   You are pathetically hopeless.

   My mother clipped that out of an Ann Landers column in 1968 and gave it to me. The point, of course, is that every generation thinks the same of the next generation. My generation accomplished so much back then, I expected so many great things from us. But we failed. We still have inequality, racism and bigotry, and misogamy. At least 30% support and believe a lying hypocrite that would take our freedoms away. Some of us believed another who gave us ‘trickle down’ having to cater to the wealthy instead of most all of us thriving. Our future leaders are protesting and demonstrating. I hope they do better than we did.

   As can be seen throughout British history, the partition of Israel in 1948 was yet another British ‘plan’ that was not well thought out. The Israelis immediately called for Israel to be a ‘Jewish State’. Subsequent wars muddled the boundaries further, and Netanyahu’s policies of settling in land that were not be to be settled by signed agreements has made the situation what it is today. The Palestinian plan was to be patient and out populate the Israelis in a generation or two. Netanyahu cut off their rights, and settled their lands. Hamas became frustrated and desperate and made terrorist attacks. Netanyahu, in other troubles, seized the opportunity to shift from his crimes to defending Israel and wiping out Palestine.

   So, what is the answer? As the United Nations made Israel, they should step in and make Palestine. Make the borders that Israel might not like, but have to accept. This entire issue should be a United Nations work, backed up if necessary by U.N. Peacekeepers.

   The Ottoman Empire ruled as Ottomans, not necessarily as Muslims. Jews and Christians lived in relative peace. Though Muhammed taught to respect other religions, the Ottomans did so not for Muhammed, but for practical governing.

   So, if I rob a bank and then run for office, conservatives will get all the charges dropped?

   Biden has been front and center since October 7. Someone is not paying attention.

   Anti-Americanism is the conservative trait since 1774. Anti-Semitism, victimhood, vandalism, anarchy, chaos and whining are all conservative traits today.

   “woke”, much like ‘politically correct’, is simply showing consideration for your fellow American. conservatives try to demonize those terms. Do conservatives oppose showing consideration, or just oppose Americans?

    Biden has not turned a blind eye at all, and has pressured Netanyahu since the war started.
