70% of the Palestinians cheered October 7th and did horrorfic things to the Israelis themselves and when 9/11 happened they were in the streets cheering. I have no sympathy for them.Hamas are masters of propaganda, though they often give their lies away by accident, such as showing the malnourished child to elicit sympathy, and then zooming out and showing the chubby mother and also using real footage of famine, but taken in the Yemen, but claiming it to be gaza.
One of the other tricks played on you the viewer, who they are trying to gain support from, is that these children,and you notice it is always children, you don't see adults in these reports showing such advanced signs of malnourishment, is that because of the allowing of first cousin marriages, genetic problems like this do occur more frequently than outside muslim communities.
Very valid point. Thanks for the reminder. Too many people like to forget these things and then wonder why it then goes off the rails. As I said. Parking lot.70% of the Palestinians cheered October 7th and did horrorfic things to the Israelis themselves and when 9/11 happened they were in the streets cheering. I have no sympathy for them.

Gary:I think this shooting deserved the news coverage it got. It happened in midtown Manhattan, 4 people shot. A police officer was one. All totally innocent victims. It isn't the same as when 4 people in the hood get shot because someone "called them out of their name." For you folks that was a term I heard hundreds of times in North St louis meaning there was some verbal dispute between the parties. Speaking of North St Louis I don't know why the local news even reports a shooting that happened there. There is 1, 2 or 3 a day. It is bigger news if my mail is delivered late. But the phrase that drives me crazy is "they are food insecure" There is not one child in the USA that is laying there with a bloated stomach and flies landing on their face.
Just for friendly debate. Don't know about your area but these food givaways you see on the news where they pull up in a brand new car and get a box full of food. Don't look like they are "food insecure". Or mama with her foot long eye lashes and nails is complaining about lack of food. Get the picture. I'll grant you some kids are not getting the best foods but to say there is "hunger" in the USA, can't and won't buy it. Now I will grant you if the parent, and I would guess these are mostly one parent homes, are junkies or some other form off addiction the kids will suffer. But the only fix for that is for family services to take the kids away from that parent which is not easy to do. And eventually the parent would get them back and the whole process would start again. You know who I truly feel sorry for are the people in wheelchairs, walking with a white cane or some clear physical disability. For them give them 100% what they need. The others who I would guess caused there own demise, ----'em. Jason before I close out I am not arguing that there is not poverty in the USA. But there are all sorts of programs to help those people whether government or social.Gary:
I respect your posts as well as your career as a a police officer.
However, children don’t need flies in their face or a bloated belly to know hunger aka “food insecurity”.
They rely on adults to provide their needs. They did not ask to be here.
And lest you think that hunger is an inner city problem relegated to minorities, you need to look into the below poverty levels found in the white/caucasian dominated Appalachians.
