Harris' failure to answer the questions is a good reflection of the failure of the Biden-Harris administration to confront any real issues, other than to run away from them.

I’m more concerned about how they legally gained access to his phone… in the rest of the world police can’t even get access to any iPhone of suspected terrorists but Japanese police are somehow always able to find incriminating photos on the phones of perverts. 

He would have given consent to access his phone after being bludgeoned with a telephone book wrapped in a towel.

No it shows how not studying and not putting in the effort doesn't make you successful.

So your trying to say that only blacks and Hispanics are discriminated against and not Asians, is that what you are saying?

True. The discrimination against minorities argument fails real quickly.

War.

Despicable behavior by the neighborhood bully ... a plan to decimate the native population by a variety of means, including death of infants who cant access clean water.

War. And the propaganda that goes along with it.

Blue collar Americans and small town folk are tired of Biden's wars, bloated socialist government and insane woke ideology.

America is becoming dysfunctional and the voters will send a message to the establishment by choosing Trump.

100% mostly true.

It is highly likely Biden isn't even the disoriented Democratic party's candidate.

At the end of the day, this Biden administration is the most corrupt the US has ever seen.

Right - I'm pretty sure that if a conviction were necessary to render an insurrectionist ineligible for elected office no judge or lawyer would bother to give this case even a second glance no matter what they think of Donald Trump.

The Supreme Court is giving it a second glance.

Posted in: Strike kills 12 people, mostly children, in Gaza area declared safe zone by Israel See in context

Israel is to be commended for its conscious efforts to avoid harming any civilians who are not affiliated with Hamas or other terrorist groups.

This story should not even be in the news though, because this is a daily occurrence. Israel using its right to secure its borders and protect its citizens, and Hamas using civilians as human shields.

It seems not enough people are upset with Hamas' barbaric acts, so as a conclusion to Israel defeating Hamas, these type of collateral cases have to take place.

This is what happens in war.

The US has been through this before. Radical Muslim terrorists committing mass murder.

In this case, burning bodies, decapitating babies. Mass rapes. Disgusting acts of a group of people who rightfully are being exterminated like vermin need to be exterminated, I am grateful to Israel for saving innocent people from these sick genocidal maniacs.

Posted in: Israel-Hamas fight heats up in Gaza City, accelerating exodus of Palestinians to the south See in context

As to the Gazans, they will have the chance to make a comeback. Better, stronger, freer, more prosperous than they ever were when they were living under the iron fist of Hamas. Their children will receive education instead of terrorist indoctrination, they will be able to celebrate the miracle that is freedom. God bless the IDF for giving them such a chance.

Nicely put.

And this is another benefit Israel brings to the region. The opportunity for freedom. The Arabs (the proper term for the Gaza people) will be freed from the grasp of their oppressors, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the PA.

History will show how Israel saved those who wanted, or needed to be saved.

"Netanyahu Says Israel Is 'Nation-State Of The Jewish People And Them Alone'"

oh wow! A smoking gun!!!

He wrote this quoting scripture in Hebrew so the fewer western news would pickup on it.

He wasn't stealth enough to hide it from you though1 Funny.

Anyway, back to the reality as below

Support for the war remains strong inside Israel, where the focus has been on the fate of the more than 240 hostages taken by Hamas and other militant groups.

Israel has the time and patience for the slow removal of Hamas. Being on the right side of this matter, it is a daily watch of Israel handle this process, and knowing each day Israel is getting closer to its goal.

Loving it.

That would be like giving Hitler one!

I guess if you believe Germany is involved in Israel's self defense,

Netanyahu is a racist, he has over and over called for a Jewish only state.

Comical.

Not the multi ethnic and religious state most Israelis want.

Israel is already multi ethnic.

He has orchestrated massacres he openly called for the killing of every man woman and infant.

You're talking about Hamas' leader; obviously a typo.

I commend Israel for allowing civilians to evacuate areas where Hamas is hiding and storing weapons. This is a blueprint for how an altruistic country conducts self-defense.

Even though Palestinian fanatics are endlessly and intentionally bombing Israeli civilian populations with no warning (read:war crime), Israel is taking great care to keep collateral damage at the minimum.

Netanyahu deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

Posted in: Israel fights Hamas deep in Gaza City and foresees control of enclave’s security after war See in context

5 million Palestinian refugees living in camps throughout the ME that under UN and international law have the right to return home.

You really don't care for these people though. There is a humanitarian crisis in Yemen where almost 5 million people have been displaced in the last 6 years, but that is not an issue because it is the result of an Arab in Arab conflict, and you don't get to swing your anti-semitic banner for that conflict.

The truth here is, there is nothing your words of hate will do to stop Israel from grinding Gaza into dust and sweeping all the evil into the sea, never to be seen again.

I can do something. I can write to my representatives and express my support for Israel, as I get to watch Israel slowly exact sweet revenge over the next many months, while reading your whining here. Israel will not be stopped until it does away with every last one of them.

Please keep it up Ken.

Do you agree that the West Bank is Israeli territory? That's implied by "absolutely."

Nothing to disagree about. It's Judea and Samaria. Of course it belongs to Israel.

Who else would it belong to? Not any Palestinian faction. The area never belonged to any other country. Jordan had illegally occupied it until Israel gained what is rightfully theirs.

End of story.

Israel is left with no other choice.

Hamas brought this war to Israel, and Israel is going to bring the destruction of Hamas to Gaza and other Israeli territories such as the West Bank.

Blinken, however, said “it is our view now that a cease-fire would simply leave Hamas in place, able to regroup and repeat what it did on Oct. 7.”

This is the key point. Never forget that the only reason Israel has to eradicate Hamas and other terrorist groups is because of the sickening ideology behind the Hamas attack on innocents.

Any military operations in Gaza are solely the result of those attacks. Yes, civilians are suffering on both sides. But the most important objective is for Israel to eliminate the cause of the past, and potential future attacks.

Posted in: Lebanon's militant Hezbollah leader threatens escalation with Israel as its war with Hamas rages on See in context

A bit reductionist and hysterical. Very rightwing North American podcast. 

From which podcast did you hear something similar?

There is a more adult approach.

I won't hold my breath because I'm presuming the more adult approach is the one you will claim to take. Let'S see where your circuitous argument goes.

Israel has a right to defend itself but criticizing its conduct in how it defends itself does not make someone pro-Hamas. 

I was right!

Let’s not be like children here.

Then why do you act like a child?

Insulting me from the start, proclaiming your adult approach, and then trying to slip in your reductionist conclusion.

It is obvious you are not well-versed on this topic; especially with your passive-aggressive tone.

Quite hysterical.
