The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" 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.

I won't speak for him. He has said that the situation is intractable, and his relatives there don't want a two-state deal because they fear state-supported terrorism on their border. I can't say that they're wrong, either …

Jeez, do you guys hear yourselves?!? It’s a fucking genocide and you’re offering a shoulder shrug and an “oh well” at best, and a “well my family says they deserve it” at worst?!? The grotesque historical irony is obvious.

If this is Albabys stance (you don’t want to put words in his mouth) then he stands as a supporter of the ongoing Palestinian genocide. The shrug, “it’s intractable”, stance is no different than the passivity and denial of Americans who shrugged at the Nazis Jewish policy in the thirties.
