"Claims that 'Trump brought peace to the Middle East' are almost an inversion of reality. … He threw America’s weight behind Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s squeeze-and-ignore approach to the Palestinians as if the fundamental problem of people displaced and living under occupation would just go away."

1-Trump gives Classified Intel to Russia
2-Russia gives it to Iran
3-Iran funds Hamas & terrorists
Is that why Hamas knew how to break thru Israel's Iron Dome & security?
4-#GOPTraitors hold up all appointments to State Dept & Military weakening US
Do @GOP work for Russia or US?
Bowing to American Nazis (including some who are #NHL hockey players), the league has banned players from the on-ice display of support for the #LGBT community, including a prohibition on pride tape. This follows the league’s action last season banning teams from holding pride nights. Good to know where the NHL stands. Clearly hockey is not for everyone, at least in the NHL. #sports #hate #hockey #YouCanPlay

before i close this thread, consider this by WaPo's Davig Ignatius the shot:
"The Khashoggi case isn’t the first time the palace allegedly attempted to kidnap a critic. After one prominent Saudi criticized aspects of the crown prince’s plan to privatize Saudi Aramco [...] a Saudi plane arrived along with an official who allegedly tried to arrest the man as a terrorist. He escaped"

Can we just appoint a bunch of Kindergartners to the #GOP congressional seats? They'd get a lot more done and be far less embarrassing - even when they pick their noses and eat glue. Five and six year olds running the House would be an improvement!
“The dread Israelis are feeling right now, myself included, is a sliver of what Palestinians have been feeling on a daily basis under the decades-long military regime in the West Bank, and under the siege and repeated assaults on Gaza,” writes the Israeli journalist Haggai Mattar in 972 Magazine. “The only solution, as it has always been, is to bring an end of apartheid, occupation, and siege, and promote a future based on justice and equality for all of us.

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
