Yeah, but they had bagels and lox for breakfast beforehand…

Intermittent fasting went from trendy to heroic just like that.

His complaint about the Times doesn’t make any sense. They staged a large operation in Rafah as a diversion for the rescue. Of course it would have been horrible for those civilians involved.

I don’t think we can refer to these reactions as “Strange” anymore.

Jewish Event at UC Berkeley cancelled because of violent protestors. Even the administration is upset. Attendees had to be evacuated through an underground tunnel.

Underground tunnel...

Aboveground tunnel

@Copper that should be temporary aboveground tunnel.

Lotta continued to shout while other demonstrators stood in place and held signs such as “Where’s Snyder’s moral outrage over US backed genocide in GAZA?” and “Hitler killed 6 million Jews and Stalin saved 1.6 million Jews.”

She is an ambassador of stellar grace and proportionality for the Palestinian cause.

[LuFins Dad]

She would be wonderful to have a calm rational debate with.

[George K]

I would file charges - that's assault and battery.

Always wondered what happened to Carrot Top

[Mik]

Actually, what happened to Carrot Top is worse. He's quite aged now and still stuck doing the same old schtick, but in a bad wig.

That'd be hilarious, actually.

Galloway, representing the far-left Workers Party of Britain after being ejected from the Labour Party two decades ago, was elected with just shy of 40% of the vote. He had based his campaign around appealing to the large Muslim minority in Rochdale.

“This is for Gaza,” he opened his acceptance speech Friday morning, accusing the opposition Labour Party of “enabling, encouraging and covering” Israeli actions in the war in Gaza. The Labour Party had no candidate on the ballot in Rochdale after withdrawing its support for a candidate who had been found to have made antisemitic remarks and entertained conspiracy theories about the Oct. 7 attacks on Israel.

Galloway is an ardent anti-Zionist who was expelled from the Labour Party in 2003 for his opposition to the Iraq War and support for deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. He subsequently won elections in east London and Bradford, another town in northern England, by running populist, Middle East-centric campaigns aimed at Muslim voters.
