“There has been Anti-Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?” —David Grün

We don’t. We dislike Christian Evangelicals, Christian Zionists and definitely dislike Reagan. But what they say is relevant to Palestine. Too many in power in the West want to fulfill Iron Age prophecies and they are within reach of the nuclear codes.
No more stable than any other Gulf countries. But they aren’t involved in any proxy wars and always maintained friendly relations with everyone including Iran.
Nowhere as much as Qatar or Saudi Arabia, yet they aren’t on the list. UAE should be higher up than Oman too but it isn’t.
Perhaps what helps Oman are other things besides oil and gas revenues. Perhaps their lush greenery and ancient frankincense trees.
What about the white peoples of the Middle East and North Africa?
Oh wait, you banned them, even if they were Christians.
Ronald 6 Wilson 6 Reagan 6
What a coincidence that he’s the antichrist and every one of his names is 6 letters.
It is not up to you to demand that.
Landlords can always charge more. The government needs to under cut them by providing affordable public housing with affordable rent or financing.
The government is obligated to provide public housing, they don’t even have to be free, just sensibly priced.
PPP is your friend more so since some governments provide free healthcare and free education for their people
This can’t be right. How does anyone survive on that?
Windows 11 does report its version number as 10. The latest release of Windows 11 is 10.0.22631.3374 but I don’t know enough to say it is just a reskinning of Windows 10.
Technically both are 10, but I do like the new UI on 11.
I must be in the minority that actually prefers 11 to 10
For Biden defenders:
Trump says the quiet part aloud, but Biden still supports the genocide of Palestinians.
Within the scope of his actual power and influence, Biden has repeatedly chosen to prioritize and enable Israel. As other presidents have demonstrated, there are steps that Biden could take to mitigate the situation. Instead, Biden uses what power he does have to continue enabling Israel.
Since the 1980s*, Biden’s bigotry and cruelty towards Arabs has been obvious. As the various sources I provide below discuss in detail, Biden has actively enabled Israel for decades. We are witnessing the consequences of that as Biden continues to support Israel’s current genocide of Palestinians.
It is whitewashing when one ignores the implications of Biden’s past and current support of Israel. It is whitewashing when one ignores the implications of Biden’s continued support for Israel as it genocides the Palestinians. By supporting Israel politically and materially, Biden is hammering for even more death and destruction. The outcome of that is apparent as Israel continues to commit genocide and, amidst Blinken’s recent visit, announces the largest illegal seizure of Palestinian land since the 1990s.
The common argument that “our current genocide is more benevolent than their hypothetical genocide” is obtuse, callous, and meaningless given that the genocide is occurring now with Biden’s support. Palestinians are dying right now. The land of Palestinians is being stolen right now. Biden’s continued support of Israel ensures that even more Palestinians will die. The Biden Administration has, by providing policial and material support, already given the green light to slaughter Palestinian civilians.
*In 1982
Biden “said he would go even further than Israel, adding that he’d forcefully fend off anyone who sought to invade his country, even if that meant killing women or children.”
The comments were striking to [Minister Menachem] Begin, who had been notorious as a leader of the Irgun, a militant group that carried out some of the worst acts of ethnic cleansing accompanying the creation of the state of Israel, including the 1948 Deir Yassin massacre.
Notably, Ronald Reagan was able to stop Israel via a single phone call. Biden is to the right of Ronald Reagan on the issue of Israel and Palestine.

Vote for Biden but don’t pretend as though it will prevent or reverse fascism.
Historically, liberal and liberalism have failed to reverse or prevent fascism. Historically, as can be observed with certain policies of the Biden administration and their support for the fascist genocidal Israeli government, liberals have enabled fascism.
If a genocider is your “lesser evil”, you’re already fucked and on the road to fascism. It’s obvious that most didn’t learn a damn thing from the “First they came for…” lesson.
When someone proclaims the “lesser of two evils” ask if they’d like to be on the receiving end of the “lesser evil” because anyone who says that never envision themselves to be affected.

The fact that freedom in the US is conflated with not getting the vaccine is incomprehensible. Something like vaccination should be mandatory with very limited exceptions for truly legitimate cases.
Biden has talked the climate talk, but is he walking the walk?
US holds first of several oil and gas auctions as COP28 gets underway
Edit: I love how people are giving Biden excuses, clearly a cult. Funny no one in the West/US gave the UAE and other Arab countries the same benefit of the doubt when it came to oil deals during COP28. Hypocrisy? Racism? It doesn’t matter, I like pointing it out.
I would think a Democratic party that can’t deliver what its base wants is an even greater threat.
