The former head of Saudi intelligence Prince Bandar pillories the Palestinian leadership, holding them responsible as “they always bet on the losing side & that comes at a price”
Prince Bandar is Saudi Arabia’s former ambassador to the US and served as director general of the Saudi Intelligence Agency from 2012 to 2014 and the head of the National Security Council from 2005 to 2015
“Who are the allies of the Palestinians now?.. Iran..using the Palestinian cause as a pretext at the expense of..Palestinian people?.. Iran..who want to liberate Jerusalem through Yemen, Lebanon, & Syria? The path to Jerusalem is known.. if they truly wish to take it”
Exactly 🙏🏽
OUCH 😖
On Qatar:
“..Al Manar and the other Iranian channels such as Al-Jazeera, which represents Qatar. Qatar, to be honest, is on the margins. The Qatari people are our dear and beloved brothers. The state, however, is not worth a mention or a reaction whatsoever...
...The best thing is to do is to ignore it. Surely, you all know that they say ticks can drive camels mad. That is true, but my brothers and sisters, ticks are ticks and camels will always be camels, and that sums it up from my point of view.”

Biden was weak on that Proud Boys vs Antifa exchange #Debate2020
Why?
Trump’s base doesn’t care he refused to condemn Proud Boys. But Biden’s base *see* violent Antifa Black Bloc rioting in the streets. Now we see Biden refuse to condemn by name, or even acknowledge they exist
So Biden inadvertently revealed Trump’s allegation is correct, Democrats are covering for Antifa (no one sane believes it’s “just an idea”). And Antifa does not sit comfortably with the base Biden’s *needs* to win over (even me)
Perhaps the real reason why “this won’t end well”
And despite everything we *see with our own eyes* in Portland etc, still you repeat this myth that Antifa “is just an idea”
Seriously, you think us stupid? 🤦🏽♂️
We know what we see: a loosely affiliated violent network of blackshirts
any privileged white lefty “liberal” trying to excuse hunter biden’s business behaviour in china (while they genocide Uyghur Muslims) by claiming “it’s the son not the father” (as if the son would be *anything* without his father’s work) is advised by me to go and f*^% themselves
and don’t you even dare “whatabout” me you ^#*}#^ spineless lefty hypocrites
NO THANKS @nusuk, I spent my life marching for an intransigent & corrupt Palestinian *dictatorship* that betrays Palestinians & gets rich from their poverty & suffering by stealing foreign aid.
The day you march for *PEACE WITH ISRAEL* is the day I join you
1) Israel was legally recognised by the International Community in 1948:
Immediately 5 Arab nations—Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon—invaded Israel & started the 1948 war.
Israel survived & strived against bullies
2) 1967, Nasser sent troops to Israel’s Sinai border & ejected UN peacekeepers after he blocked a crucial shipping lane “Straits of Tiran” to Israel, starting the 6 Day War.
Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq & Lebanon all attacked Israel

There has been a Supreme Court vacancy 29 times in US history during a presidential election year (or in a lame-duck session before the next president is inaugurated)
The president made a nomination in all 29 cases, even when not controlling the Senate
George Washington did it 3 times. John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower & Barack Obama all did it
22 of 44 Presidents faced this situation & all 22 nominated someone, regardless of having the votes in the Senate
19 times between 1796 & 1968, presidents sought to fill a Supreme Court vacancy in a presidential election year while their party controlled the Senate
