(211 posts)1. Bibi finally found a president stupid enough to attack Iran.
And now we will all pay for this. Im so tired as all of us. Im exhausted of Israel shit and the lawmakers in D.C. who in their minds feel that we have some religious obligation to Israel.
The disconnect of the evangelical crowd in thinking this will bring the return of Jesus.If their messiah was an actual person he was definitely not white and yet they approve of mass deportations of people of color.
Im very scared over what this cluster will bring down on us.
