The Founding Fathers warned against permanent membership in lengthy alliances - they didn't mention temporary or short term alliances against an opponent.

The Founding Fathers DID go to war over interference in Trade, the War of 1812's major cause was a British attempt to restrict our trade with France.

I mention that because WW1 "Muh Kaiser" "Give up 3% of GDP from mostly Exports to Western Europe" whingers forget the VERY FIRST FING WAR WE FOUGHT WHILE THE FOUNDERS WERE STILL RUNNING THINGS was about our Freedom of the Seas to trade with whomever the FUCK WE DAMNED WELL PLEASED in the Atlantic and other Oceans of the World. So Lusitania my fat hairy ass.

Also: In a legal Blockade - you can sieze and return the ships and cargo from a neutral to a belligerent as another belligerent. What is ILLEGAL is to sink the ship of a neutral, warning or no warning.

Arson isn't made legal by trying to run an ad in the New York Times telling somebody you're going to burn their boat if they don't stop buying and selling from another customer you're having a dispute with. Whether that buying and selling is Wheat, Nitrates, Ammo, Horses, or Pink Plastic Lawn Flamingos.

"I told Sam not to sell to Tommy because I Franz am in a vendetta with Tommy, or I'd burn his yacht down. Well, Sam didn't stop selling to Tommy, so now I have the right to burn Sam's yacht."

Not how it works. In reality, Sam now has the right to beat the shit out of Franz for burning his yacht.

Oops, the War of 1812 was the SECOND time we went to war for our Freedom of the Seas when the Founding Fathers were alive and running things.

The first time was when we sent the USN to smack around Algerian and Libyan warlords for fucking with our ships in The First Barbary War. (1801-1805)

So BOTH of our first military conflicts during the lifetime of the Founders were over Freedom of the Seas with plenty (or all) Military Action taking place abroad far distance from US Shores.

So let's smack the shit out of the Houthis just like Jefferson would.

I've answered every question.

Are you a person, an AI, or a propagandist?

Actual person in small town IL. Any other brain busters?

It's difficult for me to imagine you as a person.

Somebody, perhaps you, said I didn't live in Indiana - that it's not as nearly religious and ignorant as I experienced. It absolutely was. I really knew an engineer that believed in Biblical literalism - creation, Noah's flood, everything was LITERALLY true, and a secretary that said she would pray for my soul, because if I didn't believe in a god, I must be a satanist.

I'm not kidding when I say I envy you. I have to trust you at your word, that you are indeed human, but we are totally different. Maybe you are human, and I'm not. I've entertained this possibility years ago, but you don't have the capacity to do this, do you?

I have talked to every nation our nation has attacked or threatened to attack - every single one. You have no idea what our nation is doing. These people have no idea what they can do to stop it, and I'm helpless to prevent it, and you're joining the government. I know people who have had family murdered by my government - how do I stop it?

I wanted to know, and I do now. Ignorance really is bliss. You have no clue. It's just horrifying, and I would expect our "rulers" to know exactly what they are doing.

WookieMan says

You're losing it dude.

Yeah, I am. Ignorance is bliss. Don't do what I did, remain ignorant. Knowledge isn't power, it's just crippling. Ignorance is easy, and I went through the process of learning, what a stupid mistake that was. It was a lot of effort, what an asshole stupid shithead I was to do it. I prefer to be a drone - I can't be sociopath and I can't return to ignorance. It's a one way street, and perhaps there is no exit from it.

I can't keep this going. Have you met your House Rep? Yes or no? Until then I don't care what you type here. You have control and you've given up to internet diarrhea for a tiny crowd. DO SOMETHING!!!!! I do, you won't. You think you can't, I think I can and am. You're too old to behave like this. Next time I'm out in the Bay Area, I'll bring my old pack 'n play and you can take a nap.

Our government does things so you're not dead right now. You don't have to like it. The positive far outweighs the negative regardless of what you want to rant on about. You STILL live here. If I was a Ukrainian I'd be gone by now. No no one wants to hear bitching with no action. That's you. Enjoy your existence in misery. That's what it is.

