If they wanted to murder everyone in Gaza, they'd have done it the first week. This past week Hamas bombed a station Israel set up to provide aid to Palestinians. Hamas doesn't care about Palestinian civilians, certainly not as much as Israel. You have a Gen Z, TikTok level understanding of the situation.

"From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free” is a rallying cry for terrorist groups and their sympathizers, from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) to Hamas, which called for Israel’s destruction in its original governing charter in 1988 and was responsible for the October 7, 2023 terror attack on Israeli civilians, murdering over 1,200 people in the single deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust. It is also a common call-to-arms for pro-Palestinian activists, especially student activists on college campuses. It calls for the establishment of a State of Palestine from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, erasing the State of Israel and its people. Another phrase “Globalize the Intifada,” which uses the Arabic word for “uprising” or “shaking off,” also calls for widespread violence against both Israelis and Jews across the globe (see “Globalize the Intifada”). Sometimes the Palestinian flag emoji is used as shorthand for these phrases to spam social media posts related to Jews, whether having to do with Israel or not. There is of course nothing antisemitic about advocating for Palestinians to have their own state. However, calling for the elimination of the Jewish state, praising Hamas or other entities who call for Israel’s destruction, or suggesting that the Jews alone do not have the right to self-determination, is antisemitic. https://www.ajc.org/translatehate/From-the-River-to-the-Sea#:~:text=noun \ 'fruhm 'thə ',River to the Mediterranean Sea

Read my first paragraph again. It is a call for intifada. I conceded that some Jews would likely survive the violent war. What I left unsaid was: congrats, you win the semantic Olympics, Squis Lite! Some Jews would survive! It's pretty much mostly peaceful by your centrist standards!
-
It's a call for intifada, Squistion Lite. A violent uprising. So yes, some may survive. I don't believe I said anything about all of the Jews, including those that don't live in Israel. But Hamas has; it is their singular charter to kill all Jews both in Israel and the world. So all those who support Hamas implicitly support that. To my knowledge that is the sole charter of Hamas. If you are aware of other goals, please educate me. If not, then it is not a stretch to equate the two. Otherwise, this whole extreme of "everyone" and "noone" is stupid and bores me, so I'll move on.

I don't know if there is precedent, but if not, I'd vote for you picking a replacement now. Losing the #2 overall pick sucks.

I would be surprised if I said "every." Such extremes are in the wheelhouse of folks like @The Real timschochet. I'm more a nuance kinda guy. If you have a link though, I'd be happy to read it.

Apparently for some, it is. Especially since that is the initial meaning. I'm merely saying that your position that NONE of these kids mean it is, well, pretty asinine.

You mean cause Shuffler DNP'd, right? If I lost someone else I'll edjr.

Also: https://www.insidehighered.com/news/quick-takes/2024/04/29/columbia-bars-protest-leader-who-threatened-zionists I particularly like how he pulled the double intersectionality card at the end (queer and black) to attempt to shift the narrative to others.

Easiest prediction in the world would be the Lefties here moving from Phase 1 (it isn't happening) to Phase 2 (it happens but it's rare).

For all those who say the protesters aren't calling for death to Jews, here's one from MIT. I know, I know, @MDCwill tell me that MIT kids are too stoopid to know what "death to zionists" means. https://x.com/TaliaKhan_MIT/status/1787337147441107301

Dood, you are going full Squistion semantics on this. You are doing some sort of 4D autism differentiating that we can't see. In your link, Question 1 and figure 1, a vast majority of Palestinians from both Gaza and WB supported the attack. Question 7, figures 12 and 13, a majority of Palestinians from both locations support Hamas leadership AFTER the war.

Terminal A is quite nice these days. And we've done the train thing enough to almost know what we are doing. On plane, about to take off. See you gents tomorrow! Oh, and to Lager: doing round 5 in reverse order might take away most/all of the benefit of drafting early.

I'll take Rory. Wife says it's a bold choice. He reminds her of Tin Cup, high risk/reward. She knows sports, which is why I her. I'm in the Newark Airport heading back to Phoenix and have no idea when I'll get home, or wake up tomorrow. So I don't want to hold things up.

Same. I've enjoyed many of his movies, but whenever I see him act, I think "why does anyone think he is a good actor?"

Hilarious that you think these lemmings have any inkling that they are criticizing the behavior of Israel. They are behaving like the good little Marxists that they were trained to be.

Biden says Americans have 'right to protest, but not the right to chaos'
jerryskids replied to kilroy69's topic in The Geek Club
Shifting right is different than "right wing loonies." Besides, a high court should lean right. The default should be to not change things from the court; that is generally the job of the legislature. A progressive judge who supports every cause du jour is not good for a stable society. -

The three justices appointed by Trump lean slightly right, but are far more centrist than any of the three liberal justices. https://www.axios.com/2019/06/01/supreme-court-justices-ideology Sotomayor is the biggest partisan hack on the court and it isn't close. -

Is this part of your "I'm really a conservative but I just hate Trump" shtick?" If so, it's not working. Calling Rittenhouse a psycho killer is Defcon 1 level Leftist. HTH -
Unpossible. @The Real timschochetassured me that the majority of protestors simply oppose Netanyahu's policies...

My state is so much better since all of the blue haired Californians started moving in.
