Again, a bibliography could be provided if you're interested.

Dude, I've read that stuff. I'm not sold and will never be, but that has nothing to do with who or what is being said to be the evil-doer.

It runs completely counter to everything I know about the world (not much, but it's something, and it's all I've got anyway) for there to be just one. Ever. That's always myth, never truth, in my experience. I mean: At hidden levels. Obviously, if Israel (or the US, or the UK, or Jews, Christians, whomever) does something, they did it. But the stuff you can't see upfront is a multi-party affair, with trade-offs among powers.

Also....Honestly, I suspect such narratives on the grounds that they're a little too aggressive about telling me where to look. I like to keep my options open. And to direct my attention where I choose. You know what I mean, right? I mean, if I always looked for anti-Semites, that's obviously all I'd ever see, and anyone else who wanted to would be free to rob me blind and lead me off a cliff while I wasn't watching for it.

I'd be pro-Israel, for example. So I'm inclined to be wary about that stuff. That's just me.

Are you calling me sir? I feel quite faint. Also, I'm a lady, dammit!

Thanks for tolerating my blue sky pontificating. I haven't been as eloquent as I CAN be lately because I've been dealing with a river of shit and piss in my apartment (basement apartment) over the last couple days, so I've been preoccupied and pissed off and gagging as I wetvac out my hovel, etc.


You're welcome. Thank you.

Oh wow! You're a lady too?! With that manly tattoo avatar?!

That's the second time I've been gender blind-sided on RigInt in the last couple months! (Altho how I didn't clue in to Project Willow being a lady earlier on is beyond me).

I'll try not to let your gender color or temper my tone in our future arguments. I'm sure you'd rather I didn't let that happen. I'll keep treating you like one of the guys.

Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.
Don’t forget that.
