The Trump administration has accomplished a lot in negotiating a ceasefire and getting all of the living hostages returned. That was the easy part. Getting the people of the region to decide that living in peace with their neighbors, and trying to achieve prosperity for all, is better than killing them -- That's the hard part.
Any objective person would agree with me that Donald J. Trump is one of our greatest Presidents.
I sent a note to the Governor of Nebraska. I asked him to create an award: In the Deed, the Glory. The award would go to someone who did something great, but was ignored.
The words are inscribed on Memorial Stadium in Lincoln and are known to all Nebraskans.

It isn’t so strange once you accept the fact that Democrats are nothing more than corrupt morons.
Hopefully this will stop the Israeli Genocide in Gaza. At last count over 50,000 Palestinians have been murdered by the war criminals running Israel. And one can hope for a miracle, and maybe Israel will keep the agreement. But history says..no.
Anyway, one can also hope Trump goes on and makes peace in a much bigger and more important conflict - Ukraine/Russia. A more useless conflict has never exists. Slav brothers killing each other over where the border should be. Russia has almost gotten all of Donetsk and Lugansk (both misspelled) and once it gets the last major cities, they'll be no reason for Ukraine to fight. They've lost them and they're not getting them back - unless the Russians lose WW III.
“Hopefully this will stop the Israeli Genocide in Gaza.” 1. You will be happy to know that the citizens of Gaza are now conducting their own “genocide” as rival gangs of thugs turn on each other. 2. Why would you post this? This is the first day of a peace process and it doesn’t seem you want that. No moment of conciliatory congratulations to all sides.
The Ds will have to go to extraordinary lengths, even for them, to make peace in the Middle East be a bad thing. But, nevertheless, they will try it because….Trump.
As for Russia/Ukraine, Putin fucked up. He should have taken Trump up on starting a process to peace. The war is now a drone war. And Ukrainians are much more innovative. For 2 reasons: 1. When Putin invaded, there was a mass exodus of young people in the computer fields. 2. The free market is going to reward the best drone makers in Ukraine. Russia has no such reward system.
Its interesting how zionists and leftists always need to personalize everything. "Why am I bringing this up?". Why not just discuss Israel's actions.
But to answer the question. Maybe because I care about human beings and the world. Not to mention my Government providing bombs to Israel for Genocide in Gaza. And the USA Government, despite its constant moralizing, refusing to break a hunger blockade. Or deny aid to Bibi Netenyahu - who has a warrant out for being a war criminal.
And frankly, given Israel's actions over the last 50 years, I have no confidence they'll keep a ceasefire. Or stop ethnically cleansing Arabs from the West Bank. Or stop bombing Lebanon or Syria. Or trying to get us into a war against Iran.
I should have been more clear. The mass exodus of folks in the computer fields was from Russia. For a month, maybe 2, the Russian borders were open. These young people left then. I used to follow several of them on YouTube. They were uniformly against the invasion. They were resentful too. Because they knew they could make more money outside of Russia. But they stayed out of a sense of patriotism. That ended with the invasion. In fact none of the young people were for the invasion.

Or trying to get us into a war against Iran.” Yet all the Arab nations support this. And the whole world with the exception of a handful of nations supported the American and Israeli actions in Iran. But you go ahead and agitate for war.
Everyone wants this to work out. Given history, it's naive to have any hope or expectations of success. That said, Trump did a great job getting the current cycle of murder to slow down to the normal background noise of the ever present Holy War.
There are “No Kings” events occurring this Saturday. What poor timing! Of course, they could rename the events to “No Peacemakers” if they care to be more accurate wrt their hate for Trump.
“Maybe because I care about human beings and the world.” No, you don’t. Because in the final analysis, the people who are right and the people who are wrong have to learn to live with each other.
I did something that I haven’t done since Election Night snd flipped over to MSNBC and CNN to see what their coverage looked like. The faces of the taking heads were grim, unlike the smiles on Fox News. The coverage was actually fairly straightforward, although it would be hard to spin against the ceasefire that their views have been marching in the streets for. Their analysts pointed out that this has been the easy part, and that getting Hamas to live up to the Trump peace plan will be extremely difficult. Still, it must have been jarring for their viewers to watch Literally Hitler doing his best to bring peace to the Middle East. Worst Fascist Ever!
Trump said nice things about almost evrybody, suggested Herzog should pardon Bibi. I thought for sure he was going to forgive the Jews for killing Christ, he was on such a roll. CC, JSM
He also name checked the Abraham Accords and made sure to call them the Avraham Accords too. Wish he or his writers had also dropped the Ibrahim version in there too. Might have gotten some applause from the Arab MK’s. CC, JSM
“Jerusalem was also the favorite place of that other great American, Jesus Christ. Not everybody in Jerusalem liked him, though. That sometimes happens to great leaders, you know. But hey, someone had to kill him. It was part of the plan. And it wasn’t just you guys - it was also the Romans. You know, today is Columbus Day. Great Italian American holiday. The Italians felt so bad about killing Jesus, they moved the headquarters of the church to Rome, you know. So we forgave them a long time ago. And so, today, I am officially signing an Executive Order forgiving the Jews for killing Jesus. Come on down, Steve Miller. Lemme sign that thing. Don’t worry, you’re forgiven too. All part of the plan. Part of the plan.” CC, JSM
And the USA Government, despite its constant moralizing, refusing to break a hunger blockade.
The Gazans I saw on TV yesterday looked uniformly well fed.
Egypt shares a border with Gaza and could easily provide food relief from a tiny fraction of the billions of dollars we hand out to them every year. But the border fence on their side is taller and stronger and more tightly locked than on the Israeli side. Like all Muslim countries, they talk a good game about Palestine, but in private they loathe them as ignorant, violent troublemakers, and would not accept a single one of them as a refugee.
If you're not willing for me to dismiss you as merely a Jew-hater, show me a comment you've made about Egypt's failure to open the border and feed their "starving" co-religionists....
The death had to be part of the plan, there is no fulfillment of the covenant without it so the romans and the sadduccees and pharisees played their part

As a kid, we frequently prayed at Mass for peace in the Middle East. I never thought it would happen. Then came Trump. He accomplished a miracle.
Opposition?… come on down!

I hope they don't kill our president over there.
Not everybody wants peace. Pray for real.

RCOCEAN: That word, genocide, doesn’t mean what you think it means.
Once again the CNN and MSNBC talkers are busy pumping out propaganda about Trump being a tricky failure who is not as smart as they are.
“Hopefully this will stop the Israeli Genocide in Gaza.”

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

Oh, the "why" is patently obvious.
A somewhat warmer reception than he got in the UN. The people in the ivory towers don’t get this guy at all. The people on the ground get it.

Mosby is on a roll. That’s why I read the comments.

The prophets were always treated badly jesus preached on from the beginning about his final state and yet the apostles dodnt understand
As abraham is the precursor to all three religions
The death had to be part of the plan, there is no fulfillment of the covenant without it so the romans and the sadduccees and pharisees played their part
refusing to break a hunger blockade.

Hamas hae control of food corridor
