    The state of Israel has existed since the Bible. They repatriated their homeland during Ottoman and British rule. The UN decide to divide them due to conflict. Israel was much larger before, stretching into parts of Jordan and Syria.  
     

    Who took what from who???? Do we need to discuss The Crusades?
     

     Jewish people's presence in what is now Israel predates the arrival of Muslims by a significant period. The history of Jewish people in the land of Israel dates back thousands of years, with the establishment of the Kingdom of Israel and Judah centuries before the rise of Islam.

    No it wasn't. It was created in the 1940s and is not in the same place as biblical Isreal.

    Something I found to educate those that think they know it all and call themselves Christians. This is from the Old Testament Book of Deuteronomy. How erroneous is this?
     

    The concept of the Jewish people as God's chosen people is most explicitly stated in Deuteronomy 7:6 and Deuteronomy 14:2. Deuteronomy 7:6 says, "For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession." Similarly, Deuteronomy 14:2 states, "For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people of his own possession, out of all the nations that are on the face of the earth." 
    In addition to these verses, other passages in the Hebrew Bible, such as Genesis 17:1 and Genesis 12:2-3, also allude to the special status of the Israelites as God's chosen people and his special relationship with them. 

    The people in the State of Isreal, which was created in the 40s by Europeans, is not the Isreal of the Bible;therefore they are not the chosen people. Research that

    They were attacked, kidnapped, raped, children beheaded, 1200 brutally murdered, but they are bullies?

    They attacked and treated those people like crap for years. They suck

    I used to ask an old man I worked with what some things were like during the depression. I knew there were soup lines and I jokingly asked him if he ate possum during that time. He said s$&t, it would have been nice to have a possum to eat. There were no squirrels, rabbits, or possums because people had to kill what they ate if they wanted meat. I’m sure the deer population took a big hit as well, but I can’t speak to that.

    To compare the Great Depression and a failed republican bill to add tariffs to Trump’s tariffs of today isn’t even comparable. 

    When did you become an economist?

    So what happened when greater losses happened under Biden during almost the whole year of 2022?  Were people happy at Fidelity then? Did you post in 2022 that people were cussing out Fidelity then?  

    He didn't work there in 2022.

    Look at his freaking name. It’s not fake. 

    This is the hidden content, please

    So you side with Harvard? If you do, I won’t respond to your future posts. 

    Trump cannot tell them what to teach. They are going to aniliate him

    Anyone who sides with this idiot or hamas needs to be deported. What if this guy had kkk ties and spread their hate to students against blacks, they would sing a different tune. Jews are not afforded these protections.

    The State of Isreal is wrong, wrong, wrong. Because people erroneously believe that they are God's chosen people, they think they can get away with anything. They are bullies.

    Donald Trump ordered the FCC to sanction CBS for two segments about Ukraine and Greenland Sunday night. I saw the Zelenskyy segment. Looked like journalism to me. If any of you support this move, how can you call yourself Americans. It is a blatant affront to the First Amendment. The Weasel cries like a baby when people complain about what his supporters say or do citing free speech. He pardoned hundreds for their “expression” of free speech on Jan. 6. If someone says something he doesn’t like he acts more like Putin than he does an American President. Can’t you see the kind of country he wants to try and create? It’s certainly NOT a democracy.

    Can you imagine what his followers would say if President Obama was acting the way he acts

    Mann Midterms around the corner...! Going to be interesting, D's have to move more center rather than more left... R's picked a easy candidate to beat, D's blew it with their far left agenda.. if they can somehow center themselves they have a good chance at flipping some key seats and gaining majority. We'll see

    I hope so.

    They should win if they pick a male to run against him. Both times he beat women.

    You never disappoint.  In your determination to "win" the discussion versus listen, you are comparing confessing to a murder to someone saying women LET him touch them.....

    I bet you think Karmelo is innocent🙄

    He never said that women LET him. He said that he just walks up to them and grabs their privacy parts. That's assault

    You have been seething to post this all morning. It took WWII to end the great depression. Nothing else had an effect. Roosevelt’s New Deal had very little effect. The tariffs didn’t cause the depression, they just couldn’t save it. You should talk to anyone who survived this terrible ordeal. You might even learn something real, not just headlines. Of course, you would probably thumb your nose at them since you disrespect the elderly so much.

    Yeah right. Economists said that  they were one of the reasons that deepened the Great Depression.. Does this sound familiar

    • Purpose:
      The act was designed to protect American farmers and manufacturers by making imported goods more expensive, thus encouraging consumers to buy domestically produced products.
    • Impact:
      The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act raised tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods, significantly increasing the average tariff rate.
    • Retaliation:
      Other countries retaliated with their own tariffs on American goods, leading to a decline in U.S. exports and a collapse of international trade.
    • Consequences:
      The act is widely considered to have deepened the Great Depression by making it harder for American businesses to sell goods abroad and contributing to a global economic downturn.
    • Criticism:
      Many economists and historians criticize the act as a policy misstep and a cautionary example of protectionism.
    • Later Developments:
      The act was eventually followed by the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act of 1934, which sought to promote more liberal trade agreements.

    In a private conversation.......give me a break

    I dated lots of women in my prime, and playing in a band since I was in high school I could tell you some wild stories of what women LET me do.......but I won't, because I would not want to hurt your "man" feelings.......lol

    To clarify, I'm still in a band, but have calmed down significantly.......

    So, that doesn't make it right. If I said I killed someone in a  private conversation. Would that make me less guilty
