This one blows my mind
buy this twisted logic one could say
The US was responsible for Pearl Harbor
Ukraine was responsible for Russia invading them
Poland was responsible for Nazi Germany invading them
I could go on, but I am sure you get my point.
Next mind blowing thing here is why would we have a âpalestine solidarity committeeâ operating in any American school, this is a people lead by a terrorist group.
Is it any wonder why college students are overwhelmingly support hamas, that is a problem and a big one as I am sure a few of these kids will someday hold office in our government
We are a broken country
But the answer as always is Jesus Christ
This one blows my mind.
Israel attacks USS Liberty
During the Six-Day War, Israeli aircraft and torpedo boats attack the USS Liberty in international waters off Egyptâs Gaza Strip. The intelligence ship, well-marked as an American vessel and only lightly armed, was attacked first by Israeli aircraft that fired napalm and rockets at the ship. The Liberty attempted to radio for assistance, but the Israeli aircraft blocked the transmissions. Eventually, the ship was able to make contact with the U.S. carrier Saratoga, and 12 fighter jets and four tanker planes were dispatched to defend the Liberty . When word of their deployment reached Washington, however, Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara ordered them recalled to the carrier, and they never reached the Liberty . The reason for the recall remains unclear.
Back in the Mediterranean, the initial air raid against the Liberty was over. Nine of the 294 crew members were dead and 60 were wounded. Suddenly, the ship was attacked by Israeli torpedo boats, which launched torpedoes and fired artillery at the ship. Under the command of its wounded captain, William L. McGonagle, the Liberty managed to avert four torpedoes, but one struck the ship at the waterline. Heavily damaged, the ship launched three lifeboats, but these were also attackedâa violation of international law. Failing to sink the Liberty, which displaced 10,000 tons, the Israelis finally desisted. In all, 34 Americans were killed and 171 were wounded in the two-hour attack. In the attackâs aftermath, the Liberty managed to limp to a safe port.

How about sticking with reality.
Stephen King Roasts Marjorie Taylor Greeneâs Claim âNot One Single American Dollarâ Has Been Spent on Israel-Hamas War
Predictably, plenty of people were quick to correct her, including acclaimed horror novelist Stephen King. He replied, âAre you tripping? Weâve given them aid and armaments for decades.â
ââand not one single American dollarâ is false, since WW2, US has given Israel ~$260b in aid, much of it went to the military. Plus another $10b for their Iron Dome defense system (which they are currently using at this war). The grants acquire the buying of American tech.â
American aid to Israel has become a hot topic as the war between Israel and Hamas continues. In 2022 alone, the United States committed more than $3.3 billion in foreign aid to Israel, and a full 99.7% of that amount went to the countryâs military.
There is an abundance of information available when it comes to breaking down the aid that Israel receives from the U.S. Since the end of World War II, Israel has been the âlargest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance.â The United States has sent Israel at least $158 billion in âbilateral assistance and missile defense funding.â
The countries re-signed their third 10-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in 2016, which secured such funding through 2028. In this new agreement, the U.S. will supply at least $38 billion of military aid.
Israel has also been able to buy 50 F-35 Joint Strike Fighters, the Department of Defenseâs fifth-generation stealth aircraft, and is the first other country to have done so. The purchase was funded with U.S. assistance.
Dennis, interesting little fact largely not known by Americans - the commander who instigated the burning of Washington was a guy called Robt Ross. The wiki article refers to him as an âIrish Officerâ but he was of course a British Officer who happened to be born in Ireland.
Anyways how the present can link to the past - there is an image of a monument, in recent years renovated, to Ross - I drive past it most Sundays though never felt the need to stop and visit - long story short the monument is never attacked or damaged yet stands in an area that would not be supportive of that history - reason is there is a peace agreement in place.

Interesting take @Dennis3450
There is a quote we have known for many decades - but which now seems to have been largely eliminated - the import of course is that war is hugely profitable for âBig Moneyâ âŚ

My mother told of war - in 1938 her father announced - âget on your knees for there is going to be world war, the Aurora Borealis is in the sky over the (Mourne) mountains.â
My mother recalled the sense of hopelessness, that there was nothing much she could do except pray.
When the war was over she was now 18 and plenty she could do - she got on the ferry and headed off to England to be a nurse.
Will there be another world war?
For me - Iâm going to follow my grandfathers advice - itâs the best that I can do.

Youâre funny. You must be researching all the crime stats on your end too to confirm the reports that âcrime is rampantâ and not just taking the talking headsâ word for it.
Yea right.
@samewise⌠What are you on aboutâŚ?? It reads like a brain fart.âŚ
Sooo⌠No proof of the âElites⌠Closing down stores that arenât in high crime areasâŚâ

I mean I can say the same thing. Whereâs your proof? Iâm waiting⌠oh wait you posted an ABC News Video link. I guess those are allowed.
Maybe you need some fresh air. Youâre about the most grumpy person on here.
Whereâs my proofâŚ?? Iâm not the one making ridiculous, unproveable claimsâŚ
And yes I provided a mainstream media link to the crime waves in these cities⌠A left biased news network reporting on left biased crimes⌠Itâs what gives the article credence⌠Clowns calling out other ClownsâŚ
I get plenty of fresh air⌠Maybe I am Grumpy⌠But I refuse to suffer fools⌠So when I see rubbish being posted in this a Political thread⌠Posted as fact⌠You can be sure Iâll call it out.
You were simply asked to backup a statement with data, articles you made about the US Economy and then spent the next 3 posts running around in a circle waving your little Cabbage Patch armsâŚ

Canât we all just get along, lol
I would say there are a variety of reasons stores are closing outside of HIGH crime area, Iâm not sure if Elites is doing that. Some companies are in bankruptcy proceedings, while others say theyâre cutting costs. Some are adapting store formats to meet changing shopping patterns etcâŚ
You got the truth police over here telling everybody his âtruthâ on his daily walkabout. Shutting down a conversation. No opinions allowed.
Maybe you can hand out a chill pill.
@samewise You now have two disagreeing posters agreeing to disagree with youâŚ
I rest my case⌠âTelling everybody his âtruthâ on his daily walkaboutâŚâ
