House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Monday said President Trump has launched an all-out war in the Middle East after a series of strikes on Iran over the weekend.
Jeffries and other Democrats have remained unsupportive of the attacks, questioning the military strategy in the region given past tensions and alleging Trumps actions are illegal as Congress has not granted permission for the U.S. to go to war with Iran.
During an appearance on CNNs News Central, Kate Bolduan asked Jeffries if he would support bombings in Iran if they were limited to striking the countrys missiles, missile launchers, and its missile manufacturing capability.
Well, that remains to be seen whether its to be limited or not. I dont even understand the justification for what is taking place, Jeffries responded. What we do know is were seeing the beginning of an all-out war in the Middle East at the same period of time where Donald Trump and his administration, and Republicans, have cut more than a trillion dollars from Medicaid, he added.

It appears trhat zionism was a mistake.
But jews were living among people who wanted to kill them.
Zionism as a response to christians killing them.
Jews moved to Palestine. And, livbing among people who hated them.
The Jews who moved to Palestine, knews how to kill.
It was, and remains, kill or be killed.
The classical Romans and Greeks hated Jews as well.
It seems the Jews should have converted to Christianity at the time of St Paul.

How about we try this idea:
Don't kill Jews because they are Jews.
I know historically that has been too much to ask, but maybe we should try something new?

Just think President Biden ended a war with the US and Afghanistan, and here we go again with this fucking A** H**** 34 count felon who is a thug criminal because he couldn't keep his mushroom under wraps with his guy pal Epstein.
