Sad to see that a large and growing percentage of Republicans are now rejecting and openly opposing the cherished principles of democracy that are the foundation of the United States and that generations of Americans have sacrificed to serve and to protect.
Sader is that this Republican demise will forever be associated with a mindless devotion to a man like Donald Trump. The humiliation of that stain upon the character of American “conservatives” will endure long after Trump is gone.

Big surprise.
“The immediate response” will be a bipartisan funding package combining Ukraine aid with Israeli aid that will pass easily and quickly. And that will bury Pedo Gaetz and Wrestler Gym.
The same Iranian drones used this morning in Israel are also being used by Trump pal Putin in Ukraine. That’s according to Mitch McConnell.
Funny old world.

The same Iranian drones used this morning in Israel are also being used by Trump pal Putin in Ukraine.
Roughly 2,000 miles – primarily through Iran – from Afghanistan to Gaza.
How long until we find out that abandoned US weaponry was used to strike Israel today?
[Haven’t heard about the Iranian drones, but saw multiple reports of Hamas terrorists using motorized “paragliders” to cross the border.]
Russian GRU operated Birdshite and other social media bot accounts are proliferating content this morning attempting to link US support for Ukraine with claims of “abandoning” Israel.

Hi risk. No shit. My corrupt, incompetent, senile fossil of a president did it anyway.

And Putin backs Hamas.
So does Biden. See @ 12.
Speaking of Bibi, Israeli defense intelligence analysts have been warning him for months now that his sweeping and intrusive efforts to overhaul Israeli government bureaucracy to give him more control would leave the state wide open to a coordinated multi-front attack.
Netanyahu dismissed them all as “leftists” and his senior cabinet ministers told alarmed IDF generals to “go to hell”.
Sound familiar?
What a massive failure of Israeli intelligence.

Don’t forget the US backing of Iran. My corrupt, incompetent, senile fossil of a president just got done handing Iran $6 billion. That’s $6 billion that Iran doesn’t need from Russia.
Any minute now QoS McHillbilly is gonna blame Israel making nice with Saudi Arabia. You just cannot provoke Iran like that. You just cannot. Not after Obama has made it clear that the US under Democrat rule wants Iran to have nukes.

As much as I want to see all of Memorial Stadium preserved, I’ll settle for the Memorial Wall itself. The Grandstands were in bad shape when I was in High School, that was 30 years ago. Still there is a lot of history in the grandstands itself, and if it wasn’t Seattle Public Schools itself pushing this application, the Board could have been designated the whole stadium. King 5’s first broadcast, a championship game between West Seattle and Wenatchee, was at the then-new Memorial Stadium.
https://mynorthwest.com/3934060/memorial-wall-not-stadium-designated-historic-seattle-landmark/
The grandstands and field will be replaced, and may even gain the Seattle Seawolves Major League Rugby team. Some of the fans are already complaining, sight unseen, about lack of parking or transit access. One way to handle that, an exit from the grandstands to the direction of the Monorail terminal.
SPS enrollment is Peaks and Valleys, currently they are considering mothballing a few schools(they rarely sell surplus ones anymore,) There has been talk over the years a Downtown-adjacent HS may be needed, and unlike Wallingford, where Lincoln HS was reactivated, SPS has no surplus property in the area, Broadway closed in 1946, now the Seattle Central College campus(Go Tigers, incidentally, also Broadways mascot), and Queen Anne HS closed in 1981, now apartments. Parking lot at Memorial Stadium might have been a logical place to build.
@8 “How long until we find out that abandoned US weaponry was used to strike Israel today?”
Can’t wait until it actually happens, can you? But you’re typical of Republicans — make shit up and hope it comes true. Most of the time it doesn’t, makes your ilk look like liars time after time.
@9 “Russian GRU operated Birdshite and other social media bot accounts are proliferating content this morning attempting to link US support for Ukraine with claims of ‘abandoning’ Israel.”

A pox on both their houses. They deserve each other. There are no good guys in this cage fight.

