While a huge settlement from the NYT to Israel would be great, I, not being Israel, would settle for a buck and discovery back to the NYT’s–looking for a decent metaphor here–shoe laces.

The problem is they poison the well from where jurors voters and bystanders arise from consider the one who shot the two israeli embassy employees how his mind came to said conclusions

Al jazeera al manar which is popular among the lebanese diaspora middle east eye is the more tabloid version of al jazeera

Turtler,
Thanks for your reply. It seemed to me that your original post almost advocated starting a Second Civil War, a war which would be terrible, but which could at some point be necessary.

Israel to bring a lawsuit against the NY Times in New York City – with its Jihadist Communist Mayor and Letitia James type people running things.

Now that’s funny.

@Selfy

Turtler,
If/when they regain control, will you also support Democrats assassinating Republicans deemed to be insurrectionists or Ultra MAGA White Nationalists (or whatever the phrase the FBI said was the greatest domestic threat)?

No, in much the same way I do not support assasisnating Kristofnacht, at least yet.

But I already predicted this flavor of gotcha, which is why I pointed out that I did in fact support the Obama administration assassinating Anwar al-Awlaki in spite of him having never received a trial and having been an American citizen and erstwhile “journalist” (albeit embedded far more directly in a terrorist network).

I recognize the threat and how it could be abused, which is why there can and should be safeguards. But I also recognize the threats and legal precedents that at some point in time enemy propagandists or those cooperating them become complicit in their crimes and valid targets.

Selfie at 3:51, you mean like the Dems already do? Have you been sleeping since Obama was in, at least?

Huxley, Kristof has been a dishonest hack for decades. this is his worst atrocity by far though.

So what are the chances of a piece such as this one appearing in the Western media?

“Interviewer attacks Israel, Lebanese Muslim MP pushes back;
“Lebanese MP Fouad Makhzoumi pushed back against claims Israel seeks civil war, blaming Hezbollah for Lebanon’s deepening crisis.”—

@Chases Eagles

Honestly Kristof is bad but he isn’t even the worst by far or top priority among the “journalist” terrorist propagandists and agitators that would deserve it.
