“...disproportionate impact which the violence is having on children and women. …”

Sickening! Ask those dead Israeli’s and their families about “proportionate.”

The only “proportion” in war is completely destroying your enemy and his will to fight. We’ve forgotten that.

To fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence. Supreme excellence consists of breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting.

— The Art Of War, 3:2
Everyone on the left embraces this wholeheartedly, when it comes to going after their perceived enemies.

Many of us have not forgotten and pray everyday for the complete annihilation of Hamas down to the last terrorist standing. The Israelis should ignore all advice, pleading, and whining from the U.S., UK, UN, EU, all other national governments and all international agencies. Just do the right thing for the people of Israel and slaughter those feral animals as quickly as you possibly can. TAKE NO PRISONERS.

How do you account for the fact that the United Nations Charter follows the format of the Russian (USSR) Constitution of 1936 rather than the format of the (Covenant of the) League of Nations? Would you feel there was any significance in the fact that the general secretary for the organization which drew up the charter was Alger Hiss? …

Nothing of the UN should exist. It was a communistic abomination from the outset and it is even more of an abomination today.

Ireland tried to align with Nazi Germany but backed out due to fear of England.

IIRC The Irish did declare war against the US.

Some guy had rowed out in a boat and delivered the message to one of our war ships.

I have nothing against the Irish. My wifes maiden name was Flanagan. Can’t get much more Irish than that.
