  1. I suppose you’re not aware that this thread was originally intended for what was going on in Gaza, but then, when Israel started bombing Iran someone had the bright idea of changing the title and allowing the Israel/Iran shit to be posted in here under the title of "Isreal vs Everyone," which is an add-on bonus war to the ongoing ethnic cleansing taking place in Gaza and the West Bank, which is what the last page of posts has been covering almost exclusively. The Iran shit is done (for now) and we're back on the original topic. Keep up.
  2. What doesn’t make sense to me is when people, such as yourself, handwave away the murder of starving women and children as if their lives held no value.
  3. Go to bed. You’re fucking drunk.
  4. Could you diagram this sentence and then explain what the hell it’s supposed to mean? Also, please expand upon “I’ll kinda enjoy it no matter what it is.” What is it? What exact part of noncombatant civilians being murdered in cold blood do you "enjoy"?
  5. Gidget likes it up there, too. Here she is a few minutes ago, getting freaked out by Season 3 of Squid Games.
  6. As I was catching up, I was planning to mention that I thought Austin had switched from May to November municipal elections a few years ago, although I didn't realize there'd been opposition to it because it made complete sense to me at the time.
  7. From the best I can tell, this will be the conference realignment for FBS teams in 2026. Please let me know if there's anything incorrect.

  9. Mad Max shit, I guess, for the rest of us then.
  10. Icono's wet dream comes true: Monarchy at the top; then the Houses of Musk, Thiel, Zuckerberg, Bezos; followed by the warrior caste and some sort of merchant class; and of course serfs and/or slaves at the bottom.

  13. After seeing your reply to him, and against my better judgment, I thought about it and decided to view his response just in case his order to "die" was directed at me, and I see that it was. Interesting. I went ahead and took a screenshot of that command from Rex to "die" on the off-chance y'all find that I've suddenly stopped posting one day. As we've recently seen, bigots are really feeling their oats these days and are all in on the old ultraviolence. So, I've got a simple request for someone to download it on their hard drive for me. Please and thanks in advance. But, then again, we're also seeing that hateful racists, such as "War Crimes Rex," do have the backing of what passes for law enforcement. Eh, whatchagunnado.
  14. I don't think it's weird at all. The same loud voices that claimed that it was only ever about saving lives are the same ones who are now making pushes against contraception and maternity care. I don't have the energy to get into it with you right now, but you're more than welcome to peruse or join in on the abortion thread in the CR to read all the arguments. It's a really long thread, and I wish I could tell you where a good starting point might be. I dunno, sorry, maybe start 5-10 pages from the end. If you decide to chime in, I'll address you over there when I'm not so tired. I promise to be civil. https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/1761-official-thread-for-abortion-demagoguery/
  15. Yeah, of course, Ireland probably doesn't have a lot of trade with Israel. Other than what you've listed, maybe some tech stuff due to them being the old "Celtic Tiger." But, here's the deal, it's not just Ireland that's getting fed up. Anger with Israel's actions against the Palestinians is growing in the ranks of EU member states, with the Prime Minister of Spain calling for the end of the association agreement the EU has with Israel. It hasn't happened yet, but we can only guess at what the tipping point will be. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/06/27/eu-leaders-leave-israel-partnership-on-shelf-despite-pressure-to-act Look, I'm a supporter of Israel, believing that they have a right to exist and to defend themselves, but they don't have a right to continue to flout international law and commit war crimes. I'm also on record as saying that they're pushing their luck, as they're quickly losing any claim to the moral high ground and are losing support across the globe due to their conduct. We're seeing it here in the US among young people who will be tomorrow's leaders and decision-makers. In Europe, they're probably a generation ahead of us and are reaching a tipping point in opposition. I don't want them to lose our or Europe's support, but the path that Netanyahu is leading them down will eventually lead them to having very few friends in the West unless they give up their dreams of ethnically cleansing Gaza and the West Bank for some Greater Israel.
  16. @Rex Kramer I dunno what to tell you, dude. Over the last three years, I've tried multiple times in this thread and several others to discuss various topics with you. I've tried to remain civil over the last three years up until the last couple of weeks after finally getting completely fed up with your bloviating bullshit when you barge into a thread and just fuck it up by making shit up, issue personal insults, call people names, and accuse people of heinous shit, like being a pedo or an antisemite. I get the feeling by the way you behave on these boards that in real life, you're used to always getting your way by acting like a bully and shoving people around because of your position, status, or even physical size. But here, you just lose your shit when people push back when you're acting like an empty-suited, know-nothing blowhard. You're probably pretty smart, but it shows that you're a lazy and entitled bitch because you absolutely refuse to ever do the work to back up any of your shit. I'm sure at work, you're a real joy to be around, barking orders at some underling to make you a spreadsheet or something while threatening to fire them if they can't get it done in 15 minutes or blame them when you make a stupid fucking decision. And, true to form, you exposed your ass twice in a single afternoon, refusing both times to back up some stupid accusation that you've made, yet again. So fuck off and good riddance.
  17. Yes, I'm sure. If I'm wrong, I'll readily admit so. Since you question those statements, your job is to find a single post from any poster on this site, who has expressed either opinion that 1) denies or disputes "severe damage" to the site, or 2) is happy that Iran might still retain the capacity to make a nuclear weapon. That's how this works. You cannot just say shit without proof. I doubt you'll bother to even look, though. If you haven't provided evidence for your claim when I come back to this thread later this evening, I will immediately put you on ignore.
  18. I think that's the 10th to have died in their custody since this shitshow started.

  20. I'm not a lawyer, but the way I've read it is that to enter into any private residence or business, ICE is absolutely required to have a signed judicial warrant. But: Picking people up off the streets does not require one, because they can operate under an administrative warrant, which only requires "probable cause" (i.e., being brown in public).
  21. Yet again, either your reading comprehension fails you or your abhorrence of reading anything more than two sentences has. From the linked article, which I'll again link here: The scheme delivers on the commitment in the Programme for Government to progress legislation prohibiting import of goods from the settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory following the Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) of July 19, 2024. Ireland's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade says that the main purpose of the Bill is to prohibit the importation of goods into the State from Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem. Any such importation will thereby become an offence under the Customs Act 2015, and the prohibition created by the Bill will also then engage the customs powers under that Act, including those relating to search, seizure, and forfeiture. The scheme proposes to use the Israeli settlement postal code system currently employed by the EU in differentiating Israeli goods from settlement goods in order to identify goods of settlement origin for the purposes of the new Bill. The General Scheme - which can be read online here - will now be referred to the Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade for Pre-Legislative Scrutiny.
  22. Lol indeed. Instead, it should read territories illegally occupied by Israel.
