What is your question? The simplistic IDF vs. Hamas thing that you asked? It's such a dumb straw man. Be better than that.

This is wrong as well.
quote:

You don’t plan, pay for, and actually pull off an attack like this with a timeline of a few weeks.
This was years of planning and saving and logistics culminating in an attack around an important anniversary. The money 100% will be used for further attacks on Israel and funding terrorism. But that money didn’t have shite to do with this attack.


Per Jennifer Griffen

quote:

The $6 billion is still currently held in a Qatari bank account with U.S. Treasury oversight, I’m told. The money came from Iranian oil sales to South Korea and did not include U.S. taxpayer dollars. NK spokesperson Adrian Watson said in a statement, ‘Not a single cent from these funds has been spent and when it is spent it can only be spent on things like food and medicine for the Iranian people. These funds have absolutely nothing to do with the horrific attacks today, and this is not the time to spread disinformation.’ In fact, the US has pre-positioned $2 billion worth of weapons stored in Israel. I’m told the US will likely release some of these pre-positioned weapons to assist Israel in the coming days.

Why are we resorting to name calling?

Let me say this a different way since you know where I'm going and apparently don't want to answer.

Is it your position the IDF is specifically and generally ordered to kill elderly people waiting for a bus, to rape women in their homes, and to kill children on sight?

I can agree the dead don't care but we certainly can differentiate.

I'm under the impression they are not, but like I said, I can be enlightened.

I don't even understand this "getting involved" debate. "We" are already involved, the question now is to what extent does that involvement grow? We don't know.


Hopefully our involvement is as minimal as possible.

We’ve pissed away enough money in Ukraine, we’re paying salaries and benefits of Ukrainians.

You started off with saying that I was engaging in "both side-ism" and that I "know what [I'm] doing", and then joining with Pirate Douche who is saying that I support terrorists. You'll forgive me if your new appeal to good faith debate is met with a little disdain.

The IDF has bad discipline. They routinely shoot at or otherwise harass Palestinian civilians, just for the sake of it. One of my mentors, who worked at the embassy was told by a conscript that ‘I would shoot you if there weren’t cameras here.’ This was in the West Bank. The man was a devout Christian and his experience in Israel had left him soured. He deplored the way the Israelis treated the Christian populace.

None of these are name calling.
Calling me an "idiot" by comparing me to Pirate King being " generally an idiot" is name calling.

I never said that nor implied it.

I mean that's not shocking. Jews dont like Christians.

Only thing that's weird is the protestant religions being infatuated with the rebuilding of the third temple thus the major dick sucking done by evangelicals in the US

@ Darth

Kind of stands to reason why no money has been spent yet.

Bubba, "we" are endeavoring to police the world. Just take that Jennifer Griffen Xweet for example. Part of the debate today hinges on how "we" have released funds to Iran. Those funds, if we go on the face of that tweet, belonged to Iran and was gained in an oil deal between them and South Korea. "We" brokered a deal to hold that money by way of a Qatari bank. "We" have earmarked a bunch of military shite for Israel that "we" are now deciding when and how much of it to release to them.

"We" have our fingerprints all over this entire shitshow. Now, we get to watch and see how much deeper we get.

I doubt it has. Still, it’s a terrible idea to give the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism $6 billion no matter what so-called safeguards are put in place to ensure they don’t use it for terrorism. At the least all they have to do is use that money to pay for domestic stuff and free up the money earmarked for that to go to funding terrorist organizations like Hamas.

Can’t imagine why someone would think you’re siding with the Hamas terrorists with posts like these today during an actual terrorist attack.

quote:

Future Israelis didn't mind terrorism when they were blowing up British to get their little Zionist outpost.

just attacked by prehistoric terrorists.

OK.


quote:

Hamas is not ISIS. ...


quote:

Yes, I know. Another fun fact, the Palestinians as a whole were never offered this option. And not all Arab Israelis are so happy with their second class citizenship. You should talk to some and ask them. I have.


quote:

Both sides in this conflict kill innocent civilians. ...


quote:

I hope the Israeli response is swift and massive.

Why do you care so much?


quote:

I don’t get the circle jerks that Americans engage in over Israel.


quote:

Videos of Hamas driving Israeli citizens: old women, teenage girls into captivity. It's bad.

Post a link.

US needs to support Israel

No we don’t.
