From Supermarket News, a supermarket industry trade magazine:

Grocery retailers feel impact as nationwide protests escalate
Chains of all sizes cite store closings, vandalism and looting

Food retailers of all stripes and in all geographies — ranging from Target and Walmart to Cub Foods and Coborn’s to Stop & Shop and ShopRite — have been affected, whether by forced closings and/or damaged stores or looting, vandalism and curtailed hours.

On its website, Target now lists six locations closed until further notice, including the Lake Street store plus its uptown Minneapolis; Broadway Oakland, Calif.; Buckhead South Atlanta, Ga.; South Loop Chicago; and Washington Square W Philadelphia stores.

In Philadelphia, stores have reported millions of dollars in damage from looting.

So I am absolutely sure that BLM activists protesting and demanding grocery stores move into the same neighborhoods that just saw weeks of looting and property damage are going to do just that.

I know that a lot of companies are going woke and going broke, but I can’t imagine anyone of them would actually invest in building and stocking a store that they could all but guarantee will be looted and burned down after it was opened.

I saw this headline in Haaretz:

Biden Says Trump Is ‘Dangerous’ to Israel – and Bad for American Jews

It is at this point that I must remind everyone that Trump managed to negotiate peace deals between Israel and the UAE, and Israel and Bahrain.

There is speculation that a peace deal between Israel and Saudi Arabia is next.

Peace is good.  So why does Biden say Trump is dangerous to Israel?

Former Vice President Joe Biden said on Thursday in a briefing to supporters in the Jewish community that his rival in the upcoming U.S. election, President Donald Trump, has “put Israel in danger” by withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal, and has also endangered American Jews by embracing far-right conspiracy theories.

Biden emphasized his support for Israel and for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. That solution, he told the crowd, is “the only way to ensure Israel’s long-term security while sustaining its Jewish and democratic identity. It’s also the only way to ensure Palestinians have a state of their own.”

In addition to opposing annexation, Biden said he would renew diplomatic contacts with the Palestinians, which have been completely cut off since late 2017. “I will reengage the Palestinians,” he said, including the restoration of civilian aid. The Trump administration has cut almost all forms of U.S. aid to the Palestinians, despite requests from Israeli officials to continue that aid, which Israel sees as helpful to maintaining stability in the Palestinian arena.

Ah yes, the “we must appease the Palestinians” road to peace that has failed continuously since 1967.

That has become an article of faith among the Left.

It’s bullshit.

Here is something most people don’t know and the Left refuses to admit:

The rest of the Arab world fucking hates the Palestinians.  They see the truth, which is that the Palestinians are the most corrupt group of assholes in the Middle East.  Every time there has been an attempt at brokering peace between Israel and the Palestinians, the Palestinians squander it and resume the terrorists attacks.

There is too much corruption to change this.  The Palestinians are to Iran as Antifa is to the Democrat party.  They are the violent extremists funded at arm’s length.  Iran sends money and weapons to attack Israel by proxy through Hamas and the PA.

The corrupt UN has no reason to fix this as it has too many people lining their pockets from the UNWRA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East).

So the Palestinians are taught through their schools and state-run media nothing but Jew-hatred and terrorism so that they can continue their attacks on Israel, making peace impossible, so that the leaders in the PA and UN can siphon aid money into their bank accounts and the Iranians can engage in their ideologically motivated attacks on Israel without a formal declaration of war.

Now, let’s throw a few more facts into the mix.

The Western World is going green.  We all want more fuel efficiency.  The US is also for the first time in a long time, self-sufficient on energy.  This has weakened the Arab States’ economies, they know a future entirely dependent on oil profits is not stable.

In addition, Iran is brokering trade and military deals with China.  Because evil is attracted to evil.

The idea of a Shia dominated Middle East, fueled by as Iran/China partnership scares the shit out of the Sunni Arab world.

Side note: this is just another reason for the US to work against China, we don’t need China to build a more militant Iran.

So, Arab states ignoring the Palestinian menace and forging peace deals with Israel, wanting to engage in trade of technology and economic development to diversify their economies beyond oil, and become equals in the developed world is the way of the future.

This is what Biden considered dangerous.  He wants to go back to the days of demanding Israel give up land to the perpetually vindictive Palestinians in exchange for peace deals that last as long as Democrat signed treaties with the Indians.

