Why do you think this is a gotcha?

Hmm, I wonder why? I do like handouts though, just not to other countries or the rich. Handouts from the American government should be reserved for the Americans who need them. Argentina engaged in one of the most radical "free-market" experiments in world history and it's failing miserably and now requires government intervention to save. I'm sure you all will learn an important lesson here....

Immigrants emigrate all the time. You guys can try to pick apart my pointed joke all you want lol.

1) I didn't say he killed 20 million people. I said he was an immigrant who committed crimes, which you seem to acknowledge is true. You have a hard on for me so you jumped in trying to play gotcha and fell on your face again. 2) Nothing I wrote was copy or pasted or AI. It was memory from a book I read 15 years ago. 3) Good job by Trump on the ceasefire. Shows how morally bankrupt Biden is. That deal has been on the table for nearly 2 years. Trump finally had the stones to force the Israelis to accept it (should have done it much earlier, but better late than never). Hopefully, he holds them to their word. I read books for a living. Stop obsessing over me. It's pathetic.

No. I know that he (and his Spanish colleagues) killed tens of thousands (at the minimum) of the indigenous inhabitants of Haiti and the Dominican Republic where he landed - either through enslavement, execution, or mutilation. He wrote about it in his personal diary, which you can read for yourself. For example, he placed a gold tax on the natives. Unfortunately for them, there was no gold on the island. Punishment for failing the tax was amputation of a hand. They usually bled out afterwards. Those that fled were hunted down and killed. Not everybody is as ignorant as you. Some people actually do read books and know things about history and the world.

You should read up on your history if you think that's the only killing you think he did.

I thought you guys hated immigrants that commit crimes?

You're a sick freak if that's your genuine response to an image like that. You need Christ.

Enlighten us.

You don't get to commit a crime against humanity for 2 years then move on like it never happened. Gaza must be rebuilt and Palestine must be free. This is a first step towards that. Never Forget.

Fair. "Militants" would have been a better choice of words. Doesn't really change the substance of the post though.

Israel violated the 2021 ceasefire with airstrikes in Gaza prior to 10/7.

1) Hamas murdered Israeli civilians - war crime. Should be prosecuted and the ICC has issued warrants. 2) The overall attack was perfectly legitimate under international law. IDF soldiers are legitimate targets of war, just like Hamas soldiers are legitimate targets. 3) It is undeniable - though mainstream Western media will take years to finally report on this - that the majority of Israeli civilians killed on 10/7 were killed by the IDF. The evidence is overwhelming. The Hamas invaders did not have the firepower to level neighborhoods and incinerate cars. That was done by Israeli tanks and helicopters as they engaged with Hamas. Civilians were caught in the crossfire. There are videos of this all over the place. There are videos of Israeli tank commanders acknowledging that they killed civilians. John Mearsheimer lays out the facts here: Testimonials from IDF soldiers on killing Israeli civilians on 20/7:

Has the government released documentation? Can you post the link?

Yes, looking forward to detailed documentation of this exposed conspiracy. When do you think we'll get that?

Because the Israelis are the ones who showed up at their door and told them they had to leave.

Of course not. You seem to have forgotten 1947 though. Only you guys could view having massive amounts of your land taken from you without compensation as "starting the conflict."

take your own advice. history didn't begin on 10/7.

Many of them don't, you're right. The main difference is that we act like one country is evil and the other is righteous, and then we fund the "righteous" one so they can actually carry out their genocidal desires. As long as there is asymmetrical power created by the West, this conflict will continue. The West has the power to do the right thing - enforce a peace process and begin a reconciliation process in both countries to re-educate them to view the others as human beings with shared interest and fates.

“For I did not consider myself justified in exterminating the men—in other words, killing them or having them killed—and then allowing their children to grow up to wreak vengeance on our children and grandchildren. The difficult decision had to be taken to make these people disappear from the face of the earth.” -Heinrich Himmler, 1943

We don't have to believe either of them. It's on video. We can watch for ourselves.

The public can watch a video and see whether the car was actually driving towards the officer as they claimed. Hilarious that you guys pontificate about freedom and when it comes down to it, your entire worldview is "I trust whatever the authorities tell me as a matter of faith as long as I support them politically."

Well, what do you know? The bodycam footage must be released immediately so the public can judge the truth for themselves. Body-camera video of a Border Patrol agent involved in the shooting of a woman who was allegedly chasing agents in Brighton Park over the weekend shows an officer saying, “Do something, b----,” before pulling over and shooting the woman five times, the woman’s attorney said in federal court Monday. The video appears to contradict the government’s allegation that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire on her late Saturday morning on Kedzie Avenue near 39th Street, her attorney, Christopher Parente, said at a detention hearing at the Dirksen Federal Courthouse. https://www.wbez.org/public-safety/2025/10/07/marimar-martinez-anthony-ian-santos-ruiz-border-patrol-shooting-brighton-park

So what? There are a few states that do that, but most have manslaughter, including Illinois where this happened, so what do you think you're proving?
