Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Summary

Former CIA Director Leon Panetta warned that Trump’s return to the White House could embolden Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, giving him a "blank check" in the Middle East and increasing the risk of war with Iran.

Panetta expressed concern that Trump would support Netanyahu's aggressive stance against Iran without restraint, potentially worsening regional instability.

Panetta also predicted Trump might allow Russia to retain parts of Ukraine if he returns to office, though he doubted Trump’s negotiation skills.

He criticized Trump’s approach to foreign policy, suggesting Trump would be inclined to "capitulate" to authoritarian leaders, which may not sit well with some Republicans.

How would that be different than the current plan under Biden?

You hold random people online more accountable than the politicians you support. Peak bootlicking behavior.

Libs still have zero self-awareness. Promoting genocide for months in the most condescending and futile manner... Then continuing to blame everyone else after they inevitably lose yet again.

Seriously Trump is a garbage person who would be easy to beat with Bernie, Michelle, etc. But the libs gotta impose their terrible politics on everyone. Gotta shove their genocide down our throats.

Which is totally nothing like the blank check they currently are getting.

Somehow the same people who thought they could make the argument of "neither party will stop what is happening in Gaza, so vote based on other issues" don't think israel already had a blank check. Now these same people are gloating as if the people of Gaza deserve to be genocided because the democrats didn't win. It's sick and it's illustrative of what's wrong with the "democratic" party.

Israel will lose that war.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
