The only apartheid is in Muslim lands. How many Jews live in Muslim countries? Most of them have killed or expelled all their Jews, while some - such as Lebanon and Saudi Arabia - do not allow Jews on their soil, even as visitors, to this very day.
1.8 million Arabs live in Israel as full Israeli citizens, where they serve in the Israeli Knesset (Parliament), on the Israeli Supreme Court, in the Israeli Defense Forces, as EMTs, doctors, lawyers, police officers, judges, businessmen, CEOs, and everything else, working side-by-side with Israeli Jews. There are more Arab than Jewish doctors per capita in Israel. The biggest bank in Israel has an Arab as its CEO. An Arab judge put a former Israeli president into prison after convicting him of a crime.
If you really want to find out the facts, then open your mind and learn, please.

It is in our interest to live in a stable world, and not let bad actors like China, Russia, North Korea and Iran throw their weight around.
In the 1930s, the civilized world was so appalled by the fresh memory of the mass destruction of The Great War that most people's instincts were to withdraw inward from the global scene. Winston Churchill understood the danger posed by Germany, but the masses were so desperate to avoid another war that they attempted to buy peace at any cost, including ceding the Sudetenland to Germany. It backfired terribly, of course: Feeding the shark didn't satisfy the shark, it fed its appetite for more. The result was a global war which made the first one look small by comparison.
The Democrats didn't learn that lesson all too well. In the 1970s and 1980s, seeking to appease the Soviet Union as the Evil Empire expanded into unwilling target countries, the left tried to make nice with the Soviets. Thankfully, Ronald Reagan took a hard stance and, together with help from Pope John Paul II and others, helped save the free world.
It is unfortunate that there are now hard leftists such as Tucker Carlson masquerading as conservatives and pushing Bernie Sanders's old 1980s' approach (in Tucker's case, lining up with Bernie not only in regards to foreign policy and "Russia First", but also in domestic policy as well, favoring heavy government intervention in the economy). That leftist approach is a proven failure. The three-step conservative stool that Ronald Reagan made famous included a muscular foreign policy, one that told the bad guys to not even think of starting up with us. The Reagan approach saved the free world in his time; the fact that other countries benefited should not make anyone forget how much it turned us around, saving the United States from the malaise into which Jimmy Carter's disastrous policies had placed us.
Right now, thanks to some dreadful policy positions enacted by Joe Biden and supported by the likes of Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens, the US looks incredibly weak. Tinpot dictators like those in Afghanistan, Russia and Iran laugh in our faces; Biden's response is to provide them with money and/or arms with which to even further target Americans with deadly attacks.
For those who claim that those awful policy prescriptions are Trumpian and "America First"? No, they are not, not in the least, not even close. Trump is proud that he started no wars; let us not forget that he did so by using American strength to intimidate the malevolent characters around the world into piping down and staying in their respective lanes. As to "America First"? American weakness is not "America First"; it is far closer to "America Last". Do you feel safer now with Joe Biden in office than you did while Donald Trump occupied the Oval Office? I sure don't.
Every time you hear a supposed "conservative" saying they want to reign in the military and use that money instead on domestic (read: welfare) spending, close your eyes and imagine it is 1979. Because those faux "conservatives" are pushing policies championed by Jimmy Carter, Bernie Sanders, and the rest of the far left, policies that came all too close to leaving our country in ruins.

@pj4340
Why did you write "Your number one was Marjorie Greene"? What does that even mean?
MTG said some absolutely batshit crazy stuff, mostly before she was elected. She retracted and apologized for much of it. She never actually claimed that "Jewish Space Lasers" started the California wildfires; that quote is wildly distorted.
Ultimately, no one believes she is actually anti-Semitic, just wacko.
In US history, committees were staffed by members put on there by their own parties. Then two years ago Democrats did something unprecedented: They began removing Republicans from a bunch of committees, based upon pretty much nothing. The Republicans warned that if the Democrats played that game, they would regret it once the GOP got the majority, but the Democrats ignored that and yanked a bunch of Republicans off committees anyway. Everyone knew what was coming next, once the Republicans gained the House.
The three Democrats targeted for removal from committees by the GOP are legitimate problems: Omar, an America hater and raging anti-Semite who had no business being on the Foreign Affairs committee, plus Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff, removed from the Intelligence Committee after the former was involved with a Chinese spy and the latter lied repeatedly for two years about information he falsely claimed to have received from his committee. Turns out that the Republican payback was mild compared to the misdeeds of the Democrats.
In politics, weakness is not niceness: it's deadly. If you let the other party break all the rules and don't care, then they will destroy you.

