“Our allies the Gulf states”

Like - for example - Saudi Arabia, where women who want to drive face execution on “terrorism” charges, and dissident journalists are dismembered on political leaders’ orders inside their own embassies.

But Biden’s ‘far left’ policies are extreme.
There’s nothing MORE bipartisan than atrocious Middle East policy.

Anyone weighing in on Gaza or Palestine-Israel who can’t admit that fact has less than zero useful opinions.

Period.
Tying your outrage over Gaza and support of Israel or Palestine to Trump or Biden doesn’t make you an insightful commentator.

It makes you a ghoul.

Cynically capitalizing on decades of suffering in a protracted conflict, exacerbated by Republicans and Democrats alike... FOH.
Know why there’s so much ‘anti-American sentiment’ in the Arab world?

50+ years of knowledge that the only thing more American than apple pie is: scoring partisan political points with the blood of your children — only valuable as dead pawns.

That’s why.
This is painfully disingenuous — at best.

What, pray tell, did peace deals between Israel and countries like the UAE — with whom Israel was never at war — ever deliver for Palestinians?
Americans are taking the opportunity created by Palestinians dying to criticize Biden for...

... ‘squandering Trump’s peace deals’ between Israel and countries that:

1) aren’t Palestine and
2) weren’t at war with Israel in the first place.

Welp.

This has to go in to the article draft I’m revising about domestic extremism, white supremacy, and the military’s response due…

Today.

(Thanks, Ken!)
MEMRI?! The military is relying on MEMRI to root out domestic extremism in the ranks?

EID MUBARAK, Y’ALL.

(Even for the government, this is an insanely horrible idea.) Image
Oh look Twitter has a new revelation on white supremacy and the militar— Image

Why is “lone wolf” such an absurd designation for white supremacist attackers like Frazier Glenn Miller?

Glance at the first two pages of his manifesto — perhaps you can take a wild guess at one among many reasons.
“Lone wolf” isn’t just a vague misnomer with connotations of self-motivated, independently driven political violence that’s all-too-often applied.

It’s also a specific strategy white supremacist leadership explicitly champion as…

A. Specific. Strategy. For. A. Movement.
The entire POINT of the “lone wolf” strategy is to perpetuate the illusion of isolated actors outside a movement.

Hence the… MOVEMENT that pioneered and advocates it.

Columbus Day (English to Indigenous translation):

“I proudly celebrate Hitler’s birthday! Who can say the same?”
Mad NYC changed the name of Columbus Day? You’re not alone.

Open white supremacists are with you!
Columbus: “They never refuse anything that is asked for. They show so much love they would give their very hearts.”

In return, 9 year old girls were sold into sex slavery.
Captive women’s infants were fed to dogs.

4 years after he arrived, 1/3 of the Taíno people were dead.

Bottom line:

If you think military personnel and law enforcement who express white supremacist sentiment shouldn’t be fired because “free speech” and “Muh First Amendment,” respectfully —

— shut the fuck up about Critical Race Theory for all eternity.
Let me explain something for the “Critical Race Theory is bad and should be banned because it talks about systemic racism and we’re postracial” [etc] crowd.

Have you ever heard of the Truth and Reconciliation commission?

Here’s something to consider:
Racism didn’t magically end after the Civil War. That’s why a thing called Reconstruction happened.

Racism didn’t magically end then. That’s why a thing called the Civil Rights Struggle happened.

Racism didn’t magically end then. That’s why a thing called BLM happened.

Okay, kids - I need an entertainment break, so gather round for the latest installment of:

NEO-NAZI NONSENSE STORY TIME!

“Bitchy Old White Men Catfight Edition: Tom Mezger vs. David Duke, Part II”
Refresher:

Metzger and Duke were super tight back in the contemporary white supremacist movement’s Swastika Stone Age. Duke recruited Metzger for the KKK in 1975; Metzger ran Duke’s political campaign.

Bromance, y’all.

UNTIL THE SPEEDO INCIDENT.

It wasn’t just The Great On-Stage Speedo Incident’s proverbial straw that broke Metzger’s Nazi camel back.

It was also Duke’s Keeping up with the KKKardashians level love of plastic surgery!

Here’s a cartoon from Metzger’s W.A.R. paper that I just rediscovered in my records:
