Link? I don't get that substack.. FYI that is just one man's opinion. Are you that easily swayed or do you have the same problem as MAGAts, confirmation bias?
I just read Mr. Kucinichs' substack. I do not agree. Dennis is a well meaning progressive, but like most of his ilk, he is blithely unaware of the full and true history of the middle east, and like all of his ilk, totally ignorant of Islam, and never even read the Quran, much less the haddiths. I have, in depth and Ill add ibn Ishaq's biography of Mohammed, which is part of the haddiths that Mullahs and Mufti's use for issuing fatwas and adjudicating.
Nor has he read the HAMAS covenant which is document of genocide, because a free Palestine from the river to the sea is only possible with a genocide of Jews, and they are not going to let that happen again.
Preamable to the Covenant: Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it" (The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Following is from article seven, word for word from the haddith of al Bukhari, sahih 1295 and 1296, book 56, haddith 139
"The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree, (evidently a certain kind of tree) would not do that because it is one of the trees of the Jews." (related by al-Bukhari and Moslem)."
So what does Dennis and you as well as other ignorant hard core leftists, expect Israel to do, commit suicide?
The problem is that HAMAS propaganda is like Mark Twains complaint, that a lie goes twice around the world, before the truth gets it's boots on.
Poor Dennis, I no longer look up to him, as he has swalled Muslim bullshit, hook line and sinker.
And to think, I have been accused of being a leftist antisemite.
A pox on both houses. And I do fault the Orthodox right wing Jewish settlers with creating this problem, and that includes as leader, Bibi.
The problem started because Zionists,under Theodore Herzl, BOUGHT land from the Arabs, and turned a waste land into a paradise of sort, built cities, and when Arabs saw what the Jews had done, they were angry and upset, because trapped in their 7th century religion and mindset, they accomplished nothing in thousands of years, They then attacked the fledgling nation and tried to erase it and the Jews, but were beaten back and to secure their own safety, Israel expelled the Palestinians whose existence threatened their existence. Not having learned their lesson, the stupid Muslims, fired with Jihad, anger and their religion to justify it all, came back time and again trying to commit genocide in the Mideast, and each time they lost and in losing Israel claimed more land to create a buffer. Oct 7th is just another incident in a long line of Islamic hostitlity towards Jews, and sadly this hostility has fed into our Universities, by ideological blind professors, who believe anything the "poor suffering" Muslims have to say.
Osama, DAESH, Boko Haram, Iran, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah are all on an anti Western crusade, and all of it justified by their "sacred scriptures and text"
So Mr Farrar. Who are YOU that you know SO much and continually think you are right?
I am not a person to be 'talked down to.'
You are spouting things I know but adding your interpretation just the same as me.
I actually think you are a racist.
It's fascinating to me that having been warned by Egypt and Jordan the Israeli's were caught napping. Israeli's have used Hamas twice before. Give me a break.
He talks down to everyone because he seems to be a representative working either for Thom Hartmann, Raytheon, or the Biden administration. He uses personal insults and slurs and does appear to have an American Exceptionalist perspective (to put it gently). It's disturbing the lengths he will go to in order to excuse and/or diminish American military adventurism and violation of international law.
With the utmost and all respect due, Ms. Stokes, I humbly suggest that you be mindful of the ancient Alkebulanian proverb that "one must not get into pissing contests with skunks."
Including your self, with all of your self aggrandizing pontifacation.
Read your own posts, you present yourself as, Barry and Rohn do, an all important decider of right and wrong. You aren't even the mistress of your own ideas, everything you believe comes from someone else, because they have pushed the right button.
I know other people like that, on the opposite side, they are called MAGAts.
Know what is pathetic, misery loves company, at least three people who live in misery, have found birds of a feather, with whom to commiserate.,like a pack of cowardly predators, too weak to take down the buffalo, they form packs to nip at the heels.
I don't know what hair you got up your ass, but you are venting your spleen on all kind of irrelevancies.
I am a progressive not a stupid brainwished ill informed, peer approval seeking Marxist or leftist, and I don't think America is the center of the universe, nor do I even have a delusion that I am. I eat,piss, crap and bleed just like anyone and I am staring down at the limits of my own mortality. I am fully aware of the wrongs that this, and all countries, under all kinds of leadership have perpetuated.
Your sense of morality is stilted, by your lack of knowledge about the real world in which we live, somewhere you have picked up an ideology that actually leads to tyranny. There is, in case you didn't catch it a tyranny of the left and a tyranny of the right.
