Brother, when I used to have discussions about legalizing gay marriage, I had conservatives try to shout me down by accusing me of advocating for pedophillic marriage,


Has pedophilia gone up or down in the last 10 years. Has child indoctrination gone up or down in the last 10 years? Were trannies reading to 3rd graders all across the country 10 years ago? Were gay couples adopting children at the rate they are now?

Gay marriage opened the floodgates to allof this deviant bullshite.

I agree that this is a remarkable accomplishment. He was/is the right man for this job. It took someone who did not care about playing both sides. He took the right side, gave it the right support, and used his leverage at the right time.

I certainly do not agree with all of his policies and actions, but he deserves all the credit and laurels for this.

I've enjoyed watching this pivot. Those fighting legalization of gay marriage said that, if we let consenting same sex adults marry, it means that adults can marry children, people can marry animals, and people can marry inanimate objects. None of that happened. Not only did none of it happen, no one even argued for it to happen. Hell, even the one "slippery slope" issue I conceded, plural adult marriage, has seen absolutely zero movement whatsoever.

Instead of opponents of gay marriage acknowledging that every single one of their slippery slope doomsday scenarios were dead fricking wrong, they pivot to claiming that trans issues were the slippery slope they were afraid of all along, which is absurd.

Now, can one argue that freeing up activists from the gay marriage issue gave them time to pursue other issues, like trans issues? Sure. But that has nothing to do with slippery slopes. Literally no one is citing to the legality of gay marriage when they argue in favor of trans issues.

And at which point you take the position that we should advocate against legitimate rights just as a bulwark against having to argue against illegitimate rights, you might want to do some soul searching regarding where your principles lie.

Ah, yes, Israelis and Jews are blowing up concerts full of little girls in Manchester, running over people in Nice, and flying planes into buildings. Hamas is Islam, and Islam is Hamas.

It has everything to do with slippery slopes when you pander to and acknowledge sexual deviancy as normal and just.

I’ll ask you this, do you believe that married gay couples should be allowed to adopt children?

Which assumes homosexuality is abnormal and unjust. Hell, let's just call a spade a spade here and say "sinful". Which would be the minority position in this country.

As long as they can pass the same screening as heterosexual couples, sure.

With that said, I know you're about to launch into a screed that has absolutely nothing to do with this thread, so feel free to do so at your leisure. I likely won't respond, as again, it has nothing to do with this thread, but you do you

That would be the women hostages they raped and murdered. They only released male hostages today.

They should absolutely eradicate Hamas. Every single one of those terrorist.

Known terrorist Hamas combatants will be allowed to stay in Gaza as long as they promise not to be terrorists anymore. 250 life sentence prisoners, most all of them known terrorist Hamas members/combatants will be released into Gaza and allowed to stay. More than 1,700 people taken into custody by Israel/IDF since October 7, 2023 will be released into Gaza and allowed to stay.

The UN, the same UN that worked hand-in-hand with Hamas terrorists for a couple decades, the same UN that still doesn't recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization, will run point on relief and recovery efforts. No demand has been made nor requirement mandated that the UN formally denounce its relationship with known terrorists.

The "20 point plan" requires that we, along with our partners, provide for the security of any "terror-free zones" within Gaza if Hamas (or any other group) breaks its pinky promise to not be terrorists any longer. That is laid out in the plan, that the new governing body the ISF will provide security to these areas. So, when shite goes sideways again we will be tasked with both protecting Gazans and supplying the weaponry used to kill them. That is nothing new, of course, but it usually doesn't get spelled out so blatantly.

All Hamas members, along with any other terrorist "factions" must promise not to be involved in any way with future governance in Gaza. There are several other associated "factions". Hell, most Gazans of leadership age likely belong to one of those "factions". Who is left to actually lead in the future? Who meets the qualifications. Remember, Hamas isn't the only terror group that fought within Gaza during this war.

At least we have a new "Board of Peace" that Donald made himself the chairman of (that certainly won't fall on future administrations) that will "handle the funding" for the "redevelopment of Gaza" until the Palestinians can get their collective shite together.

Thanks for writing what I was avoiding writing. I suspect that you are correct. They wanted no living witnesses to expose their depravity.
But even dead bodies can give their own form of testimony.

The newest development is now the more radical sects of Hamas are actively killing off the less radical, or those they believe to have some involvement, true, or otherwise, with Israel. If that continues you'll be left with a small extremely radical Hamas contingent that will continue it's terror in the region in the future.

I think the question will be whether they can fight without outside support. Basically every major Islamic power in the region has conceded that October 7th was catastrophic to their interests. Further, I think they know that, if Hamas continues being a problem, Israel will finish taking Gaza and shift to the West Bank. While I don’t know that they care about Gaza, they care very deeply about the West Bank, as it’s their toehold to access Jerusalem.

Which brings us back to the original intent of this thread. Trump did an outstanding job of making the rest of the middle east get the picture. It is also why the missile strike in Doha was the key to this whole thing. Trump was able to tell the muslims that he was losing control of Netanyahu (whether true or not) and that if they didn't want missiles exploding in their cities that they needed to take an active role in curbing terrorism.
