The FM’s ISIS recruiting ratings just hit 100%. Obama took out OBL. So that has to be reversed too.
The weakness engendered by sequestering all of our wealth in the dragon hordes of Koch, et al., reduces our defense against terror attacks. What we have here is a blueprint for the next 9/11.

We have plenty of money to spend on infrastructure in foreign countries, as long as we let sick American children in poverty die.

Another grand Trump business deal.

Haha, jokes on MBS the erstwhile new king of Saudi Arabia and best buds with boy Grand Diplomatic Genius Kushner. They are just going to love this in Riyadh where the ‘secret’ love affair between the Kingdom and Israel used to have some deniability. Everyone knows the score. After the Six Day War and the first oil embargo the Saudis would not touch Greater Israel, except with some occasional words, while pumping ever possible barrel of oil, until it runs out. Then Trump offered up the chance for the grand prize. Destroy Iran and take a big step towards eliminating Shia Islam from the face of the earth.

Then some moron the other day floated the idea of a joint ‘intelligence’ operation between Israel and the Saudi’s, glowing orb and all, and now this. It has been fairly easy for every Salfi Jihadi to ignore Israel and concentrate on eliminating Shites but this is going to be a bridge too far Good luck MBS.

It is clear that the radical apocalyptic Christians and far right Israelis do not believe in the two state solution. I think the solution is this: Palestinians should give up their national dreams, join Israel on the condition of the right to vote, and get their rights back through the ballot box.

My solution: Israel recognizes Palestinians as full citizens of Israel with the right of return. Rights will follow due to demographics.
Of course my solution will never happen.

The Saudis care less about the Palestinians than the Israelis do. And that’s saying something.

Why don’t you start with something more meaningful and closer to home: returning Native American lands to Native American tribes. There is not a square inch of the United States that we didn’t take away - generally by force - from some other “rightful” owner. Just saying.

“The mere consideration of Trump changing the status quo sparked a renewed U.S. security warning on Tuesday. America’s consulate in Jerusalem ordered U.S. personnel and their families to avoid visiting Jerusalem’s Old City or the West Bank, and urged American citizens in general to avoid places with increased police or military presence.”

That’s the goal, people. Trump wants to make Americans overseas, particularly in the Middle East, more likely targets, so he can feed his base more anti-Muslim red meat at home.
