... as the main “resistance” (code word for terrorism)...
Were the French in WWII considered terrorists because they had a "resistance"?
Just wondering where these strange language and position statements come from. They may be terrorists but it is not because they are trying to removing an occupying army.

And Warren still thinks he should pay more in Taxes.
While the Kochs would rather spend a billion dollars corrupting politics so they don't have to pay taxes.
Here is a prime example.
Did Adelson spend nine figures on the election?
By Daniel Treiman · December 4, 2012
The Huffington Post reports:
Casino magnate Sheldon Adelson vowed to spend as much as $100 million to defeat President Barack Obama and help the GOP take control of Congress. According to two GOP fundraisers with close ties to the Las Vegas billionaire, he made good on that promise -- and then some. Adelson ultimately upped the ante, spending closer to a previously unreported $150 million, the fundraisers said.
Here are the details:
The two GOP fundraisers, both with strong ties to Adelson, said that the casino mogul dished out close to $150 million, including between $30 million and $40 million to the Karl Rove-founded Crossroads GPS and at least $15 million to grassroots efforts with financial links to Charles and David Koch. Among other major beneficiaries of Adelson’s largess were the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which received almost $5 million from Adelson, and the Republican Jewish Coalition, which got the bulk of its $6.5 million budget from him, the fundraisers said.
All of these are non-profit groups, which -- unlike the super PACs that raked in $54 million in funds from Adelson and his wife -- are not currently required to disclose their donors. Adelson’s public spending spree, larger than any other donor's in the last election, was made possible by two high court rulings in early 2010 that allowed corporations, unions and individuals to write unlimited checks to outside groups for political ads and other activities backing candidates.
Adelson’s spending may not have yielded many victories, but the casino tycoon still has the ears of Republicans.
Sources tell The Huffington Post that he’s heading to Washington, where will have meetings on Capitol Hill, including with at least one House Republican leader. The Huffington Post reports that “he is expected to discuss key issues, including possible changes to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the anti-bribery law that undergirds one federal probe into his casino network, according to a Republican attorney with knowledge of his plans.”
Meanwhile, Politico reported that some big-name Republicans who are considered presidential possibilities recently met with Adelson. Govs. Bobby Jindal, John Kasich and Bob McDonnell each visited Adelson’s Las Vegas gambling palace, The Venetian.
I am sure his desperateness to un-seat Obama had nothing to do with the fact that he is under Federal Indictment for fraud. Just a well meaning Billionaire expressing his right to flood the airwaves with fear, hate and lies. Your kind of Cockroach HackEye.

Its OBVIOUS that gaza is merely a terrorist stronghold being manipulated by the likes of the muslim brotherhood and Iran.
It is OBVIOUS that you are a racist dumb ass with out a clue.
How many family members do you have in Gaza?
How many of your family members were forced to flee their homes and homeland in 1948 under threat of annihilation by Jewish terrorist gangs.
How many of your family were killed by wanton and reckless Israeli aggression?
How many children have you seen killed?
You should not speak of what you do not comprehend.

Hawkeye you have no content. So rather than address issues like an adult you sling your monkey poo. You think your sh#t don't stink but the majority of ST posters can't stand the smell of you.
My knowledge of the real plight of the Palestinians vastly surpasses that of such staggering intellects such as you and Ron. But don't address that just keep slinging.

Sincere questions for you Ron.
Of all the hell fire and damage caused by the year long rain of terror out of Gaza what was the total toll on Israel?
How many wounded? How many dead? How many millions of dollars of destruction to homes and infrastructure?
Ron when you state you want the US out of the ME completely what do you mean?
Do you also include our financial support of Israel? Do you know how much in US tax dollars we give them annually? Do you know their cut is the first item payed every fiscal year? Even before we pay for essential services and even before we pay the interest on our debt.
Did you know that American financial support of Israel amounts to over $10,000.00 per Israeli citizen? Do you know what the equivalent per person expenditure of US tax dollars is on the Palestinians? Do you even remotely know what life is like in the Illegally Occupied Palestinian Territories? Does it not matter to you because you believe all Palestinians are inherently terrorists?
And as such you feel that the only good Palestinian is a dead a Palestinian?
Oh and one last question for you. Do you know who first used car bombs in Palestine?

