Of course, that's also why you don't vote a violent fundamentalist group into power in the first place. They tend not to give up power voluntarily after they have it.
:nod: When was the last election in Gaza and who won it?
Pretty sure it was around 2006 or so and Hamas was voted in. Palestine isn't the US - we can have a fundamentalist/whacko in power and we can vote him out in 4 years, even if he doesn't want to and encourages his followers to intervene, because we have 200+ years of relatively civil handover of power and a large military that doesn't go along with such efforts to remain in power.

Agreed, the way the liberals force their ideology on people is going to end poorly for them.
Is it worse than the way MAGAt yahoos force their prudish ideology on people?
They don't force anything on you, they sure as heck are not grooming kids with the public school system. They are all about small government

Yep. Biden has blood on his hands. He armed the Taliban, and then he armed Hamas. :ohno:
Biden is out of his league at almost every level, the only thing he is really good at is killing Americans in foreign countries. Nobody does that better than Joe

Right, the minivan taliban isn’t trying to force their views on anyone.

MAGAt yahoos might talk the talk about small government and fiscal responsibility but they don’t walk the walk. They’re focused on forcing their morals on others, see book bans, attempting to punish people who go out of state for abortions, deconkis’ war on Disney, etc. they are just as bad as the wokehodists.

No. It was literally from a Trump speech, praising the cleverness of Hamas and critical of Bibi. But of course it was cast in the light of ‘ME, ME, ME!’.

Trump…joining the ranks of DSA, BLM, and radical lefty college kids.

trump did that because Netanyahu didn't back his stolen election claims. If you're not with trump then you're against him and will be called names.

Hamas WAS CLEVER. Clever but virulently evil. If they weren’t clever, they wouldn’t have been able to keep their plans secret from Mossad and Shin Bet, and the IDF wouldn’t have been caught with their pants down. And ultimately Netanyaho deserves some blame/criticism for this.

The NAZIS were clever. And pure evil. Al Quaeda and the 9/11 plot was clever. And pure evil. You can acknowledge the cleverness of evil bastards while still castigating them as evil bastards.

If the roles in this debate were reversed BDKKKaren would point out that trump said Hezbollah was clever not Hamas and attempt to use that nitpicky little detail to dismiss the entire argument.

I'm not BDKKKaren though and he's correct. Someone can say that Hezbollah (or Hamas) is clever without supporting them. The real purpose of trump's statement wasn't to support Hezbollah but to take a shot at Netanyahu. He didn't support trump's bogus stolen election claims so trump's going to call him juvenile names and try to make him look bad. It's his MO.

Yep. It’s a valid point. And yep, if a Dem had said it, BDK would have had a different reaction.

Being very smart isn’t the feature of who Hamas is.

:roll: I knew the left had run with what Trump had said about Hezbollah. I didn’t point that out and say it was Hezbollah not Hamas because I wasn’t sure if he’d subsequently said the same thing about Hamas, and if I had said ‘wrong’ then I woukd have had the ‘no, you’re wrong’ with a linky along with laughing and dunce emojis thrown back at me.

What about the terrorist of Israel they go untouched for all the crimes they committed.Winston Churchill got the ball rolling in '37 speaking in front of the Palestinian Royal Commission saying that he was going to drop the Ashkenazi Jews in their land and leave.
That’s why I criticized leadership on BOTH sides. I’m not an expert on this but don’t Jews also have a historical connection to the land? And there’s certainly more than just Ashkenazi Jews there.
They were in Germany and they were not thinking about anything in Palestine.The 3 Us(USA,USSR,UK)made it possible for Israel to exist. That is the equivalent of me removing you from your house and allowing PUTIN to move in.
