  1. Contradictions and Problems With Hamas-Supplied Numbers A. Repeatedly Inflated or Manipulated Figures • The Gaza Ministry of Health is run by Hamas, even though they try to brand it as...

  The core problem with your argument isn’t that you cite sources — it’s that you only cite ideologically aligned sources and refuse to engage with serious counter-evidence that undermines them. You...

  I don't assume Palestinians are any less honest than Israelis. Why should I? I think that for a long time Israel did try harder than most nations to minimize civilian deaths. But it clearly...

  Your entire argument rests on numbers provided by Hamas — a U.S.-designated terrorist organization that not only fabricates casualty figures for propaganda but systematically embeds itself among...

  Enforcing the Constitution means protecting both individual rights and national sovereignty. Illegal entry violates U.S. law — and no amount of statistical framing excuses avoidable crimes...

  I think we should enforce our laws and Constitution. It’s empirically proven that illegal immigrants commit crimes at a lower rate than American citizens. It’s simply a case of a more total...

  Your very first sentence is: 'The issue is proportionality of concern'. So, let's examine this principle with regard to Israel and Gaza. Hamas murdered 1200 Israelis. Israel, in...

  Let’s not insult anyone’s intelligence. The parade of excuses you listed — “I got the gang tattoo because it looked cool,” “I was affiliated in 8th grade but now I have a Ph.D.,” “It’s not illegal...

  “Do people give a shit?“ Did you “give a shit” when the crime wave set in? When these gangs normalized car theft? Car jacking? Theft generally? When it became normal to shoot up and sh*t on the...

  The issue is proportionality of concern. One mishandled deportation (which, by the way, is being addressed by the courts) triggers endless outrage, while the thousands of American citizens...

  First of all, supporting Hamas (however regrettable a choice that is) is protected by the Constitution -- remember, Nazis were given the green light to march in Skokie. Hamas murdered 1200 a year...

  That’s deep. However, what Heltz is saying makes sense, unlike lamenting by D. There was possibly one person who was improperly deported, and if I understand correctly that is already being handled...

  I'm glad I was able to make some sense, at least. The only thing I'd tweak is that one oughtn't to think of buddhist practitioners as possessing some sort of hermetic knowledge....

  "Whatever your thoughts are on that, the bottom line is that noncitizens are not afforded all rights and protections afforded to citizens." Except when it comes to abortion. Then all of a...

  I know helz is too spiteful to respond, but lurkers should be aware of his blatant hypocrisy. On one hand helz (taking his cue from his trumpian idols) advocates Ordo Amoris, yet it his party that...

  One lesson here, among many, is the importance of basic bargains. I beat the drum a lot, but, there’s many reasons I do. One of them is that when you compromise basic bargains, as lefties...

  I too understand the "human condition" as you have laid it out. That's hardly a subject of controversy. There are so many sayings against sacrificing the one on the...

  “Fine, I completely understand Ordo Amoris but, is that what the Constitution and our laws are based on? Seems dubious to me, except in family court proceedings and like situations.” As I said,...
