Ah yes...Hamas elections. A bit different than ours.

Biden is like some grandpa who has been dragged from a senior citizens home and has been given a microphone and told to repeat what he can read on the teleprompter but told to say nothing else.

It's worth adding that when the Jews took control of Jerusalem in the 6 day wore they could have leveled the Mohammedan holy sites like what was once done to theirs. They didn't. They allowed the Mohammadens control even though the area is also considered sacred to Jews. And yeah the sacred nature of the mount to Islam is supposedly based on the idea that one night Mohammed jumped on the back of some sort of flying mule with a woman's head and flew to the mosque at the farthest end of the world. After the Mohammadans conquered Jerusalem they decided that was where Mohammed took his night flight. They leveled the Jewish holy sites and built their own on top of them.

Jews ARE sharing Jerusalem. The fact that they didn't live there just speaks to an insane level of violence and bigotry that drove them out, not to a claim that Jews 'don't belong there'.

I'm pretty sure many of us agree more than we disagree on stuff, at the individual level. I don't know why that can't come out more in online forums, myself included. Islam: you mistake me for someone who cares about religion. They're all stupid and their adherents can all potentially use their religious teachings to oppress and kill non-believers or non-conformists. It's the individual and how they interpret their faith who matters.

The Conservative party did the same to me .... can't post on their FB page (5 years now), cause I failed to properly admire Scheer. I wasn't even particularly obstreperous, merely pointed out a couple of exaggerations in their claims. Still regularly see anti-Trudeau posts on the Liberal FB page, however and short of threatening physical harm, they don't seem to be taking them down. Also, there's a subreddit that will only allow conservatives to post; no other viewpoints welcome. I haven't seen anything similar from the left, but there's a lot of subs, so it could well be there. Point being that not wanting to hear any side but your own is not limited to any particular ideology. As it happens, I like the center-right posters on this forum and don't particularly care for the extreme left-wing posters on the other forum. This preference for more moderate opinions dictate which posts I'm more likely to read, and which posts I'm more likely to skip. (It's rather interesting that people claim all viewpoints should be welcome in all venues, because "bad ideas in the marketplace of ideas will be shouted down", but when a bad idea is shouted down, the speaker says "I'm being unfairly attacked and shut down; I'm entitled to be heard!")

Trump to announce yet another Middle East peace deal!

One of the thing I DO respect you for is your willingness to fight outside the echo chamber. CBC is taking posters like myself out into a virtual field and shooting them (one year or two year bans...handed-out like candy for posting Right)...I was unpopular...and attacked...brigaded and de-platformed. But that's where the fight is...not berating Argus for not liking Trump. Here I can say most anything...you as well. Enjoy it while you can.

This is a real problem with the message coming from the left. "Whatever happened before in history is irrelevant to me, as I didn't care back then. But I care now. And my own feelings are more relevant than facts." "And now, I shall go forth and change the world. For the Better!!!" .... Now we know why Stalin needed the dumbocrats. The technical and scientific classes were the first to be killed, because they knew history and could refute his emotionally inflamed nonsense.

So you mean, there's a deeper-than-deep state, and Trump is in? - Absolutely. Hyar hyar!

The Arab League refuses to endorse the PLO's condemnation of Israel & the UAE for their peace treaty. A devastating blow. Now only a few posters on Canadian forums actually support them.

As I've said before, the absolute proof of how nonsensical that idea was is that Trump is still alive. No deep state would have failed to see he had a 'heart attack' or something similar in his first year. That's no hyperbole, but truth.

Now not being as educated or worldly as some if you sound. But I think the left and the right need to meet in the middle and have a party. Then get back to work. Just saying...

God is punishing Portland Oregon for its leftist sins...repent !

I think that CNN has become just as bad as FOX. We can blame both networks all we want, but the very sad part is that since they are corporate media, they very clearly are operating on a profit motive and little more. FOX News is #1 in cable news ratings, and CNN got a significant jump in ratings throughout 2016 because of their almost 24/7 Trump coverage, and they doubled-down on that post-election on the anti-Trump op-ed stuff for the sake of ratings. The point is, if CNN and FOX doing this results in higher ratings, we have nobody to blame but ourselves. If people were so disgusted by this type of journalism they wouldn't tune in and the news would be more professional and objective. People don't want all the facts, they only want the facts that confirm their biases. There used to be only a few channels on TV that had the news, and everyone in the country watched the same news programs. Now because of cable TV and the internet, there's so many choices that companies offer something for everyone, and we've retreated into our bubbles. That old shared culture is unifying, but it's mostly gone. Remember when everyone was on MLW? Now we have the right-leaning MLW, and the left-leaning JMT forum. We are self-segregating.

Corruption: Bill Morneau violated the Canada Elections Act.

Diana Rigg...RIP.

The problem is people who do not expect and are not expected to take responsibility for the decisions they make.

Or with conservatives. Period.

You need to get clue bro. You are completely hopeless. Google: Trump says he is being wiretapped, you'll find thousands of articles calling him a liar. Obama laughed at Trump right along with them. Now the entire world knows that Trump's campaign actually was spied on. In case you missed it... The FBI was caught lying to the FISA court to get warrants to do 'surveillance' on members of the incoming Trump administration. FBI Laywer Kevin Clinesmith pleaded guilty to lying to a FISA court judge. The IG report found 17 significant errors or omissions in evidence brought to the FISA Court judge by members of the FBI. From NBC: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/two-4-warrants-letting-fbi-spy-ex-trump-aide-carter-n1121406 Here's the extent of it: https://justthenews.com/accountability/russia-and-ukraine-scandals/21-words-uttered-fisa-court-change-russia-collusion-case Given your complete inability to comprehend this whole issue, I'll tell you exactly what the FISA Court Judge's words actually mean: "There was a shitload of serious lies in the FBI's reports to the FISA Court, which can't be dismissed as mere errors due to the high level of scrutiny that they received from both the DOJ and FBI. Given the fact that the FBI lied so much in this case, it is highly unlikely that they didn't lie in other cases." In case you still can't follow it boils down to this: "The integrity of the FBI is now shot, and now there is a shadow of doubt cast on every piece of evidence that they ever submitted and every file that they ever touched". Susan Rice, to Susan Rice: "Hi me, I'm just writing us an email to remind ourselves of how Barack Obama wasn't involved in the spying on Trump's associates". - That's not weird https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/19/michael-flynn-full-susan-rice-email-sent-on-trumps-inauguration-day-267998
