According to prisoners' rights groups, approximately 9,300 Palestinians are currently held and tortured in Israeli prisons, with nearly half detained without charge or trial. This was the reason for the 7 Oct 2023 surprise raid into Israel: seize Israelis for a prisoner swap. Two such prisoner exchanges were conducted in Nov 2023.

The American taxpayer-funded death toll in the West Bank is now 1,001 since 7 Oct 2023; in the charnel house known as Gaza, the number is now 73,097; 20,179 children; 12,500 women; 173,417 human beings wounded or maimed.

The diabolical Trumpf junta has not yet advocated adding "Gaza Obsession Syndrome" or "West Bank Derangement Syndrome" as an official illness into the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders like their current attempt with "Trumpf Derangement Syndrome" (TDS).

Since 1948 under both Democratic and Republican Party administrations, the peace-loving, hardworking American taxpayer has sent the Labor and Likud governments of Israel, a prosperous and nuclear-armed country, over $317.9bn, the most US economic aid given to any nation in the world.

In 2025 alone, the US sent Israel $12 billion which could have instead paid for 1,982,488 American families with one year's free groceries. That would have been a pragmatic use of American taxpayer dollars.

US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026 and AIPAC-funded politicians from both parties deserve our scorn.

In Dec 2025, the sinister and inept Trumpf junta appointed this teleporting "Dr Who" -- Gregg Phillips -- to lead FEMA's Office of Response and Recovery.

"Yes. Who among us was not watching the Norwegians do their row thing? The row in unison. Tens of thousands of them celebrating their sports team, playing at the World Cup, organized, clean-cut, fun, disciplined-thinking, why can't we have those immigrants? That " they can come.

"The people we're getting, just as Trumpf bleated when he took the golden escalator downstairs, they're not sending their best. We're getting child molesters. We're getting rapists. We're getting murderers. We're getting ne'er-do-wells who like to sit on their couch and live off the public dime.

"And it doesn't really matter to us whether they're claiming asylum, they want temporary protected status, they've crossed the border illegally and they've just decided to stay, or they had a visa that expired and they decided to overstay. They need to go home. They need to go home."

Following the logic I have recently read, the diabolical Trumpf junta should next classify "Gaza Derangement Syndrome" (GDS) as an official illness to be added to the APA's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.

Legalized lynching.

And the satanic Trumpf junta issued Executive Orders to expedite the judicial review process from sentencing date to the gallows.

Coriolanus, the poor well-fed housecat struggling with clumsy paws and sharp nails on a severely outdated XP computer, cares about all lives: Jewish, Irish, Arab, New Yorker, Muslim, People of Color, Vietnamese Buddhist, Puerto Rican, Iranian, Cuban, Venezuelan, Palestinian, or Russian/Ukrainian conscripts and civilians.

Has any Coriolanus post on drudge.com-- or other internet platforms-- EVER deviated from that principle?

Felon Musk and future DOGE cuts at USAID were not on the table on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024.

This is reverse engineering.

On the table on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024 were 43,391 dead human beings in Gaza killed wholesale by the homicidal Israeli Death Forces (IDF) with the prospect of more Muslims being slaughtered by the American-taxpayer funded Serial Killers of the Middle East, the IDF.

And we were right. The number in that abbatoir is now 73,072 human beings.

21 Oct 2024: "Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign has rejected the claim that she believes the IDF is committing genocide in Gaza.

"That is not the view of the Biden administration or the Vice President," a Harris campaign official told The Jerusalem Post.

This follows an exchange between Harris, who is the Democratic presidential nominee, and a pro-Palestinian heckler wearing a keffiyeh at a weekend event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a key swing state in the 2024 race for the White House."

ICE is using high-tech Israeli spyware to warrantlessly snoop on American citizens and permanent resident aliens (PRA), giving them more power than the FBI whose agents must obtain legal warrants to investigate suspects.

This is why AIPAC and status quo dinosaur politicians do not want to abolish DHS or ICE, but "reform" or "fix" them.

