If you have a twitter account, the comments below the second clip will provide further amusement. Here are a few:
– Trump’s lying AGAIN! Liar, liar, pants on fire! Per Anthony Hopkins, aka Hannibal Lecter. “I refuse to comment in public about U.S. politics and world events because the opinions of actors and actresses simply aren’t worth anything!”
– Hannibal Lector wasn’t an actor, Donald
– It’s highly embarrassing that grown adults worship this blithering idiot
– Thats his entire personality summed up in one sentence, right there folks. Narcissist
– This is a presidential campaign? Never has anything to say that’s good for the country. It’s all about what’s good for him. How can he help himself. Or, it’s about everyone who is going to be punished for going against him. How does he live with himself.
– North Korea figured this out. In fairness, though, so did many of our enemies, just say “I love Trump” and he goes absolutely gaga. It is like talking to a five-year-old, do you like me? I like you, we’re friends.
– He is so insecure it’s sad
– He would put Hannibal Lecter in his cabinet if he said enough nice things about him. That why he’s constantly surrounded by yes men, clowns and hustlers.
– Narcissistic lunatic
– Lecter was thinking Trump would be a tasty accompaniment to his fava beans and his nice Chianti when he said he loved Donnie.
– Frontrunner for the GOP in 2024 is fundamentally a carnival act.
-I believe Hannibal Lecter is a fictional character….which tracks with tRump’s story.
-He meant, I love the taste of Donald Trump..ewwwww.. Wait no, not even Lecter would like that. Way way to greasy.

Blowback: How Israel Went From Helping Create Hamas to Bombing It
Hamas wants to destroy Israel, right? But as Mehdi Hasan shows in a new video on blowback, Israeli officials admit they helped start the group.
Mehdi Hasan, Dina SayedahmedFebruary 19 2018
What do you know about Hamas?
That it’s sworn to destroy Israel? That it’s a terrorist group, proscribed both by the United States and the European Union? That it rules Gaza with an iron fist? That it’s killed hundreds of innocent Israelis with rocket, mortar, and suicide attacks?
But did you also know that Hamas — which is an Arabic acronym for “Islamic Resistance Movement” — would probably not exist today were it not for the Jewish state? That the Israelis helped turn a bunch of fringe Palestinian Islamists in the late 1970s into one of the world’s most notorious militant groups? That Hamas is blowback?
This isn’t a conspiracy theory. Listen to former Israeli officials such as Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, who was the Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s. Segev later told a New York Times reporter that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat (who himself referred to Hamas as “a creature of Israel.”)
“The Israeli government gave me a budget,” the retired brigadier general confessed, “and the military government gives to the mosques.”
“Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel’s creation,” Avner Cohen, a former Israeli religious affairs official who worked in Gaza for more than two decades, told the Wall Street Journal in 2009. Back in the mid-1980s, Cohen even wrote an official report to his superiors warning them not to play divide-and-rule in the Occupied Territories, by backing Palestinian Islamists against Palestinian secularists. “I … suggest focusing our efforts on finding ways to break up this monster before this reality jumps in our face,” he wrote.
They didn’t listen to him. And Hamas, as I explain in the fifth installment of my short film series for The Intercept on blowback, was the result. To be clear: First, the Israelis helped build up a militant strain of Palestinian political Islam, in the form of Hamas and its Muslim Brotherhood precursors; then, the Israelis switched tack and tried to bomb, besiege, and blockade it out of existence.
In the past decade alone, Israel has gone to war with Hamas three times — in 2009, 2012, and 2014 — killing around 2,500 Palestinian civilians in Gaza in the process. Meanwhile, Hamas has killed far more Israeli civilians than any secular Palestinian militant group. This is the human cost of blowback.
“When I look back at the chain of events, I think we made a mistake,” David Hacham, a former Arab affairs expert in the Israeli military who was based in Gaza in the 1980s, later remarked. “But at the time, nobody thought about the possible results.”
Dr. John Campbell had a lengthy discussion with Prof. Angus Dalgleish a couple of days ago which I haven’t watched yet (link below), but he posted a short video yesterday discussing the main points of their lengthier discussion.
The main point is that the vaxes have destroyed or severely damaged individual’s immune systems so that patients who he had previously been treating for cancer, and who had their condition under control, have now succumbed to that disease.
I know of a couple of people who have died recently from cancer, they were living normal lives with their condition yet after taking the vax and boosters the cancer exploded.
Here’s something I didn’t know; donations to the Yes campaign in the Voice referendum are tax deductible, contributions to the No campaign aren’t tax deductible.
Thanks Johanna, my comment was based on the commentary of that Australian Agenda video I posted.
I think that the tax deductibility for corporations is a rort. If gigantic mega-corp XYZ Corporation has numerous subsidiary corporations, for example a mining company, an airline company, a gas and oil company, and a media company, and those businesses contribute to the Yes campaign, then they can claim those contributions against their tax liability.
However, if those contributions go to their media company for newspaper and TV advertising, then XYZ Corporation’s ledgers remain unchanged, it’s really just an internal fund transfer from one or more subsidiary’s to another.
If I was to transfer money from my saving account to my cheque account, I can’t claim a tax deduction for doing so.

