e's what you do. You take Gaza and you call it reparations and you say hey all you people if you want to resettle, Iran is the cause of this. Iran needs to take you. And if they don't take you we'll just leave you in these camps forever. So because your home is in Iran now. If you let Iran be your daddy, well you live with your daddy. All right. Israel isn't your daddy. Your daddy funded your war. Go live with your daddy. And we don't care if you do or you don't but one thing for sure is you just gave away Gaza forever. Gaza will become an Israeli property managed by Israelis. And I'm not even sure any Palestinians or Hamas people will ever be let back in because we got nothing from trying to make peace. We got nothing. So we're just going to take Gaza. And anybody who complains, complain to Iran. You can take your complaint to Iran. I'm not even going to answer your question. Blah blah blah. Bad things happened to the Gazans. Yes it did. Terrible things happened to them. Talk to Iran. We're done pretending this is our fault.

Now in the real world is Israel at fault for current situation? Of course. Of course yeah they're our ally but did they participate in creating the current situation? Of course. Are there any innocent people? I don't think so. No I think everybody there sucks basically just in different ways. I'm talking about the government not the people. People are fine. I like the people but governments are sketchy organizations and especially if you're in a sketchy part of the world.

So if Israel wants to be serious about this, take Gaza, keep it, call it reparations and say we'd like some more land too. So if you want to keep going we'd like to own a little bit of Lebanon because Hezbollah has got some nice property up there. I'd hate to see them lose it. See what I'm saying? Israel has to get bigger every time they get attacked otherwise it just happens forever. So I'm in favor of them just keeping Gaza. Do I think that that would constitute a genocide? Yes. Yes it would. Do I think that going back to the way it was is some kind of an advantage? No. Going back to the way it was will get you more of this. There's nothing good going back to the way it was. Repopulating it would be just stupid. So you need a good excuse for not repopulating it and keeping it and Iran just gave you one. They just attacked your homeland. You attacked your homeland and we're going to send you back your people. I know they're not your people but they are now because we can't take care of them and we don't have the resources but Iran does. So maybe Iran should take care of their people instead of putting them in a situation where they can only die.

All right. Scott is a bit weak on that idea. How about you use a not-up word for your opinion? How about you say what you think is important that hasn't been mentioned instead of saying I'm weak on it like a turd? How about not saying that while I'm sitting there reading the comments in front of you? If I weren't here that would be a perfectly fine thing to say. Like if you talk about somebody who's not going to read it you say well they're weak on that topic. But I'm right here in front of you so if you say I'm weak on it and you don't tell me what is the objection you're just being an asshole. So I'm going to call you out on that.

I need reparations from the King of England. Yes you do.

All right that's my idea.

Hezbollah got in on the airstrikes. They don't know that their real estate's at risk now. Now I do understand that Israel tried to occupy some of Lebanon at one point and it was just untenable so that's a different situation. But they've already essentially conquered Gaza and depopulated it so I wouldn't compare that to Lebanon.

All right. Israel's pledged an unprecedented response to Iran's attack. What do you think would be an unprecedented response? Keeping Gaza. Just say all right we're just going to keep Gaza. Never be a better time to do it.

Thomas Massie is quite sure that the Israel situation is going to lead to funding Israel and then making it a package to fund Ukraine and they'll be packaged together because that's how the people who like wars can get their wars. They'll make one of them irresistible and package it with the one that's resistible. So that's going to happen. Yes Massie you're completely right.

Elon Musk said in a just sort of an offhand quip to a question that AI will run the US government by 2032. Now I'll vote against that prediction. I don't think there's any chance we're going to give up the country to AI in 2032 but it's a provocative thing to say. I'm not sure he was totally serious when he said it but it's a head scratcher. I mean when it comes from Musk I think what he's responding to is the fact that by 2032 AI will be so super intelligent that we'd wish it were running the country but we're not going to let it. That's a different thing.

At a Trump rally people started, I guess last night, people started chanting genocide Joe and Trump let them chant as he sometimes does. He walks away from the podiu
