Counterrevolution is in Order.

Mainstream Repukes can stop Trump if they want to.

Think Big, his agenda could be stopped in it's Tracks by only a few Republican defectors.

It's a slim chance but better than nothing. Have the Republicans completely become Toads?

That the Question,..Skippy.

Most Revolutionary people are not poor wretches, he's like the Russian anarchists or the Socialists of the early 20th century.

Most people who actually Do It are acting on principle, not emotional trauma.

Chergrosz shot McKinley, it was a principle thing with him too.

True Political Violence is more frightening and of greater impact than mere revenge murder.

Just as effed up tho'

The British Empire was an archipelago of Colonies.

They did quality as superpower in The Day.

Today Britain is a Regional power of intermediate influence like say, Iran.

Also a Vassal of the US.

Impressive on the local scale but No superpower.

Without NATO, Turkey is more formidable than Britain.

Australia is also huge. Countries can be continental in size and not superpowers, Brazil also comes to mind.

My question was, name one superpower that isn't continental in size?

To my knowledge there isn't one. China is effectively continental in size because Asia is so huge.

So once again, I'll wait..

Resources, population, industrial capacity. Russia is holding off the entire West.

Could Israel?

Land area is why the US is a superpower at least in part.

Isolation from other great powers also helped.

Is Holland a superpower? It's twice the land area of Israel. Germany punched above it's weight, but Russia kicked it's ass, and would have without the West.

It just would have taken longer.

Can you name one superpower that's not continental in size?

I'll Wait.

Correction: 636,000 Sq miles. Kilometers it's 1.5 million.

Wars are not won by land area, but ability to persist is closely tied to it.

Israel is an artificial thing. Imposed and created by outsiders.

A Colony as it were. In a sea of otherness.

They will adapt and survive or be Destroyed.

Just my opinion, but an honest one.

Israel is Tiny. They have NO STRATEGIC DEPTH. Iran can take much more punishment than Israel ever could. Israel is the size of New Jersey. Iran is the size of four Texas's. 1,000,000 Sq. Miles, vs.8,000

Do the math.

The Big difference is that the US is in the "hearts and minds" phase of becoming truly inclusive, much like South Africa is.

Israel is worse than the "Jim Crow" South or even Apartheid South Africa.

They are like Nazi Germany at this point.

If it takes Nukes to stop them... So Be It.

Be careful what you wish for.

Israel may survive as Israel. But the "Jewish State" won't. In my opinion they will evolve into a multi ethnic society of equal rights for all, or be Destroyed in War brought on by their own excesses.

Israel is the Least sustainable society I can think of. Sustained by US aid and European guilt, built as a crucible of religious intolerance and ethnic Supremacy, they will destroy themselves.

Or be Destroyed by others Sick of the spectacle of violence and Arrogance.

Much like Nazi Germany was. Germany still exists as Germany,the Nazis are extinct.

The Jewish State as such will Die as well.

And as Rightfully so.

Surrounded by mortal enemies? Whose doing was that?

Israel created all of those enemies all by itself. The 800 lb. Gorilla is the US.

Support for Israel among the young is at it's Nadir. If the US turns on them, they're Gone. It's not as impossible as it seems.

Apartheid South Africa was backed by the US for decades until it wasn't.

Times change, Public Opinions and foreign policies evolve.

Israel is setting itself up to become another failed state.

The Arabs have Time on their side.

Israel? Not so much.

I doubt I will live to see it but I have no doubt that their endeavor will Fail.

Big Time.

Trump is a clown. He has no influence over Putin or the Russians.

He will escalate the war, not end it.

Israel and Ukraine will both be massively armed and funded.

Even more than Biden did.

War is coming. Not ceasefire. NATO will be involved.

Trump is incompetent. That's a known quantity.

He will somehow start and Lose a major war.

Winning!!!

Israel won't last long term. They have shown the world who they are too many times.

Apartheid South Africa lasted a long time...until it unravelled.

Nazi Germany seemed strong....until it wasn't anymore.

Israel will join them in oblivion.