Regarding the present war in Israel, things could get very messy if other parties join the fray.
The US kept a large stock of 155mm artillery shells in Israel to have it handy for a rainy day, but the US recently took that ammunition and gave it to the little green man in Kiev.
They did the same in South Korea, they took a large part of South Korea’s artillery ammunition to give it to the little green man, what will Seoul do if rocket man decides it’s time to pay a visit?
Rishi Sunak has extended the production cut-off date for petrol and diesel vehicles from 2030 to 2035. EV car owners just experienced a drop in the valuation of their vehicles and insurance costs have increased.
Just to toss in my ten sheqalim worth. It seems the new rulers of a country have three options if they want to survive:
Ghengiz Solution: slaughter everyone, destroy their history and graze your horses on the graves.
1920s Solution: move the population en-mass to another country. Used by the Turks. I believe Stalin did a knock up job.
Conversion: convert the existing population to your religion or else pay tax and be second rate citizen with no legal rights. Early Islam was the expert on that one.
Anything else and the country has a festering group that can be used by politicians and kept as perpetual victims.
The Israelis can’t do the later as there are no conversions. Barnes is good on this, as he compares Hamas to the Mob. It needs to perpetuate the problem to stay in power and obtain constant international money.
Voice violence erupts as voters clash at SEQ pre-polling booth
A man has been charged over a serious assault after a verbal altercation descended into violence between Yes and No voters at a South East Queensland pre-polling booth.
You got to admit the Hamas mob is dumb. They video the abductions and murders. The faces of the mob are very clearly seen. Israel will hunt down and kill each individual. Probably blow up their houses and more.
Hezbollah on the other hand, being Shia are far smarter. They are the dangerous ones. Hence the tank movements to the north.
1920s Solution: move the population en-mass to another country.
First used by the Assyrians in 800 BC. When they conquered the northern tribes of Israel, they moved the entire population to other recently conquered territories on the fringes of their empire, in the Caucasus, Steppes and Persia.
There the relocated tribes had as neighbours people with whom they shared no language, religious nor family connections with whom they could plot against Assyria.
Used by the Turks.
Ancestry.com recently published a DNA report which shows that half of the Turkish population is actually Greek. The Turks were a central Asian people who invaded Anatolia and forced conversion to Islam on the Greeks. The Turkish government complained about this report to Ancestry.com took it down.
Conversion: convert the existing population to your religion or else pay tax and be second rate citizen with no legal rights. Early Islam was the expert on that one.
Early Islam and current Islam. After the American invasion of Iraq the local Muslim strongman started calling on the small Christian and other communities to pay the Jizyah tax. How long before we start seeing the same demands in other places, Sweden for example.
Regarding the Jizyah tax, it is called a protection tax, to protect the unfortunate people from those who take the tax. It’s a protection racket, the Sicilian mafia learned how to do it after they were ruled by the Arabs for some time.
Since the weekend, I have been consuming the main topic of news. Photos, videos, stories, reports. I think anyone following the news will have seen images. Some are being censored due to the graphic content or have a warning attached. People need to see what has taken place.
How can it be described?
The politics of the Middle East is complex and I have a limited understanding of it. But we don’t need to be historians to understand this – innocent civilians going about their lives have been wounded, tortured, raped, murdered, taken as hostages. Children, women, men, elderly. There is no justification for this kind of massacre involving thousands of innocent people.
I have been thinking of how to post comments here on this subject. I want to avoid the images but not because they should be hidden away. They need to be viewed to understand the depth of the brutality that took place in Gaza a few days ago. But there is so much unfolding as a follow-on. Reactions, reflections, opinions. I want to share what I am picking up in the media, the same as some of you here on this blog have already been sharing.
I won’t post the links to everything as it gets hard to manage. But if you read something I have posted and want the link, let me know and if I have it, I’ll post it.
1/ Louise Perry (UK)
– The people cheering Hamas on the streets in the UK, Germany, Canada and elsewhere are telling us that they would commit the same atrocities here if they could, how clearer do they need to be?
– Speaking to Sky News on the sidelines of the event, Dana Abuqamar, president of the Manchester Friends of Palestine, said: “We’re really full of joy, full of pride at what has happened”‘
The question isn’t “why would she say such a thing?”
It’s “why is she here, and why are we permitting her to stay?”
.
2/ Josh – US
I was depressed all weekend over the images and stories of women and children being murdered in Israel. Still am.
To think some people in our country saw those same images and decided to take to the streets and celebrate it??
Disgusting. I don’t want those people in America.

