I guess the only thing I’d say is that Bari seemed to be heading in the right direction even prior to the Hamas terrorism. It wasn’t so much “I can’t believe the leopards would eat my face” as someone who was changing.

I must say this whole frame is very frustrating. Republicans see someone borrowing half a trillion in debt almost monthly to behave rejected governing. Or someone in charge of the border to have abandoned their post.
It seems like when Republican dysfunction is brought up it’s “they don’t take governance seriously” but when dem dysfunction is brought up it’s “policy differences.”

Is it? If you dole out benefits to in group but are very good at hiding it because you are more talented compared to others, then you are superior to others who lack the ability to hide it.

I do think Greta is the living embodiment of the critique that environmentalists are watermelons — green on the outside but red on the inside. This further cements that connection.

There are two explanations: Jews are better or Jews have some weird conspiracy power.
I do think the bigger objection is the number of blacks (that appears political and not merit).

It is a question for open border advocates. One argument against immigration is that it imports voters who will vote in a way that leads to bad government.
Isn’t California a real world example of that change?

The point I was making is if you for example attempt to kill a civilian but fail because you suck it doesn’t absolve moral consideration.
If your contention is Hamas was trying to hit a military target, the. That of course is different. But given Hamas targeting civilians this month in deadly encounters I don’t give them the benefit of the doubt.

So you are fine with targeting hospitals provided you suck at war and manage (despite your intentions) to not kill anyone?

I honestly don’t understand this take. The original claim was that Israel bombed a hospital and killed at least five hundred.
It turns out that the hospital wasn’t hit but a parking lot next to the hospital. No where near the amount killed. So Hamas lied. Yet you still are believing their central claim.
But it’s worse. There was a 3P feed that certainly seems to support Israel’s story.
However, keep using pejorative Antisemitic claims like “the zionists control the media” to try to wiggle out of the evidence when of course there is plenty of evidence the “zionists” do not control the media.

It was antagonistic and I shouldn’t have said it. My emotions got the best of me but there seems like so many earnest denials of things we all saw on video it reminds me of Alex Jones and Sandy Hook.

The original report wasn’t 40 beheaded. The pro Palestinians reporters have transformed it into “they claim 40 beheaded and that was bs”

Re economy
-
Inflation is almost 4%. That’s double target and btw that’s 4% on a hit elevated base.
-
American consumer appears to be at a breaking point (as their credit is drying up). They decrease spending and earnings tumble. Earnings tumble and stocks tumble.
-
The employment numbers are heavily massaged. the Philly Fed had a piece in this that the numbers aren’t consistent. MoM there have been large unlikely beats (eg six sigma). That doesn’t happen naturally. It’s rigged via adjustments.

No. You questioned whether any babies were killed. And then I called you Alex Jones.

Photos were released. And saying all 40 were be headed was a misquote of the original Story.

No but the original claim was 40 killed babies and some beheaded. They produced pictures supporting the number of killed babies and one picture arguably supporting the beheading.

You claim Hamas wants their population to stay in Gaza. I ask you why do they want that?

You can’t just say “there is propaganda” and therefore “this is propaganda.” Specifically when the specific early claims (that in a game of telephone was transmuted) appear to be correct.
And no, there isn’t an enormous emotional difference (at least there shouldn’t be). Choosing to in cold purposefully target and kill a toddler is incredibly evil regardless the method. I would support the most barbaric form of execution for the perpetrator.
Do you really think “Hamas specifically choose to target and murder toddlers in their cribs” wouldn’t play? Of course it would because the evil is unconscionable.
I think you are just trying to pick on details (subject to a game of telephone) to try to cast doubt on the overall story. I think it is disingenuous.
Follow up post time.
There was a discussion awhile back about whether Jamaal Bowman pulled a fire alarm to help delay a bill relating to the government shutdown.
New footage is out. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/rep-bowman-issued-criminal-summons-pulling-fire-alarm
It seems:
Bowman doesn’t try to open the door.
Bowman takes down signs.
Bowman pulls the alarm and walks away without changing how he walks (ie no indication he then tried to use the door).
To me, this seems like very strong evidence he pulled the alarm to cause a disruption.
