    War in Israel

    Israel issues warnings to civilians to GTFO and goes out of their way to limit civilian casualties because of international pressure. Hamas tells them to stay and earn martyr status either because they want to use them as human shields or because they genuinely think this is a glorious way to die that pleases God. Hamas is responsible for the deaths of both the Israeli civilians they kill directly and the Palestinian civilians they put in harm's way by building bunkers and tunnels in schools and hospitals.

    War in Israel

    Palestinians and Jordanians are the same people but after the PLO tried a couple of times to assassinate the king of Jordan, he rained hell on them, indiscriminately killed their civilians and pushed them out of his country. Egypt doesn't want Palestinians either. Nor does anybody else.

    Oh, good grief. Wanna open Turkey to 2M Gaza refugees? No? How about 100K? 5K? 200?

    [** Official President Joe Biden Thread **]

    Biden's approval rating went down among Democrats recently, likely for doing the right thing by way of Israel. as a Lions fan, it feels identical to watching Kirk Cousins get a season ending injury in Minnesota. I'm anxious to vote Biden out of office despite agreeing with him on Ukraine and Israel, and this decrease in support helps with that, but Democrats overall just really, really suck ass.
  5. I don't know what Tim does for a living, I've known him for months not years, but I always pegged him to be a willing cog in the wheel with an insider corporate/government job. A mouthpiece on behalf of the left-wing power structure machine. To think of him as outside the establishment doesn't seem to jibe, he seems way more partial to the Pelosi left than the Bernie left.

    The way you guess man, it would scare the bejeebers out of me. I gotta eliminate letters as fast as I can and am always playing it safe.

    War in Israel

    Due to changes in life, I'm too busy to post as much as I use to, but everything I see KSB post is spot on the money for how I feel on these issues. There is no moral equivalence. Hamas targets any Israeli civilian or military. Israel goes out of their way to warn Palestinian civilians to move and hold back from inflicting more casualites than necessary. Hamas uses this to their advantage, telling people not to move when attacked, hiding behind or underneath civilians and using schools and hospitals as the base of operations. As for the Palestinian people - they stay put and get bombed. Is it because they are more afraid of Hamas, they believe that dying this way demonstrates their religious piety and is honorable to God, because they have no where else to go, or some combination of factors? Whatever... Hamas is using their own people as human shields. Israelis aren't willing to live under threat from terrorists. No Muslim country (let alone anybody else) wants Palestinian refugees. It's a mess.

  9. Withdrawing was the right move but it's hard to give him any credit for doing so after watching it get carried out as ineptly as possible.

    Chargers got off to a bad start but are putting it together against the Bears (which isn't saying much). Going into the season they looked like a solid contender for a playoff spot. It may still happen. Chicago, for their part, isn't doing their rookie QB any favors by dropping perfectly thrown balls to wide open receivers in the end zone.

    The Black Hebrew Israelites are the guys that taunted the Covington Catholic kids. The Palestinians endorse Hamas... bad vs bad... whatever...
  13. Maybe you'll trust Cenk's insight since he is of the left and has personal experience working in the MSM. It's only 6 minutes and his 2nd point in the OP is right on the money.
  14. Why 32% still hasn't yet given up on the lack of impartiality in corporate is media is more concerning. How deliberately stubborn and clueless do you have to be?

    Green Bay looked like total cr@p again, especially the WR corps, although there was signs of life in the second half. The big thing in this game is Cousins' ankle, diagnosis over the TV is unreliable but that looked really serious, something to keep an eye on.

    Congrats to Carolina. Interesting subtext there with the two rookie QBs that went 1 and 2 going head-to-head. .

    Vikings hold off on a 4th down deep. Cousins done for the game, non-contact injury, and cannont put weight on the ankle. Replacement named Hall fumbles ball on his second career snap deep in his own territory giving ball right back to Packers. Packers receivers continue to suck ass.

    Cousins may have a serious ankle injury.

    This is the best team they've ever had, at worst the same as the '91 Lions. Going into the season, I thought the floor would be to win the division and a home playoff win. The ceiling being winning the whole thing, hopefully they don't see Baltimore there. Although they got blown out last week, they are still solid. They are also seriously dinged up. Anyway, I thought the worst of the schedule was behind them although the Vikings are looking for real after all, if so, that'd be two more worrisome games. Need some help too. If Washington wins, they can go into the bye 6-2 by beating Vegas at home on Monday night. That'd put them in a tie for home field advantage going into the second half of the season. Hopefully get healthy for the second half run, CJGJ's season may not be over after all. Ideally play the winner of Philly-49ers at home in the NFC championship game. Could use Houston getting back to get pass rush opposite Hutchinson and maybe a trade deadline CB to replace Moseley whose gone for the season.

    Boos raining down in Lambeau as the Packers offense leave the field yet again without registering a first down. This is not a 10-0 game. I'll try that streaming link.

    back to back 15 yard personal fouls on the Packers, first was BS, second had to be called... bunch of clowns. Minny gets a TD this time. 7-0, should be 10-0. It's not been close. I wanna watch the Redskins put the Lions back in first place, not watch 4th rate Green Bay get stomped.

    Packers pass catchers are focking clowns and are lucky Minny missed thier FG. I wanna see the Redskins.

    Trannies know they can get away with doing anything they want no matter how outrageous, meanwhile everybody in leftoid jurisdictions are expected to roll over, kiss their ass, and accomodate them.

    I wanna watch Eagles/Redskins but Fox is giving us Vikings/Packers. The Vikings may not suck, a lot of their losses were close scoring games filled with Minny turnovers, so I'm so rooting for the Packers. As I've been doing all year, I'll continue to root for whomever plays against the Eagles and 49ers. This week, Redskins and Bengals.