Warren Buffet has donated $37 billion to charity.
Why are liberal businessmen so much more generous than the conservative ones?
Facts to back up that premise, Dave? Does someone with more money giving more money make him or her more generous?
I know cabbies and wait persons in the cities hosting the political conventions claim that Republicans are much more generous tippers than Democrats, and tax returns disclosed by candidates for public office almost uniformly show the Republicans pay a higher percentage of their incomes to charities than do Democrats.
In truth, I admire Buffet because he gets a big part of the picture -- those to whom much has been given owe much back. I'm not so sanguine on his right to tell people who make or own less than 1% (or, in the case of the proposed $250,000 cutoff for "the rich." less than 0.1%) of what he does what they should do with their money, particularly given his seeming intention to pay only what he thinks he owes in taxes, and not more.

How clever of you to not answer my questions. But where in all that was mention of your dreaded Muslim Brotherhood?
OK here is another. What means would you allow the Palestinians to use to resist the Illegal Occupation?
Simple question Ron. It is just your opinion I am asking for. And we all know you are nothing if not opinionated.

everyone should be allowed to have opinions....but when philo expresses his as facts, and turns fiction to facts and outright lies,, well, it just illustrates the mental disparity there is among him and his fellow cockroaches...
Do you also include our financial support of Israel? Do you know how much in US tax dollars we give them annually? Do you know their cut is the first item payed every fiscal year? Even before we pay for essential services and even before we pay the interest on our debt.
Did you know that American financial support of Israel amounts to over $10,000.00 per Israeli citizen?
financial supprt to Israel = $3.075B for Defense, $20M to help immigrants.

by the way, your buddy Obama raised the dollars to Israel, how does that make you feel philo?
Israels population? 7,765,700.
do the math philo, i know there are at least 7 figures to many for you....thats $396 per person.
and you dont have a clue as to who gets their money first. you are a clueless moron. go back talking to your cockroaches where you can garner the respect you deserve.
edit:
by the way - we should be VERY stingy for any money that is not used for humanitarian purposes....we know damn well that ny money spent in the ME will be used for death and destruction.

And you still don't address the questions directly.
I want us to be the ONE country the world doesnt F8ck with. Like we were on 12-7-1941. . Yeah! No body f*#ked with our bad asses on 12/7/1941
You are right Rong since it was in the Past Pearl Harbor never happened
FYI Hackfly I have a lot of family in the Middle East and my own children are of Palestinian and Polish descent I guess in your mind that makes them Stupid Terrorists.
Sorry HackFly I should have said HAS amounted to. I never claimed the 10K was an annual amount. Now do you think we still need to give them billions every year?
Oh and what is TEH math? You are so literate I am sure you can explain.

philo,
are you ever going to address your lack of understanding on the middle east and your total inability to deal with the facts?
or are you going to go back to your liberal communications manual and see what they say when you are caught lieing?
that section says to blame bush.

One of the most prophetic things ever said by a Japanese officer.
After the attack dude he said it after the attack. The fear of a Sleeping Giant didn't stop them did it.
You are the one who said I want us to be the ONE country the world doesnt F8ck with. Like we were on 12-7-1941.
Enlighten US oh wise and all seeing wingnut.

Ron as tough as we were they did attack US and the outcome was not assured in fact we suffered huge losses for quite awhile.
Ron I can see that you don't think your blind hatred of the Palestinians is Racism so I ask you why are you so Anti-Semitic?

philo,
next thing you will insult is my heritage...thats fine if it makes you feel like a man philo. i know its difficult for guys like you who were born with the brain of a cockroach.
go read up on that liberal communications manual, i think you are missing some parts that ought to help you:
"you didnt build that!"
"how to whine without sounding like a little bitch"
"i know i will never get laid but how do i sign up for free birth control - for the sissy liberal who likes to dream"
those sections ought to get you started.
