We heard about him because of trump, but Obama hired him.

It’s hard to imagine he was a model doctor back then.

The mighty monarch butterfly consumes it while young, ensuring their toxicity to this very day

The movie is Hell and Back, and it is probably one of the most underrated movies ever.

The clip is just kind of filler tho, but the main story is equally as funny.

I can’t hear “welcome to hell” without immediately thinking of combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell.

Hi welcome to hell

Now, it does say Pizza Hut Taco Bell…

There’s been conspicuously few accounts of the actual violence too.

Considering how things have gone in the past, the religious extremists rhere to illegally bid on another countries land likely started it.

I’ve seen articles where they claim any protest against Israel is automatically “violent”.

You act like Biden cares about US or international law…

I used to think he did, but he clearly doesn’t.

I don’t know why leagues still want these agreements.

I can’t imagine a non-exclusive license would be a 50% discount or that there would be fewer than 2 studios who want it.

We need competition back so these genres actually improve.

Instead, they said Biden has noted, Obama publicly admonished Israel’s actions and voiced concern for Palestinian civilian deaths early into the 2014 conflict. As a result, Biden has argued, Obama squandered any ability to influence the Israeli government as it invaded Gaza, said the people familiar with his comments.

Now, I don’t want to find something for every president, and I already explained why trump is uniquely unreliable in pretty much every possible way.

But if you wanted to name any other single president, I can put the legwork in for another.

I do want to point I said “pretty sure” meaning I wasn’t completely sure, so not sure why you came back with

Explain why you’re sure of this

OP said “live without worries”. You already stated your worries.

Right…

And that “born rich” also worry about the number in your bank account…

Then went on to explain that any generation that doesn’t worry, is the last generation to be “born rich” in that family.

User hat:

You deleted a comment I made because you said it was incivil (not going to repeat it, but it’s in the modlog)

Was it because I pointed out that they were denying a genocide?

That’s the only thing that was remotely personal, and if that breaks the rules is it acceptable to instead just link sources explaining how Israel is committing a genocide?

Genocidal denial is just a pretty big deal in my eyes, so I want to know how mods are ok with addressing it. I felt that I was following the sidebar by commenting on the argument and not the user, but apparently I misunderstood something.

I wouldn’t have mentioned it, by their comment denying genocide is literally just a few comments down this chain…

Chikli has since led a targeted push to counter critics of Israel. The Guardian has uncovered evidence showing how Israel has relaunched a controversial entity as part of a broader public relations campaign to target US college campuses and redefine antisemitism in US law.

Seconds after a smoke alarm subsided during the hearing, Chikli assured the lawmakers that there was new money in the budget for a pushback campaign, which was separate from more traditional public relations and paid advertising content produced by the government. It included 80 programs already under way for advocacy efforts “to be done in the ‘Concert’ way”, he said.

The “Concert” remark referred to a sprawling relaunch of a controversial Israeli government program initially known as Kela Shlomo, designed to carry out what Israel called “mass consciousness activities” targeted largely at the US and Europe. Concert, now known as Voices of Israel, previously worked with groups spearheading a campaign to pass so-called “anti-BDS” state laws that penalize Americans for engaging in boycotts or other non-violent protests of Israel.

In the middle of all the propaganda and lobbying, there’s no rational reason to ignore that a foreign government is interfering with American politics for their own gain

It’s fucked when Russia does it.

It’s fucked when Israel does it.

And as long as we keep electing politicians who take the money, nothing will change.

Israel is just smart enough to buy off both parties.

The point is “born rich” is subjective to the people around you…

I wasn’t “born rich”.

But my mom was born dirt poor. Like, the Beverly Hillbillies looked rich in the intro before they struck oil poor. Didn’t have indoor plumbing till she was a teenager poor. Dinner was what her older brothers shoot after school poor.

She made it to small town middle class. I moved to a city and I’m “city middle class” which is practically non existent these days. It’s all subjective. If I moved back to the hill I’d be like Jed Clampett coming home for a family reunion.