@18 ” … just got done handing Iran $6 billion” of their own money, but never mind that detail. Republicans get excited about property rights only when they need an excuse for shooting at a car full of kids that pulled into their driveway by mistake.
@19 “Not after Obama has made it clear that the US under Democrat rule wants Iran to have nukes.”
You’re mistaken. It’s Trump who removed all the restraints from Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons.
@20 Frankly, I think the State Department should hand a printed warning to every American waiting to board a plane bound for Russia, China, Iran, or Saudi Arabia that the U.S. will not trade for them.
After all, Doctor Dumbfuck says the U.S. shouldn’t pay $1 billion a nose for Americans who go venturing into Iran for whatever reason (and there are no good reasons). Shouldn’t we heed his wisdom?
What better example of the benefit of public transit in a Democrat-run city can there be than a 14 year-old stabbing a 13 year-old to death on a transit bus?

No kidding! Israel is NOT part of the US and is NOT an ally. Why else would they send Jonathan Pollard to spy against us or knowingly attack our Navy’s ship in June of 1967? It’s time to seal at arm’s length with all of the Middle East and the rest of the world.
Perhaps we’re wrong to call Republicans fascists. Maybe they’re really monarchists.

Israel is a peculiar experiment in nation state hood.
I mean a truly “jewish state” would have only jews living in its borders..
Yet if Israel had the wherewithal to expel ALL those of non-jewish ethnicity it would risked being treated as a pariah state from its origins.. That would have only emboldened and strengthened world-wide anti-semitic sentiment.
And from the start the borders of Israel were a problem for the new jewish state. It had to expand. It had to eventually annex the Golan Heights. It had to encompass the all the lands from “the river to the sea”.. For its security and a fresh water supply for its burgeoning population.
Israel manages the “arab problem” with fences, walls, checkpoints, a militarized population, a regime of ongoing repressive measures and occasional exercises of “mowing the grass”.. This is the Israeli version of the “white man’s burden”.
I personally throw up my hands.. Israel will be Israel. Its highest value is the preservation of the jewish state at more or less any cost.. If it means racism, they will be racist.. If it means bombing concentrations of Palestinians and killing kids, it will do that.
And we give almost 4 billions dollars a year to that.. More foreign aid than we give to any country. Billions of dollars that Israel is free to spend however it pleases – on equipping its military, on building settlements, on fences, walls and a host of repressive measures to keep at bay the demons have plagued the jewish state since its inception.
@35 Agreed; but being the amoral, greedy, and rapacious capitalist I am, I’m not above owning Israeli defense stocks. I paid $36 for Elbit Systems, and it’s what? $208 now? I wonder what it’ll be Monday?
No stock portfolio is really complete without investing in Israeli militarism. An endless stream of revenue is virtually guaranteed. Israel’s highest value to me is capital appreciation and dividends.
Don’t get me wrong; I’d love for Israelis and Palestinians to settle their differences and bring a just and lasting peace to the Middle East. But I’m a realist; and not being in a position to affect events, like Gman @39 I throw up my hands, and settle for the profits of eternal war as a distant second choice.
Around the peak of his career, in between early rounds, one of Tyson’s ill fated opponents was heard to mutter through a spray of his own blood, “N!&&#r sounds like a girl,”.

Some of US Navy anti missile weapon stockpiles that the Biden administration has been trying to transfer to Israel to replenish its anti missile defenses are being delayed because Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville has blocked confirmation of Admiral Lisa M.

The money made accessible to Iran as a part of the deal are Iranian funds that have been held in restricted South Korean accounts. Sources told CNN the funds came from oil sales that were allowed and placed into accounts set up under the Trump administration.
https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/18/politics/iran-money-explainer/index.html
The Shit-Lord Crybaby lying has become a ritual daily routine to accompany his ritual daily humiliation.
Brett McGurk, White House coordinator for the Middle East and North Africa, said Monday that “no funds are going to Iran at all.”
“These funds are paid to vetted third-party vendors for food, medicine, medical products and agricultural products to go into Iran over a period of years. If there is any diversion, we’ll know it and we’ll lock up these accounts,”
The lying is necessary now that the troll’s Republican Party has abandoned national loyalty and democratic principles to embrace authoritarian grift in service to a failed reality television celebrity.
47,
None of it goes in any direction so long as Republicans in Congress continue to empower and protect the dangerous extremists within their own ranks like Tommy Tuberville. Their loyalty is always to party first. They certainly don’t care if Marines die because of that.
Any reason the corrupt authoritarian Netanyahu won’t use this “intelligence failure” to consolidate power and silence critics?

Even with a Croix de Guerre, Legion of Honor, and Resistance Medal, the law still applied after the war.

