The US president is making Israel wait a week to conquer all Gaza because he wants to be there to get off on it.

Trump to attend Gulf summit during Saudi Arabia trip​

"
US President Donald Trump will take part in a summit with Gulf leaders during his visit to Saudi Arabia in May, Axios reported on Saturday, citing American and Arab officials.

Trump will travel to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from May 13 to 16 as part of a Middle East tour focused on defense, investment, and emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, the news website reported.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman plans to invite the leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries to Riyadh for the summit on May 14, it said in the report.

The GCC includes the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar."

There's posts on other forums from family members of people still trapped in Palestine/Gaza.

And they describe a literal genocide, whoever is still alive is on the edge of starvation.

People using rocks to spell SOS and HELP.

And these fucking Izraelis, specifically this Netenyahu government, their insane sense of entitlement and arrogance.

The way this fucking guy walks around, even when he's here, like he's King of the World.

They literally laugh at us.

With this attitude, that they can do whatever the fuck they want to whomever they want, whether it's ethnically cleansing the Palestinians or killing a sitting US President.

No fear of any consequences unless they allow one of their own to actually be held accountable.

They'll probably stage some event.

A near miss on Trump's life, blame it on Iran.

He really shouldn't go.

How do you figure? See, the thing that prevents you from being a truly useful idiot is you protest your neutrality and your non-cultist status, but you never let up. Ever. Which not only makes you a liar, but an obvious liar.

Trump knows he's more useful to Israel if he isn't as obvious as you. See, that's the difference between you and Trump. I'd play poker with you in a heartbeat.

Pig Out, Trump... it's the Libertarian Way.

Why do you persist in this Swordsmyth toxic bullshit? The libertarian way produces politicians who have little or nothing to sell. Are you incapable of seeing that or is it just too hard to be snarky about it?

It's a viable comment. Especially considering the LIbertarianism of the past 60-70 years.
Trump or any other official can act in their own economic self-interest to the fullest extent of the performative law.


"Libertarians start with the presumption that the unfettered market is best. They are less concerned with the legality or illegality of quid pro quo deals. The primaryissue is whether the transaction furthers economic freedom. A bribe to get around a costly regulation would be approved, but one to induce the police to harass your competitors would not."
They argue that market actors who pay bribes to avoid complying with the rules, to lower tax bills, or to get favors, limit the harm that the state can do and consequently enhance the benevolent operation of the free market as a locus of individual freedom. Although in the libertarian view the best solution would be a drastic cutback in the state, bribery can seem a second-best technique that permits free markets to function in a rough and ready fashion."

"After covering Hayek, Koppelman discusses what he considers the “corrupted” (p.4) versions of libertarianism promoted by Murray Rothbard, Robert Nozick, and Ayn Rand.¶48 Koppelman reports that some self-identified libertarians he spoke with suggested he omit the chapter discussing Rand and Rothbard because those individualswould be “offended if you confuse their views with Rothbard’s or Rand’s” (p.110). Hekept the chapter in the book because Rothbard’s and Rand’s “romantic absolutism”(p.110) dominates libertarianism in popular culture and politics. In one survey, Americans cited Rand’s Atlas Shrugged as the book that had most influenced their lives,second only to the Bible."

Are you stupid? Even Yale admits libertarians come not to praise corruption, but to minimize it.

You're really reaching for a brush to tar us with. Why?

Let's just stay on topic, it's going to be a BIG WEEK AHEAD for this thread.
I shouldn't have made the snark. Mea Culpa.
