The American (USA) 2016 presidential elections thread?

Ah yes. "If she wasn't my daughter I'd be dating her".

Also enjoyed the French trolling where they published a clip of the head of the IMF or World Bank and the PMs of Britain and France having a serious discussion when Ivanka wandered over and butted in.

Which kicked off the new memes doing the rounds where Ivanka is included in an existing historical photo as with Nixon, Elvis, Martin Luther King Jr, JFK etc etc.

Sounds hilarious. I'm sure all the far right leaning people here at KB would be cool with Jacinda giving her partner Clark the Foreign trade portfolio, he does a bit of fishing n that, so he has all the qualifications he needs right?

Bolton and Netanyahu are Upset Trump Didn't Start a War. - - MIGA? -



Christian Zionists? -- They are like turkeys demanding thanksgiving! -

Following the Mrs Kushner's unwanted intrusion into a serious discussion at the G20 summit, the hashtag #unwantedIvanka took off. There are now hundreds of these but they aren't all in formats I can copy easily. Herewith a small sample.

I see that the Holocaust Museum is saying you can't use the term "concentration camp" for the immigrants on the southern border. They're claiming it as an exclusively jewish victim term....In reply a mass of Holocaust scholars are saying basically, bullshit, call it like it is.

If it is generally agreed that you can't use that name for holding camps for people you don't want - unlikely I'd think - the aussies will be relieved as they are currently operating several which match the description of concentration camps...

'Concentration camps' were around for many years before the Second World War. (Well before the First World War even).

But no surprises here that Jews want to claim exclusive rights to the use of the name.

The Boer war for openers?

There was shock when AOC first used the term and the US right went after her hard. Since that though, some of the few surviving holocaust survivors and other Jewish organisations have backed her use of the term.

So too Japanese Americans who were interned in WW2 have come out in support. In fact one of those former Japanese camps is now being used to hold immigrants.

At US$770 per head per day it's a nice little earner.

To understand the Jewish reaction one should familiarise with the content of the "Babylonian Talmud" Judaism's holiest book! -

I don't understand the "Jewish reaction" reference.

The Holocaust Museum people, and some others, reacted negatively to a statement by AOC referring to concentration camps. The opposing view is being expressed by 500 predominantly Jewish academics - and counting. Clearly there is not a single view, Jewish or otherwise?

Yes there is - it is the claiming of certain words and phrases that can only be used to describe "Jewish holocaust events" - view it again. - I.E.

[Quote]On June 17, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat of New York, posted an Instagram live video discussing the detention camps along the southern US border as ?concentration camps? in which she used the phrase ?Never Again.? This drew sharp criticism the following day from Representative Liz Cheney, Republican of Wyoming, and others for allegedly misappropriating a slogan associated with the Holocaust. After several days of heated media and political debate, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum released a statement on June 24 condemning the use of Holocaust analogies. We received the following open letter addressed to the director of the museum, Sara J. Bloomfield, delivered by the signatories on July 1.[Unquote]

Nothing racist at all in my post their Talmud explains why Jews think or react that way - fact. (Read their Talmud.) (At least I read your post properly)

I disagree, you seem to be arguing with things I didn't say. My point was that there is no single Jewish view - and there isn't.

The Holocaust Memorial Museum people had their say, but nearly 700 mostly Jewish scholars have expressed a different view. For all I know the Holocaust Museum people may have now amended their position, but until they do there is clearly no single Jewish position.

Well, it appears that I didn't read your post properly after all - re the use of the word "single". I.E. "not a single word"? - got your meaning now!
