@Maj. Bill Martin

To be fair, she did earlier call for the West Bank to be re-annexed by Jordan, and for the Egyptian Army to re-occupy Gaza.  And also for the Golan Heights to be given back to Syria so that Hezbollah could rain artillery shells onto Israeli civilians from the high ground.

This is her solution to bring 'peace' to the Jews.  Not really anything there for Palestinians though.

I didn't see that in this thread so I'll address it now. But basically this falls under the category of already tried and failed.

First, when Egypt had Gaza, and Jordan had the West Bank, and Syria had the Golan Heights, the result was them announcing a war of extermination against Israel in 1967.  So obviously, that combination of circumstances didn't work the first time.

But overlooking that, maybe she could argue that those countries wouldn't go to war against Israel now if those lands were returned to them. The problem with that is that Egypt wants nothing to do with Gaza, and Jordan wants nothing to do with the West Bank. And why would they? Both regions are poort, and are hot beds of Islamic fundamentalism and potential terrorism. Islamic fundamentalists are fans of neither the Egyptian nor Jordanian governments.  Both have flatly rejected absorbing those two regions. So that part of a peace plan never even gets off the ground.

The second problem is, as you note, the Palestinians essentially get nothing out of this. Even if we were to ignore reality and assume that Egypt and Jordan would take over those lands, all that means is the Palestinians would exchange one ruler for another, and not one of their own choosing.  Both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank have made it very clear that they do not want to be part of either Jordan or Egypt

In other words, returning Gaza to Egypt and the West Bank to Jordan is a complete non-starter no matter how you look at it.

Lol, in my state two of the congresscritters basically posted every picture/quote/endorsement from Trump they could of, painting the picture of them on their knees in my mind. Katie Britt (Shelby's lapdog before he retired) and Tommie Tubberville (the out of state person who suddenly wanted in politics). I wonder if they are so adamant now (at a 5% disadvantage fundraising).

Everything anyone needs to know about militant Muzzies can be summed up on 11 Sept 2001. 

None can be trusted or given an inch. And the half measures being practiced by Bibi of late is a bad strategy.    They are like roaches...  Finish them off!!!!

Disagree my FRiend.  Abiding by the West's ridiculous demands in proportionate warfare Bibi continues to allow the world to see what kind of enemy Israel is dealing with.

This thread is about baseball, not about you, @DCPatriot .


None of the posted videos involved a player waiting for the ball to arrive and jumping straight up.  Edmonds caught the ball backhanded.  Matthews took his eye off the ball twice before gloving it.  And Mitchell didn't even use a glove.  They were all spectacular catches that any baseball enthusiast would admire.  Not sure why you felt the need to insult me over it.  Again, it wasn't about you.  The Mullins catch was equally spectacular.  I thank @AllThatJazzZ for posting it.

@Hoodat

Liar!!  Who do you think you're kidding??

You posted all three videos without comment merely to mock me for suggesting it was "the greatest catch I had ever seen"...clearly suggesting that there were better ones.

Anybody can search "greatest outfield catches" and come up with a ton of examples.  That's all you did and that was your intent.

Now run along little man.

Long before the era of ESPN, and 24/7 baseball coverage and film, I remember seeing a play by CF Ceasar Cedeno (circa '71) that has to be the greatest I've seen.

For me, it was a catch Claudell Washington made when he was with the Braves.  He climbed the wall running parallel to it as if it grew stairs.

At the time, the Braves had seriously overpaid Washington with a very generous contract.  Rumor has it that Ted Turner was drunk at some party and thought he was talking to Dave Winfield's agent, not Claudell Washington's.

Anyway, wish I could find a video of that catch.
