I've had similar thoughts. Where was all the protesting when Zelensky was doing photo shoots for Vanity Fair and going to Hollywood award shows while his people were being slaughtered? 

Who knows what one of our American heros was doing overseas while the young men back home stared at the line in front of them awaiting the redcoats return volley.  In the end a foreign power directly came to our aid.  The aid provided is nearly equivalent of NATO implementing a no fly zone over Ukraine.

As for Zelensky he has been at the front several times with artillery rounds thumping in the background..  He was just a comedian who became a politician by the frustration of people in his country. He is unwashed in the eyes of the elite. Not acceptable example.

You may destroy Hamas, but what's left may be just as bad, if not worse, as those remaining Palestinians will see Israel as the enemy still...and the cycle of violence continues.

Destroy worked for Nazi German and Imperial Japan,  Both allies today in this insanity.  Anything short of that you get things like the 38th parallel and perpetual conflict.

The Russians bark about their nukes.  Ptown has posted several times about the massive amount of nukes the Russians have.  It takes three nukes to knock out Russia today.  St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Volgograd.  They will not ever pull the nuclear trigger until that geography changes. I grew up during the cold war when Russia was in control of all of eastern Europe and large parts of Asia.  They want it all back so can have back that power. 

Thing is the Russians are sending their minorities and idiots from their far east to be butchered in an effort to overwhelm the front. When the areas around the three Russian cities I mention experience war and I mean their children in mass sent to the front things change.

One has to ask himself.  Why the campus protest rage on Israel while Russia openly targets civilians literally razing many cites to the ground.  Why do these "protesters" bring down US flags and raise a foreign one in its place.  We all know .

I never wanted the US to finance either the Ukraine war or the Israel vs Hamas war. Withholding intelligence will just have the result of more indiscriminate violence upon civilians, which goes against part of which the Dems have stated what their grievance is. The other part is, of course, that Israel doesn't have the right to exist (but not many have openly admitted that yet, as far as I know). 

But that's ok! We will just give more money to Ukraine to keep up the civilian kill count! 

History can not be ignored.  The current war in Europe is major.  Russia like Germany was is on a total war footing today.  The mix of fuel that created the terrors of Europe during WWII are seen today with our own eyes.  Once again there is a dictator in Europe bent on reclaiming a lost empire.  Hamas and Iran bent on the elimination of the jews.  In Asia like Japan this time its China.  All these ideologies and the powers behind them must be stopped before they unite as they did in the past.

Hey uh

Is the NY prosecutor /trying/ to throw this trial?

No.  He was just pressured by people to make it happen.

This is a government controlled debate.  Trump will play ball to make that point.

This falls flat without an audience. 

There is now over a million military casualties in this war.  Civilians will be approaching a 100k nearly all Ukrainians.  The west convinced them to give up the nukes for peace.  Now a great war is at their door step.

A great dictator has arisen in Europe.  Bent on waging war to achieve his goals.  Openly leveling cities with indiscriminate weapons.  Using banned chemical weapons to dislodge entrenched soldiers on the front.

But on campus they are lathered up about the Jewish problem.  Like one in the past he may have an opening here.

The Israelis are about to finish the job in Rafah in the south.  But the cries are out now for them to stop what they did not start.  Maybe we get more "protesters" to block streets.  A sure way to win people over to your side.s.

I guess it works for the current government.  No more offensive weapons if the Israelis finish job in Rafah.  Near defeat militarily yet a great propaganda victory for Hamas.  Bad things coming soon. 

Took the rest of the week off.  Grabbed a 15pk of Miller lite.  Got the card.  I am 52 bald with mostly gray hair.  No more reading the date on my state issued drivers license.  Got to be scanned.  Its 10:30 in the morning.  I guess I am now in the states database of potential drunkards.  Clearly Speedway is in bed with the government.  I have been resisting it but I am becoming a Bell Buddy.

I am going to shut you down just get me some food and a glass of water. Wrist bands instead of gold stars this will not end well.  When the shit hits the fan we know who wins.

Columbia had a hard warning time at 2pm yesterday.

Others give the hard warning with examples of 10-20 in the fed pen.

So how long do they let this shit go on on all of these campuses? Hopefully they all see a drastic drop in future enrollment. 

As long as it takes for them to get their way.  I am wondering if I am the only person not seeing the elephant in the room here.  You got one faction of people pissed at government going to the source of their issue.  The seat of government power.  They break some glass, crawl on the walls, do a walk through, and leave. There was some scuffling.  But they were quickly hunted down like dogs and given substantial prison sentences.

The other faction.  The one where we wonder how long we let this shit go on.  Their target is civilians. Laying in the street.  The goal to disrupt civilian life.  Most of these civilians are at 0 on the give shit meter for their gripe they just want to go about their lives. In the current cases we got people dropping an intifada banner out the window and waving foreign flags.

The media has an affect on all of us.  I feel like I have gone to the dark side. But I know I haven't.

I just can’t imagine being a parent and raising these little losers. I fully support the left’s child free ideas. Stop having kids please, it’s for the climate!

These people allow me to have a little respect for the J6 mob.  They disrupted the lives of our precious public servants and there was hell to pay.  The target of these people are innocent bystanders.  Civilians.  Unfortunately no one will ever face these clowns on the battle field. 

Once the final solution to the the Jewish question is resolved gay pride parades can commence in Gaza and abortion clinics can be opened.

He kind of had Robert E. Lee confused with an Irish pirate “Don’t fight uphill me boys.”

Respectfully disagree.  He had Lee confused with Longstreet and the "my" "me" confusion with Pickets quote from the movie was from the Irish sergeant on the Union side.

Lol, I read about that. The last couple days have been GREAT for our two prospective "leaders". Biden with that story and Trump with some bizarre Gettysburg story where Robert E. Lee was very against fighting uphill "me boys". Combine them into one person and you might have 60% of a working brain. Might.

Biden was elected to the US Senate in 1972 the same year I was born.  He feels the need to project hardships.  Trump on the other hand is confused by his recolction of  watching "Gods and Generals" Longstreet did not want to fight uphill and Picket fell off his horse and got back up wondering what happened to "his boys" and Lee failed.

People are still pushing Gavin Newsome for a dem presidency (replace Biden). The idea has escaped Twitter and is now being talked about and/or pushed on YouTube, Rumble and all the other social medias.

Not going to happen.  Too many people behind the scenes with a lot of power that would be lost.  Plus Gavin does not have an uncle that was shot down during WWII over New Guinea and devoured by cannibals.

Trump also pulled out of the Iran deal. Say what you want about it, but Iran is much closer to a nuclear weapon today than they would have been if the agreement was still in place. 

Nah Iran is just a little more out in the open about it.  Any concessions they can get from the West help move things along.

People like the option and do not want government restricting them. 

People love government restrictions.  Just not for them.

With rare exception, not true.

Millions believe otherwise.  Judgement of an individual in this country is not left to one person.  It requires a unanimous decision of many.  

Leaving this issue to the smaller forms of government makes sense to me.
