The tyrant trump is sending $40 billion to this empty metal funnel head to bail out black rock and co.
while the economy is cratering to a huge crash
But one maga empty bucket head's pet peeve here is cat calling Barry

Javier Milel is a moronn? . He has reversed Argentina economic downturn generating a surplus. He defeated a leftist liberal govt so the media hates him like they hate Trump. Why didn't the brighter guys before him do the same.

This is ludicrous

People in Nigeria were Awori and Egba today
And became Yoruba tomorrow

Does it then mean that people should come seize their land because what they were called changed?

Make una reason without sentiment
The area was ruled by the Ottomans . After WW1 it became Mandate Palestine. Jews and Arabs wee all Palestinians.
Palestine Jews accepted the partion offered after WW2. The Arabs didn't and started a war in 1947,when the Palestinian Jews won they formed their state Israel. Transjordan became Jordan The Palestinian football team of 1940s was just Jews, ditto the Palestine newspaper,the Palestine Orchestra.
The Russians helped the Palestinian Arabs become a distinct race called Palestinians circa 1964. Arafat used to lie that they were descendants of the Philistines, they still lie about it today. They were just Arabs from Syria, Iraq, Egypt etc who stole the Philistine identity .
It's a long story of deceit , you can check some other threads on nairaland.
Their land was seized after losing a war they started. As Prophet Muhammad would say " To the winner goes the spoil of war". If the Arabs had defeated the Jews ,the story would be different. The pain of humiliation , losing to Yehudi hurts the Muslim nation , the Best of the people lost to the "fthy dirty Joos " . They celebrate nakba after losing a war in 1947. 1967,1973 etc.

** I have no sympathy at all for the Palestinians, whatever suffering they have ia all their own making. They would be like Singapore,Monaco or Malta but they are still stone age people digging tunnels using shovels .**.

Democrat strategist reveals that the 34 Alvin Bragg charges were just democrats getting back at Trump.

https://x.com/MAGAARMY_/status/1978523856911446516

Every cheque reimbursed to Michael Cohen was treated as a count/felony. 34 times.

Letitia James has never filed a mortgage without falsehood for 42 years. She lied about being married to her father, 2 homes in Virginia and New York apiece being her primary residences , 2 homes in Virginia being secondary homes while they were rentals and her NY home being a 4 dweller residential while it was a 5 unit . All these 42 years of lies enabled her to get lower mortgage rates .
The same crime she ccused Trump of ,only that Trump was getting loans from banks who did their due diligence and adjusted his valuations to mutual satisfaction.
If each repayment was considered a felony count , she would have 42 *12 + 5( 12* Every other repayment for the other 5 homes). Probably several thousand counts.

That country looks like the typical "Islamic" country from the outside

But when you go to Istanbul
You will be shocked beyond measure at how very liberal most of them are

I could count the number of women who covered their hair (mostly older ones /married ones, but still not so many)

I bought shayo freely

Igbo boys are running smal riots here and there over there (if you know what I mean tongue

Even when a Pakistani British bush girl went there during Ramadan and saw most of them were not even fasting, and those who were fasting were not fazed or forcing people to, she did a whole video on tik tok and twitter, and Turkish people were abusing her mad mad

While other cave mentality fellows from Somalia and Pakistan et al were abusing the turks saying they wan :"westernised" pass western ppl and other yama yana talk

That was when it clicked to me
That its not an umbrella
there really are MANY Muslims who dont fall into that bracket
there is a catch in this though. capital cities are where you have the bulk of the educated and exposed and wealthy. and where you want to put up a show for foreign investors and visitors. they usually have a large number of liberal muslims. so they arent a 100% mirror of the society .this can create a mirage to tourist foreigners. Afghanistan is a good example of this . stay in kabul [then] and you would think western values and liberalism had a secure foothold.

the pictures of teheran and kabul in the 80s where women did not wear hijabs have become a joke meme where it is pointed out that the rural / provincial area which make up far more of the countries are hardcore conservative

my old man worked in the middle east for 10 years in the 90s. in saudi arabia to be precise m we went there twice or thrice. he was posted to tabuk which was a city and at one time to dhuba - which was a village.

the deeper you go the more conservative it gets

enter jeddah and you might as well be in yankee [without the hedonism] . no real hijab enforcement. go to tabuk and there were religious police to make sure you prayed. in dhuba - if my memory serves me well a bunch of kids chased and stoned my sister because she removed her hijab when it was too hot .

This is true, no doubt

But it goes to show you that there is a significant liberal population in that country
Because the cities outbumber villages

Its not a "show" if thsts their daily lifestyle

They moved back to their land, which had been under occupation for centuries, to join those who had never left.
they were given a state which they accepted, the arabs living in that land rejected their own statehood.

Egypt took the crumbs that were left after the war and started as well as Jordan. In the 6day war, Israel took back that land and allowed the Palestinians to have it even if they dont owe the palestinians anything. those lands were taken from egypt and jordan.
So what makes it "their land"?

What kind of delusional thinking is this lmaoo

But democrats are snowflakes because they didn’t protect you republicans’ right to say racist stuff.

undecided
It happened. The Pentagon press corps walked out. At 4 p.m. sharp on Wednesday, decades of history, and the people who wrote it left the world’s most powerful building.

Dozens of Pentagon reporters turned in their access badges and carried their boxes, chairs, and notebooks out of the building rather than sign away their right to report. Nearly every major outlet, The Atlantic, Reuters, The Washington Post, CNN, CBS, ABC, even Fox News, refused to accept Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s new “media rules.”

The rules required journalists to promise not to seek or publish any information the Pentagon hadn’t pre-approved. Hegseth called it “common sense.” Trump called the press “disruptive to world peace.”

The journalists called it what it was: censorship.

