"Mayor Ali Sallam of Nazareth is a populist figure who won the city’s elections by framing them as a religious conflict between Muslims and Christians. Additionally, by supporting local mobs and gangs, he has given them free rein over the city, to the extent that nearly every business in Nazareth pays for protection.

In Israeli-Jewish society, however, he is known and appreciated primarily for a video in which he shouted,
“Get out of my city, we don’t want protests, we want tourism” at Palestinian-Israeli MK Ayman Odeh after a protest in Nazareth. The Jewish population focused on this statement, making Sallam a popular figure despite his involvement with local gangs and the fact that his own son killed his wife"


Guess we can add Ali Sallam to your list of role models. Right up there with Borat, Ted Cruz, and Ben Shapiro.

But this is all nonsense, please tell us what's really going on. Zero missles, no boycotts, no protests, just sunshine and rainbows in Israel








So you can respond with personal attacks and tell us about your 3 hour gym sessions? lolol



What a gem

Trump confirms strikes on Irans nuclear facilities by the US

https://x.com/realdonaldtrump/status/1936573183634645387?s=46

I guess Polymarket was right

Wasn't the one trump upside no wars?
The fat idiot looks likely to start the third world war.

no way a politician lied. breaking news world first.

Dude literally had a meeting with Mark Levin and a bunch of neocons and came out saying there wasn't gonna be a deal.

Everybody knew this was gonna happen for weeks. Trump isn't in control of basically anything. They probably told him Mossad has the Epstein tapes and they'll be released if he doesn't start burning Iranian flesh.

Welcome back friend

I suppose it was quite telegraphed, though I would push back on the notion that Trump wasn't in control - Trump hasn't been a fan of Iran for decades, and neither was original MAGA. I support these strikes, the Iran regime is awful and needs to go, Iran has plenty of human potential that is suppressed

Genuinely, don't be dumb. He was all-in on making a deal with Iran and was even trying to make side-deals so they could continue enriching.

The MIC sat him down and told him how things actually work. He changed his entire position over the course of a 1 hour meeting.

Damn, voted for him because he was gonna end wars, not start new ones. Darn.

When Israel fought back against Hamas, I said on day 1 that the most humane way to handle the conflict would be for Israel to systematically displace and process the entire Gaza population into newly built internment camps in the desert to the south. Build air conditioning, take care of all their food, medicine, etc, turn it into an effective open air prison camp. An incredibly large undertaking, but absolutely possible- and as every person is brought in you can be sure they have no weapons, they aren't able to hide hostages, anyone left in Gaza is a combatant or hostage and Israel is able to minimize collateral damage and deprive Hamas of their main source of human shields.
They didn't.
Instead they launched a ton of attacks, an invasion, sporadic bombings and precision strikes and engagements that wind up killing tens of thousands of people, some % civilians that we can't know.
And in the end, what is their future? They'll likely be administering post-war Gaza as an open air prison camp, taking care of all their food and medicine, and recovering only some of their hostages alive.


If the goal of a war with Iran is to destroy their nuclear weapon program and set them back indefinitely without attempting regime change, then it makes sense to use bunker busters to destroy their nuclear fortress facilities. What does not make as much sense is dragging out weeks, maybe months or years of missile exchanges that hit each others military targets sometimes and civilian targets sometimes, assassinating top military leadership and blowing up hospitals alike. We'll see how it shakes out in the end, but the US strategy is clearly more coherent than the Israeli one at least. That doesn't mean it will be successful or not invite worse blowback and instability
