Sounds like a tantrum...did you scream and kick your feet as well...the real question is do you feel better for it... So i guess you don't have a problem with the creation of the 1/2 dozen or so Muslim countries created by the same organization league of nations now the UN assembly...and some how you picked the jewish state as the problem...and everything else is OK....2 points

And for the PC a few times amiusingly enough. Great minds aren't independent. Great minds come to a conclusion and where appropriate seek like-minded people to make a better future and where appropriate call bad people out for what they are. He felt he could do some good in politics and so he worked with both parties. When he felt the liberals were doing good he said so and worked with them, and when he felt otherwise he said so and didn't work with them. But he always made his case well. Even if you disagreed his thoughts were well thought out and put together. We don't see that nearly enough anymore these days2 points

That person is absolutely right. I always keep asking myself as to why we do not have a white pride month anywhere in the western world? When i have mentioned that here several times, i get called a white racist. This needs to end. Enough already. We the white people do need a month to call our own. Be white and be proud. Works for me. 😇2 points

I think we move all the Palestinians out of Gaza to the West Bank, then move all the Jews out of the West Bank to Gaza. Then the Palestinians can have their country but ONLY if it's demilitarized and supervised by reliable outside powers.2 points

And what year was this? It's certainly not this year or last. The 'fact' is that hamas got them killed using them as meat shields in a war they started. Can you point to ONE verified case where an israeli attack was launched specifically with the intent to target children? No? Not one? Hmmm You can't talk your way out of this with lies. Sorry. Pretending a lie is a fact may help you excuse your support for terrorists but it's not going to convince anyone else to support terrorist.1 point

Perjury? What perjury was that? Everyone is saying Stormy torpedoed the case. The next question the defense is going to asking is to the "fixer" and they are going to ask "Mr. Cohen, were you lying then or now?" Cohen has no credibility. Next week, the NDA case will fail. The documents case has already failed, when Fani gets dismissed from the GA case it will also fail and that will leave the bogus fraud suit that is now under serious jeopardy. The banana republic is starting to tumble. The democratic republic and justice system are starting to prevail. As in every movie, the bad guys got to a crescendo that looked insurmountable and then lost spectacularly.1 point

Nobody is pretending, Palestinians don't want a two state solution, the land they want is now called the state of Israel...what do you think from the river to the sea means... Nobody cares about famine...there is a conflict ongoing... UN said on the news that they were having issues finding trucks and drivers...one hand not talking to the other... The border crossing is now in control of Israelis military...and they have nothing to do with the flow of aid trucks... Should have thought about that before electing a terrorist organization into power...I find it funny becasue Iraq, Afghanistan, sudan almost every other nation that had conflict has managed all had much more poverty than gaza has, and they managed to fight. I'm not the one cheerleading for a group run by terrorist...1 point

Your facts are not right, there are 14,000 terrorist killed included in your numbers, and they died fighting or doing terrorist sh*t...So 16,000 civilians have died in this conflict...at least be truthful. Can you point to the thousands of palestinians that want Hamas out of power, and what they have done to start that process...they are content with the way things are going right now...one would think with Israel getting ready to finish Hamas off, that they would have stood up and done something...but nothing but crickets...1 point

There already was provocation to invade. That ship sailed over a decade ago. FYI you don't get to decide what Russia considers a provocation, and the US almost started WWIII in 1962 for far less provocation than Russia faced. That's such a tiny part of the story it's just a farce. Biden changed the timeline, breaking the deal, and angering the Taliban The decision to leave Bagram and use an open, unprotected airbase was silly and created chaos The biggest factor here is that the Taliban feared Trump. Enemy leadership was being killed off at a rapid pace when Trump was president, and even in the ME he had earned respect. The Taliban never would have "been angered" by Trump, they would have just renegotiated while accepting the fact that they were at a disadvantage. What you fail to acknowledge is that everything somehow "worked out" under Trump. Instead of having new, massive terrorist orgs taking over country-sized swaths of land and committing genocides, terrorist orgs were disappearing under Trump. Al Qaeda was believed to be gone for good by the end of Trump's presidency. NoKo had quieted down. Russia/Ukraine was quiet. The Afghan war was dying down with a whimper. Israel was normalizing relations with Arab countries. The US border was secure and getting more and more secure by the day. The US economy was booming and Americans had their biggest increases in disposable income in several generations. Covid put a damper on Trump's economy, obviously, but his track record for winning was very impressive. Biden has f'd literally everything up. There are massive wars in Europe and the ME now. Inflation is the highest that it has been in several generations. Illegal immigration is at catastrophic levels. It goes without saying that the Afghan withdrawal was a military fiasco comparable to Little Bighorn, the Bay of Pigs, and the retreat from Viet Nam. The Afghan withdrawal just fits with Biden's success level in every other facet of his presidency. Imagine a guy with neatly coiffed hair, a sharp suit, shiny shoes, glistening watch, and wearing a pair of dirty gym socks as a tie. That's what the Afghan withdrawal, as it went down under Biden, would look like on the Trump presidency. Just completely out of place. The Afghan withdrawal fits Biden like a glove. Dirty gym socks look normal on a homeless man's feet. And Biden was the one who got them dirty. They got dirty during his presidency.1 point

These proxy wars are good business for the US. They achieve a lot. They act as a proving ground for their weapons, which makes them worth more on the open market and drives up the stock price of the companies that congressmen are invested in, they get to offload some older-generation weapons which creates the 'necessity' to replace them, which creates new US gov't spending in the companies that congressmen are invested in, etc. This is also driving down the cost for Russian military tech: it's getting soundly thrashed on the battlefield. Ukraine is able to defend themselves very well considering the amount of mechanized armour, stealth fighters and guided missiles on both sides.1 point

No, not stupid at all. However, you are certainly not being earnest at all. You made a post about an Israeli protest blocking the Mitzpe Ramon entry... and when I made a point about how Israeli forces have routinely broken up those protests to allow aid through... you then pivot to a completely different argument about how the current war effort has temporarily closed the Rafah and Kerem Shalom entry points. You know, because when Hamas is fighting near them and attacking IDF forces near them, it makes it hard for drivers and the UN to coordinate trucks. Israel continues to try to reopen them though... I did not merely critique the source. I clearly critiqued the fact that the source did not provide any evidence to support their claim. So, again, where is the evidence for all these people starving to death? The UN certainly doesn't have any. Do you need me to quote that from the source you provided? Did you even read it? Wow, what an intelligent and well-thought-out response.1 point

" Later in life, he became a loud detractor of the federal Liberal party and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government. He was also an outspoken opponent of "wokeism," progressive ideology sensitive to systemic inequities, and argued in his column that conservative voices like his were being pushed to the margins. Former prime minister Stephen Harper expressed his condolences on social media. "Rex Murphy was one of the most intelligent and fiercely free-thinking journalists this country has ever known," Harper wrote." Broadcaster and commentator Rex Murphy dead at 77: National Post (msn.com) Will miss his columns. A truly gifted writer and commentator.1 point

Incentives? Um, no. It was punishment for failure to comply, and to the point, it was ruled unconstitutional. Biden abused his authority. You cheer him on here and try to justify his actions when he acts like a dictator instead of condemning him. Oh... so how exactly is Trump going to be a dictator, as you fearmonger about then? Yet again, Biden is losing in court here because he abused the power of the federal government to silence and censor people. You cheer on his abuse of power. Lying, is a protected 1st Amendment activity and it is not Biden's job to determine what information is a lie and what is not, and then silencing what they choose is a lie. Again, you cheer on his dictator attempts. Yeah, just like a mafia boss doesn't have to order his hitman directly to take out someone... Give me a break with this nonsense. The AG reports to Biden and acts at his discretion. Biden picked him up, Biden supported him, and the AG is now carrying out the political vendetta on Biden's behalf.1 point

