  7. You mean in Assad's Syria? Didn't the 22 Arab League States take him back. How many of the Arab League states ICC members?

  8. Total misread of reality if you think Trump is an isolationist or the world can cut trade with America. That's a complete fantasy

  9. "society"? We live in a reality of nation/states. We do not have one social system. If so, how would you view Iran and Afghanistan?

  10. Trump also a victim of political prosecution. Lawfare. In America we are presumed innocent and have the right of appeal. Trump will win on appeal. What chance does Netanyahu have with the ICC, they've already pronounced him guilty.

  11. 14 June 2007 Gaza taken over by Hamas in a bloody coup, it was then it became "restricted" by its own act of terrorism.

  12. Egypt doesn't want Gaza/Muslim Brotherhood Jordan doesn't want to relive Black September/PLO assassinations and civil war. Look in the mirror. Gaza was suicide by cop.

  13. Netanyahu born in Israel, his mother in the British Mandate. Are you a racists?

  14. "entire world"? I'd check which 22 Arab League nations are members.

  15. Trump sanctioned the ICC in 2020 during his first term. Biden overturned it, a lot of good that did. Trump will stop funding UNRWA again, too. He's keeping his campaign promises.

  16.  @ArielKaplan-rj9pw  US has veto power in the permanent security council. Russia isn't "done for" for the same reason.

  17. Trump sanctioned the ICC in 2020, he's just repeating himself. Biden overturned the sanction, a lot of good that did.

  18. Yeah, like that's going to happen.

  19. That's why were are ending USAID. No more $1 billion a year to Jordan.

  20. Majority of 22 Arab League states not signatories either.

  21. Not the ICJ. Wrong on that, it was the ICC. Trump was elected because of the political prosecution against him and why he's against the ICC which is all political in its sanctions.

  22.  @Communist-Doge  Hebrew was also spoken and written in 34 AD. Time of Jesus was greatly influenced by Hellenism, too. The Dead Sea Scrolls were primarily written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and a small portion in Greek. These ancient texts, discovered in the Qumran Caves near the Dead Sea, include some of the oldest known manuscripts of the Hebrew Bible.

  23.  @shalahuddinumar3386  "al-lah" is where "al" just means "the" and "lah" just means god.

  24.  @samiaramdani1204  what banks are those? Bank of England is the government of the UK? Bank of America started by Italians and now publicly traded? BNP Paribas is also publicly traded and primarily owned by institutional investors. What banks does Israel own exactly?

  25.  @SulphuricFury Elon Musk is Jewish?

  26.  @umarbbosa3197  How come Islam disagrees and says Jesus did not die on the cross and actually submitted to allah?

  27.  @Communist-Doge  Sure, Aramaic was a Semitic language, as were many in the region that went back thousands of years. Assyrians and Babylonians adopted it for government and trade. Both nations enslaved the Hebrews. Just like English today is the lingua franca for business and government communication worldwide, Aramaic played that secular role. But if Jesus was a Rabbi, he indeed both wrote and spoke Hebrew, and most likely told off the money changers in the Temple in Hebrew, not Aramaic.

  28.  @Communist-Doge  The Essenes were fluent in Hebrew. As a Jewish sect during the Second Temple period, they adhered to Jewish laws and traditions, which included the use of Hebrew for religious texts and rituals. Additionally, they likely spoke Aramaic, which was the common language of the region at the time. Their fluency in Hebrew is evidenced by the Hebrew texts found among the Dead Sea Scrolls

  29.  @Communist-Doge  The School of Hillel taught in Hebrew. Hebrew was the primary language for religious and scholarly texts during that time, and it was used extensively in the study and teaching of Jewish law and traditions. The Mishnah and Talmud, which contain the teachings of the School of Hillel, are written in Hebrew Are saying Jesus was not fluent in the Mishnah and Talmud?

  30.  @Communist-Doge  Recent archaeological excavations in the Galilee, particularly around the Sea of Galilee, have indeed revealed an ancient fishing village believed to be the home of Mary Magdalene. Excavations there have uncovered a first-century synagogue, a marketplace, and various artifacts that suggest the area was more developed and sophisticated than previously thought.

  31.  @Communist-Doge  Again, there were two major schools of Judaism at the time of the 2nd Temple. School of Hillel and the School of Shammai. Just like today, people are fluent in more than one language, and in the crossroads of Jerusalem, many languages were spoken and known, especially those Jews steep in Hellenism like Flavius Josephus. The life of the scholar at that time was not some illiterate carpenter in some backwater in the Galilei, which is being shown to be much more of a suburban area than previously thought. I have no believe in a historical Jesus, but do enjoy the history of the region in that time. The region was very cosmopolitan, in fact, that was one of the reasons the Jews were often in revolt. The leadership was well versed in Hebrew. Jesus would have read the commentaries in both Hebrew and Aramaic. Hebrew was used for the Mishnah, while Aramaic was used for the Gemara, the commentary on the Mishnah that together with the Mishnah forms the Talmud Unless you believe Jesus was just some sort of idiot savant imbued with his own word of god, he would have been bi-lingual. The New Testament is rife with analogs to the Hebrew text. Scholars agree. Scholars generally agree that the New Testament contains many linguistic terms with origins in the Hebrew language. While the New Testament was written in Koine Greek, it was heavily influenced by Hebrew and Aramaic. This influence is evident in the vocabulary, idioms, and expressions used throughout the New Testament

  32.  @Communist-Doge  That's conjecture about Jesus, since there is very little if any evidence of his existence, or Moses for that matter. I look at the history of the region, going back to the Akadians, and it's clear this area's language shifted and changed over time. No question Aramaic was dominant in the 1st Century. I live in a very multi-lingual area of Southern California. Some people live here without ever learning English, with Spanish as their primary language. That's human behavior, something that hasn't changed for perhaps 120,000 years. If you adhere to the biblical Jesus, it's clear he was a scholar, and most likely part of one of the dominant Jewish schools of the time. There's a debate as to which one. My current guess would be House of Shammai but some say the "Lord's Prayer" is more aligned with Hillel. 500 hundred years later the Byzantines and Persians went to war again, Jerusalem being right in the middle of the conflict. Jews migrated South into the Sinai and Negev where a new Abrahamic religion was born. The timeframe is not a coincidence.

  33. I'm in California, voted for Trump, who is not Berlusconi. I voted to disrupt the system, Trump doing a great job, and in less than 20 days.
