I just wish municipal and state level public officials stayed away from foreign affairs. Malibu goes up in flames and Karen Bass is in Ghana of all places. Why?

The federal government, in particular the executive branch, is the explicit entity of foreign affairs and Trump/Vance/Rubio talking to Israel or Russia or the UK is perfectly within their job description.
There is a former councilor for my city who spends his free time sperging on local Facebook groups about Trump and Elon Musk. He got replaced by a young Republican woman who ran on supporting local businesses after COVID. Some of these people are truly insane.
 
I am 52 and in the past year I have learned levels of hatred I never thought possible. If hatred were a richter scale I went from a 2 to a 9.5.

Israel makes me absolutely vibrate with ancient ancestral bloodlust. Every day I pray to a just and wrathful God that they will know vengeance in my lifetime.
I mean… God throwing hell their way because they can’t help but think they know better, or that they can force His hand, is a tale so old it might as well be the running theme of the Old Testament. Even when I was a kid I never really got the Christian Zionism shit. If you believe in all this, it only ever seems to end in ruin or exile.
 
Psst, nothing ever happens. How many times in the last year has some end of the end of the world nightmare situation been going on that the left or right freaks out about? A lot.

None of them last more than 2-3 weeks and then it's something else. Remember New Jersey drones? LA fires? Multiple assassinations on Trump? Bridges collapsing? Tarrifs? ICE? Now Iran. In 2 weeks it'll be something more ludicrous and Iran will be forgotten again.
Bro is taking a chudjak meme as an axiom of history…..
 
BBC News is now reporting a “credible threat” to the U.S-run Coalition Air Operations Centre (CAOC) at Al-Udaid Air Base in Qatar, with the threat believed to come from a potential missile attack by Iran.
 
All I know is it seems that the bombing worked - those facilities are gonezo.

Iran saving face with a pathetic response is hardly a happening.

I was hoping they'd stfu, but Iran seems suicidal. I've said awhile ago, if they push back I don't forsee an 'invasion' but a combined Israel/US air campaigned that'll make them wish for an invasion.
 
I’ll bite. I believe in a single state solution. I want to do to you people what you did to White South Africa. Sanction you to death internationally until you become a “multi-racial democracy” with open borders.

Well if you're dumb enough to think that I'll just say this: I hope you enjoy watching your Christian sites be turned into mosques, blown up and/or defiled. Remember under sharia law Christians have fewer rights than Muslims.


with the way Israel’s politics and demographics are trending tho how long is that going to realistically continue for? . This is what I meant about the second half of my post
For the Christians? Well the "problem" with Christians in Israel is that since the Muslim invasion of 637 they have been a minority, and a shrinking one too (seriously look at Bethlehem, it's under palestinain authority control (aka Israel doesn't govern it) and the Christian population barely exists compared to when the Israelis did control it and Christians were around 50%). The problem is that the arab Christians of Israel are sorta like how the Jews are in the West. They are highly educated (their schools are some of the best in the country), very rich, with a high percentage of professionals (Doctors, lawyers, etc), they are excluded from the draft and only serve in the idf if they want to, but the problem is that they have few children and they can't street proselytize like in other nations.See in Israel public proselyization, and proselyization to minors (without parental consent) is illegal, you can convert with zero repercussions (unlike the rest of the middle east where it's illegal and you will be executed), but Jews aren't exactly flocking to Christianity, Muslims actually are, but they can't be public about it (because they will be murdered by members of their community even though that's against the law in Israel, but try doing a proper criminal investigation when your witnesses all say nothing happened and actively work against you). And if you're a Muslim trying to convert to Christianity in the west bank or gaza, good luck because there the Palestinian Authority government (which Israel doesn't control and has very little power over, especially for non security issues) will actively join the mob trying to kill you and formally label your death a suicide.


Also Israel was built to be a Jewish nation, in the same way Russia was built to promote Russian culture/identity or China for Chinese identity, etc etc. I think Christians will always be in Israel but I think for the good of Christiandom in the Middle East they should make their own nation where they will be protected from the Muslims trying to genocide them.


But to answer your question, unless the Christians start pumping out babies their numbers won't grow beyond natural growth. They have the social and political security which could definitely allow for them to safely have many kids but the Christians just don't want to have many.

Notice how Trump never said the stockpile is gone, just the means to refine it CURRENTLY. They will likely quickly get it back and the bombing will have been for nothing.
 
No amount of facts and logic is going to overwhelm muh feels and vagina tingles.
True for some diehard libshit women.

I was recently told by a random retarded woman in a Lowes parking lot, that Trump is having ICE round up thousands of legal Latino citizens and sending them to camps. She said she hoped ICE didn't come for my coworker. Who isn't a Latino, he's American Samoan. The irony of that would have been lost on her, even if she hadn't been an idiot.

And I got yelled at for having the temerity to chuckle at the histrionic wretch.