But that clearly does not preclude his unguarded admission that it’s bullshit when he thinks he’s off mic.
Republican Logic 101: None of the $6 billion of Iranian oil money unfrozen by the Biden administration has been spent yet, therefore Biden funded the Hamas attacks on Israel.

Democracy has its limitations; in a country where two-thirds of the voters can’t correctly spell their own names, and one of the major political parties habitually lies, this is likely to become a majority opinion.

A couple of notable things here are that DOJ prosecutors have never offered the Santos campaign treasurer any kind of cooperation agreement and are seeking a long custodial sentence. Yet Marks’ attorneys indicate they are still very eager to offer her testimony against Santos.
That set of facts usually indicates an overpowering case for the prosecution that nobody involved with has any real expectation other than conviction.
Looks like another Republican of average Republican intelligence is also going to “find out”.

I found this in Barrons magazine (10/9/23 print edition, page 35):
“Incredibly, many investors say 70% to 90% of all options trades end in a loss. The figures have been cited for decades and reinforced by academic studies ….
“It’s easy to conclude that the options market needs losers like people need oxygen. Dumb investors — and they are a hallmark of every market — create reliable profits for options dealers, who historically have had many colorful sayings about them.”
Of course, this doesn’t apply to Doctor Dumbfuck, who can reliably predict market moves in advance, and wins with every trade. I only posted this to explain why I, a mere dumb bunny, don’t trade options.
For mortals like me, Barrons offered this advice:
“Stocks first; options second. Only trade options on stocks you own or want to buy. … Use options to better manage your stocks, not for speculation. … Sophisticated investors usually sell options, as dealers often overprice them., Stocks must make extraordinary moves for long options to be profitable — which happens less than you might think. … [G]uard against overconfidence.”
I have no confidence in my ability to trade options, so I don’t try. Is that sensible?
Is owning a horse, having to feed it, pay veterinary bills, needing acreage for it, etc., sound sensible? A nice hobby, if you can afford it, but not a method of saving or investing.

Sophisticated investors usually sell options, as dealers often overprice them., Stocks must make extraordinary moves for long options to be profitable…
Right now I have about four dozen options positions. Only one of them is a purchased call, and that call expires Dec 2025. All of the others are either sold calls or sold puts, and I was paid the option premium up-front.
I disagree that share prices have to change extraordinarily for a long option to be profitable. What the author probably meant is that share prices on a purchased call have to change extraordinarily for that transaction to be profitable. If shares are at $50 and a call is sold at $60 or a put is sold at $40, expiration in January 2025, and that share price does not budge over the ensuing 15 months, the option expires worthless, and the full premium paid is retained by the seller. Zero change in share price or $9.99 change in share price, the profit on the option transaction is the same.

Here’s a wrinkle for him and them to gnaw on: Some of the hostages are Americans. And Biden is moving an aircraft carrier to the scene. I think maybe we’re gonna be in this war, too.

72)His ilk probably loves to jump on issues with the bus in my neighborhood, but as bus routes go, rt7 has pretty much kept it’s core routing ever since the Seattle Municipal Street Railway initiated bus service on Rainier Ave after the shutdown of the Seattle and Rainier Valley Interurban. Besides average people, some prominent citizens have road it over the years. Like a son of a doctor living in Rainier Beach who played baseball at Franklin High School, Fred Hutchinson. (Should have been a Viking, not a Quaker, but RBHS would not open until the 50s.) The politician on the bus in this mural honoring rt7 and prominent Rainier Valley residents would know about being backstabbed by members of his caucus. Its long time State Rep John L O’Brien, ousted as House Speaker in 63, but seemed not bitter about it, had a chance to reclaim the gavel in 65, but declined.