RayAmerica says

So what does the above prove? It proves that the 'blessing' as mentioned in Genesis 12:1-3 are not for the PHYSICAL seed of Abraham, but for the SPIRITUAL

This is the biggest mis-understanding when it comes to the Bible, even among Christians. You'd think it's obvious that spiritual is always the focus, and trumps physical. But you have people quoting the paying taxes to Caesar as a mandate to blindly obey government, despite the Bible clearly separating religious and secular authority, spiritual being higher. And you have Jesus routinely flaunting Jewish "spiritual" laws.

Jesus says His children are those who believe, not those who have a specific DNA strain. The only people I know who've ever said that are eugenicists(see Hitler).

Who is it that the Scriptures clearly declares to be Abraham's seed? Is it Israel, or is it someone else? You decide:

"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." - Galatians 3:28,29

Are these Jews anti-semitic because they oppose the secular/political State of Israel?

Neturei Karta: The Orthodox Jews who oppose the existence of Israel



Most Jews around the world support the state of Israel and the ideology of Zionism, but there is one ultra-Orthodox Jewish sect that denies Israel’s “right to exist” and supports the Palestinians.

Who are Neturei Karta?

Neturei Karta are a group of Orthodox Jews who refuse to recognise the existence or authority of Israel which they say is against the Torah and authentic Judaism.

The group was founded in Jerusalem, Palestine, in 1938 and was established for the purpose of fighting Zionism.

Although their numbers are small (5,000 or more), they say the number of Orthodox Jews who believe in their anti-Zionist ideology number in the hundreds of thousands.

What is their objection to Israel?

Neturei Karta opposes Israel because it does not believe that the Jewish people have the right to self-determination, and because only God can restore Jewish sovereignty in the land of Israel by bringing the Messiah.

They say the Talmud teaches that Jews must not use force to bring about the establishment of a Jewish state before the coming of the universally accepted Messiah from the House of David. Furthermore, Jews should remain loyal citizens of their countries and should not attempt to leave the exile which God sent them into ahead of time.

Neturei Karta also says that Jews are not allowed to dominate, kill, harm or demean another people and are not allowed to have anything to do with the Zionist enterprise.

Judaism is a religion of thousands of years, they say, while Zionism is a new movement of just over a hundred years, created by non-religious Jews who aspired to transform the religion into nationalism and have rebelled continually against the Almighty’s commandments.

Why do many Neturei Karta members live outside Israel?

According to Neturei Karta, some of the reasons include: ideological refusal to live under the illegitimate heretical “Israeli” regime; being exiled by the Zionist government for their insistence on remaining independent; or being unable to live a normal life due to being persistently harassed, incarcerated and even physically tortured by the Israeli authorities.

Are they heretical?

Although most Jews disassociate themselves from Neturei Karta, they do not question the fact that they are Orthodox Jews. On the other hand, Neturei Karta says it is Zionism that is heretical to Judaism.

What do they think of the Palestinians?

They say true Jews are against dispossessing Arabs of their land and homes and, according to the Torah, the land should be returned to them.

Neturei Karta say they deplore the shedding of Jewish and non-Jewish blood for the sake of Zionist sovereignty and they favour a peaceful transition from the present Zionist rule to a non-Zionist entity.

The Neturei Karta regret that the Zionist state has usurped the holy name of Israel and that the Zionists so often claim to speak in the name of the Jewish people and assume the right to act on their behalf.

Neturei Karta: The Orthodox Jews who oppose the existence of Israel

And since the Unitarian-Universalist Society of Duluth supports the MN Dept of Ed Social Workers scheduling surgery for Transkids, so look at "all the GOOD Christians of the world standing for Trans People."

Already addressed the bullshit above.

