    If this writing on posters was a solo event then it would not make national news. The issue is that it is just one event in a long string of antisemitic behavior at Harvard by administrators and students making the entire college environment threatening to Jewish students. This problem is also mirrored at other “elite” universities in the U.S. — noting there are federal complaints against several universities for their hostile environments. At the same time many top alumni have dropped their donations to these universities due to these problems.

    Are you going to tell me that if this type of hate and abuse was directed towards black students on campus there would not be a national uproar and demand for immediate action to stop it?

    Those who don’t think this antisemitism on campus is a problem haven’t been paying attention.

    Well, admittedly, I have no clue on the matter to be completely honest. I never understood the whole anti-semite thing. I have several friends that are Jewish... they make lots of jokes about being Jewish, but other than that... I mean a person's a person. I guess I am clueless. I have not talked to any of them since the Oct 7 thing though. I should actually.

    And here's another thing GWB... and I am only pointing this out because it... well... merits being pointed out.

    You are obviously extremely passionate about both Israel and Ukraine. Right? Right. It's a good position. The right position.

    Now no one here thinks Trump will end these things on day one as his dumb ass says... but one thing is for sure... Biden is not ending them yesterday, today, or friggin' tomorrow. So.... why wouldn't you want a regime change in the U.S.? Lets hold Trump to his word. Of course he won't get it done, but there's a hell of a lot better chance with him than there is with Joe.

    Are you gonna argue with me on that too?

  5. And if trump goes back on his word like he did repeatedly in his first presidency.....then what.... you gonna shrug your shoulders and say "ooopsie!"

    A U.S. president is not going to end the war in Ukraine or in Israel.... If Russia gave a fuck about what the U.S. president thinks or does he never would have invaded..... Israel clearly is ignoring U.S. if it conflicts with their own mission goals.

    trump could cut funding to ukraine and it would end the war quickly becuase Russia would just roll through... dont think trump hates that result.

    trump moved hte embassy to Jerusalem... so I think he is as zionist as biden...dont think he will do anything to stop what is going on there.

    MAGAtards conveniently forget what Dump got impeached over the first time, or his Helsinki fiasco, or his Russiagate shenanigans, or....

    They also forget dude greenlit assassinations of Iranians generals and nuclear scientists, moved the embassy triggering Al-Aqsa mosque storming, undermined Palestine w/Abraham accords, tore up the Iranian nuclear deal re-instating sanctions, and on and on...

    Let's breakdown the above into three points:
    1. The MAGA GOP House is blocking further aid to Ukraine -- obviously supporting the Russian dictator Putin over our allies in Europe. The Biden administration and Democrats are supporting Ukraine. Hence if you support Ukraine then you should be backing the Biden administration.
    2. Despite criticism from parts of the world, the Biden administration is supporting Israel over the Hamas terrorists. I will note that the U.S. is taking the lead in attempting to arrive at a post-war peace plan which includes a two-state solution. Hence if you support western civilization over 10th century barbarism and a path to peace then it is clear you should be backing the Biden's administration.
    3. Trump claimed he could end the Ukraine war in 24 hours, Zelensky invited him to come to Ukraine and do so. In regards to Trump the term "regime change' is meaningful since he wants to convert our country from a democratic republic to an autocratic dictatorial regime -- in fact he stated he would do so on Day 1. Anyone who thinks that an narcissistic grifting blowhard -- who constantly attacks his perceived enemies while having 91 counts against him in four separate criminal cases while trying to promote an insurrection to keep him in power -- is somehow an appropriate choice as President really should re-examine their values.
    I never stated that Biden is a particularly good President. In fact rated him a "C" letter grade in previous posts while outlining the failures of his administration (Afghanistan withdrawal, etc.). However Biden clearly is a better choice than Trump as President if we want to keep our democracy intact.

    GWB... be honest. There has got to be someone... anyone, 1000X at handling what is going on than Biden is.

    You can NOT deny this.

    You gave him a grade of "C"? What is your grade on how he has handled our borders?

    Ya know we have no idea what type of weapons have crossed our Southern Border. Lets put the tons of Phentynal aside. That is nothing. Do you not think or believe the cartels know 100% full-proof routes, and the exploitation thereof to get anything across as they damn well please?

    Hey, any Administration is more than likely going to do exactly what we're doing now with regards to Ukraine and Israel.... but what you need to ask yourself is... what are you going to say when another 911 magnitude attack hits our own soil? Because GWB... if you don't think that's a very real possibility.... you are walking around in la-la-land. A "C"?!!! Wrong. Try an "F-" where the rubber meets the road.

  10. The bigger shock is your belief that trump is the better alternative to Biden and will fix the problems? When trump wins all he will care about is revenge on all those liberal enemies who tried to "frame" him and steal his election. remember trump always felt that as president he had the right to act without limitations.

    If you put a gun to my head I would take a muttering old fuck over a dictator in training who cares about himself only. Granted it is a shitty choice between two old men...
