If the democrats’ assertion that DEI isn’t illegal (“you can’t be racist toward or discriminate against white/asian people” they say) were true, they wouldn’t be saying “when the conservatives say this they mean the N word.”
Pray For Israel 🇮🇱 🙏

What is Israel's end game here? How do they intend to get to where they want to be? I haven't heard of any plan from Bibi about a post-Hamas government. I think he likes the chaos because it gives him purpose and keeps him in power.
Now, they are starting to kill more Hezbollah dudes. How far does the bombing go there? It just seems like they don't have a plan here.

I assume Israel just wants Iran to stop using its proxies to bomb them.
I also assume Bibi doesn’t mind the conflict. Provides an ongoing threat and solidifies his power base. After the Oct attack Hamas had to be eliminated if you’re head of Israel. I also assume of non-terrorist based governance likely installed by Israel would be the goal.

Temporarily keeps the courts and the people off his back. He will likely not get Hamas or a some new organization to be stopped. The last time they tried to get the PLO shut down, they got Hamas. Different time, same story. He knows that, but is moving forward with self protecting actions. That gets him next to zero, with replacing Hamas with a non-terrorist organization, but that is probably not his real goal.
This is a conflict between Iran and Israel, plain and simple.
If not for Iran there would be a broader settlement between Israel and the Arabs.
If not for Iran, there would be no Hezbollah. Assad would have fallen in Syria.
Iran is the worst. Israel demeans the Palestinians who are largely stateless people and creates facts on the ground to lay claim to others' land.
But Iran gives them excuses for doing those things. Iran is the worst actor in the region.
I say this as someone who has family just a couple of miles from where Israel dropped their bunker busters to kill Nasrallah last week.

How long does someone get in federal prison for leaking top secret military plans for an upcoming attack to a terrorist regime? Hope it was worth it.
Well Israel/Netanyahoo didn't really give us much of a chance. with his decisions that seem to be as much about personal career protection as they are about things in the interest of Israel as a whole.
Our providing him with tons of ammo and military support(missile launchers, etc) for protection of Israel, didn't seem to get him to listen to our advice, as he ignored most of it. I wonder if it was leaked with high level clearance or if it was even from our country, instead of from a possibly cooperating ally.
Protecting the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism would be a very bad look if it were the U.S. who in fact leaked the plans .

I'm sure we'd be interested to hear her father's thoughts on the issue, so as to the fact that he teaches Philosophy at the University of Tehran.
No offense, Israel has not been a very good ally as of late. I honestly could care less about this entire situation. Both sides can take a flying leap for all I care.
And as far as American hostages go, my advice is: don't go party in a warzone without thinking you might be taking your life into your own hands. I don't suggest we hold any raves in Kharkiv either.
Sounds like your attitude is prevalent in our intelligence agencies. The obvious problem is if we’re giving Iranian Americans who have been accused of spying for Iran access to top secret attack plans against Iran then what other idiotic decisions are being made by our intelligence agencies. How many Americans are dying as a result. It’s one of the biggest clown shows I’ve ever seen.
You can blame those hostages if you wish. That doesn’t absolve our obligation not to further place them in harms way. We’ve seen how bad the Secret Service has become. The incompetence appears to be widespread. Whoever wins this election in two weeks, my hope is they conduct a house cleaning of these agencies.
One traitor does not mean the entire agency necessarily needs a house cleaning. Certainly a review.
Trump loves a constituency like you as a president, that uses those desires to change out as much of Washington as he can. There are some hardcore reviews that need to be done, but no wholesale changes that need to be enacted. Pick out the bad apples, and things will run smoothly in all of the agencies and bureaus.
The problem isn’t a traitor. The problem is an agency who allows someone suspected of spying for Iran to receive top secret battle plans involving that very country. This isn’t one or two people. It’s multiple people within the agency who believed she should still have access to top secret information such as this. As I said above, I would hope whoever is elected will look at the intelligence agencies from top to bottom and reevaluate decision making and policies. The same thing which was recommended for the Secret Service. Both have zero to do with Trump.
When I said bad apples, I wasn't referring to just spies. I was referring to wide swaths of upper management.
