    I had two Christian friends that were 1st or 2nd Gen immigrants. Both from Iran. Stated their families fled due to death threats.

    saw an interview by a former cIA operative not long after Oct 7, he said Hamas went in with small arms / AK's - so the images of destroyed vehicles by rocket fire / missiles was from Israeli helicopters
    don't know if that was true or not.
    no way could anyone find the video now with the media and how it shuts down anything anti Israel or anti Biden - thats why they want to ban tiktok - its the college students go to news source

    the UN are saying Israel are blocking their investigation into Oct 7
    why would they do that unless they have something to hide?

    just saying

    did find this article & a few links from within it

    Cry Freedom - good movie
    can understand why Mandela was the way he was, but he emerged from prison as an amazing human being and statesman

    100,000 at a rally
    doubt Biden would get that many if you added up the total from all of Bidens rallies combined
    lucky he still has the deceased vote to count on n Nov

    Just look at this: https://www.usnews.com/news/best-st...ruption-trial-this-time-it-involves-gold-bars. If you got caught once, why do it a second time? These politicians think they're invincible, or what? The first time, he got away with it. Now, I think history will repeat itself. Even if he got convicted, he could appeal it. Because, as explained here by this law firm, the conviction can be reversed if there was juror misconduct or insufficient evidence. And I think his lawyers can look for something like that in this trial.

    Yet your country is not sustainable without US and USA corporations and charity groups feeding your people. Once your country can wear big boy pants and sustain without foreign aid, get back to us. Oh and the countries that rely on foreign aid are very corrupt, watch your own bobber before you preach.

    So the former state flag was retired at the state capital over the weekend, went for a pontoon ride on the lake last night. Every single place on the lake that has a flag pole has the old Minnesota state flag flying. Willing to bet every one of the homes that has the old flag flying has loaded firearms as well. Come to visit Minnesota it is clean and safe just stay away from the Twin Cities, I just want people to know that Minnesota is not represented by the idiots at the capital, that is the Twin Cities voters, that area of the state is their's and look how that is going.

    This all began when we sat on our hands while politics was brought into our education systems. It was a slow process and we did nothing about it until it was too late. I had absolutely no idea what the political leanings were of my teachers and professors. There was no political slant. Now, the students tend to settle in urban areas and they have been indoctrinated since grade-school. Minnesota is really no different than Illinois, California, and the list goes on. Get away from the major metro areas and you find sanity and conservatism.

    Sad part the educational cancer is spread to rural Minnesota thru state mandated education curriculum to get funding for the school districts. The young new teachers have been brainwashed in liberal arts colleges and they bring their leftist views to class rooms.

    Little town I live in is very conservative you can not buy a condem in town, you think they are going to tolerate a wet behind the ears teacher telling students that they can be any sex they feel like? My neighbor got elected to the school board, as soon as he was sworn in he pulled his kids from the school, said they would be back when the issues are fixed.

    Cut that in half, because Hamas would never lie, and chuckle heads will find anything to align with their prejudices. You hate America and what we stand for yet you have no problem with an American website.

    @Naas Just did a basic search and all your posts are in the politics thread. More proof that people that don't hunt or contribute to anything besides this Dogshit thread should be booted. Or better yet cancel this thread and have the Trolls piss off

    Does he realize that it was Dutch then English ruled in SA not the USA. That the reason the USA came about was to escape English rule.
    Then they get their "native racial " rule and it's corrupt as all get out. Lets talk brutality in Africa when it comes to tribes and the destruction, brutality and mayhem they inflict on THEIR NATIVE COUNTRYMEN.
    BTW
    Absolutely no different than what North American tribes did to each other LONG BEFORE "white imperialist " got here.
    SAME STORY ACROSS THE GLOBE since the human race developed and became self aware...or God got ticked off and kicked man out of Eden, take your pick
