you have an opinion on everything, what's your take I think you should ask the who wanted to defund the police, liberally open borders to immigration and called for the removal of all guns from society what their take is now that Hamas and the Taliban have called for terrorism and murder around the world. I think you should buy them a history book so they don't make the same mistake again. On second thought, maybe you could use one too.

I believe I asked you, so what is your take punchy I think you should get a history book and learn a few things because whatever your beliefs are, they're probably wrong again.

Facebook removing posts about the Israel / Palestinian conflict for "glorifying terrorism" when all the news agency did was interview a local in Palestine. You thought this grand censorship campaign wasn't going to happen again? Social Media will continue to censor the internet until you all stand up and say no. Especially if you oppose the narrative of the people trying to push threw their agenda. www.rebelnews.com/meta_censors_rebel_news_coverage_of_hamas_brutality?

This might interest you Israel approved new emergency regulations Wednesday that could pave the way for censoring Al Jazeera, the Qatar-based broadcaster that Israel has accused of bias and propaganda that harms its national security.

Facebook scrubbed a news agency that interviewed Hamas victims saying they were "glorifying terrorism". True story. But the reason they are allowed to do this is because of people (like yourself) who tried to silence everyone who had an opposing view to your own. The publics fear mongering and snitching has enabled politicians and the media to CONTINUE to manipulate the news and the facts so that us normal people literally have NO idea what's really going. www.rebelnews.com/meta_censors_rebel_news_coverage_of_hamas_brutalitySo as you can see, the effects of the pandemic's measures on society are now being applied to all areas of our lives.

Let me start out by stating that ANY TERRORIST ATTACK IS ABHORRENT AND WRONG. There is never an excuse or justification for killing innocent people and Hamas' attack is just that: an unjustified killing of innocent people. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have long been an avid student and observer of the Middle East. I would peg the mid 90's as when my interest began strong enough that I would actively start learning about it. I used to have the Jerusalem Post delivered to my door in 1997-98 just to stay abreast of current events. I think they even still owe me $92 after I cancelled my subscription. I've read not only the sacred religious texts from that area but have followed the history, the politics, the culture and even biographies of many of the people involved in the 2000 year history of that land. Many people may not be aware, but surrounding nations have MANY TIMES attacked Israel with surprise attacks. The largest was the Yom Kippur war, when surrounding arab nations launched a surprise attack on Israel on a religious holiday: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yom_Kippur_War

The land of Israel covers an area of about 8500 square miles. That is quite literally smaller than New Hampshire. And yet Israel has a military as powerful as any nation, including nuclear weapons, the greatest intelligence agency on earth (they routinely help super powers capture war criminals) and a surveillance system that doesn't allow a fly to land on it's borders without anyone knowing. Israel currently spends about 4.5% of it's GDP on it's military. That is near the top of the list (15th I believe) and above even the US. data.worldbank.org/indicator/MS.MIL.XPND.GD.ZS?locations=IL&most_recent_value_desc=trueNot only that, but because of their small population, every single eligible person must serve in the military. It's normal to see men and women walking around with military garb and guns. Being such a small country, and being surrounded by enemies on every side that are sworn to wipe them out, and being backed fully by the strongest military might in the world, Israel's surveillance systems must border on other-worldly technology. I heard an interview by a former ex military who worked in Israel and he said that a fly couldn't land without someone noticing it. Imagine New Hampshire having nuclear capabilities but not being able to prevent anyone from landing on their soil and seizing them? Yeah, no. And let's not forget that post 9/11 EVERYONE became a terror suspect. So I have a VERY HARD TIME believing that they got caught in a surprise attack.

