Remember there is no Hamas in the West bank. However, while the Palestinians are forbidden to have any guns, the settlers are allowed to be fully armed. I recently posted how a settler shot and killed a Palestinian man who the settlers were taking his land, while IDF soldiers were standing there watching. The settlers routinely take the positions, entire homes, lands, crops, and smash the property they don’t steal from the Palestinians. All with IDF soldiers standing there watching. The Palestinians have the same status as slaves did in the 1840s US southern states. None! Plus as this video shows, the killing of Palestinian children in the West Bank is at an all-time high as well. Now do you understand what fuels Hamas and the anger the Palestinians feel towards Jewish people and Israel? Think how you would feel if you were treated like that where you live? Hugs. Scottie
This is great. The video has such good information and facts. If hearing is not your thing, the CC is also spot on. He talks of how immigrants don’t commit as many crimes / violent crime as native citizens. He points out how a study in 18 countries showed how trickle down did not work, while the wealthy doubled their wealth during it. He points out while republicans keep you scared about harm to your kids, no kid has been killed at a drag queen brunch / story hour while due to the gun loving republican congress kids have been mowed down trying to learn how to read and kids need bulletproof backpacks. He tells how Biden democrats have brought such large economic benefits and expanded healthcare to so many and then tells how republicans voted against all of it then tried to take credit for it all. He also mentions how much the tRump kids took while working in the White House, while hunter did not work in the WH. Hugs. Scottie
This is a fucking hard short video to watch. Children found alive buried under ruble of bombed buildings. The rescuers are just normal people and they want to help so badly that they get into each other. Some try to yank the kids out, which hurts the kids, but others make them stop. There are a few that seem to know they have to move the stuff first to get the weight off the kids. These are the terrorist that Israeli is targeting with the bombs in crowded places, little kids and civilians. Israel has the most sneaky intelligence spies that tracked down German Nazis all over the world, why not use them to get Hamas members instead of killing over 20,000 civilian men, women, and so many innocent children. This is why Israel will never get rid of Hamas, the hate against them, will never win this war. They are just creating more people who hate them. I know from experience you can not have respect and love beaten into you. Israel won’t get the Palestinians to love them by abusing them, killing them, making their lives miserable, making them live in fear. Trust me that just breeds more hate and anger. Sad angry hugs.

Remember state national guards are under the control of both the state and the DOD, and have to observe military rules. Deathsantis created his own militia, totally under the singular control of the governor of Florida. It is the governor’s private army. The republican legislature gave Deathsantis a huge amount of money from the Florida taxpayers for this, and then twice added even more millions. Normally these types of state national guards are there to help with national disasters like floods and hurricanes and are trained for that work. But the governor’s private army is training with weapons, boats, and aircraft to attack people, non-white people. Right now DeathSantis makes it seem Florida is being overrun with migrants and illegal immigrants, but remember when he needed a press stunt to fly immigrants out of state they had to go to Texas to get enough to partially fill the plane. We get most of our undocumented immigrants from Cuba, but because there is a huge republican voting group of Cubans in Florida. While DeathSantis keeps pretending to be a tough man by threatening to “flatten” the Bahamas, which is a place that has never threatened or been a threat to the US, yet he ignores that Cuba once did have Soviet bases they were going to put missiles in, and now has a Chinese spy base designed to hear US military traffic. But that is what happens when you are pretending to be a tough guy instead of being one. Oh, and did I mention you have to pass the ideological screening to be a member, which means you have to be a republican maga white supremacist Christian nationalist bigot who hates the LGBTQIA and wants kids indoctrinated with Christian hate. Oh did I mention that DeathSantis insisted that they be given arrest powers so they can arrest / detain, and remove people including those the governor thinks shouldn’t be voting. Hugs. Scottie

The Orlando Sentinel reports:
A select group of volunteers expected to help Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis intercept migrants at sea gathered at a Panhandle combat training facility this fall for lessons on how to use rifles and pistols, treat “massive hemorrhages” and practice “aerial gunnery.”
