Tim Walz

[Al-O-Meter]

Skimmed your post and I’m just gonna say that boiling Hamas down to a mere Iranian proxy is a vast oversimplification and totally misses the core of the issue.

Palestinians were completely cut out of the process that directly impacts them and they had to do something massive and heinous to thrust the focus of the issue back to Palestinians, rather than the “peace deal” ABOUT them that marginalized them.

The sooner everyone can understand that there is no sustainable solution other than a two state solution, the better (but I am not saying it will be easy or smooth). Trump and Netanyahu engineered the Abraham Accords to further the one-state non-solution.

Hamas is an Iranian proxy group, and October 7th proved beyond any doubt that a two state solution isn’t workable. Ever.

Gaza and the West Bank have been an experiment that spanned an entire generation. In Gaza they had their own territory with no Jewish settlers, their own autonomous government, all the infrastructure they needed, foundations of industry, and enough of a stipend to make everything work.

Meanwhile, West Bank was the control, left to continue as an occupied territory with Jewish settlers, an Israeli security force, a pseudo-government, etc. This experiment ran for a full generation and conclusively proved which model was better.

The Palestinians in Ramallah, West Bank have a higher standard of living than Palestinians in Cairo, Egypt or Amman, Jordan. The *ONLY* Palestinians in the region with a higher standard of living would be those in Israel proper. Meanwhile, the two-state cohort in Gaza devolved into the worst standard of living in the region.

Those still suggesting a two state solution in the face of evidence are living in a fantasy world.

There has never been a Palestinian state (to suggest that Gaza - due to a violent Hamas coup/takeover which prompted Israel to blockade Gaza and essentially turn it into the world’s largest open-air prison - is a state is breathtakingly bad, saying nothing of your apparent signal that the situation in the West Bank is even close to tolerable), and the notion that the status quo can continue is remarkably awful.

The two peoples will either find a way to live alongside the other or die at the hands of the other.

What is with the left and these ice cream eating ******* politicians? They try and get their candidates on the fast track to diabetes and dementia so they can forget about their atrocities? I guess that makes sense.

Sources Allege Tim Walz’s ‘Aw, Shucks’ Persona Merely Facade Concealing True ‘Gee Whiz’ Tendencies

MANKATO, MN—Warning that if elected the candidate would show his sinister true colors, acquaintances of Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz alleged Tuesday that his ‘aw, shucks’ persona was merely a cover for his very real ‘gee whiz’ tendencies. “He may act all gosh-and-golly in front...

Tolerable compared to what? I’m comparing real places that exist. The people of Ramallah have it better than the people of Cairo or the people of Amman. If comparing a real place to an ideal that exists in your imagination justifies violent uprising then it will be forever war because a better consequence-free unreality can always be dreamed.

The two peoples will either find a way to live alongside the other or die at the hands of the other.

The two people will find a way to live alongside each other when the Palestinians stop attacking Israel. The alternative will see the children of Gaza given a world worse than their parents had, and the Gazan grandchildren given a world that is worse than that. An unending pursuit of hate and violence will not work out well for the Palestinians of Gaza and I disagree with those praising that path forward as the correct or justified one.

It is nothing concrete yet, but there are emerging rumors of some seriously damaging information about to come out linking Tim Walz to China. What is known so far is that Tim Walz has made more then 30 trips to China, and received payments from the CCP through Macao Polytechnic University. The FBI is currently refusing Congressional House Oversight Committee subpoenas on any information related to Walz and China.
