I think that Tom Leykis doesn’t like women.

I see him as akin to Trump. He likes money and he made money off guys who don’t like women the same way Trump makes money off the ignorant disaffected. BTW, Leykis seems to have withdrawn from public life. Spending his millions or sitting there every night with a bottle of hootch a…[Read more]

I also find that many of my friends that have been single and living alone for years get really rigid in their views and are easily irritated. Some have even become radicalized. There is no one to call them out on their bullshit.

Sharing experiences with that right person is just always better, in my opinion. Having someone to lean on when you are challenged or vice-versa just brings you even closer and deeper. Both parties have to be at a certain emotional IQ level or it’s just not gonna work. I wasn’t ready for commitment in my 20s, 30s or early 40s eve…

You are making an unwarranted assumption there. Some people (I’m one) thrive on being alone. It’s when I’m with other people that I’m alone.

If Hamas has fighters hiding in the apartment, of course it’s going to get bombed!

As if that’s the only way to handle it. Suppose you had some hiding in your house?

Well, it’s not like the Israeli hostages can use Instacart or GrubHub while being held captive! Their food and water are at the mercy of Hamas!

And Ham…

It seems like a very cynical point of view.  I don’t see how that guy will ever be happy – indoor shades or not.

Beside the point. His situation is unique. We’re not talk show hosts, nor are we multimillionaires. We’re also not getting laid regularly in “no strings” relationships. He’s not much to look at and female call…[Read more]

In the world of relationships, there is only one thing men need from women.

Sex. “Men give love in order to get sex. Women give sex in order to get love.”

And women have made themselves less lovable. They work hard on making themselves attractive. Makeup, sexy clothes, and many visits to the gym and they think they are entitled to attention. But…[Read more]

I googled “apartment building leveled by hamas” and all the results were for apartment buildings leveled by Israel. I’m not lying: do the search yourself.

Then you speculate (no evidence offered) that Hamas may have done the same to their hostages. So, let’s call that an attempted proof by fabrication.

As for intercepting relief food… Wasn’t…

Can you even imagine the outrage the American government would express, along with strident accusations of war crimes if the situations were reversed and it was Hamas engaging in mass killing of civilians, leveling most civilian dwellings, attacking and destroying hospitals, torturing prisoners, starving Israeli civilians and withholding potable…[Read more]

The U.S. Finds Itself Further Isolated After ICJ Orders Israel To Halt Rafah Offensive

From the article:

WASHINGTON (AP) — A U.N. court’s order that Israel halt its offensive in the southern Gaza city of Rafah has deepened a disconnect with the United States over a military operation that faces mounting international condemnation but that Ameri…[Read more]

Only our enemies commit war crimes

From the article:

Take the State Department’s long-awaited report on Israel’s compliance with international law in Gaza, which came out late last week. The administration found that Israel had likely used U.S. weapons to commit war crimes but said there wasn’t enough evidence to draw clear conclusions about…[Read more]

The Warning is now in a position to hire opening acts. I expect they will use this capability to offer a hand up to up-and-coming musicians. Holy Wars will be opening for The Warning in coming days.

@ Jake

So, I guess I’m not an antisemite after all. That term’s definition has been so broadened by many that almost any expression of doubt about or distaste for Israeli conduct is being called antisemitic nowadays.

@ Jake

Someone who does not hate Jews is not an antisemite. I don’t hate Jews. The punch line of that syllogism is obvious.

If you are sure I’m an antisemite, say so.

Reminder, though, from this forum’s guidelines:

Netanyahu’s government is hiding behind Hamas human shields to protect their pogrom against average Palestinian human beings from humanitarian criticism.

Israel cops aid attackers derailing aid for trapped Palestinians.

Is there any school that will experiment with critical thinking as a primary component of education?

I would hope that any truly critical thinker would not want Israel to respond to Hamas’s barbarism with even more extreme barbarism, as they seem to be doing now.

@ Enco

So, do Iranians hate and want to murder every last Jew or not? Your depiction is of a country that wants to join the civilized nations, it would seem.