As you can see, the facts just don't reasonably line up. But what really tipped the scales to me, was that Trump had negotiated The Abraham Accords, which was the first time since 1994 that Israel established relations with an Arab state. That doesn't sound like big news to a Westerner, but for someone who has followed the Middle East since 1994 it was an incredibly big deal. It was literally unheard of. Follow me.... What Trump did is he strongly campaigned against terrorism and war. But he didn't campaign using weapons, he campaigned using words by speaking to representatives from almost every ARAB COUNTRY INCLUDING SAUDI ARABIA. Think about that. SAUDI ARABIA IS MECCA. They are the heart and soul of the Islamic people. In the West, as America goes, so goes the world.
In Islam, as Arabia goes, so goes the Arab and Muslim world.Have any of you ever heard Trump's speech to the Gulf Cooperation Council? Do you know who the GCC is? From Wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_Cooperation_CouncilThe Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf[2] (Arabic: مجلس التعاون لدول خلیج العربية), also known as the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC; Arabic: مجلس التعاون الخليجي), is a regional, intergovernmental, political, and economic union comprising Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.[3][4] The council's main headquarters is located in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.[5] The Charter of the GCC was signed on 25 May 1981, formally establishing the institution.[6] Listen to this ANTI-TERROSIM, ANTI-DEATH, ANTI-WAR speech Trump gave to all the leaders.
Now ask yourself, does this sound like a demented man who is going to start World War 3?

The reality is that any sort of peace agreement MUST BEGIN WITH ARABIA and the ARAB states involved.
If Arabia is not involved, it would be like signing a peace agreement between every Western country and China, but with the US not being involved. Arabia MUST BE INVOLVED. And so the Abraham Accords got two nations to sign on WITH ARABIA'S BLESSING. It was an unprecedented event that should have been built on. Every Arab nation would have begun to oppose the killing of Hamas down this road. Instead, the Abraham Accords were buried. Trump was smeared, and the US is now headed into TWO SEPARATE WARS (Russia / Ukraine and Israel / Palestine >>> Iran) under the Biden administration with more war looming. What should have been a shining, golden feather in a world of war, from the 1st president in recent history to NOT WAGE A NEW WAR became buried under a tsunami of media lies, manipulation and propaganda. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Remember, I posted on here OVER TWO YEARS AGO that the US would be going to war with Iran the-comic-book-forum.boards.net/post/85429/threadAnd earlier this year I'd stated that the US would eventually go to war against these 4 countries: Russia Iran China North Korea We are now half way there. Why is the US going to war against these nations? For terrorism? For democracy? Nope. The US is going to war against these countries because these four countries are the foundation of BRICS. BRICS is trying to destabilize the US dollar by removing it as the World Trade Currency. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS{Wiki info on BRICS} BRICS is an intergovernmental organization comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. It was formed in 2010 by the addition of South Africa to its predecessor called BRIC.[1] In August 2023, at the 15th BRICS Summit, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that Argentina, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates had been invited to join the organisation. Full membership is scheduled to take effect on 1 January 2024.[2][3] Currently the BRICS nations encompass about 27% of the world's land surface and 42% of the global population. Brazil, Russia, India, and China are among the world's ten largest countries by population, area, and GDP (PPP). All five states are members of the G20, with a combined nominal GDP of US$28 trillion (about 27% of the gross world product), a total GDP (PPP) of around US$57 trillion (33% of global GDP PPP), and an estimated US$4.5 trillion in combined foreign reserves (as of 2018).[5][6]
The BRICS were originally identified for the purpose of highlighting investment opportunities and had not been a formal intergovernmental organization.[7] Since 2009, they have increasingly formed into a more cohesive geopolitical bloc, with their governments meeting annually at formal summits and coordinating multilateral policies. Bilateral relations among BRICS are conducted mainly on the basis of non-interference, equality, and mutual benefit.[8]
The BRICS nations are considered the foremost geopolitical rival to the G7 bloc of leading advanced economies, implementing competing initiatives such as the New Development Bank, the BRICS Contingent Reserve Arrangement, the BRICS payment system, the BRICS Joint Statistical Publication and the BRICS basket reserve currency.
