Rami Abdou, an economic analyst, estimated that people in the Gaza Strip spent $130 million in less than two days—a massive amount for such a destitute region.

And get this: AK-47 prices have plummeted to just about $550—word is the market in the Gaza Strip is absolutely flooded.

Well, now that we’re finally cutting off the handouts, maybe they'll actually learn how to spend their hard-earned cash more sensibly. 😍

Provided Mubarak lets them, of course. 🤣 🤣

I think the Palestinians need to stop stalling and actually start the final showdown with the occupiers. They need to get more fighters and RPGs on the ground right now 👍to finally kick those hated occupiers out, though we all know they’ll just keep acting like they're being hit by lightning, just like they always have. 👍

US security forces caught 20 Palestinians in Sinai overnight Saturday in possession of explosives and electronic devices which would enable them to listen in to The Egyptian forces.

The Americans feed them, and these people plot to kill them. 🙂 🙂

A religion of peace? Give me a break. 😍

It’s just wild how some people—honestly, those clueless types who swallow every single narrative they're fed—are out here cheering while $7.6 billion is handed over to them... and then, instead of actually fixing their own economy or investing in local infrastructure, they just go right out and buy weapons. It's such a bizarre cycle—just a total lack of foresight, really.

Oh, come on now—it’s just so much easier to live under the delusion that everyone else is obligated to foot the bill so you don't have to lift a finger—as if sitting around doing absolutely nothing is some kind of God-given right you're entitled to... 🙄

"Dhimmi"? "Kafir"? Look, I consider myself a pretty educated person, but I haven't the slightest clue what kind of jargon you're spewing here. Someone give me an American translation, please.

Kafir basically means a non-Muslim, or an unbeliever.

Dhimmi refers to that "privileged" status Jewish and Christian populations held under Islamic rule... though, if by "privileged" you mean having to wear specific clothing just to signal which religion you follow, stepping off the sidewalk whenever a Muslim walks by so you don't "pollute" their path, being banned from preaching your faith in public, not being allowed to build new houses of worship or even fix up old ones, and facing taxes ranging from 80% to 150%—which is really just a protection racket, let's be honest—then sure, it was privileged.

You can find all the details in Umarov's pact with the conquered.

"dhimmi = the 'protected' status of Jews and Christians under Islamic rule... "

so, you're claiming Jews and Christians living in Muslim countries gave the Palestinians $7.6 billion 😕.
I honestly have no idea what point you're trying to make here 🤷

Don't you see the comparison? I mean—the people cutting those checks aren't officially dhimmi, but they are certainly acting like it 👎

I don't get the metaphor at all. It's gotta be some weird Zionist inside joke or something.
keep on 👍

It would be beneficial if you could assist with this petition regarding the Gaza Strip 🙂

honestly, I have no clue. with a vocabulary as limited as yours, who can even predict what you'll spout next?

Christians living in America today are basically dhimmis.

Even a child could see that. And yet, you're out here funding "Palestinians." 😉

It’s not an insult; the guy is just telling it like it is.
If global Islamic dominance actually happens, you'll be the first one feeling it.

A minute ago you were acting all high and mighty saying you don't know what your words mean, and now suddenly you're an expert on what counts as an "insult"?

What are you even doing?

And what's with you acting so smart? Talking about "global Islamic dominance"? 😕
Where did you even pull that from? Why are you typing out things when it's painfully obvious you don't actually understand what they mean?

That’s all just straight-up stuff copied from the holy Hadiths and the Quran.🙂

Look, I'm just glad Vatican City isn't out there acting like those religious fanatics in Iran, trying to build an atomic bomb. But hey, you’re totally defending them, aren't you?

Iran should have a nuclear bomb because Israel has one right next door. It’s called a balance of terror, plain and simple.
I mean, personally, I’d love it if nobody had nukes, truly, but since Pakistan, India, and Israel are already sitting on them, I don't see why anyone can deny that same right to Iran.

The difference is, Pakistan, India, and Israel aren't being run by religious maniacs and fanatics right now.