Rt7 has had a few issues over the years, but I’m more concerned about reliability. I admit some characters may make people nervous, I’ve seen drivers have to stop some from getting on. Just its high ridership alone gives it reliability issues, even if crime was not a problem in the city. Tgey never stop working on speeding it up. Not much more can be done on frequency, every 7-10 minutes peak, maybe down to 5 would help, but 7-10 requires nearly 20 buses to handle that frequency. Battery electric buses would make it worse. The biggest block I’ve seen with articulated battery buses in 6 hours on rt101, makes three round trips to Renton and Doentown Seattle, fewer if it includes a trip on the 102. An articulated trolleybus doesn’t need fuel or charging, I’ve seen some on the road for 24 hours.
Hunter Biden’s daughter Naomi ‘vandalized’ US Capitol while a Senate Page — which led to groveling apology
Makes me wonder if the dumbfuck ever noticed the tearful, groveling apologies made by his dozen cosplaying grandmothers before they were sentenced to decades in prison for their violent assault on our nation’s Capitol and sedition. Oh, and for smearing their own shit all over the place. Classy grandmothers, huh?
The little POS cunt was given a job in Harry Reid’s office, and used her privileged access to do this.
Men are unserious twats and women are POS cunts in Dumbfuck World where dumbfuck incel fascists, superior beings all, stand tall above those below them. You know, the pathetic trash who still believe in democracy and who actually get laid by members of their own species? It’s the latter that really rubs the dumbfuck Incel fascists the wrong way.

Not to mention a career in public service and a successful marriage to an actual human being. Greedy Incel fascists struggle mightily to relate to that kind of stuff.
@89 “was given a job in Harry Reid’s office, and used her privileged access to do this”
That’s true. She didn’t batter her way into the Capitol in order to carve “Kilroy was here” into the ceiling. Or try to overthrow our democratically-elected government.
Funny how the dumbfuck overlooks that. As for me, if I were forced to choose between vandals, I’d take her vandalism over MAGA vandalism every day of the week.
Benjy built his political career on gratuitously bullying, brutalizing, and provoking the Palestinians. Until yesterday, he may even have believed his “Peace Through Oppression” policy had them pacified (although see below).
Israel blockaded Gaza by land, sea, and air. I mean, the place was hermetically sealed! A termite couldn’t get in or out without a pass. So, even though it ran the place, there’s no way Hamas could’ve stockpiled 5,000 rockets to use against Israel, amirite?
Mossad is the best intelligence service in the world. A Palestinian can’t sneeze without their knowing about it, and Benjy gets up-to-the-minute intelligence briefings. There’s no way Hamas could prepare a large-scale attack without his knowledge, amirite?
And this weekend all the Israeli soldiers were in their barracks for a well-deserved day of rest and relaxation, because nothing’s going to happen on a major Jewish holiday, amirite?
Well, Benjy got the war he wanted, so he can assume dictatorial powers. But it took a lot of work to wag that dog, didn’t it?

At this point I just want to remind everyone that Republicans have not yet achieved the tax system they aspire to, which is no taxation of capital gains, stock options, rents, dividends or interest, inheritances and gifts — in other words, no taxes on any form of income except employee wages. They’re also against taxing investments, savings, and property. They will, however, accept a 38% federal sales tax on consumers in lieu of a progressive income tax.

Hamas is rejoicing.
there’s no way Hamas could’ve stockpiled 5,000 rockets to use against Israel,
The rockets are homemade out of commonly available materials like pipe and sheet metal. They are propelled with sugar and fertilizer. And the payload charge is only about 10% TNT (which isn’t too hard to smuggle or synthesize) mixed with more fertilizer. They can be easily concealed and transported in a passenger car.
No doubt this was a huge Intel failure by Israel. But it also represents some very disciplined opsec by Hamas.
@101
There’s not a chance in the world that it wasn’t known by any of their intelligence and spy agencies, Let alone that there are other ALLIED agencies in the world ALSO spying on Hamas.
The best case scenario, is few knew about it and were told to let it happen as a common enemy is great to unite a divided country, which Israel is massively so since this summer.

It’s easier to “not know” a thing than it is to know it and ignore it anyway. While both may amount to the same thing, operationally and politically it may be more likely that the Netanyahu government reduced certain efforts at monitoring and discovery while at the same time introducing skepticism and scrutiny toward certain key reports. That is, assuming Netanyahu welcomed the slaughter of his own people.
I’m on the fence about that.
He’s incredibly corrupt. And politically ruthless. But I’m not sure he’s that much of a monster that he would conjure into being or even stand by and allow an attack like this to develop.
“Israel’s current hard-right government, dominated by factions that oppose a peace agreement with the Palestinians, has been conducting a de facto annexation of the West Bank. It has turned a blind eye to settler violence against West Bank civilians, including a February rampage in the town of Huwara.
“Israel’s focus on the West Bank may also have created an operational opportunity for Hamas. According to Uzi Ben Yitzhak, a retired Israeli general, the Israeli government has deployed most of the regular IDF forces to the West Bank to manage the situation there — leaving only a skeleton force at the Gaza border. The effort to secure permanent Israeli control over the West Bank, in this assessment, created conditions where a Hamas surprise attack could actually succeed.”
https://www.vox.com/2023/10/7/23907323/israel-war-hamas-attack-explained-southern-israel-gaza
Not a pretty picture from any angle.
It defies logic that Israel can ever have peace by treating the Palestinians the way they do. But it also seems neither ordinary Israelis nor ordinary Palestinians get to choose their governments. So there you are: The first perpetual motion machine known to physics.

