I'll take a the Israel state over the mini sects of Palestinian terrorist groups everywhere, especially on the gaza strip. Not to mention all of the ****ing communist groups sprouting up.

I'm not taking any stance, just pointing out the error in Occult's post.

Why poke the bear? Have you been following all of the nasty backlash that's been going on since the announcement? He should have just left it alone.

The word subtlety just doesn't exist in Trump's mind. He reminds me of Donkey Kong.

I say we pin the violent protests on the people who are ****ty enough to commit that violence or at least question the validity of their stance. Maybe we should stop letting bears make our decisions for us. Maybe we should stop dictating what should happen in bear country. Maybe the city we put the embassy in is up to us.

Do you not understand?

Quote:
Used figuratively, the bear can be any person or entity with a capability like that of a bear to inflict pain or damage. During the Cold War, the expression was often used with Russia as the bear. But it means more generally, don't deliberately irritate anyone or anything that might make you sorry.

Do you not understand? I'm asking if we should allow countries to strongarm us into the decisions we enact.

Wrong.

I take that stance because I favor Judaism over Islam. It’s definitely a product of my bigotry. In fact, it’s because of my hatred for Islam that I don’t want Palestine to ever exist. That’s the core of why I took note of Chula’s comment and posted on it. I saw another opportunity to say **** Islam and I jumped on it. I hate that ****ing religion.
