The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

It's now pretty much a core position of the electorate to oppose Palestinian sovereignty, and the new government (if there is a change) will certainly reflect that.

Then the Israelis guarantee their future in a perpetual slaughterhouse. Looking at the original partition map from 1948, it's apparent how much of Israel, even within the pre-1967 borders, were ethnically cleansed of Pals. By self-defining Israel as a "Jewish state", they lock the Pals out of a meaningful role, by definition. I read the arguments years ago: "the Pals have a higher birth rate, so they must be repressed, or they would take over Israel, and it would not be a 'Jewish state' anymore". We saw the same scenario in South Africa: the whites repressing the black majority, in the name of what the whites regarded as civilization. If I had a magical wand, I would wave it and make all religion disappear, because of all the strife it causes.
