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.

Dope:"Pro-Palestinian rallies aren't the left". LOL@him. Some folks just have to project their failings on others 24/7. In this case, it's him whining about liars.

They aren't representative of the left's views in a scenario where someone talks right vs left. The far left is usually splintered into different groups that can coalesce around a theme, but most of the time are just out there and not cooperating with anything. As you can see below the difference between the left and right is 8% on this issue. This is why you sometimes come across as waaay out in left field ( yes, you are lefties in this sense.) :)

<snip>In that same vein, Americans overwhelmingly (71 percent) believe that in terms of U.S. policy towards the Middle East, it is either “very important” (42 percent) or “somewhat important” (29 percent) to protect Israel. This belief is impressively bipartisan: 80 percent of Republicans and 72 percent of Democrats feel protecting Israel is an important aspect of American policy.

What’s more, Americans feel that supporting Israel is more important than other geopolitical priorities. Roughly three-quarters (74 percent) of Americans say it is important that the U.S. fund military aid to Israel, the highest of any issue, beating border funding and foreign humanitarian aid (72 percent each), military aid for Ukraine (61 percent) and economic/military aid for Taiwan (52 percent), per CNBC polling<snip>
