    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    Again journalism is not perfect but I think we can make reasonable judgements about the case made by certain outlets or journalists based on their body of work and the quality of the piece in question. I never waded into the whole rape allegations because I was sure it happened on some level...

    Social Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapses after getting hit by a container ship

    I made a throwaway comment that triggered a few truck drivers, didn't expect to ruffle feathers with that one but then again maybe I should have given their reputation. But sure let's get back on topic and talk about how Pete Buttigieg taking paternity leave is why the bridge collapsed. I think...

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    I think this is an overly cynical take on journalism. Journalists aren't perfect but there's value to ones that cultivate anonymous sources who can give us a peek behind the veil. Its not perfect and we'll likely never know the relevant details in full and if we do get a better picture it'd be...

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    Sure but I doubt anyone would go on record to talk about the war right now. There's only so much we can know as of now and probably ever. But as you said it tracks with my thinking of how they're conducting the war. Nope, both those articles are linking to the PCPSR poll which I cited directly...

    Yeah I'm the sensitive one, not the guy talking about racism against pick up drivers. I'm guessing you drive one too.

    Come on now, I can tell when its needed and when its a pavement princess. Tell tale signs that a truck is actually used for its intended purpose: Standard or extended cab instead of crew cab Stock white paint Toolbox in the back Dirt on the tires Signs its a glorified minivan: Crew cab...

    Social Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapses after getting hit by a container ship

    Of course #notall but there is truth to what I said. For instance here's a study that asked about how pick up drivers, specifically F-150 drivers, used their trucks and here's what they found As far as pick up drivers being anti-social, I doubt that I can prove that to either of you but here's...

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    What are you basing this off of? The latest poll I saw recorded ~34% support for Hamas with more Palestinians saying they didn't support any party or didn't know. The leader of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, was projected to lose to Fatah candidate Marwan Borghouti.

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    Hamas is not the Palestinian people and I'm sure the US has no intention of working towards a Palestinian state that would have Hamas at the helm. That doesn't mean the Palestinian people should be deprived of self determination. After all the Zionists also committed terrorist attacks in the...

    Someone Explain This So Called Housing Crisis?

    I've read that article, its insightful. Its true some developers benefit from the regulations, I've made this argument many times on the forum. But I don't think they are the primary drivers of these regulations, they just happened to find that niche as a result of them. My impression is that...

    Social Candace Owens has been dropped from The Daily Wire.

    There's a lot of diversity among libertarian viewpoints but many did support gay marriage to the point that some variation of the slogan below became quite popular among a certain kind of libertarian. The point of rolling gay marriage, guns, and marijuana together was to present libertarians as...

    Someone Explain This So Called Housing Crisis?

    No, developers want the regulations gone so they can just build. The regulations are lobbied for by NIMBY homeowners who want to preserve their low density neighborhoods. Even when the regulations are removed developments are still stalled by excessive community oversight meetings and its not...

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    Israel's position is that it all belong to them but that's irrelevant here. I am asking you if you agree that settling in the occupied territories is illegal. Remember even Germany and the United States agree that settlement expansion is illegal under international law. I want to talk about...

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    You're dodging the point here. Its illegal to settle occupied territory, do you disagree with that? What about the West Bank? You keep ignoring that, they have an agreement with Israel and are subject to displacement and settlement. It betrays the lie you're pushing that if Palestinians simple...

    Someone Explain This So Called Housing Crisis?

    We have low housing supply in the major metro areas which are the engines of the economy. Yeah of course you can go buy a home in West Virginia but as you yourself said that's a small consolation. I don't think its the case that we have enough rental units. In the dense downtown cores there are...

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    I'm not talking about Gaza, I'm talking about the West Bank which you keep avoiding. The West Bank is internationally recognized as occupied territory, therefore the Palestinians there have a right to resist the occupation which displaces them and allows settlers to commit violence against them...

    Eugene Bareman: Izzy's adamant that he must fight for a title, we are ready while waiting on DDP

    Strickland vs Adesanya for a #1 contender's match would be fun. Sean won convincingly last time but I think Izzy will come better prepared this time and it'll be more competitive.

    International Hamas launches surprise attack on Israel; Israel has declared a state of war. Vol. VII

    Protecting from future attacks does not entitle Israel to take land via conquest and to settle it, that is against international law which is why even the US and Germany recognize the settlements as illegal. But again, not surprised that you're quick to make excuses for Israel's breaches of...
