So that $6 billion that Joe has parked in Qatar where the leader of Hamas, Khaled Mashal very comfortably resides, at 5% interest earns $300 million per year. While the $6 B may be in limbo, the interest being earned certainly isn't. How long has was the $6 B in S Korea before being relocated ? What became of the interest earned on that while it was there ? 3 years ? That would make that 6 grow to 7 yet no one mentions that.
With Qatar obviously being friendly to Hamas it is no stretch to see that interest money being siphoned off for illicit use, like by Hamas. Qatar and everyone else can keep that money held on the side and keep their word, yet the interest being earned isn't even mentioned anywhere and that can be given to Iran or anyone else, without breaking the "trust".
Biden, once again is playing us on his relationship with Iran as well as the other countries he has been associated with as being soft on by people paying attention.
Hey ! While your here maybe you can answer this question. How come only men, women and children are being killed in Gaza ?
I’ll trade you for the link about how Biden said that stuff while speaking there. Or did it not happen and it was a straw man?
Well it did not happen this time like it did twice before, at least. I did give you one example already.
This time the shit he said was even worse.
Something about giving Hamas $100 million and making sure that it would only be used for humanitarian purposes and then the one where he told the Israelis that they should not feel enraged about the massacre.
I'll get around to getting the links for those incase you think I made them up.
So my question is really a medical question. Right up your alley. How come only men and women ? What about all of the rest of the genders ? Why are they not dying ?
But don't worry...the government is going to shut down while Republicans focus on the important things... like reading between the lines of Hunter's emails.
Absolutely, nothing more important to the nation than Hunter's doings. I for one can't sleep at night
Kurt...in case you missed it... the first hearings happened yesterday... It's hard to find anything on Right-wing media, so here's a quick summary:
The Republican-selected witnesses all stated, "I haven't seen any evidence that would support impeachment".

My sister was an accountant on movie sets, and she only once worked non-union and said they provided one porta potty for the entire crew. Never again. Union rules seem (and frequently are) petty, but they also protect employment and wages against a behemoth business thatâs only concerned with profit (because thatâs capitalism: what strategy results in the most profit?)
I had an astute adjunct who worked as an auto exec for decades comment, you get the unions you deserve.
I have found most private unions can be effective counterparties to an employer. On the other hand, public unions often are dysfunctional.
I was a union guy too. Painters for 20 years.
All they cared about is if we were wearing whites.
I do get my pension now. It almost pays for the groceries.
I didn't care for the union much.

I do not believe that President Biden should be walking the picket line with UAW members.
Yeah, that bothered me. I should think that he is above that stuff, like how the Queen stayed out of things.
OTOH, Trump was clearly âscrew the workersâ so I can see how being on their side - for the sake of votes - is a slam dunk.
Congratulations, you have just outed yourself as a racist for even thinking of replacing Harris with Newsome, in the eyes of the party you have laid down with...
The only name that could possibly get a Dem nomination at this point is Gavin Newsom. He says he's not running but keeps doing things to keep him in the news. He has become an incredibly good politician and would run circles around anyone running on either side right now.
The first state filing deadline for the primary ballot is mid-October I think. From there...it gets harder and harder to get votes.
If I were Joe, I'd find a way to dump Kamala and pull him onto the ticket. He could help eliminate the "old man Joe" noise.
Congratulations, you have just outed yourself as a racist for even thinking of replacing Harris with Newsome, in the eyes of the party you have laid down with. The party that puts everything into what you are (identity politics), dismissing who you are. Merit no longer matters. You want to take a black woman, the current VP off the ticket and replace her with a white man ? You just can't do that.*
*(Edit: We have reached the point where the water in the pot is boiling and the frog can no longer get out in order to save itself. Thank you, Hillary. She did warn us, if anyone remembers ... )
And besides, you want to turn this country into San Francisco ? Remember that before Newsome was governor of California, he was Mayor of SF and is responsible for what that once beautiful city has become and is turning the whole state into.
Oh and in case most of you missed it, Newsome has agreed to a debate with DeSantis that will be hosted by Hannity at or around Nov 30, IIRC. You'll have to watch Fox to see it, live anyway.