“To agree to not solicit information is to agree to not be a journalist,” said The Atlantic’s Nancy Youssef, who’s covered the Pentagon since 2007. “Our whole goal is soliciting information.”

By 4 p.m., about 50 reporters walked out together, an image that will likely be remembered as one of the defining press freedom moments of the decade. They left behind their nameplates, maps, photos, and decades of institutional memory. all rather than sign a loyalty pledge to silence.

Some took to social media:

“Today I’ll hand in my badge,” wrote USNI News reporter Heather Mongilio. “The reporting will continue.”

The administration’s move has drawn comparisons to Nixon-era secrecy and McCarthy-style paranoia. Hegseth, a former Fox News host and Trump loyalist, has held just two press briefings in nearly a year, restricted access across the Pentagon, and opened investigations into leaks. Now he’s closed the door completely.

And yet, the journalists didn’t cave.
For once, the press stood as one.

This wasn’t a partisan story. It was about power, and those willing to question it.

In a time when truth itself feels under siege, the sight of reporters walking out of the Pentagon rather than bowing to censorship reminds us of something vital: maybe our institutions aren’t entirely gone.
Maybe, just maybe, we still have people inside them willing to stand up.

Democracy doesn’t die in darkness.
It walks out carrying boxes, and keeps reporting anyway.

Everybody knows the Jews have had a continuous presence in that area from the earliest written historical events. Archeologists have discovered countless artifacts carbon dated to the precise times their writings reveal.
The Jews have always prayed facing Jerusalem sunce they were expelled , scattered and the area renamed Paelestina by the Romans.Corruption for Philistines, a tribe that once inhabited there but are extinct.

The present day Palestinians have no genealogical relationship with the Philistines at all. They are just Arabs , most of them settled in that area as labourers for the Jewish Zionist settlers in the late 1800s.Zionism is the long held desire by the Jews to settle back in Judea and Samaria.
When the Islam prophet started his mission , he wanted the Jews in Mecca and Medina to accept him as one of their prophets. He adopted praying facing Jerusalem like the Jews have always done.They didn't buy it.
In anger , when he became strong enough in Medina he ordered the converts to pray facing Mecca. In other words he changed the qibla to Mecca from Jerusalem. His angst with the Jews was planted there and then. Which only increased after he captured Mecca. I won't go into the details of why but I'll just say the hatred between Muslims and Jews started with their prophet. It's reported about him saying he was unable to breathe after taking poisoned food prepared by a Jewish woman him. Contemporary Muslims blane his death on that poison.
The feud between Muslims and Jews us over 1400 years old.
I'll add , the feud between Muslims and other religions is also 1400 years old .

If they had any inkling of deductive reasoning, they wouldn’t need the leaked texts to reveal what everyone with common sense already knew. Meanwhile JD is blaming the people who leaked it. Not the ones who said it.

imagine someone wants to put your child in a gas chamber and you still support their party? Is there a living organism in those bodies anymore? I doubt it.

What you are saying makes no sense
And is based on religious delusions....

Yes at some point Jewish people settled there
But that doesn't make it their land
Because there were also people in times past before there was even an ethnic group called Jews who settled there as well

Its all you zionists and evangelical Christians that are deluded into thinking that land "belongs" to Jews to fulfill whatever delusional "prophecy" u got going in ya heads

That's the undercurrent for the support yall give this crooked regime

They have the most well documented history of being there. Unlike the Arabs,who never gave a hoot about Jerusalem until the Zionists started moving to Israel en masse.
I don't want to go into the details, if you check my post after your reply I've added some details
It may not be apparent to you that Muslims are allowed to lie to anyone as long as it advances the cause of Islam. The doctrine of taqiya. Anything from Islam can be truth or lies. When it comes to their feud between them and IDF, their reporting is usually lies or stretched out half truths.

Who started killing who might be a better question.
Just a question. When the Boers ruled South Africa under aparteid would they have kept quiet if Swaziland independent since 1968 had been raining rockets and missiles into their cities?

Lindell TV reporter Alison Steinberg: “Congresswoman Pelosi, are you at all concerned that the January 6th Committee will find you liable for that? Are at all concerned about the January 6th Committee finding you liable for that day? Why did you refuse the National Guard on January 6th?

Nancy Pelosi (obviously annoyed) “SHUT UP! I did not refuse the National Guard. The President didn’t send it. Why are you coming here with Republican talking points as if you are a serious journalist.


There is a grand jury in Miami investigating a grand conspiracy against rights ( Trump's rights ).
It's on record Trump had offered 10,000 -20,000 guardsmen on Jan 6 , noting there was likely to be a huge crowd. Pelosi and Mayor Buriell refused the offer and the fedsurrection ( with 274 plainclothes FBI) was executed.

Pelosi denying that, is continuing the conspiracy under investigation. She effectively extended the statute of limitations by a further 5? years. If the DOJ and FBI can connect any two or more people working to hide Clinton email scandal to Crossfire Hurricane to 2020 elections to Jan 6, Pelosi lies have all of them open to investigation and prosecution.

Valid fear tbh.
I had these same fears before anything happened. It was the logical thought progression for me. I just knew that this is what would happen if they let the propaganda manipulate them into voting our rights away. But they called us fear mongers and cry babies. I was 100% right.

Now that it’s happened, the fear is gone. Replaced by apathy. It’s inevitable now, so whatever happens happens. Every smart person should have their exit strategy planned out now.

our black brothers would argue to death that there isnt racism in the US. Or the fact that stylishly the US is shifting towards totalitarianism. One arguing with me to provide more information on the Secretary of the department of war wanting to gag freedom of information, and then later coming to agree that the dept had the right to go ahead with the gagging after confirming that the directive wasnt fake news.

I only pity for them..they think they are important in the eyes of these folks...
