@escarpment @sarae @w7voa Or maybe they didn’t put their command center there and fed the IDF false info, causing the IDF to attack the hospital and then have to plant fake evidence to make it look like a Hamas command center, which much of the world won’t believe.

@QasimRashid The purpose is to ensure that there is never peace between Israelis and Palestinians. The Israeli Right needs Hamas as much as Hamas has needed the Israeli Right. They are enemies who need each other to maintain power.

@wdlindsy In the book Fire and Fortitude, John MaManus tells that Rupert Murdoch’s father used his newspapers to create divisions, pitting US and Australian soldiers against each other, while US forces were fighting alongside Australians to defend Australia from Imperial Japanese forces. There seem to be a long history of this type of behavior.

@AliceMarshall I think he does not. The Israelis have enough munitions on hand to carry it out. If the President should threaten them with not replenishing them, Israel has enough supporters in Congress to override him. The Netanyahu gov’t sees a brutal response as their only path to cling to power. They will ignore what ever any US President says.

@flexghost How much of the dark money they receive every term originates in Russia? Is there any barrier to prevent foreign nations such as Russia, China, Iran, etc. from buying US politicians?

@noelreports Still breathing.

@georgetakei One day, in a high school bio class I taught, a girl remarked that she would like to be a unicorn. Several other students agreed and a short discussion broke out on what color they would be, whether unicorns could fly, and what other superpowers unicorns might have. Kids have imaginations and some of them would like to be animals, especially magical ones.
