Tucker Carlson is really waking up America to this issue, it is kind of insane to see the transition. |

Maybe lol My cousin pays. She is pretty right wing so not sure if she believes Tucker on this issue. I try not to discuss politics with her because she is so extreme right wing. I do agree with Tucker on this issue Too many people think criticism of Israel is antisemitic It's not Far from it I'm against Israel and my best friend is Jewish |

I am not here to support Tucker, I watch him for free on YT. But, he is a top thought leader for the right, and he is going hard against Israel. My only point was, right wing people, even hardcore right wing, are starting to wake up to what Israel is doing to everyone. |

Liberty and honored the survivors in real time. Massie seems to imply Israel targeted this ship in purpose and then worked with the U.S. to cover it up. I am not sure if I agree with this or not, but it is a very important event to remember nonetheless. https://www.military.com/massie-controversial-uss-liberty-naval-attack-renewed-attention-congress https://fox56.com/news/local/gallery/survivors-of-uss-liberty-attack-call-on-congress-for-official-investigation?photo=1 https://ussliberty.org/ (The survivor's website to raise money and attention for an investigation into Israel's actions in 1967.) |

| SOOPOO Member since: Feb 19, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 5908 | Iran just bombed Israel ‘in retaliation for Israel bombing Hezbollah in Lebanon’. And there are some who think Iran is not the provocateur when Hezbollah lobs bombs into Israel. So as is usually the case, none of Iran’s bombs did any damage, while Israel took out a few military instillations in retaliation. Iran is basically incompetent. They are still able to launch bomb laden skiffs from their own land into their own waters… |

If they are that incompetent, why isn't the Strait open? |

The strait is closed due to the fat oaf's incompetence and ineffectiveness as a wartime leader. |

To be fair, if Israel was managing the operations, the strait would probably be open. But, we are much more cautious. Rumours are Trump is terrified of American casualties. Trump is terrified of even slight things going wrong, let alone the potential of a whole ship going down... |

Israel would do anything to open the straight if that was their objective. I would not even rule out nukes if necessary. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |
