I don't support any murder but i understand why they were caused.
They were caused because some violent asswipes got it in their head that killing people is ok if you really want to. There simply is no justification of it and there's no rational 'why'. The gaza people are just horrible people and have no respect for life, and they demonstrated that.
The Israeli gov't is hitting military targets and if civillians choose to stand in between they're going to get killed. That's the way it is. In ww2 - 70,000 brit civillians were killed and 2 MILLION german civilians were killed. So are you saying that churchill was a 'terrorist' because he attacked the nazis? That the allies were wrong to fight back after attacked?
Sorry kiddo - That's war and they started a war knowing full well this is what would happen

Two subjective opinions... neither is better than the other. X says that Y is anti-semitic and then Y says X is anti-semitic.
It's not really a 'subjective' opinion entirely. It should be demonstrable that there were statements or actions or whatever that were demonstrably negative to the jews (or whatever group) and the party's reaction to it can be observed. There's a SLIGHT bit of subjective nature in it but there's a quantifiable element as well, so either side should be able to make a reasoned and logical case,
IT doesn't invalidate an argument made today that others have made similar arguments in the past about one group or another
QuoteAgain.. subjective opinions. After having seen this play out a few hundred times... like any reasonable human being, I become numb to it. It is difficult to take someone serious who 1) makes assumptions aka .. including the word False and 2) who says the same thing over and over again in hopes of gaining affirmation.
Well if you're claiming that your argument is based partially on frustration over the topic in general then that would make some sense

The last time I voted Liberal was back during the original Trudeaumania in the sixties. The first election I was able to cast a ballot.
It's absolutely amazing how NO LIBERALS ANYWHERE voted for trudeau these days
LOLOL!
And now they'd all vote conservative if mike cheong was the leader

You should venture over to Liberalforum.org... lots of adamantly Conservative posters that are holocaust Deniers.
Do you know what is interesting.. I never used the word, "False"... I said that posters make accusations. Do you notice that there is no adjective in front of the word, "accusations".. You would be a terrible analystWhat the hell is wrong with you these days? You've always been a pretty honest poster with good ideas most of the time and even when we disagree i feel your points are decently made.
But lately - what the HELL is this garbage? That is the worst kind of obfuscation attempt and completely dishonest.
You very clearly indiciated that his argument was invalid because others form 'both sides' have made it - which as i pointed out is a bullshit argument in the extreme.
NOW you're claiming that TECHNICALLY - TECHNICALLY your Honour - TECHNICALLY i didn't use the word 'false' - that's just HIS interpretation of invalid.
The meaning of what you said was clear. For god's sake man, have the balls to stand behind your arguments instead of trying to pull some bullshit "matlock" technical defense as if you were johnny cochrine and the glove didn't fit.
I don't know what's gotten into you these days but i hope you snap out soon

While all levels of government certainly account for a portion of the cost building, todays high cost of land, labour and materials is equally to blame.
Obviously they play a factor in cost but they're not really 'to blame'.
The value of land is equal to the value of what you can build on it and nothing more. It's high because the value of the properties built on it are high, so solving that problem takes care of that.
The cost of building, assembling, and selling and renting property has always been there. And to be honest - those costs purely are not all that high. I know for a short while there lumber was through the roof but the biggest costs without a doubt come from the various govt's both directly and indirectly.
People don't even understand all the costs. For example - i have to buy the land today but i probabyl can't build on it for 2 years and then it's another year ill i finish building and sell, so for 3 years i have to either pay interest on the money used to buy the land, lose interest on the money i spent on the land that's just sitting there if i paid cash (or a combo of both) AND i'll have to pay property tax AND probably some form of security or clean up or the like. THat's going to add hundreds of thousands of dollars or much more depending on the size of the land - and that's before a single permit is applied for, a single stick of lumber is bought, etc etc.
The cost of building a nice cozy little 1500 sq ft home in one configuration or another which should be fine for a small family starting out or someone downsizing should be somewhere around 300,000 dollars or less right now with efficiencies and such that are avialable. That same brand new home is going to sell for about 1.5 million dollars or more in the vancouver area right now. The vast majority of that 1,2 millon is in costs associated with gov'ts.
We can easily build homes that are affordable for people. They're doing it all over the world. But we can't with the way our gov'ts are set up.

1. Europe? We Americans get along.
2. America is a large continent. And we get along.
=====
If the cost of world peace is a few million more people in America, i have no objection.
But we don't get along.
that's a lie you keep repeating despite the mountains of evidence to the contrary. Canadians don't get along, we're in constant regional conflict, class conflict, language conflict, and now gender conflict, and we fight with the US all the time. And in the US the divisions are very frequently violent.
The only reason there isn't MORE wars than the ones we have is there is one big massive powerhouse nation controlling two smaller (population) weaker nations and it sits in between them. If it weren't for that guarantee there'd be more conflcits, there were plenty in the old days before the divide became so great.
You keep repeating the lie as if it gives you some species of comfort. We do NOT get along. Most of the people i know hate quebec and would be happy to see you leave the country so we can stop feeding you money. Most quebecers i know have very little love for the english or anyone else.
We DO NOT GET ALONG. The best you can say is that we keep the violence to a minimum

Please name the industry which the Democrats intend to nationalize. Since that’s what Socialism is.
No, that's a very common misconception. Socialism comes in many shapes and sizes and many of the models do include a heavily regulated market economy.

Saying there's just one type of socialism is like saying there's just one religion

Just as those who virtue-signal the loudest are usually the most corrupt among us.
Very true. And racism and bigotry is really about dividing people into 'acceptable' groups with different levels of 'acceptability'. And isn't that what the democrats have done now with their intersectional coalition and heiarchy - where whites speak last because they're least acceptable, and black lesbian women speak first because they're the most acceptable?
They're still breaking people down into classes and then weaponizing them to win elections.

"Funny" enough, one of Hitler's greatest tactics was undermining the media but calling it, essentially, "fake news."
That is a blatant lie. Hitler controlled the media and the message and people were expected to believe it.
Hitler moved quickly to censor opponents and take control of all the media and use it for propaganda
https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/the-press-in-the-third-reich
He didn't say 'fake news' in the slightest.
Gee - misusing the media to spread a false narrative... now which party does that remind me of?
Sigh. Lefties always have to lie to try to make a point.

As it happens one if the has s I was stationed at was in Germany in a town called Sohren about twenty six kilometers south of Traben- Trarbach on the Moselle river. I lived off base as many did to get to know the real people, not what one reads about in books written by people who have a grudge or motive for their bias not in keeping with the actual truth. My landlord and his brother both owned stores in the town and so did a number of other neighbors, both had served in the Kriegsmarine , i.e. the Nazi Germany navy aboard a famous cruiser the Prinz Eugen. As my uncles had all served, as did my father in WWII in various services but predominantly the Navy I asked them more than the normal curiousity seeker would have and we spent hours talking evenings that I wasn't deployed elsewhere. Of course the Nazis were still a sore subject in the 1970's and yet, as you likely would have also, I drew him, then his more conservative brother out on their feelings one day about living under the Nazis. Both brothers reacted with great disgust. Aloys , my landlord took me to a pile of farmers manure and compost over 30 feet high on the outskirts of town in a totally barren field except for the ruins of a house. " That was where our local Nazi and his friends lived and died, and there ( pointing to the huge pile) is where they are buried, upside down with all their limbs broken". He and his brother, like much of their farming community hated the Nazi's, " but if you said anything, like our burgermeister did when they first arrived waving their flags in everyone's faces, they stood you in the street and shot you and your whole family. We are asked this by every American who comes to.live in the rooms we rent, we were as glad as the Belgians when you.liberated them."
I feel like that was a lot of words to say " i won't deny what you said is true"

Ontario Indigenous group wants exemption to carbon tax

That's going to leave a mark. The FN's will feel trashed by the liberal federal gov't again and this will absolutely cost the Lbs a lot of votes next election.

Anheuser-Busch InBev said Tuesday that revenue growth in most of its global regions was offset by a drop in North American sales in the third quarter, in a sign of continuing fallout from a promotion with a transgender influencer.
The world’s largest brewer and parent company of Bud Light said its revenue climbed 5% to $15.6 billion for the July-September period. That was in line with Wall Street’s estimates, according to analysts polled by FactSet. But revenue in the United States tumbled 13.5%.

This is STILL HAPPENING!?!?!? Damn - even i wouldn't have guessed this would drag out this long. This has cost them hundreds of billions of dollars. This could go down in history as the biggest single marketing mistake thus far in history.

Oh of course...and I'm sure Pixie-Dust would beg for them to come here.
We agree that Israel needs to wipe Gaza out and take the land. They never really had a choice and now they're walking into a trap.
However...having debated the Israeli situation many times, I think the Zionism of these descendents of Central European Jews...the Ashkenazi tribe...has always been as unpalatable as NAZI Germany. The way these Palestinians were and still are treated is...abrasive to the senses.
Be that as it may...
Israel is in a bit of doo doo. It faces a 2-front war with Arabs who genuinely hate their guts.
What is ironic is that most Arabs don't have much use for Palestinians either.
I think the threat from other countries is pretty manageable. with the SLIGHT but far from total exception of iran, they all get their military hardware from Russia. For obvious reasons russia is not going to be able to spare a craptonne of tanks, air defense, planes or other critical systems right now. The us however will have bucket loads of gear on the next ship and Ukraine can wait a bit.
I think they realize israel is pretty serious this time and it's not a good idea to honk them off too much.

All things considered i doubt they'll be allowed. Small numbers maybe - but after watching the violence against canadian jews and the demonstrations i think it's safe to say they won't be welcome generally.
They'll be scattered to the winds, lots of countries taking a few - and then they'll be no more as a nation and gaza can be turned into a park or something, and these conflicts can finally end.

i already said the cpc will win th e next election is more due to trudeau being in for 9 years then people liking pierre lmao.
And you're wrong, as the polling clearly indicates. But hey if it makes you feel better then sure - the important thing is that the libs and dips will be out for at least 10 years or so - and if anyone can win a third term I'd bet on him.
Justin is well below where most pm's are approval rating wise at this point in his time as pm, and PP is polling much stronger approval wise than just about anyone this far out from an election, never mind an opposition leader. This could turn into an epic slaughter.

The Israel government takes the palestinian land and that's a real problem and people in Gaza doesn't want to be in a prison. Iran sees the injustice mades to palestinians and support them, i see nothing wrong with it.
Well then they can take the people when isreal kicks them out this time for good. Problem solved everyone's happy
Unless of course they're not helping the people, they're just screwing with isreal.
-
maybe we could convince the americans that the palastinians are a 'huddled mass, yearning to be free"?
I love that one of the reasons egypt won't take them is they'll probably still set up rockets to fire at isreal and then Egypt will get bombed
Nice to see they're slightly smarter than the palestians.
I suspect that they'll move them into a tent city on isreali land somewhere and then ask countries to take as many as possible as refugees and try to depopulate gaza, probably keeping large amounts of it
