For hurricane relief, Red Cross is much better at soliciting money donations than providing assistance.

How does an ideology surrender? What do you do with an individual(s) that will surrender, then just go back to committing atrocities as soon as they are able? These are low intelligence people taught that a different religion is inhuman and thus those people shouldn't be treated as anything other than the lowest animal.

I'd like to say just execute them on the spot but that'd wouldn't go over well in the eyes of public opinion today. What do you do? Lock them up indefinitely? Death penalty? Hope you can subvert their beliefs (doubtful)?

And serving horrible tasting gruel. Like soups and stuff to people who are dealing with hurricane damage. In the heat and humidity without power (AC) and they hand out soup.

They are always in front of news cameras. When the cameras leave so does the Red Cross.

Pathetic.

Don't read the op-ed piece in the WSJ about the atrocities committed on Israeli women by Hamas.

It is beyond comprehension and it has been under-reported for reasons that aren't clear. I guess because they are just too horrendous.

New report by @ISGAP1: Qatar ,the main funder of Hamas, is also the leading funder of American universities

This explains why @Harvard, @MIT, @Penn and many other top US universities have turned into Hamas mouthpieces.

Interesting sidebar. A friend's daughter is in Cairo right now for a work/study conference. Though not Jewish, her last name could sound Jewish to some. The people have been nothing but pleasant to her. This operation seems to be causing more upheaval in the US and Europe than in the Mideast.

I’ve talked to a few different people who have visited Egypt in the last couple of years. Both white and black. They all said the Egyptians are generally cool as frick and very accepting. Just watch out of the scammers at tourist sites.

It’s gotten to the point I have a hard time believing a single word. I have no doubt innocents (like many children) have been caught in the crossfire. But it’s clear the reports are trying really hard to tug on feelings as much as they can

You think this is BS propaganda?
quote:

A badly burned toddler screaming for the mother he doesn’t know is dead – and screaming because doctors do not have enough painkillers to relieve his suffering. An eight-year-old boy whose brain is exposed as bombing damaged parts of his skull. A teenage girl, her eye surgically removed, because every bone in her face is smashed. A three-year-old double amputee, whose severed limbs are laid out in a pink box beside him.

And in the background is the stench of rotting flesh as maggots “creep out of untreated wounds”.

This is the daily reality at the European Hospital inside the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, as described by veteran British war surgeon Tom Potokar, who works for the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).

While the United Nations warns that the humanitarian situation in Gaza is “apocalyptic”, the Israeli military has expanded a ferocious ground campaign from the north of the besieged territory into the south, where an estimated 1.9 million Palestinians have been displaced.

I've been to Cairo several times. It would be alright if it wasn't for the car horns. I swear to God from the time they put it in drive until they put on the parking brake they continuously beep their horn... every damn one of them.

As for all the bleeding heart stories...

Yes, obviously engineered. But remember, the deprivations the Palestinian people are suffering would end if just one thing would happen. Just one....

Hamas could surrender.

Nope, the is the effect after the causation! Guess they shouldn’t have elected shitty people nor tolerated shitty terrorist actions. Just imagine if they had stood up and toppled the Raghead terrorists or said Ragheads would surrender so their citizens don’t suffer. So don’t play this like it’s the IDF that caused this. The blame lands squarely on the Palestinians and their Hamas.

I haven't seen a total in a few days. It is lower than you probably think it would be, though.

That happens everywhere I've been except for Europe and America. They use their horns instead of blinkers and it is annoying as hell.
