Ok

Although it turned out there were some experiments with bleach aerosols.

Aaah. Magic-ed.


Is that what he meant? Who knows, who cares. Again you fall into the "If you're not with us you're against us" Sounds very nazi'esque to me.

Lol. I'm not the one who spends my entire time going on about 'the left'' . Don't make your story my story.

Just for interest sake is this you when you say something?

Thought has no place amongst brother leader's followers. I can understand why you would think this dangerous

You keep deflecting with the "I don't put anyone on a pedestal, but you do" line.

Right wing conservatives and the alt-right are very fond of this.

Look at the popularity on Facebook and youtube of the likes of Ben Shapiro.

And look at the time before his daughter nuked his health, Jordan Peterson. Criticise him and by god you would get a 1000000 replies of bUT AKshUAlly have you watched 70 hours of his youtube videos and read 2 of his books? How vacuous does ones ideas need to be that you can only understand it in such a manner?

You see it plenty, there is always a go to figure for them. Whether it is Pim Tool, Syxhenhammer or Andy Ngo, you see it in their commentary about how much youtube podcasts they have been watching and listening to.

Most right wing conservatives and the alt-right cannot find it in themselves to criticise Trump for anything. Even the most straight forward screw ups. Even when it is in his own words, there is always some magic justification that they exonerate him for.

The very idea that someone cannot find it in themselves to criticise someone, places that person on a pedestal. Above reproach.

There is a difference between having a go to figure that is reliable for good news and commentary vs. Putting someone on a pedestal.

I'm still not sure what the lefties problem is with Peterson?

I have found exactly the opposite. Most on the right do stand on their principles and criticize Trump whenever he does something wrong or for whatever BS reason. We had "right-wing" people on here just the other day that wanted to take his phone away as if he was a child.

Trump's strategy is pretty clear, trying to pressure Palestinians as more and more Arab states recognize Israel... It might work, it might also backfire...

https://apnews.com/c87ca011c2cd4321d587e9684dfb84e1

But rather than cowing Palestinian leaders into submission, those moves have only made them more defiant. President Mahmoud Abbas officially cut all ties to Israel and the U.S. in May and said the Palestinians would no longer be bound by any past agreements. The Palestinians have rejected the UAE and Bahrain deals as a betrayal of their cause and insist no other country has the right to negotiate on their behalf

I am so glad the war between the UAE, Bahrain, Israel and the USA is over. The Israeli bombing of Dubai was horrific.

Will they do Palestine next week and Yemen the week after?

Unlikely as Palestines are led by communist terrorists who won't come to a reasonable compromise.

And who even knows why Saudi have a problem with Yemen. I don't think there is enough anti Saudi sentiment to fix that mess. For the foreseeable futur Saudi will still be allowed to do whatever they want, because oil.

These deals, which normalise relations between Middle East Arab countries will indeed pressure Palestine, but at the end of the day, the actual fighting and war is a far more complex situation and is more protracted.
