That sounds like socialism sir.



Do you think Netanyahu can be elected again?

That is worrying because I see the failures as his governments fault, he was also trying to destroy the judiciary to basically become leader for life.
I wouldn't blame all Israelis for his governments bad policies but if he is re-elected. Then those voters are complicit.

The same way Russians are now complicit in Putins madness; Because they like their state pensions paid on time.


I can see him elected again though I really hope he won’t.
The alternatives aren’t great either.
Ganz is also responsible for current events. All those who destroyed the army are responsible. This Ganz guy brings the chief of staff, his friend from the paratroopers, Halevi which also destroyed the army.
No strategic thinking. Only short term solutions.
There is a big part of the public which is terrified by the option of Ganz-Lieberman-Lapid coalition. This part is gonna vote to Netanyahu side of the political map.

Awesome, more floating trash to clutter up the waterways. We literally have ancient pre-WWII cargo ships running the great lakes routes still. Greatest generation knew how to make em.

Does the $320 million come from the money appropriated for Israel annual fund or the more recent approved funding? Or this just straight from US taxpayer pocket from POTUS actions?


Do you also make the calculation of how much money is saved through army studies, improvement of products etc ? As far as I know developing a product can cost billions. F-16 already has like 600 upgrades came for the Israeli experience.. do you also make this math or is it considered irrelevant for the US public?

His veterans are from the 1600's can hardly blame someone whose country hasn't done heavy lifting in hundreds of years.


Scottish people forgot more than you'll ever know about heavy lifting.

The hostages are a shame though. Something in my bones tells me they may never return because of Hamas' cynical strategy. The only ones found so far have been dead for some time. Meanwhile Hamas is pretending to care about their own civilians while the world is too naive to see the inconsistency. I'm glad Israel isn't falling for it at least.


The hostages are a red herring at this point. Hamas aren't admitting they're dead because it's the only leverage they have in negotiations, but based on the recent hostages found all being dead and Hamas changing the proposed cease fire agreement to include dead hostages as well as live ones, it's safe to assume it's a miracle if more than a few are still alive.

In an existential war, you can't divert from a winning strategy to save a few hostages who are probably dead anyway. Netanyahu knows this but still acts like returning the hostages is a priority because of domestic political pressure.

They just have to stay the course for a while longer and finish the job.

I'd support that. But why stop at 1500 veterans?

Build everybody a house.


Yes! Romans had veteran cities

This topic has really aged well. 500 pages ago when your “tears for Palestinians” hadn’t dried yet you were saying how we all could do more to help and stop this genocide.

When I asked if you’d take some of these refugees into your own home you ran like a chicken with your head cut off.

A few days after that the leader of your country said exactly that, “We should open our doors”.

Funny how you care so much that you don’t give a fuck at all.

Everyone sees it too. You’ve flip flopped so many times on this subject you look like a teenage girl who can’t decide what color shirt to wear to school.

Know your lane “Scottie” and when WW3 kicks off know you don’t have to lift a finger because the rest of Europe will carry your dead weight.

Too lazy to dig Houthi thread. Another ship hit yesterday that was on its way to UAE through Red Sea.

Pretty incredible. Goat herders with 60 year old missile tech have basically made the most modern and powerful navy look insufficient.

Sounds like you have a personal issue with me, get over it because I never waste time thinking about you kid.

Who are you again?
