His approval rating is at a historical low for any president at this point in their term, I think. People don't like ICE, pedophiles, or wars in the Middle East.

Wikipedia says about 40% of America approves of him


Have you ever been to inner city America? Honestly curious. I couldn't imagine policing it without using a gun sometime.


There are two foundational events that set this conflict in motion:

1). The violent establishment of a settler ethnostate in a Muslim region in 1947 2). The deposition of the Shah in 1953

If you're going to talk about causes you might as well start there.


Muslims grabbed land by force thousand years ago, while killed every one who disagreed.

History is full of violence, I am talking about current time. It is current Iran's choice to not accept Israel existence, in contrast to many other Arabic countries who normalized relationships.


lolololol


Israel, because they compromised him through the Epstein operation


According to the report[0] presented by Sen. Shelden Whitehouse, everything points in the direction of Epstein working for Russia.

entirely possible, but keep in mind that Epstein's madam, Ghislane, is the daughter of Robert Maxwell, who most certainly worked for the Israelis, and is probably how they got nukes.

also keep in mind that they people actually running the Trump Whitehouse, various billionares + Stephen Miller, are very Jewish and very pro-Israel. As long as Trump keeps getting his $$$ he'll let them do whatever tf they want


Why are you under an Iranian barrage right now? What led to it?


The Americans and Israelis are bombing Iran, and Iran is attacking the GCC countries. Do they not have the news where you are?


Sounds like we've got a clanker lover over here


Netanyahu came before Congress in 2002 to strongly urge the invasion of Iraq. What universe are you living in?


Ariel Sharon was the prime minister of Israel in 2002. Netanyahu was a civilian. You seem to be unable to tell these two very different people apart. I suggest going easy on the green stuff.


Current prime minister, former and future prime minister, that's an irrelevant distinction here. Clearly the Israelis thought the Iraq war was in their interest, which is the original claim here, and is clearly evidenced by Israeli attempts to lobby in favor of the invasion.


This is demonstrably false. Ariel Sharon lobbied against the invasion.

Netanyahu’s role is extremely relevant. There’s a big difference between a civilian’s personal opinion and official state policy.

Your original claim is false. End of story.


I think you're completely right, and the fact that most people don't realize this makes me think that even most 'smart' people are pretty stupid when they have to think outside of what the media tells them.


I don't think they're stupid and i don't fault them. I made extraordinary claims and it took me 20 years of seeing extraordinary evidence to face reality.


Every day you decide not to donate a fraction of your income to medicine in Africa. How many deaths are you responsible for?


having the power to destroy a government agency that provides aid and actually going through with it is not morally equal to not donating a few dollars of your income


1 - the moral calculus is different if you were already doing so and then suddenly shut it off

2 - i was happy with the arrangement of the government doing it on my behalf, and in doing so making the united states stronger and have allies around the world

3 - elon musk did this illegally

4 - elon musk also caused additional deaths by virtue of supporting trump, rfk, and these other lunatics which he was definitely affirmatively a part of doing


You are. We are. With our powers, and money is one of them, comes responsibility. We can decide how and if you respond, but it's still ours.