@117 A “long-term and just peace in the region” is incompatible with Israel’s notion of “security.”
Israel’s far-right leadership can’t lay off provoking Palestinians, and Hamas can’t lay off terrorism. So there won’t be any peace.

Exterminating Hamas has not yet been attempted. A declaration of war makes it different this time. Wars end when one side is soundly defeated and surrenders. This one should be no different.
@123 Exterminating Hamas, desirable as that is, will not bring peace. That would require that Israel either stop mistreating the Palestinian people, or exterminate them. And there’s virtually no chance the current Israeli regime will stop mistreating them. So before peace can happen, Hamas and Netanyahu both need to be gone. Unless you’re prepared to endorse the wholesale genocide of the Palestinian people.
“There is no way leadership on either side survives.”

No, that was Pelosi in advance of J6.
Why on earth would Nancy need to plan in advance for a dozen cosplaying grandmothers visiting the Capitol?
“Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.) on Sunday scolded fellow Democrat Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) for … mischaracterizing the invasion as ‘resistance.’ And he took issue with Tlaib and Missouri Democrat Cori Bush’s apparent plea for the United States to cease funding for Israel. … ‘U.S. aid to Israel is and should be unconditional, and never more so than in this moment of critical need,’ Torres added in a statement.”
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ritchie-torres-rashida-tlaib-cori-bush-israel_n_6523bebde4b0a32c15bf46a8
Torres is half-right. The Hamas attack is terrorism, not resistance. But no U.S. aid to anyone should ever be unconditional. The U.S. should support Israel, but should pressure Israeli to refrain from actions that are clearly wrong and provoke conflict.
I think I could make another run for it. Plenty of them love me!
Today’s quiz: The principal of a public high school saw a 17-year-old student dancing at an off-campus party in a social media video. He summoned her to his office, chastised her, questioned who her friends were, told her she would be removed as student body president, and would no longer be recommended for a college scholarship because she was “not living in the Lord’s way.” Question: How much money should the school district pay her for violating her constitutional right to freedom from the principal’s religion?
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ap-us-dancing-student-punished_n_65247407e4b0102e6963205c
“Zero” obviously is a wrong answer, but otherwise there’s really no “right” answer, although it should be possible to come up with a range. For violating her civil rights, including treble damages and attorney’s fees under 42 U.S. Code § 1981, including attorney fees, plus harm to reputation, damages for emotional distress, and compensation for loss of the monetary value of the scholarship, I’d guess this jackass cost the school district somewhere between $400K and $600K, not including the district’s costs of defending the lawsuit.

@137 “ACAB never acknowledged the gunpowder residue on the POS Antifa asswipe’s hands.”
I’m just guessing, but maybe because the medical examiner’s autopsy report said there wasn’t any? But that’s just a detail, and you’re not a detail person.
The only living witnesses are the cops who were at the scene, and more than one of them thought the cop who got shot in the leg was hit by friendly fire.
That, by itself, doesn’t prove the dead “activist” didn’t shoot at the cops. Neither do the bullet holes in his outstretched palms. Putting it all together, it may simply mean they were all lousy shots.
Further information about the POS fake elector who assaulted the process server serving him with a lawsuit by a cybersecurity firm he hired to comb voting machines for evidence of election fraud and reported back they didn’t find any, whereupon he refused to pay them:

He then attempted to yank my phone out of my hand again and struck me in the right shoulder/collarbone. He then pushed me and I twisted my left hip which is healing from a third replacement. Bill Brachenburg proceeded to scream to ‘call the police,’ ‘don’t let him out,’ ‘he’s trespassing!’ The Pennsylvania State Police report number is: PA2023-1294441; there was a citation issued to Bill Brachenburg. The EMS report is enclosed. I went to St. Luke’s Hospital Anderson Campus for treatment.”

