I’m an emotional liberal screaming into a lake or whatever you guys call it. Please don’t call me reasonable.

Reasonable in this context being someone who sits back and looks at what is going and says yea that’s alright? No thanks.

You’re not the one who has to go work today to hold the hands of kids barely into their 20s who will never walk again because DJT can’t handle his emotions. You get to be “reasonable” from a safe distance. Not all of us have that luxury.

Oh you read on the news that Iranians want him to liberate them? Why didn’t I think of doing that?

Whose news BTW? American media right? Same Iranians whose kids are being leveled in schools and hospitals? Of course American media told you they love it.

That they are enjoying the feeling of Trump bombing their bridges while they’re are probably on it. Threatening their power plants on which many of them depend.

This is 2026, You can find whatever information that fits your mindset if you look hard enough on the internet. I’m certain any of them who were under the illusion that Trump would make things better for their country have quickly become disillusioned.

But pls don’t call me reasonable. I find it condescending even if you don’t mean it that way.
The bold. I am about the Zohran comment you made - and the generality of what you post on this board. I find your post much mature and balanced than from some others here in your circle. Of course I know and appreciate your liberal inclinations and I don't begrudge you. We can't all have the same leanings and outlook about things in this life.

Freedom doesn't come easy. The Iranians appreciate that sacrifices must be made to free them from the subjugation they have endured this past 47 years.

If you read some of my posts in here, I've had to condemn Trump's actions in some way. I appreciate that governance is not for the faint of hearts and the "lilly livered". Politics is never a fair game.

Trump tried to send weapons to protesters in iran through the kurds

But since he is a betrayer who has fked the kurds over in the past, they kept the weapons

But let's say they got the weapons to the protesters. What would have happened other than the kind of breakdown we are experiencing in Nigeria right now?

We have armed fulani herdsmen, armed islamist agitators, armed bandits, armed biafran seperatists, all with their own agendas and making the country dangerous for law abiding citizens. Rogue states and movements are also arming them and we are all suffering the fallout.

This is the face of the USA. So what difference is there between trumps USA and a rogue power?

Add Gutenberg's invention of the printing press.The bible became widely available, translated into other languages apart from Latin, different interpretation distinct from the Papal Edicts came to the fore.
Islam is rigid. What's in the Quran can never be changed till the last day. Every command is eternal and deviation will lead to a death sentence. Those who know where it might be in error never speak publicly about it. It's drilled into the adherents from cradle to grave that it's the unchanging word of Allah.
I'll give a historical context to covering the hair and body by women. An early aide told the prophet that he had seen his wife going out uncovered ( implication - other men feasted their eyes on her). So a revelation was brought down. Women must cover themselves fully from head to toe to avoid tempting the eyes of men .Strict adherents demand full body cover today.. Saudi Arabia, Taliban, ISIS etc

True to some extent, Deep. But we have to look at the enabling factors (if you like, environment) that allowed this (egalitarian societies) to thrive. Now, It was "rebellion" that made Martin Luther, particularly the posting of his 95 Theses in 1517, that challenged the Catholic Church's practices, especially the sale of indulgences, leading to a significant split in Western Christianity known as the Protestant Reformation. Luther's actions made the Church look inwards and ultimately birthed the age of "enlightenment". People realised that they can read things for themselves (especially the Bible), learn and not be spoon fed by priests and Popes - and the Church leadership agreed!

My point is that whichever way you want to look at it, the Judeo-Christian background still remain the catalyst that is at the root of the freedoms and egalitarian societies that we have going for Western Civilisation as it is today. Luther was a Christian and after him, many other Christian "activists" came to the fore to lead many of the "improvements" in Christendom and in Western Societies that we are enjoying today.

In contrast, the Islamic religion has failed to "evolve" (as you rightly noted) over the centuries - and the result of their backwardness is evident to all as it is today. What I don't understand though is how we have progressives in places like the UK, France and even now I hear Scandinavian countries, all embracing the evil that is inherent in present day Islam. Although I read that it was "paid for". I guess we can't explain away everything, there some things that are better left to time to reveal.

