Isn’t Hamas always crying that Israel is starving them and babies are dying of malnutrition? Now you know where all that food is going and it ain’t the children. Roll Eyes

It'd be interesting to know what the Israeli plan is for those prisoners.

I too was moved by Dr. Phil’s unflinching criticism of those University presidents. Well said, sir.

This is (was) the nutjob running MIT. Never trust anyone who wears blue glasses. Blue glasses (and crazy eyebrows) are sure signs of unstable and/or leftist women. Don't believe me? Try it out.

https://www.universityworldnew...%20US%2447%20billion.

quote:
During the meeting of the United States House of Representatives Education Committee’s grilling of the presidents of the University of Pennsylvania, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, Representative Elise Stefanik asked Harvard’s president, Claudine Gay, if she was aware that Harvard’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies (CMES) department had received US$1.5 billion from foreign entities and governments over the past three years.


quote:
But the Harvard CMES figure is just the tip of the iceberg for American universities, according to Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), an NGO based at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey (that identifies and forecasts threats in the age of information disorder). American universities and colleges have received US$19 billion from foreign sources that have no recorded nor reported dates of receipts, per the Department of Education (DOE) report dated 6 April 2023 on total donations to that date of US$47 billion.


quote:
Between 2014 and 2019, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates donated at least US$4.4 billion to numerous US colleges. Together with donations from other Middle East nations, over the five years in question, more than US$5 billion was donated to American universities from authoritarian Middle Eastern nations.


quote:
“Over the past three years, the rate of contributions has increased by nearly 55% since 2020. It’s not just that we have a problem, it’s becoming a force multiplier,” said NCRI analyst No 1.

“Our previous work on funding from [Middle Eastern] authoritarian regimes, much of it undocumented, and how it predicts the erosion of democratic norms and antisemitism on campus, gives us reason to suspect downstream influences from these investments,” the analyst added.

Ever notice that all of those in control, at least what I saw at the hearings, are seemingly D-I-V-E-R-S-I-T-Y picks?

No wonder none of them would give a straight answer condemning the anti-Semitism. Eek

Here's something which needs to be seen from, of all people, Dr. Phil. I encourage you to watch this. You can call him a grand-stander, and a grand-stander he may be, but listen to the substance of his indictment of these repulsive university officials. He calls out these evil people for all they are. They have abandoned those they are tasked with leading, at the very moment those students need support and strong leadership the most.

Holy Hell! I agree with Dr. Phil!!

“Freedom of speech” is a liberty that everyone should enjoy because it permits and encourages the exchange of ideas that is vital for the health of any open and free society.

That said, it’s always been recognized that like other freedoms there are legitimate limits that may be placed on it. The classic example is we can’t yell, “Fire!” in a crowded theater (unless, of course, there really is a fire). Your right to freely swing your arm stops at the end of my nose.

And there is nothing about our freedom to say whatever we want within those limits that requires the rest of us to accept or even listen to what someone has to say. That in turn means that depending upon our relationships, the people who disagree with us also have the right to object and even take action in response to what we say. Society as a whole has a right to limit our making unwarranted threats of violence because such speech is harmful to society as a whole. Words matter, but not as much as what they signify. If I make an unwarranted threat of violence against someone, that signifies something that matters a lot.

Every employee or other person enjoying a formal association with an organization owes certain things to that organization and voluntarily accepts what’s owed in exchange for pay or whatever else they get in return. Am I free to picket a supermarket and chant, “Cantaloupes will kill you?” Sure. If I work for a cantaloupe farmer, is he free to fire me for saying that? Obviously.

Long ago when the threat to the Nation that support for Communist ideology represented was more commonly recognized than today, I could ask this question when conducting background investigations: “Has he ever said or done anything that advocates the overthrow of the US government by force or violence?” People had the right to advocate something like that while standing on a street corner or publishing a newspaper. The US government in turn also had the right to deny the people who advocated such a thing a clearance to see information classified as pertaining to national defense.

While acting as a representative of a university or other businesses should someone be able to indicate that there’s nothing wrong with advocating the killing of all members of a particular group? Can not a top company representative’s statements legitimately be understood to accurately reflect the beliefs and attitudes of not only themselves, but also of the businesses they are paid so well to represent?

Advocating the unjustified killing of anyone, much less an entire group based on religion, race, or ethnicity, is immoral and cannot be excused on any grounds. Every person who claims to have any moral sense should therefore object to such advocacy. If that advocacy is true of the culture and policies of the organization as expressed by a high level representative, the rest of us are justified in objecting by all legal and moral means, including demanding that the organization change its culture and deal appropriately with those who supported that view.

As of 09 DEC 2023, the Government of Yemen declares blockade on all shipping, irrespective of flag state, going to or from Israel, via the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Red Sea.



I don't think this will end the way the Yemenese are expecting.

Did the Saudis lift their air, sea, and land blockade of Yemen, yet? If not, how will Yemen enforce a blockade while being blockaded themselves?

Yeah, but this is ALL Iran. Lebanon, Yemen, Gaza Syria. Biden gave them lots of play money, by releasing frozen assets. They know he is balless to do anything against them.

Something about glass houses and stones comes to mind.
I was always a little amazed when someone with an outstanding warrant for failure to appear in court (and they were therefore fully aware of it) was caught speeding. When one has skeletons in one’s closet, it’s best to not draw attention to oneself and invite the curious in to wander around one’s home.

Much of what is transpiring with these people demonstrates that despite their levels of education and having been hired for such prestigious positions, they truly are profoundly stupid.

Hamas is now threatening to kill every hostage if their demands aren't met. You cannot negotiate with terrorists. If they give in to them, this pattern of savagery will never end. I weep for the hostages but we need to seek out and exterminate every one of these vile criminals. You need to be unrelenting against this ideology. We cannot give in to them, we can never stop trying to kill every one of them. They are roaches. I have stood with Israel for decades and stand with them still. Maybe what we need to do is arm every Israeli citizen.

They're not just savages; they're stupid savages. Killing all hostages would be a monumentally stupid move.

This smacks of deep desperation. The stories of how Hamas is losing badly seem to be true.