You will recall many Republicans want to defund the brave Ukrainian people’s resistance to invaders capable of such atrocities. Thankfully, so far there’s no sign of GOPers supporting Hamas, too; right now the Russians are the only thugs they’re openly cheering for. Them and the ghosts of Pinochet and Latin American death squads.
Blowing up Palestinian civilians who had no part in this neither takes terrorists out of circulation, nor exacts revenge. It merely creates a new generation of terrorists. Is that why Republicans are so enthusiastic about blowing up Palestinian civilians?

I know it’s hard.
But it’s possible to want Hamas destroyed while at the same time knowing nearly two decades of a blockade that sees water deliveries only every 15 days, starvation, a 47% unemployment rate, withholding of medical supplies whenever you’re feeling like the people there are getting too uppity, and no ability for Gazans to get out of that situation as morally reprehensible as well.
But Conservatives are only capable of binary thinking. (See what I did there)
It takes work to understand how Republicans can be antisemitic and pro-Israel at the same time. It probably goes to their affection for conquering and occupying. That also explains their fondness for Putin’s Russia.

“Israel’s military has discovered unspeakable horrors in an Israeli community that was attacked by Hamas on Saturday, including dozens of dead babies, some with their heads chopped off, Israeli media reported. According to local Israeli outlet i24News, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers moved into Kfar Aza, one of the communities Hamas terrorists invaded early Saturday morning, and discovered about 40 dead babies, some decapitated — highlighting the brutality of the invading forces.”
https://www.aol.com/news/least-40-babies-beheaded-found-154607254.html
The kibbutz, located only 1/4 mile from the Gaza border, was easy pickings. That made it an obvious target. But why did the attackers gruesomely murder babies? It’s hard to make logical sense of this, but it’s unlikely this was an impulsive or random act. Hamas’s intent appears to be to provoke a brutal Israeli response, which would help them recruit more fighters from Gaza’s Palestinian youths.
Meanwhile, in a video here, an Israeli soldier tells a BBC reporter that “we will keep our values; we will kill our enemy, but not civilians.” This may be more personal or aspirational than what actually happens in the fog of war, but in the wake of the kibbutz slaughter, Israel need do very little to hold the moral high ground.
The Hamas atrocities will only serve to further turn the world against Palestinians and distract attention away from legitimate Palestinian grievances, while engendering sympathy for Netanyahu’s regime. It’s as if Hamas wants to harm the Palestinian cause. There are many reasons for them to do that.

@176 “Your party and your thinking assumes that when faced with an absolutely devastating level of poverty and malnutrition they should just sit back and take it.”
At #173 we see Doctor Dumbfuck lusting to bomb Palestinians who do just sit back and take it. By way of full disclosure, he wants to kill terrorists, too; but you get a feeling he’d be disappointed if there isn’t collateral damage among Gazan women and children.
Exploding bombs behead babies and children, too, but the Israelis don’t revel in it like Doctor Dumbfuck does. He’s more like Hamas than the IDF.
By the way, most of the Hamas terrorists who committed the atrocities probably are already dead. They were on a suicide mission, and probably few of them made it back to Gaza, so it isn’t necessary to kill innocent civilians to take them out. Just thought I’d mention it.
@ 178
You’re a terrific recruiting tool for Hamas, doc.
Israel should just sit back, let Hamas regroup, and bide its time until the next set of 3-4 dozen Israeli babies is beheaded, I suppose.
Hamas is an incredibly recruiting tool for its own extinction, by any means necessary.
That’s what 360,000 soldiers being called up by their military means, Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit.
Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit: But that doesn’t mean that Israel should actually, you know, defend themselves.
@ 178
It doesn’t surprise me that you’re willing to blow up innocent civilians to get at the terrorists.
In 1972 a Palestinian terror group hijacked a plane. An Israeli commando unit stormed the plane and neutralized the threat. Four Israeli citizens were shot during that raid.
One of them is named Benjamin Netanyahu. He wa shot by his own team.
Don’t think Palestinians who choose – or are forced – to stand in front of Hamas terrorists is going to mean anything in deterrence after what happened over the weekend.
@184 You actually think someone would choose to stand in front of a terrorist who just murdered Israeli babies?
I’ll tell you what I think, I think your brain is missing some neurons.
I’ll use a separate spew for summarizing what I wrote @ 184.
In 1972 Israel neutralized 4 terrorists, and four Israelis were shot in the process.
I don’t see any reason why Israel wouldn’t be willing to risk 10,000 Gazan citizen deaths in its effort to neutralize 10,000 Hamas terrorists. After all, those were the ratios that resulted from the 1972 events, and those didn’t include decapitated Israeli babies.
“Hamas ‘firmly’ rejected President Joe Biden’s remarks on Israel, calling it an ‘inflammatory statement’ that aims to ‘escalate the tension by the barbaric Zionist regime against the Palestinian people,’ according to a written statement published Tuesday.
“Hamas said Biden’s remarks overshadowed the ‘criminality and terrorism of the Zionist government’ and criticized the US president for not addressing ‘massacres committed by the Zionist forces against people in cold blood.’
“Hamas concluded the statement urging the American administration to reassess its position and accusing it of exhibiting a ‘policy of double standards’ when it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”

