So Israel has stepped up its genocide in Gaza, armed and funded by the US.
The US has also increased its bombing of Yemen, the only country taking active steps to discourage the genocide.
So that's where we are in the election cycle. The lesser of two evils is complicit in genocide.

So, you're anti-Israel.
I'm anti-Hamas.
I don't like many Israeli policies, either.
But, keep this crap in ONE thread, please.

I believe that America should stop selling arms to both Israel and Saudi Arabia, both complicit in the war crimes you mention, unless and until they stop. I don't want my taxes funding any atrocities.

I honestly didn't know that, and I've seen quite a few videos over the years. But I believe you if you say it, because you're clearly not making up excuses.
I take it I have no credibility with you here, at least on matters of politics.

I already posted the legal decision in which the judge says that she deals in entertainment, not to be believed.
She certainly states things as if they were fact. You can read the statements she made for which she was sued.
The judge did not say she is not to be believed.
Are their any news commentors with their own opinion shows who do not state things as if they are fact?
The main statement she made for which she was sued was (IIRC) that an OAN staff member also writes for a Russian newspaper. That was factually correct. The bloviating surrounding that statement was opinion, and the judge ruled, protected speech.

You are temperate in your approach to things. I respect that.
You are capable of having conversations with people you disagree with, and don't go immediately for insults or bullying, like so many people.
As to whether we should believe each other, I suppose (as in most cases) we should go case by case. I have been wrong before and if you think I am wrong again I have no problem with you pointing that out. Respectful dialogue is how we progress.