Would that change anything?

Or just bring on more repression of innocent people to protect the terrified elites?

Rich people can buy policy and the problems don't affect them directly in most cases.

This CEO was just unlucky.

HE was the first victim and so not protected by his assets.

Only if enough of the truly exploitive rich get taken out by multiple assailants will anything change and probably not even then.

If he kills again? Will the people praising him today recant?

Askin' for a Friend.

But is it Real?

Make it Five. Get Em' out Quick. And No second terms ever, One and Done.

Keep the Court in Constant Churn. More frequent turn over than Two term Presidents.

Impose heavy ethical constraints to keep out the Bounders and Corrupt.

Dude,. You make me want to Puke.

You never saw Disproportionate force you didn't Love.

You must have like, a One inch ------.

Lol.

It's good for the Elites to Fear the Masses.

Far Better than Contempt.

Contempt gets policies that kill.

Fear makes for Concessions to keep Order.

Dude, you're paranoid.

Israel could have made everyone a citizen. They could have become a multi ethnic society,a model of equal rights under the law.

Jewish Supremacy was too much the point of the Zionist endeavor.

They came and stole everything they could. They killed anyone who resisted.

Usurpation is not Peace. Murder is not tranquility.

Israel got what they gave. No less.

Better Weapons and outside backing is the "secret" to their success at subduing the Palestinians.

It's why they can persist to this day. If their support is curtailed they won't be there much longer.

A Fake Country inhabited by fanatical zealots backed by Imperial countries in Decline.

I doubt Israel will exist in 100 years, maybe far less.

The Arabs will still be there....

Derek Chauvin got life for doing something similar. Justice was done.

Murdering inconvenient people is like Genociding inconvenient populations.

Censored is just fine with both.

Biggest POS on the Retort and that's saying something.

Lock him up. For years. He killed that guy in cold blood. Choking someone for several minutes after he stopped moving and was no longer a threat is murder,not manslaughter.

Penny is no hero. He's a sick human being. If he beats this he will hurt other people.

IMO.

Duh? This is just Too Obvious to anyone paying any attention at all.

If any other country did what Israel is doing they would be Bombed. Not Assisted and Armed.

Israel is more Illegitimate ever day. They kill civilians, noncombatants, medical personnel,they bomb Hospitals and murder journalists.

Their people post obscene videos of torturing and killing and request "likes" after they do so.

I hope they lose everything. Their Nation, their control of the situation, they have already lost their Honor and any moral high ground they may have had.

Self defense is not Carte Blanche to Murder Children and destroy the very culture and existence of people they Fear.

Israeli Exceptionalism is like US Exceptionalism.

The Refuge of Criminals and the Celebration of Cultural Imperialism and arbitrary Murder.

Does anyone think they really will?

Trump could pardon a serial killer and Congress wouldn't have the votes to impeach and remove him.

By pardoning Eddie Gallagher he pardoned a serial killer in his first term.

Congress didn't do diddly squat.

They won't when he pardons himself and all his accomplices, Either.

Open Corruption is the new normal on both sides of the aisle.

Bill Clinton started the whole thing. The Dems refused to hold him accountable.

Now it's the Norm in Government.

America only exceptional in it's inability to hold it's leaders accountable.

Even Israel locks up criminal leaders,...but not for Genocide. That's OK.

Stealing and Corrupt dealing against other Jews are still Crimes there though.

Crimes against the Chosen still count there as deserving of imprisonment.

I just love that idea. John Dean has the right spirit.

Pardon anyone even possibly on the target list. Preemptively.

That's something Trump himself would do.

Which makes it Appropriate.

Watch the Repukes Heads Explode on TV.

Must see TV.

Americans are spineless. We put up with almost anything if it's "officially" portrayed in the media.

Wars, Assassinations of leaders of countries we are not at war with.

Meddling in political outcomes of countries we have interests in.

Corporate malfeasance and open Corruption.

American people only seem to care about keeping everything "ordinary" and "normal" ,whatever that means.

The media usually defines those things, For Us.
