I wasnt born until 1951 but my friends who had parents blacklisted by McCarthyism told me they were getting pretty anxious. When Trump showed and started talking about people in that Hitleresque fashion in 2015, I thought we had the makings of fascism on the rise.

They told us this back in the 80’s and 90’s. Said to have a suitcase ready and money stashed.

I believed them, not specifically your parents, but the others I spoke to.

If you are referring to the USA yes, we are the Nazis now.

Then why did they agree to the terms of the agreement, did they have kings x or something? How did they know they are dead if they dont know where the bodies are? I guess Hamas gets a special pass from breaching agreements. The only people who care less about Gaza than the Israelis is Hamas.

What you posted above does not contradict what I said. And by the way Aljazerra is a very reputable news source. I watch them daily. And as I just said, their reporting does not contradict what I posted. Since this conversation is going in circles you can have the last word.

I recognized it, and I dont pretend it doesnt exist.

With all the Trump money he couldnt bribe them to look the other way to whatever got him thrown out? Did NYU just refuse to be blackmailed?

It does in so many ways. Humphrey's and Harris's campaign also echo each other in some ways.

History Rhymes again.

Nixon spiked the 1968 peace talks to win the Presidency. Many thousands more died, until he was ready to cheat at the next election too.

Same here. People need to learn the difference between an entire people, and a country.

Murder. Absolutely correct usage of the word.

I didnt say extremely low, but if you want to add that to my post I wont object.

I dont disagree with the overall premise of your post. The use of the word "get off " and the fact that its overly broad is where I disagree. Netanyahu and his government have committed war crimes in Palestine are a fact though. Like in the US the Israeli people are responsible for their government

Trump is a low IQ with the emotional IQ equivalent to a colicky baby.

Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.
