This is getting scary...open rhetoric about getting rid of due process...not like it’s a cornerstone of our democratic process or anything.

Is it your position that Crimea is a part of Russia?

territorial gains

self defense

The incident comes after the Syrian army and allied forces pounded rebel-held areas in the strategic region bordering Jordan and the Golan Heights. Thousands of civilians have fled to safer opposition areas along the border with Jordan and Israel, aid workers and rebels said.

The bombings were supported by Russian aircraft, marking the first time in a while that Russian aircraft attacked targets so vigorously in southern Syria. Aa a result, it is likely that the Israeli side of the border will likely remain particularly alert.

The Syrian army's offensive threatens to wreck a de-escalation zone agreed by the United States and Russia last year and risks drawing Washington deeper into the war. Israel and Russia agreed in the fall of 2015 on a mechanism to prevent friction in the skies over Syria. A short time later, Russia sent two squadrons of combat planes to assist the Assad regime against the rebels.

and in this case Israel was the one shooting a rocket. it's unclear to me why you thought otherwise considering I posted the entire AP piece earlier up thread.

.@jimmyfallon is now whimpering to all that he did the famous “hair show” with me (where he seriously messed up my hair), & that he would have now done it differently because it is said to have “humanized” me-he is taking heat. He called & said “monster ratings.” Be a man Jimmy!

Trump on the number of Americans who have been killed by "illegal aliens" since 9/11: "63,000. That number that they say is very low because things aren't reported. 63,000. You don't hear about that."

Arizona is one of six states that specifically allow pharmacies or pharmacists to refuse to fill a prescription based on religious or moral reasons.

The law does not require them to refer the patient to another pharmacist or transfer the prescription to another location.

Shall we start counting rockets launched, wars started and terrorist suicide bombers? I’d say you had lost the larger perspective due to one incident but it’s unclear you had the larger perspective to begin with.

Israel is far from perfect. But any comparison with the wars started by the Arabs (who were very much united against Israel at war time) and the horrors committed by Arabs is asinine.

And contrary to your meaningless generalization, territorial gains are very much a part of self defence when your enemies have launched thousands of short-range rockets at your country.
