62% of nursing home patients are funded by Medicaid. They are far from able-bodied. Can you imagine America's streets filled with a million nursing home patients dying in their in wheelchairs?

She didn’t get anything wrong, she just lied.

This problem is incredibly complex, and there are bad actors on both sides. But the first step is that everyone needs to accept that we must work towards an independent Palestinian state side-by-side with Israel.
The only people making noise are promoting a single state, one side or the other.

Of course there is a better way! It’s called peace! Let me begin by defining an “extremist” in this situation: It is anyone who believes that the solution is one state, because that means either no Palestinian state or no Jewish state. There cannot possibly be long term peace without two nations.

If you redefine genocide to mean any act of warfare, then yes. The casualty figure of 50,000 comes from a disreputable terrorist organization, so we don’t know if it’s true but if it is that is 1/4 of one percent of the population of Gaza.

Hamas is the government of Gaza. They invaded Israel. They keep hostages and refuse ceasefire proposals. Do the Gazans support Hamas? They’re welcome to overthrow Hamas and bring this to an end. If not, Israeli soldiers will do it.

Dude, you’re just all twisted up with hate. You’re full of hate and you aren’t going to change.

Israelis protest against Netanyahu in the streets all the time, in huge numbers. Gazans who protest Hamas in the streets get murdered by Hamas.

You are supporting terrorists.

“I only wanted to hurt other people.”

But you did say that Israel has no right to exist, correct? Therefore, you’d say that anything Israel does in its defense is murder.

You’re the type of scumbag to say that “Germany is Polish territory”

So you want war in the Mideast forever. Got it.

I suggest that you study the history of war. By your logic, the US is a terrorist state due to the number of German and Japanese WW II civilian casualties. Casualty figures are often asymmetric, and never is there an “umpire” who declares a victor and ends the war based on number of casualties.

So… Palestinians are ALLOWED to murder Jews and Jews are not allowed to fight back… and you expect people to believe you aren’t an antisemitic racist?

War does not have referees. Do you think the U.S. fought WW II by counting the number of deaths and stopping?
I believe a total of three U.S. civilians died in WW II, whereas the U.S. killed nearly a million Japanese and German civilians. This is a tragic and sad fact.

This is the result of wars intended to drive the Jews into the sea.
What is the Palestinian chant today? “From the river to the sea.” That means “no Israel.” So of course Israel won’t accept that.

Yes, the Palestinians have been given the opportunity to live in peace. They’ve rejected peace plans over and over. They should be an independent nation by now but they get leadership committed to terrorism instead.

Hamas is a terrorist organization. They seized control of Gaza through a violent coup. They murdered the elected Fatah leadership. They do not represent the people of Gaza, they sacrifice them like canon fodder for their ridiculous “cause.”

If “it’s been said” and “you heard it,” then it must be true.
You have three nipples on your chest. There! It’s been said. Therefore it’s true.

The two situations are not the same at all. The people in the Warsaw Ghetto were being deported to death camps. The people in Gaza are not. Egypt ceded Gaza to Israel in exchange for the Sinai Peninsula. Israel subsequently withdrew from Gaza 20 years ago. Then came October 7.

There was never a country called Palestine. It was part of Great Britain and it was part of the Ottoman Empire before that.

You know what else is childish? Thinking that Hamas is allowed to stroll over the border and murder 1,400 Israelis and kidnap another 250.

Why is her hand red?

You seem to know, so enlighten us.

I reject what you are saying entirely. The enemy is Hamas. Blame Hamas for embedding themselves within civilian population centers and among children. Israel did not want Hamas to invade on October 7. They don’t want any of this, which is why they need to fight until Hamas surrenders or leaves.

If Hamas has no military, who’s fighting the IDF?

I can’t tell you why Hamas doesn’t obey the commandments of Allah. You’d have to ask them.

I am stating what the people of Israel believe. And the reason they believe this is because a majority of Israeli Jews are Sephardic… they are of Middle Eastern descent, not European, and their family was expelled from the Muslim nation of their ancestry.

You questioned whether Palestinians are “Islamic,” and I showed you that Hamas, the entity which governs them, is an Islamic entity. Because that is what they call themselves.