@mikeparker6322
I was certain Trump would choose a woman or a minority. He didn't, and he won, beating a woman. McCain chose a woman, and no one cared. Mondale ran with a woman in 1984, and lost 49 states to 1. Kamala Harris got crushed in the primaries last year, despite being a woman of color. Clarence Thomas was slandered horribly when he was nominated to the Supreme Court.
Obama won because he was intelligent, good looking, and very smooth, while Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and Douglas Wilder went nowhere in their attempts to win the Democrat nomination for president.
The list goes on: That stuff is usually quite overrated. On the rare occasions it matters, it is only when the Democrat candidate is the appropriate minority. As I noted above, the leftist media saves their worst and most vicious slander for conservatives of color. Have you noticed what they said about Winsome Sears in the last few days? There is literally nothing negative about her, but that doesn't stop the leftist slanderers in the media.
Although Tim Scott is respected on Capitol Hill as a quiet, hard-working, intelligent, well-informed, and professional individual, the media would paint him to be the total opposite. We know why: Successful conservative minorities spells doom for the left's false narrative, so they resort to anything and everything, no matter how vile, in order to protect their brand.
I would love Scott as a VP candidate in 2024 (or beyond), and would prefer a more aggressive sort on top of the ticket, such as Tom Cotton. But either way, I don't think color or gender will sway the election.

@rxw101
Israel is not occupying anything.
Israel was never and has never been indigenous Arab land. Look at a map of Arabia; Israel is not there.
The term "Palestinian" is false, recently made up for political purposes.
The PLO invented the term "Palestinian" in the 1960s. It is utterly bogus.
Walid Shoebat, a former Muslim terrorist who at that time lived in the area that became known as the "West Bank," (another invented term) said "how can I go to bed as a Jordanian one day, and wake up the next day as a Palestinian?"
Then-PLO Executive Committee member Zahir Muhsein, in a 1977 interview, said: "The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality there is no difference between Jordanians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for our political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since the Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct ‘Palestinian people,’ to oppose Zionism.”
There are many, many more quotes like that. 60 years ago, there was no term "Palestinian" to refer to Arabs living in Israel.
Jews have been living in Israel for thousands of years continuously.
When the British mandate was rolling to a close early in the 20th century, they sought to give land to both Jews and Arabs. The Jews accepted every offer. The Arabs turned down every one.
The day that Israel began on its own rather small part of the British mandate area, and only on the part given to Israel, they were attacked by six Arabs countries who swore to push them into the sea. That failed. Five Arab countries tried again in 1967. That failed spectacularly. Then an Egyptian-led coalition of five countries in 1973 that initially succeeded, but ultimately failed.
Every attempt at handing an Arab state to the so-called "Palestinians" has been turned down by the "Palestinians". That includes several before 1948, again in 1948, and again in 1998, and 2000, and 2008. Every time the "Palestinians" say no, demanding every inch of Israel, and the end of the Jews - at a minimum those living in Israel, although some call for the death of every Jew worldwide.
Israel offered Gaza to Egypt many times in the past. Egypt refuses to take it.
Israel left Gaza completely in 2005, and pushed to help establish it at as a peaceful home for the Gazans, aid included. Instead Hamas took over, and turned it into a terrorist nest, attacking civilians mostly in Israel, but also in Egypt. That is when both Egypt and Israel erected a separation for the protection of their own respective civilians.
Note that Egypt and Jordan were among the countries that had previously declared war against and attacked Israel. Israel has always offered peace to any Arab or Muslim country that wanted it. Egypt accepted in 1978/1979, and Israel gave back the entire Sinai desert, captured from Egypt five years earlier. Israel and Egypt currently have a very good working relationship.
Jordan accepted a peace deal in 1994. Since then they have a cold peace with Israel, but peace it still is.
Note that Israel made peace three years ago with Bahrain, Oman, and the UAE, and was coming very close to making peace with Saudi Arabia, a country which had attacked Israel many times (1948, 1967, and 1973). It was this outbreak of peace with the Sunni world (85% of Muslims) that caused Iran-backed Hamas (all of whom are Shia) to attack Israel.
Also note that the "Palestinians" have been in and out of many Muslim countries over the years, and have fomented upheaval and war in all of them, leading to their expulsion. They nearly overthrew Jordan, so Jordan killed 2,000 and expelled 30,000 "Palestinians". Beirut was once called the "Paris of the Middle East", until 1975 that is, when the "Palestinians" turned it into a civil-war torn hellhole.
Kuwait recently kicked out over 100,000 "Palestinians".
The Syrian civil war has been about Assad (truly an evil man) trying to get rid of his "Palestinian" problem. Asaad has killed hindreds of thousands of them; the world pays no attention.

