The Damage Israel Does

How do you link something on ET with a hidden link like this? I just post naked urls, but I want to copy/paste text with embedded links and ET strips them out.

You highlight the text in your reply, and then paste the URL in the popup box after clicking this button in the reply section...

Then maybe it is time for the USA to go medieval on their ass by letting them all fend for themselves.

I'd be all for this. Pull back the military, and all international aid funding. Reduce NATO spend to the same as everyone else. Lets see how they all do.

The US was good at it when they they had no other choice but to do it. See all wars up to WWII.

Korea was basically a tie, and its gone down hill from there.

The fact that Japan, Germany, and South Korea became successful western style democracies with strong economies really clouded a lot of judgement. Muslims dont want it and will resist it.

Let them have it. If a bunch of savages want to live in the 7th century, why are we preventing them from doing so. Just don't come calling for help when you discover that the middle east is mostly a large desert and nothing grows there.

The only thing that have going for them is oil. I am not for mandating electric cars, but breaking the dependence from oil is a great reason. Of course, we have to build up nuclear energy to serve the need, but it is technologically possible now and will be the ultimate solution. Mark my freaking words.

Wind and solar might play a small role, but they are just not feasible.

The green energy scam is just that, a scam. I actually worked for an oil company and we researched the feasibility of alternative sources of energy, windmills, solar, geothermal, biogas, etc. The obvious conclusion, alternative energy sources are too scarce to be viable and they cost way too much. That is why we still have oil even this day as the number 1 source of energy. Nuclear energy is the other viable energy source but, with the Fukushima nuclear meltdown, a lot of people do not want nuclear power plants.

I agree for the most part. It's not a total scam, but too many of the usual suspects running the usual tax and penalize hustle. Wind should be totally abandoned. Solar is dirty to make, won't work well in many climates, and rather expensive. Nuclear has been and is the answer, but we still have a government with a Nuclear policy based on a 1979 bullshit movie. If the problem was even close to the claims we'd have built out nuke plants coast to coast. The fact that hasn't happened tells me the "climate threat" is grossly exaggerated. Add in the horseshit policy of It's okay to pollute all you want so long as you can afford the tax penalty is proof positive there is no immediate crisis.

All I keep hearing is how Libs are backing Hamas, but all I keep seeing is Libs backing Israel.
Are cons and libs aligned now?

First of all, there are no libs. There are leftists. its a big difference. The dems are worried because of donors.



Stuart Varney: The Squad's 'rabid pro-Hamas' position could push Jews to flee the Democrat Party
The Squad is vigorously supporting an organization that terrorizes and kills Jews, Varney argues

I've got some close Jewish friends here locally, with one I go to breakfast with every other weekend. He's conservative, like me, but his wife is a raging liberal. I always ask him what the hell his wife is thinking. "Why do you support a party that is not a supporter of Israel? They're bent on your destruction and you give them your votes? Are you insane?" He shakes his head all the time.

But not lately. Now she's on board with him. She said she realizes that she was misled. The democrats stand for a lot of liberal things she believes in, but she can't negotiate on this. So she's done. Now, I get it. This is one, anecdotal situation. But I can totally see how Varney's comments could be representative of a broader population.

pffff, like the cons would ever compromise Israeli aid that launders back through donations & lobby groups like AIPAC and defense contractors.