This from an outfit that cut off babies’ heads, killed Americans, and is holding American hostages. I think they’re missing some brain neurons, too.
But not at all with terrorists who have brutally murdered, raped, kidnapped half a million Ukrainians.
Because Republicans love some terrorists.
But they do despise non-whites.
What does it take to have a full deck between the ears? A lot of you stupid humans obviously don’t. Maybe it’s time for rabbits to run this place. Humans have been doing it for over a million years and keep fucking up.
@ 185
You actually think someone would choose to stand in front of a terrorist who just murdered Israeli babies?
I can name at least four someones, Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit:
AOC
Ilhan Omar
Rashida Tlaib
Ayanna Pressley
I probably could add Cori Bush to that list. Jamaal Bowman’s in enough trouble this month that he probably isn’t on that list. Yet.
@186 “I don’t see any reason why Israel wouldn’t be willing to risk 10,000 Gazan citizen deaths in its effort to neutralize 10,000 Hamas terrorists.”
You may not, but the Israeli soldier in the video @175 isn’t on board with your genocidal scheming, so you’ve got some work to do if you want to bring it about. It’s probably easiest for you to start at the top with Netanyahu and work down from there into the IDF rank and file. You’ll probably find a few kindred sociopaths in the Israeli forces if you look hard enough. Every army has some.
@190 I doubt any of those individuals are willing to put their bodies between a Hamas terrorist and an Israeli soldier with a gun, but I’ll review your evidence when you post it.
Until then, I’ll regard this comment as another weak and feeble attempt to justify your amoral contempt for innocent Palestinian lives, which is of a piece with your casual disregard for innocent life everywhere.
I hesitate to call Doctor Dumbfuck evil, when all the evidence points to his being incomplete. It’s clear his brain lacks some of the neurons responsible for logical thinking; and that being the case, it’s reasonable to infer that all of the neurons responsible for moral thinking are missing, too. What we’re dealing with here is a partial vacuum and primitive computing power.
“A new indictment unsealed Tuesday charged U.S. Rep. George Santos with stealing the identities of donors to his campaign and then using their credit cards to ring up tens of thousands of dollars in unauthorized charges.”

Well, now we know where he gets his money. No reaction yet from the Republicans who’ve been protecting him.
Has anybody checked today to find out if Trump is still bragging that he brought peace to the Middle East?
Tommy Tubes called the cops on an ex-CIA director who tweeted something about his membership in the human race.
https://thehill.com/policy/defense/4248524-tuberville-reports-former-cia-director-hayden-to-capitol-police-over-tweet/
“Tuberville characterized the tweet as promoting ‘politically motivated assassination,’” which pretty much describes his own party’s campaign literature.
“’This statement is disgusting and it is repugnant to everything we believe in as Americans,’ Tuberville said in a statement Tuesday,” which sums up the party he belongs to.
I mean, really, he wants sympathy?
Oh hey, here’s AOC protecting Hamas terrorists with her body:
“Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) blasted a pro-Palestine rally in New York City over the weekend as promoting ‘bigotry’ amid the ongoing fighting between Israel and Hamas. … ‘It should not be hard to shut down hatred and antisemitism where we see it. That is a core tenet of solidarity,’ Ocasio-Cortez said …. ‘The bigotry and callousness expressed in Times Square on Sunday were unacceptable and harmful in this devastating moment. It also did not speak for the thousands of New Yorkers who are capable of rejecting both Hamas’ horrifying attacks against innocent civilians as well as the grave injustices and violence Palestinians face under occupation,’ she said.”

