Process Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 8 minutes ago, Joe Ferguson forever said: We do. I believe the best place to start is attaching lots of strings to money we send to Israel. Like puppets...They have no self control without it and little decency. But kidnapping or killing civilians is bad and counterproductive. See Russia/Ukraine. btw, anti semitism isn't cool either. What I said wasnt antisemitism. Just the truth. Americans only see one side to the story. Neither side is right. The whole thing is sad, and will not end well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please explain to me how Iran not having the $6 billion means that they were able to do this attack because they had the $6 billion even though they don’t have it. I am pointing out that the specific claim that the $6 billion from the deal funded this attack is wrong because Iran has none of that money and none of that money has been spent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean they don't have it? You don't think that Iran has $6B? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should be paying attention. The US has been supporting Israel for decades. Because they're a small country surrounded by hostile Muslim countries who have actually stated they want to eliminate. The only puppets are you libs who are being told to support the Palestinians because the Israeli government is right-leaning. 14 minutes ago, ChiGoose said: They don’t. Iran as a country doesn't have $6B, or they don't physically have the $6B in (to them) found money the US just gave to them? Not that it would take anywhere close to $6B to fund Hamas.

Submarines accompanying cruise ships have no military significance. The reality is as it has always been. Iran funds Hamas. Hamas runs this to the 50 year anniversary of Yom Kippur.

And if anything, I'd figure the subs preventing docking at those ports did it out of safety for the cruise passengers. So what's your take? You would be more in the know.

It means we cleared customs at Haifa, where I took pics of this golden dome of some religious group with an amazing garden on the hillside from the top deck. And we never made it past customs. They turned us around because another war was starting then. I don't think it was a tribute to Old Notre Dame. Anywho, There were many ships being escorted. Do you believe hamas has subs? Do u think the Israeli ones are nuclear? "While our loyal faculty lie drunk on the barroom flloor...Rah,rah,rah" So this brings back memories when I subscribed to mad magazine.

I'm inclined to agree with them on that point. How long can you keep a fish in a wet hankie? 2 million people in a 140 Mike square area? 16 years is a long time. How could Israel NOT see this coming? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
