Screw that, he’s elected now. Just do it.

So does anyone know what Trump is going to use instead of a swastika? Like a big “T” with an eagle on it? Something that looks nice on a brown shirt, or the side of the van that will round up his detractors in 2025? This is 1933 all over.

There will be no 2028 election.

I think for the sake of mixed company and delicate sensibilities we should refer to this as a “BM” rather than a “bullshit machine”. Therefore it could be a LLM BM, or simply a BM.

I’m such an underachiever. Here is “Sleepy Joe Biden”, a doddering fool who even tries to sit where there is no chair, yet who also is the criminal mastermind behind an entire crime family and who easily controls all government and media for his own diabolical schemes. I mean, pick a lane, Republicans!

Sweet! Now all I have to do is have my employer “tip” me every two weeks.

Quite right! Hamas has pulled this shit far too often. For years they’ve attacked and then run and hide on the playground under women’s skirts. Rinse and repeat. Finally, Hamas has done this once too often. Israel has a big job hunting them down. This time, they get smacked down for good. So what’s not to like?

Hamas HAS to go, no two ways about it. The people of Gaza however can have a good discussion with Israel, and quite frankly the assistance of the world, when the war is over.

You make a strong point, and all of it makes sense. This is NOT a simple, black-and-white/either-or situation. Upvoted.

I think the Israeli thought might be along the lines of:

Imagine you see your neighbor supporting a bunch of terrorists in their home. Suddenly their home is bombed and turned into a parking lot. Maybe you’ll think long and hard when a terrorist group knocks on your door and asks to hide there for a while. The only problem is, do they ask or just come in uninvited?

Fixing this would ideally not involve guns, but it doesn’t work this way, at least not well. The only way this can end is if Hamas is destroyed and Gaza is occupied - by Israel or the UN - and rising terrorist groups are infiltrated and nullified before they can reach the stage of endangering their neighbors, until the entire population grasps and can control a self-government process.

If the people of Gaza assist in any way in destroying Hamas, this ends sooner and lives are saved. And the people aren’t there yet - Hamas was their government, so…

Again, not a great solution.

But I find it interesting that almost every comment I receive is “But look what the Israelis did to us years and years ago…” These commenters should grow the fuck up. Get over it. And no, I’m not a Native American so I don’t have a first-hand experience of it. But just as the Native Americans fought for years by using raids, kidnappings, outpost torching… wow, this looks familiar. And they didn’t win either. The same thing is going to happen to Hamas and those who support them.

Again, Hamas has publicly stated that they will not stop killing until Israel is wiped off the map. We can figure it out from there how this has to go.

This happened a lot during the Great Depression. But then I believe the owners found a way to withdraw the auctioned property if the minimum bid didn’t suit them. The French law might bring back the Penny Auction by saying, “You put it up for bid - a sale has to go through.”

That is an excellent analogy to illustrate why this isn’t a black-and-white situation. Well done, have an upvote!