A $1.2 million purchase order signed in August makes clear the DeSantis administration felt it had an “immediate and emergent need for specially trained personnel” to intercept migrants traveling by boat.
A draft plan of instruction shows the vendor, Stronghold SOF Solutions, offered to recruit, vet and train volunteers at its facility in Defuniak Springs. The contract was executed without a competitive process, made possible after DeSantis declared a state emergency in January related to illegal immigration.
Read the full article. Earlier this year some members of DeSantis’s private army quit during training, saying they didn’t sign up to be part of what they feel is a militia.
Given that handling immigration is clearly a federal issue, why has the DOJ allowed this?
You can’t charge someone with breaking a law until they have broken it. It’s more likely than not, the FBI has underground observers in the ranks. The FBI is unlikely to announce who and what they investigating.
“States have the power to create defense forces separate from the national guard, though not all of them use it. If Florida moves ahead with DeSantis’ plan to reestablish the civilian force, it would become the 23rd active state guard in the country, DeSantis’ office said in a press release, joining California, Texas and New York. These guards are little-known auxiliary forces with origins dating back to the advent of state militias in the 18th century. While states and the Department of Defense share control of the National Guard, state guards are solely in the power of a governor.
The Florida State Guard was created in 1941 during World War II as a temporary force to fill the void left behind when the Florida National Guard was deployed to assist in the US combat efforts. It was disbanded after the war ended, but the authority for a governor to establish a state defense force remained.”
Thank you. The creation of the forces are legal, but to use them to ‘combat’ migrants without coordination of DHS seems like it would not be legal.
The ACLU is currently suing Texas for passing laws allow the state to arrest and deport migrants
Well just wait and see what happens when one of these yahoo’s shoots and kills an immigrant on US soil.
The DOJ will also take flack for not intervening sooner, as you and I both feel should happen.
And yet the Cubans who scream about the dangers of Democrats and socialism clap and cheer at a state police force.
What a joke.
Are they stupid, or what? “Jews for Hitler!” “Blacks for Trump!”
Meanwhile, LEGAL migrant farm workers have said they plan to avoid working in Florida due to the hostile and dangerous environment for them there.
I’m sure the farmers and orchard owners will be thrilled.
They’ll just sell to developers for more McMansions.
Maybe they should borrow from Lydia and allow 13 year olds work 8 hours in the fields before school…
p.s.
Just don’t call them “Brownshirts” because then that would be too obvious.
What could possibly go wrong?
The stupidity here is that it’s the migrant farm workers who are picking Florida’s oranges and winter vegetables. Go right ahead and shoot yourself in the foot … morons!
DeSantis could decide to use them against Floridians that won’t obey him. Texas would rapidly follow suit.
So. No crops will be harvested or construction projects finished on schedule. Good job.
Oh they’re going to do away with child labor laws and send the little brats out to do that work. Kids don’t need education–they might get woke and start thinking for themselves and grow up to vote democrat. (sic) And what the hell? 6 year olds with machetes. What could go wrong?
Largely because the Florida Democratic Party couldn’t fight its way out of a paper bag.
What kind of training and munitions would be necessary to confront desperate, dehydrated migrants on rafts and rowboats?! Jesus Christ…
Hosing the darker people with assault rifles, especially the kids. You know that’s the plan.
I hope he stops every speed boat he can find and ruin the entire tourist industry
DeSantis arming his brownshirts.
How tf will they know who to target? Someone who looks like me? We went through all this in Arizona ffs with Sheriff Joe.
I think their message is if you are born brown, you just have to expect this. I’m sick of it.
Brown and Black people in boats. Any boats. Even if they’re a resident and own it.
Anyone they feel isn’t white enough.
The SA FG wants you!
Wow this short animated video shows how silly / and abusive the Fundamentalist version of the Christian God is! Hugs Scottie.
This report is on the lies and atrocious propaganda of Israel and it’s supporters. Israeli authorities themselves have lowered the number of killed by Hamas to 1,000. The lies about all the babies killed was debunked as only one baby was killed by Hamas and the burned babies and others turned out to have been by Isra