I don’t make a lot (more than most tho in my area, but not even close to 6 figures). But because of my upbringing and being able to avoid lifestyle creep, I have a very good buffer and don’t stress about bills piling up.

So instead I stress when my buffer is low.

I freak out if emergency savings is less than 5 digits, I imagine for the really wealthy, it’s the same just a higher number.

They might not stress about keeping the lights on, but they stress when their “high score” drops. It’s just how human brains work. There’s human variation, but if someone doesn’t have that mentality, they’re not going to stay crazy wealthy.

Which is why the saying goes:

First generation makes wealth, second saves wealth, third wastes wealth.

Usually to prolong generational wealth longer than that, someone from the first or second generation has to protect it via trusts so their kids literally can’t fuck it up but sometimes they still find a way

The “intensive” phase of Israel’s offensive in Gaza will soon end, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday — but he signaled he would only accept a “partial” cease-fire deal that would not end the war, and that this new phase would allow a shift in focus to the simmering conflict on the country’s northern border with Lebanon.

1. According to Bibi…

2. And in the same breathe saying he doesn’t want to end the war.

Bibi is facing calls from the left and right in his country to stop stalling the election. If an election happens, he’s not going to win.

So he’s going to keep this war going as long as possible. And is blatantly saying any slow down in Gaza would be to increase attacks on Lebanon.

It’s literally the only thing keeping him in office, because war is his only excuse for not letting Israelis hold a vote.

One side of this has Russia, one side has Israel…

There’s no “good” side, there’s genocidal fascists on both sides.

This is why it matters who we ally with.

What?

Pretty sure every US president since Israel was invented has had to check Israel at some point.

Biden has spent 50 years saying he never will, and publicly shit talked Obama when he was VP and Obama had to check them…

It’s possible trump didn’t, but are you really saying he’s as reliable as Joe Biden?

If trump ever realizes someone needs him, he bleeds them for everything they have…

Or are you saying Biden has been lying for 50 years, has a line, and genocide just doesn’t cross it?

Removed by mod

Israel can’t even genocide Gaza on their own…

If they start a war at the same time, they’ll lose immediately if they don’t drag America into it.

And Biden has spent 50 years saying that no matter what happens, he’ll never stop or even slow support to Israel.

Iran is allied with Russia and other local governments in the 4+1 treaty, so trump would likely join against Israel.

Either way, the US is gonna be involved if it happens, which isn’t a good thing.

I don’t know why people keep acting like Israel’s current government wants peace, they repeatedly keep saying that they don’t.

The viability of a U.S.-backed proposal to wind down the 8-month-long war in Gaza was cast into doubt on Monday after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would only be willing to agree to a “partial” cease-fire deal that would not end the war, comments that sparked an uproar from families of hostages held by Hamas.

In an interview broadcast late Sunday on Israeli Channel 14, a conservative, pro-Netanyahu station, the Israeli leader said he was “prepared to make a partial deal – this is no secret — that will return to us some of the people,” referring to the roughly 120 hostages still held in the Gaza Strip. “But we are committed to continuing the war after a pause, in order to complete the goal of eliminating Hamas. I’m not willing to give up on that.”

Netanyahu’s comments did not deviate dramatically from what he has said previously about his terms for a deal. But they come at a sensitive time as Israel and Hamas appear to be moving further apart over the latest cease-fire proposal, and they could represent another setback for mediators trying to end the war.

At least someone is acting rationally about how Israel’s actions could lead to WW3

Brown said the U.S. continues to talk with Israeli leaders and warn against widening the conflict. He said a key message is “to think about the second order of effect of any type of operation into Lebanon, and how that might play out and how it impacts not just the region, but how it impacts our forces in regions as well.”

Pentagon officials have said that Austin has also raised concerns about a broader conflict when he spoke to Gallant in a recent phone call.

“Given the amount of rocket fire we’ve seen going from both sides of the border, we’ve certainly been concerned about that situation, and both publicly and privately have been urging all parties to restore calm along that border, and again, to seek a diplomatic solution,” said Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, the Pentagon press secretary, last week.
