Are we there yet?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are so many signs that indicate that we are... As Christ said in the Olivet Discourse, we can know when it is even at the door but only the Father knows exactly when.

Matthew 24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.....
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

Israel and the rest of whatever remains of the sane portion of the world should be relentlessly branding the “Palestinians” as the Nazis they are. What they did in the unprovoked attacks on October 7th was every bit as abhorrent as anything that Nazi Germany ever did, and the Muslim world’s larger-scale plans for Jews and Israel surpasses Hitler’s actions. During WWII, the “Grand Mufti of Jerusalem” also conspired with Hitler to try to wipe out the Jews.

Since Nazi Germany seems to be the only example of true evil that the woke, insane Left will still acknowledge, it is essential to take every opportunity to connect the so-called “Palestinians” and the rest of the Islamist cabal to that ideology.

If the Leftist world wants to cozy up to terrorists, then force them into the corner of having to defend Nazis.

This is the danger in waiting too long to effectively retaliate.

FJB went to Israel to delay their response.

Whether Hamas will win strategically and long term will depend on how many Gazans Israel kills.

Hamas killed 1400 Israelis. So far 8000 Gazans have been killed.

Since Hamas was the aggressor, the world generally may go along with Israel killing 14,000 Gazans, or a ratio of 10 dead Gazans per dead Israeli.

If Israel kills 140,000, the world won’t go along with that. It is too much like the World War II practice of killing 100 villagers for each soldier killed by partisans.

At some number between 14,000 and 140,000 Hamas will win in the court of global opinion and Israel becomes a pariah state.

There is actually NO such a thing as Palestine nor Palestinians!

Archaeological records prove that the Jews.Hebrews, whatever anyone cares to call them, have been on the present site of Israel ( though ancient Israel was once larger ) for millennia!

The Romans conquered Judea and decided to call it Palestine. WHY? Damned if I know. perhaps I once knew, but it hardly matters now.

Why have some Jews, who REALLY, because of their history, should have known better become Marxists ( who was born to Jewish parents but was a nonbeliever ), Socialist, and/or Commies? Well, one contributing factor is that THEY WEREN'T/AREN'T PRACTICING JEWS! And politics became their RELIGION!

This is actually nothing new!

The infamous Marxist/Socialist Rosa Luxemburg, was born into a nonpracticing Jewish Family. She was as RABID a lefty in the late 1800s-early 1900s and any of the same kind are today. Maybe even worse! And she WAS kicked out of the USA, when we were still a great nation!

The same IMBECILES who joined in with BLM and Antifa are brain dead idiots, who 1) aren't really Jews ( Judaism is a RELIGION; it is NOT an ethnicity nor a race! ) 2) don't know any factual history 3) do NOT understand that Islam wants THEM dead too.

What Hamas did to Israel and her people is WAR! Israel should decimate that entire area that they control!

Since 1948, the TWO COUNTRY SOLUTION has been offered to the "leaders" of "Palestine" and every single time, THEY TURNED IT DOWN!

The Muslims want to eradicate Israel and ALL Jews and Christians too! They want the entire world to be Muslim and THAT can NOT be allowed to happen; not ever!

Congrats the situation in Ukraine and Gaza

Going on two years of pointless war in Ukraine with over half a million casualties and much of the country reduced to rubble while the world media cheer leads the death and destruction in Ukraine

In less than three weeks the media machine is turning world opinion against Israel's attempts to defend itself

>>Displacing a more Mediterranean populace

The Arab conquest of North Africa involved armies of a couple to a few 10,000s. They removed the Byzantine forces that controlled those areas, and they settled in as the new rulers. Since they were the new elites, they also Arabized the existing societies with respect to language, religion, etc.

However, their numbers were fairly small and since the populace converted to Islam, the end result was integration of the new elites with the preexisting populations, at least in the cities and more settled agricultural areas. The nomadic Berbers did maintain their own ethnic identity.

Didn’t say that at all. Was calling out ours for waffling. They should be able to defend themselves seeing as both sides get US support financially.

I thought this was the the case before reading the article. However, my knee-jerk reaction is too take the exact opposite opinion of whatever CNN reports.

It’s too complicated to call them something else

Pseudo but not really hashemites takes too long
Nobody really owned the real estate (Britain kind of)but Israel won against collective odds and it was uglier than folks here know but there it is

The winner wins

Unfortunately since nobody else wants them and uses them as pawns Israel is stuck as ultimate caretakers of these maniacs

I want you to educate me on the word equivocation

I struggle with the usage

People use it like equate and attempting things being relative

No don’t think that is correct

It’s like how empathy has replaced the proper use of the word sympathy erroneously

If you’re a widower and your friends wife dies you have legit empathy

If not it’s sympathy

I have a feeling I’m screwing up saying the media and uniparty etc are EQUIVOCATING the two sides in this conflict

It should be EQUATING in better word usage maybe?

Help

I tell everyone here you would ace the Cracker Barrel peg boards !

Not an ignoramoose

Yes, this mess really IS very complex and sadly, most people are bereft of vast swaths of historical knowledge.

Equivocation means concealing the truth, saying ambiguous things, and actually, just flat out LYING...hiding the truth/facts!

Oh...and today's Palis are actually Jordanian and Egyptian immigrants, or their descendants!

And neither of those nations will take any of them back and have refused to do so for many decades! Nobody wants them in their countries; not even other Muslims!

You're welcome!

Schools no longer teach vocabulary words, and old books, filled with fantastic words, are no longer required reading. So many no longer know many words and/or misuse the ones they only imagine they know how to use.

And worse, what with messaging and garbage like Tik ToK have debased our language and culture.

oxford:

“equivocation”

the use of ambiguous language to conceal the truth or to avoid committing oneself; prevarication.

“I say this without equivocation”

Similar:
prevarication
vagueness
qualification
ambiguity
uncertainty
