    “Statesian”? “Zionist entity”? You talk like Jordan Peterson.

    You know there are much simpler, more descriptive words for these, yet you choose these 5 dollar words to sound more academic and thus more respectable. Academia is not about obfuscating ideas and obscuring reasoning.

      If you think everyday words are $5, get a weekly vocabulary lesson for free, online. It’s not up to us to dumb ourselves down all the time, drag yourself UP, and get the needed hand.

      I didn’t realize Jordan Peterson was an anti imperialist. I’m not an academic, I chose my words deliberately to convey my feelings about the subjects.

          Do you think “Statesian” is a big, confusing word? I don’t acknowledge “America” or “Israel” as legitimate states.

            while i think it was sold as the middle east pearl harbor or midway strategically, if you look at the scale of just what we know about the breadth of the child pedophilia ring operating with imperalist backing and then capturing it, i would still say that Israel is doing what they had planned back in the 90s. I would not be surprised if Israel helped 9/11 at this point. It wouldnt be the first time they killed Americans with the intent of drawing us into their war ala USS Liberty. But if you were to look at this, it lines up fairly nicely with the last several decades https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Clean_Break:_A_New_Strategy_for_Securing_the_Realm
