As horrific and evil as Hamas’ attacks were, Israel has shown itself to be 10-15X as murderous! The Palestinian civilian population is JUST AS INNOCENT as the Israelis slaughtered by Hamas, yet Israel has slaughtered 15X as many innocents as Hamas! In the beginning, right after the initial atrocities, Israel might have been forgiven for striking back fiercely, but what it has done, and what it is still doing is BEYOND THE PALE! Israel has SQUANDERED any moral superiority it one enjoyed. Israel has shown itself to be as vicious, as murderous, and therefore in the same league of evil as the Nazis. They deserve no more “special status.” In fact after this we might want to blockade Israel until it achieves a balanced, equal TWO-STATE SOLUTION. I say Israel should not be forgiven until it has split Israel in two, and turned over AN EQUAL HALF to Palestine, and guaranteed its security.

Uvalde police declared this to be a “barricaded situation,” rather than a “hostage situation,” DESPITE KNOWING THAT THERE WERE CHILDREN IN THE SAME ROOMS AS THE KILLER, AND THAT THEY WERE STILL ALIVE.
I would like to hear how the Uvalde police explain that! If they don’t have a good explanation, and I doubt very much that they do, they should face dereliction of duty charges. If there is no such thing, there should be!
They should also be sued, for 21 wrongful deaths, and the settlements should be an order of magnitude larger than usual, to compensate for the violation of public trust a regular army of police committed, when they failed to prevent a heavily armed killer from MURDERING many of 19 children and 2 adults - for 77 minutes.

Biden didn’t create this. YOU are a GD LIAR. YOU try to regulate the airline industry! YOU try to do what needs to be done! The truth is, profits are SUCH an important element in every American business, that scrimping on costs like their computer systems is ROUTINE! OTHER nations have national systems, which do all the routine replacements and upgrades REGARDLESS OF COST, out of government revenues, so that those systems are much more reliable.
The American refusal to permit the government to own essential utilities is what is at the bottom of the present crisis (it’s still a crisis until everyone affected is PAID). Biden didn’t create the current problem. It is much bigger than anyone knew. If the FAA is found to be responsible for this crash, and these costs, THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD PAY. THE VICTIMS SHOULD NOT BE FORCED TO BEAR THE COSTS!
It may not be Biden’s fault that we are in this mess, but he IS IN FACT responsible for fixing it, the only caveat being that capitalism is so deeply entrenched in the US that meaningful upgrades, to the system, may be impossible. It may be NECESSARY to NATIONALIZE the airlines industry to affect the necessary changes.
THAT might be the best thing that ever happened to American air transportation, if it ever happens.

Just what we need! The American airline industry must be among the worst in the world, judging from cancellations! It must be REQUIRED to reimburse cancelled passengers for their ENTIRE costs, including ALL expenses, e.g. hotels, meals, ground transportation, time lost AND for the loss of their vacations (so that they can buy new vacations, including paying their employers for their additional loss) or other activities. I once calculated the costs, to the airlines, of the X-mas cancellations, and the total came to SEVERAL TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS. I hope the airlines have good insurance, or a lot more cash on hand than I think they have… If they can’t pay everybody they owe, everything they owe them, in a timely manner (in time for their customers to recover completely, including new trips to Barbados, etc.), the US SHOULD NATIONALIZE THEM. They are OBVIOUSLY INCOMPETENT to run the airlines themselves. Exceptions can be made for airlines which fulfill their obligations.

A lot of toxins smell sweet. Norfolk Southern owes the residents of East Jerusalem full restitution for their losses, every single one of them, plus a sum for suffering and severe inconvenience. They should pay full, pre-trainwreck prices for anyone who wants to sell, moving costs and work and income losses to both employee and employer. They should pay for healthcare insurance for every person exposed to their chemical smoke. For people who stay, they must install a new public water system, drawing water from a distant source. Norfolk Southern is a giant rail company, which uses as few as ONE employee to run a mile-long train, and makes billion dollar profits. I’d like to suggest that this problem, as well as many others, is caused by EXCESSIVE CAPITALISM. Much too much weight is given to the needs of corporations to make profits, and much too little is given to the needs of workers to make a living, and even to simply live. We don’t need to give it up entirely, but it needs ti be taken under strict control. We should allow far less freedom and power to corporations, and far more to The People and OUR needs.

There was a time Elon Musk WAS telling the truth, when he was talking about business and technology. But now that he has branched out, he seems to be succumbing to the pressure.
For a few years now, his words and his actions have become increasingly strange. He took a submersible to Indonesia to rescue cavers trapped in a cave, then he had a fit when they wouldn’t let him try to ”fly” in, in his tiny submarine! The truth is, it was much too dangerous. They had a better way…
It should be no big surprise that a man who has just, in little more than a decade, built 2 world-class, ultra-innovative, forward-reaching companies, almost from scratch, might be on the verge of cracking. Maybe he has already cracked. But far from being very hard on him, I think he deserves some compassion.
Think about what he has contributed to society! And never doubt that those 2 companies, Tesla and Space-X, are AMAZING innovations, AMAZING contributions, that will be major parts of our civilization from now on! Musk may, sadly, be losing his mind, but he has given us so much…