I think anyone celebrating this murderous attack should be deported if they are not a U.S. Citizen.

5/ Riley Gaines
I can hardly stomach all the videos of what’s going on in Israel, but especially the ones where Israeli women are being kidnapped, tortured, raped and then paraded around.
All while chanting Allahu Akbar (God is great)… I’m sick
I’ve talked to quite a few about Israel and Hamas over last days. One aspect of the Sunni jihadi not understood in Australia, is their willingness to die. A superficial atheist country does not understand the strength of this belief. It is deep and part of the whole extended family structure. The family welcomes it as it ensures their, the family, entrance to paradise. They cry and wail at the funeral, but they know the jihadi is in paradise. This is why threatening them is pointless. Western security training has no concept of the ‘willingness to die’. Hamas, Al Qaeda and ISIS have all stated that they are unafraid to die. They mean it.
While we are on the topic All while chanting Allahu Akbar (God is great)… I’m sick
I believe Allahu Akbar actually means “our God is the greater”. Like Salam does not mean really “peace”, it means “submit” – as in submit to Allah.

I watched that video and Tate makes valid points. If that video was taken in isolation as his only commentary, it is easy to agree with him.
But check this response to a post from someone.
Easy to talk. Why is he living in comfort in Romania?

One aspect of the Sunni jihadi not understood in Australia, is their willingness to die. A superficial atheist country does not understand the strength of this belief. It is deep and part of the whole extended family structure. The family welcomes it as it ensures their, the family, entrance to paradise.
Is this willingness to die rooted in something that is real?
They have been brainwashed into a fiction about prophets and gods. If anyone dares to query the prophet,the great one or that book, they will have to flee to save their lives.
Western security training has no concept of the ‘willingness to die’. Hamas, Al Qaeda and ISIS have all stated that they are unafraid to die. They mean it.
Which has led to the western policy of appeasement.
Why not actually move to live in Palestine with his Muslim brothers? Will he still enjoy all his creature comforts, toys and cars?
Talk is cheap. Give up the safe mansion.
KC,
The Tate brothers have recently spent months in prison without charges being laid.
Andrew and Tristan put their balls on the line every day.
They cry and wail at the funeral, but they know the jihadi is in paradise. This is why threatening them is pointless. Western security training has no concept of the ‘willingness to die’.
Not the smartest idea of the Jews to create Hamas in order to weaken Yasser Ararat’s secularist Fatah party.
This afternoon, in Sydney, I briefly waved an Israeli flag off to the side of a pro Palestian protest. I was on the steps of the Anglican Cathedral…
…I took a tiny stand because we cannot, we must not, give in to such fear. We cannot fear upsetting Islamic sensibilities and so self-censor our speech and religion and policing./em>
Jew detained for waving Israeli flag as thousands of Pro-Palestinians cheer
Sydney – Town Hall
There are times when we can take individual “tiny” stands and our protest will count. We can do a solo “resistance” as discussed in the Resisting the Reset post.
