What disgusting people those ‘settelers’ are.
Obama said he thinks his own policies are in line with Reagan. Biden falls to the right of that on some issues, including to the right of Reagan on Israel.
Nope. Been writing my senators and reps for years to do more than nicely ask for peace and hit them in the funding if you really care. Before this time, the last one I sent out was in 2021 around the sheikh jarrah attacks. My senator tells me he strongly condems what happens, but his budget vote disagrees.
I stand by my opinion that making a dog become a cop is inhumane to the dog. The dog deserves better if you’re gonna make them have a job, like smelling old people for cancer, or helping people with vision impairments. You know, useful things.
Thats not even unrealistic to me when I remember the fact Gazas been bombed more in two weeks that Afghanistan ever got in a full years time. Afghanistan has a land area of a quarter of a million square miles and Gaza has an area of under 150 square miles.
Shit like this is no small part of why I’d sooner serve crack that serve in the military. And there’s not a single drop of sarcasm in that statement.
Tough cookies Jack, better vote for him again so he can invade Haiti in his second term.
I like how they say there’s no way to negotiate after several hostages have already been freed. Maybe Israel just sucks at everything but killing people who dont even have tanks.

I agree with a systematic approach to problem solving, especially when so many of the large problems are systematic in nature. I don’t personally believe too much can be done from the inside, but I’d love to be wrong and have progress come from wherever it may, and I know my way is not the only way. Not gonna spend my time trying to work from the inside though.
It reminds me a lot of the situations where Law Enforcement Officers won’t follow along for what they know is not right when everyone else is doing it, despite knowing that if they leave that’s one less person to stand up to the unethical, there is a point when you can no longer even associate with the group because of the very real blame you’ll start to share, and rightfully so. And in the case of LEOs if you’re not going along with the rest of the gang, you could very well be in danger.
I have little faith in the amount of movement you can actually cause from inside the system personally but Im not going to pretend my way is the only way, it’s good that people try. It sounds like this is someone on whom the ethics weighed heavily from the very beginning and their resignation when it became too much supports that. I could be very wrong on my analysis, but someone who’s got the moral fortitude to leave at all like this is probably among the better people in those positions for what that’s worth. I guess what I’m trying to express is that I feel like most people in positions like theirs are not as ethically inclined as they were, at least from the views I get on the outside.
They mean even less when it’s just a quote and nothing something that could alter the amount of money he’s gonna blindly send to them. It’s basically just PR since there’s no real enforcement attached to it.
“When I came to this bureau … I knew it was not without its moral complexity and moral compromises, and I made myself a promise that I would stay for as long as I felt … the harm I might do could be outweighed by the good I could do,” Paul wrote on LinkedIn. “In my 11 years I have made more moral compromises than I can recall, each heavily, but each with my promise to myself in mind, and intact. I am leaving today because I believe that in our current course with regards to the continued – indeed, expanded and expedited – provision of lethal arms to Israel – I have reached the end of that bargain.”
Gutty. Well thanks for trying to change things from the inside, it’s a shame things are set up the way they are. Not to mention having the strength to stick to your morals and leave when you realize there’s no more good you can do.
Maybe hes just using it to hide something.
How many other opinion pieces get downvoted like this? I don’t think it’s that it’s an opinion peice. I think it’s an opinion many don’t want to hear.