@charlytaylor1748
Last year I got hit with Covid, age 49, 165 lbs. Sickest I've ever been, two weeks in bed, missed three weeks of work. Anyway, the older one is, the less he needs to worry about long term effects. I will grant you, though, that should you get Covid, you are highly likely to come out of it okay. But I still think that the risk of Covid is greater than the risk of vaccination. But hey, free country. Or at least it should be.

@bigperm3853
Wow, are you serious? How ignorant can you be? I mean, for starters, did you even bother to watch the three minute video upon which you are commenting? Apparently not. Try doing so before you comment. Just in this video, it is 27 to 0.
Here in the US, the supporters of trans child abuse cite WPATH, a radical trans special interest group which has no actual facts on its side. Medical centers which performed such atrocities used WPATH as a fig leaf to cover for their atrocities, which were actually done for money-making purposes, as exposés have shown. As Crenshaw said here and the witness could not refute, every study using any serious length of time and sizeable group done by non-interested parties has shown that trans surgeries has negative results. It also has an extremely high rate of complications. And those numbers predate the current trans craze, in which nearly 100% of those identifying as trans do not actually have gender transphoria. Are you familiar with the issue of Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria? Studies have shown that a minimum of 90% of those who consider going trans who then choose to wait on it eventually grow out of it, and are thankful not to have acted on it medically. Which is one reason why European countries have been rapidly moving against allowing trans surgeries and puberty blockers: the statistics show that disaster is the usual result.
Exactly what do you think happened in this video? What do you think Abigail Shrier discovered in her comprehensive research, including looking at every trans study ever done? What do you think about Dr. Miriam Grossman, who may be the world's foremost expert on such matters? Have you even bothered to spend five minutes on finding out the truth, or are you just regurgitating the mainstream media's nonsense? Are you even aware of the whistle-blower at the St. Louis trans clinic who exposed the horrific abuse going on there amid the larger issue of the child maiming that is giving trans "medical care"? Did you watch any of Megyn Kelly's shows with various experts on the topics - including Dr. Miriam Grossman, Carrie Prejean, Britt Mayer and others? Why do you think so many European countries have now banned transgender surgeries on minors after having allowed them until just a couple of years ago? It is because the studies are in, and the dangers off the charts.
Beyond all the above, I recommend reading the highly perceptive article by Christina Buttons called "What the Recovered Memory Movement Can Tell Us About The Gender Affirmation Movement". It explains well what is going on in this trans craze, a temporary situation if ever there was one, with its brief moment in the sun already being exposed and rejected rapidly.
There, I just provided plenty of information. Just by reading the books of Dr. Miriam Grossman and Abigail Shrier, or by merely watching any full length interview or speech that each has done, you will hear about the long-term studies, not a single one of which has shown that trans surgery or puberty blockers are of benefit. And if you follow up on the rest of the stuff I gave you, you'll learn even more. Do so, then get back to me.
