Bibi is easy to guess (the Qatar strikes were a massive miscalculation given Trump's relations with them), not sure about Hamas (probably their capabilities have eroded).

I don't think any more Qatar misadventures are going to happen but I have a bad feeling that any peace in Gaza is unfortunately going to be short-lived. The ceasefire in January did not last long.

It really is astonishing just how high on his own supply Netanyahu is. He legit pissed off Trump with those Qatar strikes enough to get him to go for the ceasefire route, he alienated pretty much every country to finally declare it a genocide and yet he's still trigger-happy to bomb Gaza.

I took a semester of frog in college, so I’m a little rusty. But I believe roughly translated he said “ICE, gargle my balls.”

“There are just a lot of rumors flying around. But I figured if you heard it from me, you’d know that I was okay,” Dolly Parton said in a new two-minute video posted on Instagram. “I’m not ready to die yet. I don’t think God is through with me. And I ain’t done working.” https://to.pbs.org/4hc1DXB

The President of the United States is living in an alternate reality and it's long past time for media outlets to start talking about it.

We're beyond "Trump said without evidence." Trump is governing a world that only exists in his warped mind.

It cannot be stressed enough that the majority of right wingers that engage in culture war nonsense are people who have PsyOp'd themselves into seeing "pattern recognition" everywhere in the same way that biblical numerologists have a heart attack every time they see the number 666 somewhere.

At this point I'm convinced that Trump was/is a trafficker himself and 90% of House Republicans are implicated in the files.
