Nearly all US Senate Democrats back two-state solution for Israel and Palestinians
How nice that they nearly all agree with one another.
[GEO.TV] An overwhelming majority of President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. We get to suffer the consequences...
's fellow Democrats in the Senate on Wednesday backed a statement reiterating US support of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict.

Forty-nine of the 51 members of the Senate Democratic caucus backed an amendment supporting a negotiated solution to the conflict that results in Israeli and Paleostinian states living side by side, ensuring Israel's survival as a secure, democratic, Jewish state and fulfilling the Paleostinians' "legitimate aspirations" for a state of their own.

Senator Brian Schatz introduced the measure as an amendment to an upcoming bill that would provide national security aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.

"What will determine the future of Israel and Paleostine is whether or not there's hope. And the two-state solution has to be that hope," Schatz told a news conference.

With war raging in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
between Israel and Hamas
...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...
, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a presser this month that he objected to any Paleostinian statehood that did not guarantee Israel's security.

#3  Nearly all US Senate Democrats back two-state solution for Israel and Palestinians

They would also support a 'two-state solution' for the United States, they've just not announced it yet.

#4  He;;, I'm not a democrat , but at this point I supoort a 2 state solution for the the US. Send all these leftist POS somewhere away from me, and In don't want to hear their shit on the TV anymore.
Posted by: Chris || 01/26/2024 8:45 Comments || Top||

#5  I think a two-state solution is a great idea. The only question is where to put the Paleostinian state. If it is anywhere within missile range of Israel, you know the Paleos are not going to be able to restrain themselves for more than a week. So, maybe somewhere in the Pacific, maybe the Chinese could build the Paleos an island. With enough Global Warming, Greenland could be an option.

National Guard Troops From Across The Country Begin To Arrive In Texas – Here's The Full List
[RightJournalism] Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) on Wednesday accused the federal government of breaking the compact with the states following a Supreme Court ruling on Monday that cleared the way for the Border Patrol to remove razor wire installed by Texas along the U.S.-Mexico border.

In a statement, Abbott said, "President Biden has refused to enforce [immigration] laws and has even violated them."

Earlier this month, Texas officials took over a public park on the shores of the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, using Texas National Guard troops to block the Border Patrol from accessing the park.

Texas Democratic Rep. Joaquin Castro was the first to call for a federalization of the Texas National Guard
then he went to the Barbie movie
, which as a military unit is ultimately under the command of President Biden as commander-in-chief.

Texas didn’t back down but decided to double up instead!

One day after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against the state of Texas in a legal battle with the federal government over wire barriers at the border, Montgomery County officials unanimously passed a resolution declaring an invasion and expressing support for Gov. Greg Abbott’s border security mission, Operation Lone Star.

After the vote Tuesday, Montgomery County Judge Mark Keough said he wanted to say something "in response to the Supreme Court ruling yesterday to allow Border Patrol agents to remove Texas barriers. I believe it is time for Texas to show some civil disobedience."

Things got very serious and it seems that Texas is receiving huge support!

Arkansas,Florida, Iowa, Idaho, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Wyoming, Montana and Georgia.

Update: Now 25 states:

#1  A Texas STATE Guard (not the Texas NATIONAL Guard) building across the street from where I live appears to be fortifying it's building against Feds today. Concrete barriers are now in place at the larger entrances. More people are there. Window blinds are pulled down and glass on doors now have one way film. I walked by to behold all of this fortifying activity as a guardsman pulled in and exited his vehicle and he did not open the building door near his car and instead watched me, opening the door to enter the building only when I turned the corner onto another street.

#2  In other words they are definitely on high alert for "bogies".

#3  Also, the ones I saw there were not 18 19 year old wana be soldiers. These guys looked like 30-40 year old vets, still in great physical shape with very serious demeanors. Biden's deep state agents, even the FBI, wouldn't stand a chance against these dudes in a bar room brawl from what I could tell and I would think the deep staters are dreading a rumble.

#5  Your welcome TW. Military soldiers are trained to be one thing, killing machines. Is Biden really aware of what he is getting his people into or is he that ignorant?

#8  IMO, if Biden's handlers are smart, they'll treat it the same way they deal with Gaza Pest-control Op. Rant, and express concern, but won't actually interfere. After all, the situation as it is today is untenable. And beginning to hurt Dems core constituecy.

#10  ^^^ Besoeker, for real unit site. Lots of hardware there. Established in 1917, saw action in WWI and WWII. Participated in Salerno, Italy battle, after breaking out of Anzio, was the first unit to pass through Rome. Desert Storm battle, etc. Etc. Sign outside identifies them as Wolf Brigade, Logistics Support. Two WWII Sherman tanks grace the front lawn. Hopefully will add the Biden Bogies battle victors ribbon to their many decorations.

#11  /\ Yes, but hopefully symbolic at this stage. Minimal manning, an intentional media and FBI focal point. Actual planning and operations conducted at an alternate site.

Think US Embassy overseas.

#14  /\ Long, long overdue.
Posted by: Besoeker || 01/26/2024 7:53 Comments || Top||

#15  ^^^ There would be a tooth-and-nail fight to block an Article V Convention as it would be a serious threat to the Central Government's power.

It would be way worse than Trump in their eyes.

And most folks don't even realize what it is and that the Constitutional framers included this as a check for Federal overreach.

But then again, they are old dead white men.

#16  ^ Yeah, and for our trouble we'd probably end up with a constitution like that of Venezuela or Nicaragua.

#25  Is Biden really aware of what he is getting his people into or is he that ignorant?

Did Abe Lincoln and Jefferson Davis have the slightest idea what they were getting into? This is a high stakes game of chicken. I would not count on Biden to be the cooler head. Even if Texans think they have a legal right to secede, this could end very badly.

#26  bman sums it up in once sentence. I would add she slept her way to her position (lesb*an) and is a total machine tool.

She tried all the tricks the Big D states tried, up to and including wanting to send KS NG troops to the Agriculture Processors, canceling Easter, and using the Big Media of the Teacher's Union to shame people who left their house. You know, like what Ranchers do.

She was soundly told to fuck off, and even in her strongest positions, urban school districts, she only garnered partial compliance. "Come and Lock It."

It is red, with tiny little gray dots at Wichita, Topeka, Lawrence.

I would like to know what the loudest screamers of Muh Democracy think about a majority state support for Texas Policy?

Posted by Abu Uluque


"Secession" is only one pathway to a bad ending. There are a couple of others. If you think nearly everybody in Texas is pulling for Gov. Abbott, you're probably correct.

#31  Stop saying...if Biden this, if Biden that! Jesus! It's long been obvious that SOMEONE ELSE is driving the bus! Gosh, I wonder whom it could be? Obama maybe. ValJar maybe. If the Feds are foolish enough to try and use force, they are going to get their arses handed to them. There 254 counties in Texas and A general call to muster would result in ~15,000 per county. The US Army has ~400,000+ active duty. We can eclipse that in a heartbeat. Weapons? Well, we have our own. If we need big firepower we can requisition it from the military bases in Texas. I'm not in favor of secession, I am in favor of all of the Red States and Red Counties in Blue States forcefully removing the treasonous illegitimate cabal in power.

Yeah, one of my pet peeves. The guy is obviously not running anything more involved than a pudding cup and a nap. "The Secret Cabal Behind Joe Biden" is a bit too wordy and does not roll readily off the tongue.
