been that long–we didn’t fight with the Military we had! We took the Military we had and made…[Read more]