I do have a well developed sense of morality, of right and wrong, and I know what HAMAS has done is wrong, dead wrong, inhuman and blood curling, killing babies, toddlers, infants, children, women and the disabled and elderly in cold blood, burning them alive and slitting their throats, and I know that Israel is in an existential fight for it's life. the HAMAS covenant lays it out, as does Islamic Scriptures, and the great moral you wears blinders to threats of genocide and siding with and sympathizing with the people who have declared a holy war of extermination against Jews.
And here I was called an antisemite because I had the audacious temerity to call out right wing Israeli settlers for killing and dispossessing Arabs.
Your self congratulatory moralizing is a joke, you are just like the MAGAts, full of your own stuff and oblvious to the landscape around you, and I doubt that you read the entire contents of this response.
There you go again Boris, poor suffering martyr. What is really distrubing is a Putinist trying to distract people from the crimes of a cold blooded, militarist hegemone, by pretending to be a socialist.
Boris you are as transparent as my front window. and an effing coward to boot. Poor you looking so vainly for redemption and fellow travelers, Too bad that you glommed onto Thom's side, as a tool to propgandize for Putin. It didn't work.
Yep, I am fat, dumb and rich because Thom, Raytheon, the MIC, and Biden are paying me nice fat salaries.. LMAO. Putin should fire you for the fool you are.
I will tell you who I am, I am 84 years old, have a Masters degree, have a well developed critical reasoning skill, and I question everything, in this case both Israeli and Arab, propaganda, and I have one hell of a memory, and have done a hell of a lot of reading, study and enquiry.
Call me a racist, the ad hominem of last resort.
I am an atheist, and for good reason, I have studied the history, as well as the beliefs, of the Abrhamic religions, and declare a pox on all of their houses.
Now if you insist on tagging me a racist, because of my critique and rejection of Islam, bear in mind that neither Islam or Arab is a race, and you calling me such just shows your own ignorance.
For instance Islam is a religion, not a race.
Arab is an ethnic identity based on one's native tongue, There are Christian Arabs as well as Jewish Arabs (the Druze), and Arab is not a race it is transnational. White skinned blue eyed, blonde haired Arabs (descended from Circassians and Caucasoids), there are black Arabs, brown Arabs, Arabs of all shapes and colors.
And Judaism is an identity based on tradition, not even a language like Arab.
Know what you are talking about, before you start hurling epithets.
You enjoy someone calling me a racist don't you. Any one who isn't your narcissitic, self aggrandizing, angry and racist (yes racist) pocket it a racist, aren't they.The ;problem is that you are hate filled Rohn, and have a deep dwelling sense of inferiority, with which you compensate by perpetual anger, and bloviating about your personal greatness,and that humongous chip you have on your shoulder.
And since you didn't read my response. Muslim, Jew Arab are not races.
They are identities based on religion or a common language,not on race.
And IMO you are a racist, so eat up with anger, that you categorize anyone who does not fellate you as an enemy. You are a real piece of work, and your own worst enemy.
I did, and responded. Kucinich is unaware but he is siding with those who would annihilate the Jews, a second holocaust. That is what is meant by Free Palestine from the River to the Sea, it is only possible with the murder or flight of 12 million Jews.
And as I posted the HAMAS charter and indeed the sacred books of Islam, call for the extermination of all Jews. Hitler has nothing on the Muslims, the only difference is that Hitler managed to capture the might of a nation, and a highly developed, industrial nation at that.
There is no parallel in Muslim countries. Less you knee jerk, bear in mind that Islam is not a race, it is a mult racial, multi national, multi ethnic religions. and hostile to anyone who cherishes freedom, especially the freedom to travel(if a woman, without a male escort), freedom to love whom you love, freedom to worship or not worship as you please, freedom from oppression (male and female, especially female).
To a degree I can understand Islamic women, after all they were born into the religion and have been brainwashed all of their life, but I can't understand leftist females, who absolutely ignore the blatant misogyny of Islam,forcing them to have male escorts where ever they go, making them wear hijabs and bee keeping suits, not being able to file rape charges. If they are raped their testimony alone is not sufficient, they need four male witnesses, who would actually be accomplices to the rape as they sat there and didn't nothing, and the poor victim is subject to being stoned (if in Iran), or burned and hung if in Pakistan, Afghanistan or almost any other Muslim country
Read and absorb Dennis Kucinin's interview with Robert Scheer.
Today on substack!

"Just another incident."
Wow.

It's disturbing the lengths he will go to in order to excuse and/or diminish American military adventurism and violation of international law.
Yes. Academics often pontificate endlessly!
Have quite a few in my family!

One thing about Amerikans William is that you think you are the Universe..wrong.
NO point in writing Amerikan names like Barry and Rohn....who the hell are they?
I have a mind which can make moral decisions..obviously you don't.
OK so we are 'cowardly predators!'
Who are you: God almighty?
I don't know what hair you got up your ass, but you are venting your spleen on all kind of irrelevancies.
