Oh, Biden himself does actually believe that, but that's true of pretty much every president. I do think it's a little more extreme in his case than for most.

How would I know? The point is that the best thing he can do with his position in the Senate is to look forward. He's not the type to pursue his individual interests at the expense of the cause.

This is something a lot of my compatriots on the left don't seem to get. Good activists don't make good politicians, and good politicians don't make good activists. We need both. Bernie is a politician, and I'm not.

I actually have moved on in a lot of ways, except that I want us to learn from past mistakes so we don't repeat them. I want every person in America to understand how the establishment (of both parties) manipulates the national conversation so we quit falling for the same bullshit.

The other side invested heavily in promoting that decrepit old man to represent their interests. The amount of backroom maneuvering it took to hand Biden the nomination was remarkable.

The bombs that Israel depends on the US to supply are precision bombs. They have plenty of other options for dumb bombs. In theory we want them to have precision weapons because it takes fewer bombs to hit a target. Of course the reality is that they are just leveling everything, so it's probably a moot point.

Has anyone heard about FISA being expanded?

I said we can push him left. Please keep pushing.

Actually, yes. The only exception would be YouTube, but I don't let the algorithm tell me what to watch. I have a handful of channels I follow, and sometimes look up a howto video.

According to UNRWA, the number of Palestinians currently in need of food assistance is more like 500k. 30k is a good start, especially when you consider that it was just the first drop. Negotiations are reportedly going well to start bringing in boats, but time will tell if Israel is as open to that as they claim.

Any boots on the ground, even those protecting aid workers, carry a risk of more incidents like the flour riots, so that's not going to happen without operational coordination agreements. Israel would love it if there were an incident between American soldiers and Palestinians. It would be a propaganda goldmine.

Assuming they get you on video, it would be trivial to crop out the clothes and give the algorithm only your face.

Don't forget the carbonation for cool looking bubbles!

Hamas and Israel are two sides of the same coin. Hamas knew exactly what the demented Israeli government would do, and they knew it would bring sympathy to their cause. Israel walked into the trap because they are also consumed with ethnic hatred. There is plenty of evidence that Israel even supported Hamas just to get them an excuse for a genocide.

If you think this is the start, you have missed a lot of news.
