I tried out the game where you shoot IDF in the face. It's not good but it is fun. Heres a terrible but funny enough run. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duJ3tF6PajU

x-posting to the IP thread, since it concerns snake handlers' biblical relationship to Israel and Iran, It's funny that evangelicals can see why Orange Man Bad is good, but liberals can't. To evangelicals, Donald Trump is like Cyrus the Great. God uses an unlikely figure to accomplish divine purposes. They're drawing on the Book of Isaiah, where Cyrus is referred to as the Lord’s “shepherd” and “his anointed,” whom God has taken by the right hand to subdue nations before him (Isaiah 44:28, 45:1). Cyrus, a Persian king, is a vessel through which God’s will is enacted, specifically in enabling the return of the Jews from exile and the rebuilding of the Jerusalem Temple. Obviously this last part is worrisome for reasons discussed in the I/P thread. Trump’s presidency was seen in a similar light. Despite his lol "personal flaws" at odds with evangelical values (not being able to even throw them a bone by naming his favourite passage of the bible), his political decisions, like moving the embassy, figure into snake handler biblical prophecies and Calvinist belief in predestination. They think this is why an unrighteous man and New York socialite was miraculously guided to support for Israel, his appointment of conservative judges, his of talk about religious freedom (which is still code for de facto segregated schools). This is because, like our friends the liberals, they don't really understand politics as superstructure, where Trump chose messages and policies to elicit this reaction. Instead, this is God working through Trump. Even though he isn't opposed to abortion, he set the groundwork for where we are now, and they love it. These unlikely words and actions are all seen as the kind of leadership that accomplishes God’s will, like Cyrus did by issuing the decree that led to the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem. Trump's personal and public discrepancies, if anything, enhance their belief in his instrumental role in divine strategy. God uses flawed individuals to fulfill divine purposes, the more flawed, the more great is our God. Okay, so, Persian king, right? Belshazzar, according to the narrative in the Book of Daniel, was the last king of Babylon who presided over the final days of his empire. His rule ended dramatically with the sudden invasion by - guess who? - Cyrus the Great of Persia, an event foretold by the mysterious writing on the wall during Belshazzar's impious feast. This writing, "Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin," decoded by Daniel, prophesied the imminent downfall of Belshazzar’s reign, signaling that his kingdom was judged, found wanting, and would be divided between the Medes and Persians. We can "predict" how Trump plays a part in future events, not out of snake handling, but because we understand Orange Man Bad as part of a system, and Biden as part of its collapse, the "writing on the wall". Think about it this way, how often do we talk about how Biden has been?: "Mene" (numbered): Pandemic casualties, economic distress, and housing costs "Tekel" (weighed): Biden's presidency in terms of how effectively it addresses core systemic issues such as economic inequality, healthcare, racial justice, and climate change (not at all). "Peres/Upharsin" (divided/found wanting): American society was already unravelling, which we can understand as a process beginning in the 1960's, but culturally, it's never been more visible. That movie Civil War is dog brained, but Jan 6 scared the bejesus out of liberals who think it came out of nowhere. We saw "the writing on the wall" as the base drives superstructure. Remember that Daniel tells Belshazzar that his kingdom will be divided and given to the Medes and Persians. Biden has just blundered into a conflict with the Persians, where Iran very well might close the Strait of Hormuz, impacting global oil flows and economic stability. Other fronts of the American empire are also pressed by Biden bumbling around like Mr Magoo. You can decide who the best fit for the Medes is, Russia or China. TRPF suggests that capitalist systems inherently face declining profitability over time, leading to crises unless counteracted by significant measures (e.g., technological innovation, market expansion). Biden’s policies are prophetic in the sense that they accelerate these systemic crises. Just like Belshazzar's rule ended with the external intervention of the Persians, Biden's administration is in even deeper trouble as Israel keeps trying to widen the war. The externality of the Medes, Ukraine could collapse, could also be a catalyst for these deep, unresolved, crises to bring about ruin. In either case, Trump's return is essentially written on the wall, ultimately a good thing in bringing about the collapse of this mess, or at least hilariously disruptive to it. To liberals, this is as arcane and ridiculous as biblical prophesy. They don't understand how we could see a bigger picture, how Trump fits into a kind of teleology. Liberals have no frame of reference for him. The evangelicals, God bless them, at least have a worldview that has been able to explain why Orange Man Bad is disruptive to the existing system, and to a degree, why these disruptions, and it seems his election, are an inevitability.

He acted in good faith thinking his wide popular support, authentic personality, gravitas, and the fact he'd delivered historic gains in seats for Labor between 2015 and 2019 would make people have some perspective on the matter.

gradenko_2000 posted:
"Galician Jews or Galitzianers (Yiddish: גאַליציאַנער, romanized: Galitsianer) are members of the subgroup of Ashkenazi Jews originating and developed in the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria and Bukovina from contemporary western Ukraine (Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, and Ternopil Oblasts) and from south-eastern Poland (Subcarpathian and Lesser Poland). Galicia proper, which was inhabited by Ruthenians, Poles and Jews, became a royal province within Austria-Hungary after the Partitions of Poland in the late 18th century. Galician Jews primarily spoke Yiddish." Which, appropriately enough, went on to produce, "Pinhas Lavon an Israeli politician, minister and labor leader, best known for the Lavon Affair." The Lavon affair was a failed Israeli covert operation, codenamed Operation Susannah, conducted in Egypt in the summer of 1954. As part of a false flag operation, a group of Egyptian Jews were recruited by Israeli military intelligence to plant bombs inside Egyptian-, American-, and British-owned civilian targets: cinemas, libraries, and American educational centers. The bombs were timed to detonate several hours after closing time. The attacks were to be blamed on the Muslim Brotherhood, Egyptian communists, "unspecified malcontents", or "local nationalists" with the aim of creating a climate of sufficient violence and instability to induce the British government to retain its occupying troops in Egypt's Suez Canal zone. Big Israel and Little Israel have cultural roots in the same loving province of Austria-Hungary, which, as a deliberately managed multicultural province in a multiethnic state, contained all of these nationalist energies. The early conferences of the Zionist movement and a lot of the leadership originated in Galicia. This is happening side by side with the bumpkin nationalism that would produce Bandera. The pogroms that were the "national awakening" of the Ukrainians, understandably enough, fuelled the beliefs of the Zionist project. They are so deeply related, as in Zionist groups and Ukrainian nationalist groups were both setting up camps and talking about how much they hated the Poles, separately, throughout the interwar years. There's a huge confluence there, and the actions of Israel would be approximately what you'd expect from Bandera and his guys in a successor state. If Ukraine had the means, they'd be acting the same way. The reason Donetsk doesn't look like Gaza was because Russia was there. It's too bad Bram Stoker chose Transylvania, which was relatively tranquil, because if Dracula had been set in neighbouring Galicia, I feel like the region would have the reputation it deserves.
