Trump and Obama both ignored Gaza — at great cost The extremist group Hamas wants to fill the void in Palestinian leadership. US abandonment of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process has furthered its goal. https://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2018/5/15/17357914/trump-gaza-israel-peace-border-killings-jerusalem-embassy-hamas-palestinian-authority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japantiger 4,051 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Headline I believe is correct....I 100% agree with the policy. As to the details in the article, as usual, the left jumps the gun on conclusions, and blames Israel for terrorists deaths...even Hamas has admitted now that 85% of those killed were Hamas terrorists...sent there for one reason. Wonder if the leftist perpetual outrage machine will retract all there anti-Semitic handwringing from yesterday and put the blame where it lies?....with Hamas, a brutal terrorist regime that had mass Jewish murder on their mind. And Homey, why don' you tell me about how the parents of the child that was killed aren't to blame for carrying their baby to a known terrorist attack....

japantiger 4,051 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 It's been a good week for the mainstream (and by that I mean leftist) press and the Democrat party....they've come to the aid North Korea, Hamas and now MS-13... “MS-13’s humanity and victimhood explained” - Vox “5 reasons MS-13 are NOT animals” - BuzzFeed "How MS-13 actually empowers women” - HuffPo (my personal favorite...and here I've thought VOX didn't have anything meaningful to say) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an unarmed demonstration. Israeli snipers were methodically shooting unarmed demonstrators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. But it got poor reviews. This one was notable: "What distinguishes Rules is its use of xenophobia to bolster its legal arguments, and presumably tap audience's deep-seated prejudices."

I've found reviews to be fairly pretty accurate, especially compilation reviews such as Rotten Tomatoes. But you do have to factor in personal taste.
