68. They love their kids - you can see how loving the father's are to their kids

Sun Jul 27, 2025, 08:34 PM

Jul 27

American drs in Gaza say the kids are targeted and it’s almost like a game - one day they are all shot in the head, another day the chest, another day the testicles etc. We see from the many videos how sick this army is - photographing themselves in Palestinian women’s clothes and hanging kids dolls from the ceiling.

When they bomb a Dr or journalist ‘s home, they do it at night when the kids will be there sleeping.

Besides evil, how dumb can Netanyou be? This is 2025 and the world is watching his genocide in real time. Our kids are seeing decapitated babies on their phones everyday.

Thankful the younger generation is anti war. Young Republicans at Turning Points gave Tucker & Dave Smith the most applause- the two anti Gaza war guys. Saw the clips on X. Trump is probably compromised by Israeli intelligence - so many podcasters Dem & Republican are now anti war. Big shout out to Crystal Ball for covering this big time