You can easily confirm my statement by cross-checking AIPAC membership with the politician's stance on DHS and ICE, like US Senator Chuck Schumer (D-Israel) or US Senator John Fetterman (D-Israel).

These intolerable and vicious dinosaurs want DHS and ICE to have the ability to snoop, deter, and immediately deport undesirables, people of color (like Haitians), pro-Palestinian college students, or enemies of the state.

We are all Palestinians now.

Since Palestinian Gazans are only Muslim Arabs being genocided -- all with US taxpayer dollars and weapons -- "pragmatic" white Judeo-Christian voters in the US don't care-- as the comments in this thread exposed.

"Argh! I don't give a --- about Palestinians getting killed! Screw them, they're just Arabs anyway! Gargh! My white Judeo-Christian life in America is more important than their Muslim lives! Nothing we can do anyway! Who cares about 75,000 dead Muslims? Blargh!

I'm pragmatic, Coriolanus! Gargh! I'll vote and reward the same status quo political dinosaurs who brought us to this disaster! Argh! Let Israelis kill Arabs and enjoy world class universal healthcare with our money while we have the BBB! Argh!

Stupid social media exposing white police violence against people of color-- argh! I mean-- exposing Israeli Death Forces (IDF) violence against Palestinians! Plargh!

Throw away your principles, Coriolanus! Stop fighting for the underdog and live with blood on your hands, like me -- you stupid Gaza-obsessed voter! Now get out and there and vote for an AIPAC Democrat! Plargh!"

Amazon sells Dummkopf Trumpf voodoo dolls:

That's exactly right. Congressmen and Senators enjoy a platinum healthcare plan and their attending physician is a USN admiral. Mitch McConnell's obituary won't read very well.

Good luck to the challenger and screw the GOP.

Most welcome, Doc Sarvis.

The 1970s saw some pretty good made-for-TV movies, like that one and The Execution of Private Eddie Slovik amongst others.

I may write a non-political historic OP about the US Army, but the last non-political OP I wrote was not-- sniff-sniff-- well received.

"I work my fingers to the bone for you people and this is the thanks I get!"

Hi Zed:

Thanks for the clarification. I had read many years ago the Gatling gun was retired after the last battle against the indigenous warriors circa 1892-- either Wounded Knee or something with the Ghost Dancers warriors-- meaning their mass killing function came to an end.

When I went to Wikipedia I was surprised to read that the Gatling gun was used during labor unrest in 1921 West Virginia.

Last week I learned that Mount Rushmore is a testament to America's ethnic cleansers, when for years I thought it was a monument to four of our great POTUS.

Thanks again, Zed.

This senior DIA intelligence officer was "DOGEd."

When you look at Dr Gustav Otto's experience and education, what were Felon Musk's goons looking to do by firing him and other qualified leaders across the USG?

Weakening and destruction of America is all I can gather.

These are the same Sheeple that are anti-vax and pro-gun.

Republican voters are a death cult that wants Amerikka to be as dystopian as possible and the oligarchs are laughing their way to the Swiss banks.

You said it.

Graham Platner (D-ME) has a slight lead over Susan Collins (R-ME) in their US Senate race.

Ken 'Pedophile-Protector' Paxton (R-TX) has a slight lead over James Talarico (D-TX).

AIPAC, the GOP, and the status quo oligarchs are flooding Maine and Texas with ad money to defeat these two insurgencies.

*** Hakeem Jeffries Unsettled About Progressive Democrats Winning ***

The cadre of Democratic congressional candidates that won their primaries on Tuesday are against AIPAC and funding Israel's genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. "The Squad 2.0" also rightfully calls for abolishing ICE and DHS.

These two positions unsettle Hakeem Jeffries. He was not primaried this year, but probably will be challenged by a Zohran Mamdani-backed candidate in 2028.

Morning Doc Sarvis.

Thanks for posting.

Less than 1,000 US Army soldiers were killed during the 19th-century pacification process of the native Americans, including the casualties of Battle of Little Bighorn. And after the last military engagement against the indigenous people in the early 1890s, the Gatling gun was formally retired.