This is what actual thinking looks like, doc. You should try it sometime, if you have enough neurons for the task.
Republican Representative George Nastasha Devolder Sledgeheimer Schmidt Santos has now been charged in a superseding indictment with stealing credit card numbers from his exceptionally gullible and clueless Republican donors and running up charges for mail order home Botox, lip plumpers, and 6,000 pairs of Spanx.
Still not so much as a single peep from Republican House leadership about this growing humiliation.
How quickly do Republicans want you to be destracted by Terrorists abroad, so that you’ll forget about the terrorists here in this country…..the ones that go parading around with Tiki torches chanting “Jews will not replace us”.
What are those white supremesist afraid the Jews will do? Take their land?
Scummy Mums for Fascism have no comment about the Tiki torches.
@197 the fakers didn’t mind white guys dressed in tan kakhis and white shirts chanting “Jews will not replace us”
There are good people on both sides.
Bob needs a distraction.
He don’t want the “Jews to replace him”
Who are we kidding…..they don’t want the “Jews to replace them”
This is just political theater for them.
The American Taliban are just jealously upset with Hamas. They sure would love to have that kind of power.
Banning books is just a start.
They were silent about the Tiki Torch Monkeys.
Waiting for Darryl to open the DL thread so we can talk about what Nic Robertson shared with Jake Tapper tonite.
For “reasons” Clarence Thomas is big mad at the rest of his bretheren and sisteren for not taking up a case to reconsider the actual malice standard in Sullivan.
Can you imagine how fucked the entire right wing mediasphere would be if they couldn’t hide behind Sullivan?
To bad for Clarence that the critics of his sweeping corruption don’t actually need Sullivan, having the simple truth of their reporting as an unassailable defense.
Aww, The Atlantic‘s got a profile of Momala.
Well, she’s been a shittier vice president than any other in the history of the poll.
@ 204
For “reasons” Clarence Thomas is big mad at the rest of his bretheren and sisteren…
It’s brethren and sistren.
Bob Woodward would mock you. I’ll merely point out your errors.
Another reason Donald probably gave the intel on Israel to Russia to pass to Hamas…
The OTHER necessary distraction.
Evidence presented in a New York Courtroom that pretty much proves Grand Larceny and bank fraud. Knowing and intentional Grand Larceny and bank fraud during testimony from Trump’s convicted felon CFO Allen Weisselberg.
In 1994 Donald signed a legal document of residency for property taxes in NYC stating that his ‘palatial’ Penthouse apartment was 10,996 square feet. Presented as evidence afterward were MULTIPLE loan applications wherein the size of the apartment and therefore it’s value as collateral is 30,000 square feet. The most recent document was submitted AFTER a Forbes piece questioned the size and further evidence was presented that felon CFO Allen Weisselberg had instructed anyone contacted by Forbes that they were NOT to engage in any conversation about the size of the Penthouse.
Somehow, the super genius, best mind of his generation, knower of all things except the size of his hands and, you know….
Assumed his apartment accidentally tripled in size without any permits or construction. Huh, that’s odd. Surely it’s just a clerical error. An innocent mistake.
At current average sale value of $2000/sq foot in Manhattan the apartment would be worth roughly $21,000,000. But Donald put it up as collateral on a bunch of loans claiming it is worth $60M.
Yes, I get that real estate in 2017 when the most recent fraudulent loan application was filed is not the current $2000/sq foot but you get the idea.
Dude, you’re so fucked Donald. The DA is currently engaged in a civil fraud trial but she just dropped evidence of willful knowing CRIMINAL activity. The Federal sentence for Bank Fraud is up to 30 years in prison. 2016 is well within the statute of limitations.
But not a lot of traction on that story today because…well….that thing going on in the middle east.
@207
I’m old enough to remember when Jim Jordan was trying to subpoena Letitia James to see if she had any contact with Jack Smith because for some reason GYM thinks Federal and State Prosecutors aren’t allowed to speak to one another about evidence that might effect each other’s cases.
It was like….a month ago,
Need a Bellingham restaurant recommendation, please.
209,
Gas station sushi is good for you.