Anyone with half a brain in any experience knows that that's not true. Numbers can be manipulated, and how they appear on a graph can be manipulated as well. For example, how did they get the gasoline price? The number for the wholesale price for gasoline in any given state will be very different than the actual price at the pumps. Which could very substantially. Did they take an average per state? And was that an average over the course of the year or did that get calculated on a specific day each year? Is it the mean or median average? And that's just the beginning. I could make the numbers look very very different just by adjusting how I calculated the price of gas over that time and that's before getting into things like inflationary dollars. If you think that a number is the number and there is no other possible number that there could be then it is you who is the child here. Numbers are made up by people and how you choose to make the numbers up determines what the graph will look like1 point

And? Did you think putting it in a huge font would somehow make your point less false? Most Canadians of either sex are accepting of limited access to abortion and don't have a problem with the morning after pill. Honestly i don't think anyone here even considers the pill "abortion" really. How does that change anything about what was previously said? It doesn't.

You figured that out all on your own did you? It started almost a century ago and it'll probably still be going strong long after we're dead and gone. It's not. I don't believe it, I said why and posted a link to a corroborating opinion to support it. You just post the same opinion you post in every thread on every topic - consider it thrown back in your face every single time you use it because we all wanted it almost a century ago. Everyone knew better but we did it anyway. Sure, like no one's ever heard that before. How come all that 'crackin' down and gettin' tough' last time didn't produce a right wing utopia that lasted a 1000 years?1 point

They've also air-dropped supplies onto the beaches before. They figure that the randomness of doing it that way prevents Hamas from taking everything for themselves, and leaving children to starve to death. A low-IQ terrorist supporter is trying to call other people out for being credulous lol. Now I've seen it all. That's the one grain of truth from your 15,000 posts.1 point

Are you stupid? There are two main crossings into Gaza for aid: Rafah and Kerem Shalom. both are cloised and have been for days. LOL a guy who takes IDF propaganda at face value has no business critiquing other sources here. Baby brain at work here.1 point

I know the difference between someone being honest and someone just jerking me around. I gave you the data to back up my claim. You are more than welcome to contact COGAT and ask them for their raw numbers. What you are doing is ignoring them posting that they counted X amount of aid, because you want to see their excel spreadsheets. That is fine, if you want to do that... but it doesn't discount anything or negate the data they are providing. Or the obvious truth to it as they show pictures and evidence almost daily.1 point

Is that why they're titled: "Remote Work Might Not Be As Productive As Once Thought, New Studies Show" and "Remote workers aren't actually more productive. Will bosses finally call them back this year?" Because they're positive about working from home? First, I didn't say or claim anything about your sources. I spoke generally about the early research, and took issue with your claim that all of the reports/research about remote work show it improves productivity, which is absolutely not true. Second, if we do examine your sources, they don't even support what you're saying. The first is a statscan link that has no data whatsoever on productivity. The second is a fluff-piece from "Axios", whoever that is, that once again provides no data, and the third is an article from the National Post which, (awkwardly for you) concludes: “If remote work boosts productivity in a substantial way, then it should improve productivity performance, especially in those industries where teleworking is easy to arrange and widely adopted, such as professional services, compared with those where tasks need to be performed in person, such as restaurants,” Fernald and his co-authors wrote. But after controlling for pre-pandemic trends by industry, they found little statistical relationship between productivity and the prevalence of remote work since the pandemic. So, let's "recap": You claimed that all of the reports say remote work improves productivity (categorically false), and your junky defense is that you are right because the lame-duck links you provided are more recently dated. 🙄1 point

They should be going to work 5 days a week like every other real working person. And if they want the 3-day a week program, they can go into work Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but I guess they would want to go to work Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for a 4-day weeked. What whiners! And since this working from home, that is another joke...the work part that is, saves them money, so at contract time, offer them less of a raise.1 point

You don't have to be a participant or be armed....to be declared a combatant, you could be in most supporting roles, being armed is a sure fire method of getting targeted, but delivery of food, ammo, water, running messages, being the money guy, comms guy, IED maker, rocket maker....all of it will increase your odds of becoming a number on someone's board...1 point

Some people claim there is a campaign of genocide in Gaza which has been ongoing for many years. If so, it's the most ineffective and incompetent campaign of genocide in world history.
