    Just because Hamas calls for the extinction of Israel does not mean that they can make that a reality. They are, at this time and to date, have never been an existential threat to Israel. After 75 years, Israel should put on their "big boy" pants and deal with their own problems, instead of constantly standing in the lobby of the Capitol building with their hand out pretending that they cannot take care of themselves.

      Did this and Iran is instigating it and was backing it full force. Also the bident administration gave 16 billion dollars to Iran and probably part of these funds are going for terrorism so you can't find Iran and not fund Israel that is an ally that is trying to defend itself....
      Also the delusion of some of these foreign policy that sanctions will stop Iran from achieving a nuclear bomb.

    Rep. Thomas Massie _is_ a Republican, and like all party members allows himself to be tethered to that authoritarian party. He needs to follow Ron Paul’s lead and completely abandon both Republican and Democratic Parties. You never negotiate with those parties as they never have anything you want from their authoritarian position.
    So it’s easy, just vote and advocate for the anti-authoritarian, libertarian positions. It would never make sense to compromise with any authoritarian position.

Invade and change their name. Suddenly they become a whole new race of people that somehow belong wherever they invaded. This is crap. Europeans who speak European language are not Americans.

      The very inception of Palestine, not just Hamas has been based on the refusal of Israel to exist.
      Palestine has expelled or killed all of their Jewish citizens to this day and has confirmed their unwillingness to tolerate Jews even if not Israeli on their land.
      The state of Palestine has no excuse for continued existence, as from the very start they had no desire for an independent state except as a means to eradicate Israel and her people. Palestine without the existence of Israel would be partitioned by its neighbors.
