Wrong on every count. Foreign countries invaded Vietnam, and the citizens, north and south, were fighting to evict them from their land and regain their sovereignty over their homeland. Likewise, Palestinians feel their homeland was stolen and want it back. You can argue all day about who is right, but that is the problem in a nutshell.
I was among the”leftist monsters” that protested the war in Vietnam, and was accused of being a communist and so forth. And history has proven me correct. Yet I had no trouble finding a job.
OK. Then you are against taxpayer money going to fund Israel’s war. My taxes went to invade Iraq against my will, and I don’t remember you or any right wingers objecting.
Yes, you can show a much lower average of pay if you include everyone with a title of CEO. That would include the CEO of Bob’s corner candy store. That title sounds impressive and is adopted by most that can claim it.
If some group forced people off their land because of the color of their skin, that would be racism. It’s no different for a religion. Crips / Bloods, etc. are criminal gangs. They do not force people in the areas they control to adhere to a specific set of beliefs on threat of punishment, they force them to stay silent and pay tribute on demand. They also do not drive non-gang members out of their territory, they leave them there and leech off of them. Only religion demands you accept a core set of beliefs or face expulsion or death. No matter how passive you are, the mere fact that you think differently is enough to qualify you as a threat.
I got a response. I didn’t get an answer. Protestant / Catholics fighting over land, Jews / Muslims fighting over land, Sunni / Shiites fighting over land.

After his speech warning us about the military industrial complex, most modern republicans would call for an impeachment.
