this is not pickleball. it is war. i mean, two sides with equal merit. i know that the media would prefer brave revolutionaries versus evil colonizers, but remember, it was barack obama referred to isis as the j.b. team. enough with the cease-fire talked. we had a cease-fire. it was on october 6th. can't break a cease-fire, waste- waged war, then call a cease-fire. we have decided, so it's not your choice anymore, protesters. jewish protesters calling for a cease-fire is like the typical leftist pleading not to arrest their mugger, because he had a bad childhood. it's not going to work. you don't have a say over the justice that will be enacted. he will not be affected by it. how did the media fall for this hospital thing? 450 rockets in the past ten days that have fallen short. and they trust them, the people who launched the most discussed and repulsive terrorist act in recent history, cnn and "the new york times"? they ran with israel because the palestine health ministry said so? this is no small error. this isn't a mistake, questioning the validity

like it's pickleball. how diplomatic, i guess it's an improvement over calling isis the jv squad.lways the dems. now it's said foreign policy is picking among the least bad of your choices and with zombie joe in charge there's more bad choices than the taco bell dollar menu. but time for some credit where it's due because you know who actually moved things forward in that department? that's right, the great satan donald trump. and over there, you know, that's a compliment. who was the first to actually meet with the little rocket man in north korea? before that, who had we sent? dennis rodman? [laughter] >> greg: you know, while the left was screaming that trump just had to be a russian agent, guess what, we had no russian wares and while they were shouting his son-in-law jared kushner had no experience in foreign policy, it was trump and kushner that brought in the abraham accords which normalized relations between israel and some of its arab neighbors. of course normal is now a relative term. like woman. the left couldn't believe it. donald trump, a diplomat? what would the un s
