Please get your facts right before you blame Israel for Hamas war crimes
Oh boy, please don't get all uppity for one incident as you, me, everyone knows that Israel is the clear front runner in war crimes against the Palestinians.

Nothing.
The salty snacks are too sweet and the sweet treats are bland and lack that butter-sugar punch. Regular potato chips are pretty hard to mess up that, but they somehow manage it with flavorless potatoes.

Hinoki smells awesome and looks 10 times better than Knotty Pine. There's only one home center in a 30 kilometer radius from us that sells Hinoki 1x4's and 2x4's. I recommend all to use it for DIY projects.

Normally I'd sympathize with the Palestinians, but their Hamas attack randomly killing so many civilians, so I've read, parading around spitting on half naked dead women from the desert party, so I've read, is too much. This is so strange.

Statement By The President Clinton On Most Favored Nation Status For China, 1993
I particularly want to recognize Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell of Maine and Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi of California. Their tireless dedication to the cause of freedom in China has given voice to our collective concerns. I intend to continue working closely with Congress as we pursue our China policy.
I wonder how many union jobs were destroyed by this?
President Clinton linked MFN to progress on human rights in China.
How's that workin out 20 years later?