Sometimes, a group resistance is required.
They organise a protest and do it as part of a crowd.
We make the mistake of going solo.
The Anglican clergyman is right. We cannot give in to fear. But instead of doing it alone, he could have sent a message to some parishioners asking if they would like to join him.
Easy to do.
Then ten or twenty or fifty could have stood on the steps of the Cathedral with the flag.
The same with the Jew. He could have got a few more to join him.
The police would then have to decide how they were going to manage one group’s freedom to protest against another group’s freedom to support in this multi-culti-diversity-faith city.
The left know how to unite even when they are wrong.
We don’t. Because we think being right is enough, in all cases.

Before you think of sneering at the UN, here are “conservatives” in the US.

I watched that video and Tate makes valid points. If that video was taken in isolation as his only commentary, it is easy to agree with him.
But check this response to a post from someone.
Easy to talk. Why is he living in comfort in Romania?
Why not actually move to live in Palestine with his Muslim brothers? Will he still enjoy all his creature comforts, toys and cars?
Talk is cheap. Give up the safe mansion. Go and live in bomb shelters and fight for Palestine.

We are living in strange times.
Playboy has far higher standards than many media and other organisations.
Not sure if it was just this post…
Playboy’s response
I had no idea who this female was but I think she is a porn star. She hasn’t realised what her life would be in the Middle East as a woman. And a porn star.

Is this willingness to die rooted in something that is real?
They have been brainwashed into a fiction about prophets and gods. If anyone dares to query the prophet,the great one or that book, they will have to flee to save their lives.
It takes courage to say this publicly.
Personal thoughts from a Palestinian
Which has led to the western policy of appeasement.
Will they learn?

KC,
The Tate brothers have recently spent months in prison without charges being laid.
Andrew and Tristan put their balls on the line every day.

Not the smartest idea of the Jews to create Hamas in order to weaken Yasser Ararat’s secularist Fatah party.

The protests in Sydney yesterday.

There are times when we can take individual “tiny” stands and our protest will count. We can do a solo “resistance” as discussed in the Resisting the Reset post.
Sometimes, a group resistance is required.
They organise a protest and do it as part of a crowd.
We make the mistake of going solo.
The Anglican clergyman is right. We cannot give in to fear. But instead of doing it alone, he could have sent a message to some parishioners asking if they would like to join him.
Easy to do.
Then ten or twenty or fifty could have stood on the steps of the Cathedral with the flag.
The same with the Jew. He could have got a few more to join him.
The police would then have to decide how they were going to manage one group’s freedom to protest against another group’s freedom to support in this multi-culti-diversity-faith city.
The left know how to unite even when they are wrong.
We don’t. Because we think being right is enough, in all cases.

Why did they end up in prison?
Because they were unselfishly fighting a great battle on behalf of some noble cause?
For whom?
The vulnerable sections of society?