The only Middle East policy he understands is “it’s always the fault of the Jews” which is an inherently anti-Semitic position, which is why the Obama administration advanced it for years.

That, and he is probably figured out (or been told) that his family can make bank off China working with Iran, even if that means an Iran armed with nuclear-capable hypersonic missiles.

Trump is the first President in history to try a Middle East policy that has at its center something other than appeasing the Palestinians, and it’s worked.

We may yet have peace in our time because of Trump and Biden wants to undo that.

Trump isn’t the danger to Israel, Biden is, by holding on to a policy idea that hasn’t worked in 53 years motivated by anti-Semitism.

News

It out sensitivity for yesterday, I saved posting this for today.

For years, the Left has shit on great American holidays like Independence Day and Thanksgiving, telling us how the founding of America wasn’t great and America has done more harm than good.  Then they started to shit on more somber holidays like Veterans Day and Memorial Day.

This year was the year that they finally let their TDS overtake any last shred of decency they had and decided to shit on 9/11 because of Trump.

Trump has allowed more than sixty-six 9/11's. The right- wing that cannot feel fury but instead cheers a president that allowed this to happen really has left the realm of human decency. The level of intellectual dishonesty and character failure blows my mind.

Ever wonder why the 125,000 lives Donald Trump’s selfishness & recklessness snuffed out this year don’t register the way the 3,000 lives bin Laden’s airline hijackers took on 9/11 do?

Slow v fast?

Domestic v foreign?

Anonymous v identified?

My view: Trump = bin Laden x 42.

From @politico Playbook:

CONSIDER THIS: The United States has lost 64 times more people to Covid-19 so far this year than we did in the 9/11 attacks. How will Americans mourn those losses, and how will it change our politics?

64 times more people…

— Karen Travers (@karentravers) September 11, 2020

So it's 9/11. Hard to remember now how large the terrorist attack loomed in our national psyche; after all, in death toll Covid-19 is already the equivalent of 60 9/11s. But a few thoughts and recollections 1/

— Paul Krugman (@paulkrugman) September 11, 2020

the pandemic is now EVERY WEEK taking twice as many American lives as were lost on 9/11

— John Harwood (@JohnJHarwood) September 11, 2020

If you are the kind of person that thinks it is a brilliant political point to compare the President of the United States to the terrorist Osama Bin Laden by comparing the death tolls of an airborne pandemic (handled different in different states because of our federalist system, with many different local outcomes) with the deliberate, unprecedented, sneak attack, mass-murder of American civilians, you are garbage, utter garbage, with a soul full of shit.  Everything you say the rest of your life should be disregarded, and you should die in destitution and anonymity, alone, unloved, and unmourned, shunned by decent society.

Yimakh shemo ve zikhro.  May your name and memory be obliterated.

You disgusting pieces of shit.

“Ruptly is live from Paris on Saturday, September 12, as the ‘Yellow Vests’ resume their campaign against planned pension reforms by marching through the streets of the French capital. The protest is taking place after France noted an increase in the number of coronavirus infections across the country. It also comes after the mandatory use of face masks in certain busier areas of Paris was established in August. The French government has limited the maximum number of participants to 5,000 for larger gatherings.”

And the “Mostly Peaceful” boys of the local Antifa clan were present.  As you can imagine, they were allowed to do as they pleased, including brutally assaulting a older gentleman who tried to stop one of them from busting a car.  Rather than the mob beating the shit out of the asshole, he was gently whisked away while the old mas was left laying injured on the ground surrounded by a couple dozen assholes recording video with their phones.

The world needs more Kyle.

PS: Putin TV has very good cameramen all over.

Being yesterday the day it was, I decided to move the funnies to today.

I am guessing you all know very well what that assortment of pipes, valves and meters are.

From Andy Ngo.

Here is the alleged “mostly peaceful” arsonist: Jett Thomas.

A witness to the “mostly peaceful” attempt at mass killing describes what she saw:

The biggest mass killings/murders in the US (not counting 9/11) have been mostly by arson.  There is a reason why the laws of so many states allows the private citizen to use deadly force to stop an arsonist.

Mr. Thomas is charged with Arson, a Class A felony Class that if convicted, results in up to 20 years in prison and $375,000 fines.

No idea if bail will be posted for this idiot. I would not be surprised if it happens.
