Israel vs. Iran And Proxies: War Discussion Master Thread

Why would anyone lose faith from something that idiot says

More like the media props her up as some sort of saint savior, and she is a disgusting human being.

[TimT]

Just to clarify, I don't think anyone has video of her saying it. But she's very happy to be seen at a protest where all those are being chanted and she is not disowning it:

The only ones with any faith in her are the media. The rest of society wouldn’t care if she dropped dead like yesterday.

Then must be I thought she's more radical than she is.

"White House National Security spokesperson John Kirby told reporters Israel was still getting the weapons it needs to defend itself. "He's (Biden's) going to continue to provide Israel with the capabilities that it needs, all of them," Kirby said."

(No worries, I get that this is the exaggeration and hyperbole thread.)

You must have not glanced at his book/memoir, he is an ardent Zionist who believes only in כוחי ועוצם ידי. I couldn't take it after a few pages. Total כפירה.

He very often ends with בעזרת ה' ננצח

He is obviously not as radical as she is, but he is absolutely getting very influenced by The Fringe elements of his party

She's a useful idiot to the climate change cultists. The minute she grows up (assuming she's capable of that), and she's no longer a "young girl" they'll discard her like a used diaper.

He's doing a low political move in order to appeal to the progressives in his party, and it is more a statement he makes than actually blocking vital weapons Israel needs to defend itself. It is just silly and childish these constant comparisons to Hamas or other radicals. Let alone he's still doing more for Israel than any other world leader now. We don't see calling Hamas slurs for Putin, Macron, Sunak and others who aren't giving anything at all for Israel. Radical lefts chant "Genocide Joe" and radical rights chant "Hamas Joe", that's all.

[Yehudaa]

Not sure where else to post this personal observation, so I'll leave it here:

I have a really nice non-jewish coworker who occasionally checks in with me to see if my family is okay "back home".

When he uses that term "back home", the cynical part of me often says to myself  "Thanks for the support, but just so we're clear, my family has been here in Canada far longer than yours has. I do have family members who have moved to Israel, but I'm not some immigrant who came to Canada from 'back home' recently. This is just as much my country as it is yours."

But then I stop and tell myself that if he can see Israel as our homeland, surely I need to work on myself to see it as such. "Back home" should be the view that we strive for, and if I'm upset when he implies that that in some way Canada is not really my home, that's only because I do feel too settled here, when I should really see Eretz Yisrael as our home, and my current location as a temporary stop along the way.

/.02

(Obviously "this is not your country" is often a rather anti-semitic perspective and should be treated as such when meant that way, but in this particular case, this coworker 100% means well. He just doesn't know that I, my parents, and even some of my grandparents grew up here.)

love how non jews and non chassidic Jews are just lumped together....