Fox News reports that among the people on the shortlist to replace Pam Bondi as AG are Jeanine Pirro and Alina Habba.

Habba, a former Trump attorney and former U.S. attorney for New Jersey who was disqualified by a judge, appears to have launched a campaign for the job. A few days ago, she posted a photo of herself with Donald Trump and JD Vance in the Oval Office, writing: “Always an honor 🇺🇸”

Re: covering of women, this predated Islam if I am not mistaken.
Covering up of women predated Islam to dine extent. The Arabs didn't have it until Umar bin Khattab saw one of the many wives of the prophets in the field.
Google Gemini.
Umar ibn al-Khattab and the Hijab
Before the revelation of the verses of Hijab (veiling), the Prophet's wives would go out to the fields for their needs.
The Observation: Umar ibn al-Khattab was very anxious for a divine order regarding the veiling of the Prophet's wives. He once saw Sauda (another wife of the Prophet) from a distance and called out, "I have recognized you, O Sauda!" to emphasize the need for privacy.

The Outcome: Shortly after this, the "Verse of the Veil" was revealed, instructing the wives to cover themselves.

Ijebos, it's actually a refreshing thing to do when you take that step and put in some effort to see the good in everyone. Hate destroys. Breeds divisions. Like I stated in one of my earlier posts, in the end, we all sleep on one bed (except maybe the likes of buda and some others, whom it appears, from some of their conversations, that they have the ability to split in two and still remain human grin grin grin) when we return from our work everyday. We should all appreciate the common things we all share and work to make people better.
This message seems very tone deaf from you.
You've spent considerable amounts of your time on this forum checking people's sexuality for reasons only known to you, or for reasons you may want to explore.
Then you spent Easter Sunday denigrating other people.
Honestly, you should take your own advice.

ben, I hope and pray to God that the opposite is happening - that these guys are being led by the Holy Spirit of Truth, to lead them to the Light that is the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. He did it for Saul, who later became Paul - and brought many to the kingdom of God. He can do it for Zohran and all the others who are living in the dark and in ignorance.

Let us pray!

Perfectly exposes liberal derangement and acknowledgement of Iran military being primitive neanderthals. Same goes to Hamas, Palestinians, Hezbollah,Al Qaeda, ISIS etc.
They have been targeting civilians firing at hotels, oil tankers, airports , residential, synagogues whole also using cluster munitions.
If IDF or USAF was to do the same you hit the roof.

Judicial Watch uncovers documents showing that FBI said the raid on Mar a Lago lacked probable cause.
Probable cause is the legal standard of having sufficient reason or evidence based on known facts to believe that a crime has been committed or that specific property is connected to a crime.

https://www.judicialwatch.org/records-show-fbi-objecting-to-mar-a-lago-raid/

Merrick Garland went ahead to approve the raid. Trump remotely watched as FBI goons ransacked Melania closet sniffing her underwear.

FBI/DOJ democrats have always treated conservatives with utmost disdain. Some J6 protesters were put in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day. Many were also denied bail during trial and subjected to lengthy sentences Over 300 were jailed for the crime of obstructing Congress,a crime that only applied to civil destruction of evidence as happened in the Enron case. The charge was declared void by the Supreme court.

Roger Stone home was raided in the early hours while they would have simply summoned him to show up. CNN crew livestreamed the raid , likely having been alerted beforehand.
Peter Navarro was put in leg chains and handcuffs for refusing to testify before J6 Committee citing the executive privilege that Trump had invoked.
John Eastman, Trump's lawyer had his iphone snatched and forced to face unlock it as he left a restaurant by FBI.
Michael Cohen had his office and home searched ,his files and documents protected by attorney client privilege taken away in search of any crime.
