"Sure, let's go all the way back to the Hittites while we're at it" No, just back to the itbach al-Yahud "extermine the Jew" campaign. I know you want to tell the story that in 1948 the Palestinians were just minding their own business when all these Jews they had never heard of popped up out of nowhere to start attacking them and robbing them for no reason."You especially do not get to deploy the "antisemitism" claim against legitimate criticisms of Israel." I am not. But you don't get to pretend you are "legitimately criticizing Israel" when you are just your garden-variety antisemite.

Considering the outcome, I think Rabbi Charlie needs to engage the entire U. S. population in their active shooter drill program.

An captured ISIS recruiter who specialized in recruiting operatives in America and Europe said that they recruited Europeans who were already a part of the criminal element, because they had the necessary black market connections to get weapons.

In America, they could recruit anyone, because the access to guns issue wasn't a factor.

All Hat No Cattle is based in Costa Rica. I think the access to affordable healthcare was a big factor.

You notice how, after getting out of that shithole and seeing the way real Americans live, TFG didn't run back to NYC on January 20?

Of course, some of that may have been the stupid, stupid belief that Desantis would shield him from out of state legal authorities.

He didn't go back to NYC because he rightly noticed that 90% of New Yorkers hate his guts. Of course he may have been tempted to move to Florida by its remarkable density of strip clubs, pawn shops, and bugs as big as a dog.

Mom at least was *very* politically engaged. Never ran for anything herself, but she was involved in all sorts of dem (and a left-leaning independent) campaigns. Often with a toddler in tow. And then there's her "union troublemaking" as she phrased it. All 3 kids registered to vote within the week after their 18th birthdays. My brother *on* his 18th. Dad voted, but that was about the extent for him. He must've had other qualities she appreciated, at least for a decade or so.

Malik means "king" in Arabic. It's a fairly common name.
