    We postponed all deliveries into DC this week. We were supposed to deliver a unit to The Watergate, where Netanyahu is staying… The customer actually postponed that knowing the trouble…

      You missed the point. This isn’t the fact check thread.

      That's right. It's the "Foul reactions" thread.

      You didn't criticize my posting Omar's statement.

      You might disagree, but I'd characterize Warren's as foul and inappropriate.

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              It's about an hour, from what I can gather.

              Starts at about 0:33 and is over at 1:26.

                It began with lots of military hero stories. After that, was very standard rhetoric that you will have seen before on twitter or even here. "People who say from the river to the sea can't name the river or the sea", "Gays for Palestine is like chickens for KFC". The weakest rhetoric was when Bibi said "practically no civilians" had been killed, then admitted that actually 24 people were killed accidentally by a bomb, then reiterated that "practically zero civilians had been killed".

                I guess this is the stuff of political speeches, because this is the stuff that works best. Nobody is interested in hearing intelligent things, or not enough people are interested. Just ra ra rhetoric.

                Education is extremely important.

                  Prosecutors across America have dropped criminal charges against over 300 anti-Israel encampment protesters in recent months.

                  An analysis by Campus Reform found that 301 anti-Israel protesters who were arrested after participating in encampments at colleges and universities have had their charges dropped by local prosecutors.

                  The charges dropped by prosecutors range from trespassing, resisting a police officer, occupying a property without consent, battery, felony burglary, and more.

                  Local prosecutors dropped the following charges:

                  • School of the Art Institute of Chicago: 80 criminal charges were dropped.

                  • University of Texas at Austin: 79 criminal charges were dropped. Protesters were attempting to form an encampment.

                  • Indiana University: 56 criminal charges were dropped.

                  • Columbia University: 31 criminal charges have been dropped.

                  • California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt: 27 criminal charges have been dropped.

                  • University of Minnesota: 9 criminal charges have been dropped.

                  • University of New Hampshire: 8 criminal charges have been dropped.

                  • The City University of New York: 7 criminal charges have been dropped.

                  • Northwestern University: 4 criminal charges have been dropped.

                    Now, tell me again how prosecution and sentencing has not been selective.

                      Out of 3200 arrested? Less than 10%. That’s better than I would have thought.

                      Or any of us would have thought.

                      Only non-witches get due process.

                        Are you suggesting that the other 2800 are going to trial?

                          That would never happen under any conceivable scenario in any jurisdiction except police states that do mass show trials. Most cases are pled. Nowhere do we have resources to take every arrest to trial.

                            Good point. Do you think that 90% of the arrested/charged will plea to a lesser charge? Only will 2% go to trial if history is an indicator.