Yep, also explained by Paul in Romans, Supercessionists most disliked chapter of the Bible. Even though the Book directly addresses the issue that All Israel Wil Be Saved, the Status of Gentiles and all members of the Church in Christ regardless of their origin, promises of eternal life against the still extant promises made to the Hebrew Sons of Jacob, they prefer to pull out of context quotes.

Just like a woke Church uses some vague command to be good to each other to explain why LGBTQ123C+ must be celebrated, while ignoring the in context, plentiful passages about Homosexuality being an Abomination in both Testaments.

Grafted on wild branches are in the Tree of Life.

That has nothing to do with the unconditional convenant of Israel granted to the literal descendents of Abraham.

Where's the regurgitated PressTV Propaganda from Syrian Girl and Ryan Dawson? Coming on 24 hours here

margarita bar israel thing happening?

Read Revelation 7 and remember that in the last days 12,000 people from each of the twelve tribes of Israel will be sealed. This makes it clear that God is not finished with the Jews, nor have Christians replaced Jews. In fact the church will not be present on earth at that time, God is coming to rescue the church prior to the Revelation Judgements.

Syrian Girl: Makes Claim about King of Jordan

What about the British Royals? What was their name prior to their adopted name Windsor?

The roots of the British Royal Family's German heritage can be traced back to Queen Victoria's mother who was German. Queen Victoria married the German Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. As a result of this union, their children and subsequent generations inherited the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha name. The German connection had become an accepted part of the royal identity in Britain, but the outbreak of World War I in 1914 challenged the perception of their German heritage, hence the politically motivated name change to Windsor.

RayAmerica says

Something long and German.

But I don't see how this makes Syrian Girl correct. In Arab countries, just like in Europe, the Inherited Lines are associated primarily with the Paternal Line.

Elizabeth the First is considered of the House of Tudor for being the Daughter of Henry VIII Tudor, not a Boleyn like her mother Anne was.

Similarly, the King of Jordan is a Hashemite Husseyn, because of his father.

Just like William and Harry are of the House of Windsor because their Father Charles is, not of the House of Spencer like their mother Diana.

It certainly seems like the Biden Administration and Israel are provoking another Proxy War. Why? Is this a ‘Wag the Dog’ election strategy to prop up the Biden Regime? Perhaps. But there is a simpler dot that we could connect. ...

Two weeks ago, Secretary of State and rabid neocon Anthony Blinken announced Iran was only two weeks away from getting nukes. Remember that. ...

Could Israel be provoking Iran into throwing the first punch, and lunging right into the American bouncer? Does it have to play out this way, with Iran attacking first, to make it politically possible for the Biden Administration to start its next Proxy War against Iran?

More Tantric Iranian Sword Rattling Theater, or is Israel gonna get the bigga badda hypersonics where it hurts. I wouldn't bet on it.

Ceffer says

it could be that the Democrat pollsters are recommending paying off (with cash, Bitcoin, etc.) enough of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the mullahs in Iran to at least hold off until after the election.

Problem is that it is so chaotic that its hard to control the hot heads in the region like Hamas zealots, so all this does is stop or delay a large scale attack not "isolated" attacks such as rocket attacks from southern Lebanon or Gaza.

But if the Dems could ward off a large scale attack then that will be a victory leading into November 5, especially with all the stock market jittery or volatility.

.

There's not much going on. The usual rocket attacks. I think so far there's a few injuries on the Izzy side.

On the Hezbollah/Hamas side, a wave of eliminations and chaos in their command structure.

There's a lot of weirdness in Iran too. Strange explosions AT their missile launch sites... interesting crackdowns.... arrests of dozens of suspects for 'helping the zionists'... etc.

The Ayatollah regime is deeply unliked by about half the population.

So far, a nothing burger.

But NO DOUBT that the Pro-Ayatollah State Department and Biden Regime generally is trying to bribe the Ayatollahs to be quiet for a few months and not use all their Obama billions.

May not have to bribe. Iran does not want Trump elected, as Trump will sanction and Kamala will likely grant more Obama bucks.
