Interesting that you think Biden "fully cooperated" and quickly turned over classified documents that he stole when he was a SENATOR. That was a long time ago, Mr. D. Your bias is strong.

For an intelligent and well educated person, you sure make silly and unfounded statements. Always repeating the mindless Democrat talking points we hear on CNN and other DNC controlled tabloids: Biden turned over the classified documents but Trump did not. You have no problem repeating this lie. Biden had no authority as a Senator or Vice President to have and hold Classified Documents, this means they were taken illegally. They were in fact stolen. And he had them for years, decades even. By not returning them during all that time, and secretly keeping them, for all these years, he never willingly returned the documents until he was actually caught holding them. That's not returning them when asked, that's a bit of legal sophistry. In addition, they were not even kept in a secured location, found in his in his garage, in a forgotten "think tank" closet, etc. all over the place. Trump on the other hand, had full legal authority to have these documents, like all previous presidents, and had them in one location, locked and secured by his own security and the secret service. Trump and his lawyers were in the process of sorting through these documents, and in negotiations with the NA, to return various documents. Did Biden get an armed swat team and CNN showing up at his door? Just like Hillary and her illegal personal server, and 30,000 emails many with Classified Information....nothing. Democrats are always above the law. Rules for thee, but not for me.

This war will determine the future of Israel, the sacred home of the Jewish people. 21 brave young men died yesterday in defense of the Jewish State, its ideal of ethnic superiority and the social structure designed to maintain it. If IDF soldiers do not fight and kill, that social structure may undergo forcible change. The system may then no longer guarantee ethnic superiority of the long persecuted Jewish People. Israel will go on the American prescribed path of equal rights for an inferior ethnic group, a groups not loyal to the Jewish State ideology of ethnic supremacy of the Jewish People. Equal rights, propgated by ignorant gentiles with no skin in the outcome of the fight leads inevitably to development of a new Fuhrer among Arabs right here in Israel driving a new Jewish exodus from their divinely granted heritage. The Jewish people must use its God-given intellectual superiority to fight as a nation and as the Chosen People with an immutable aim of preserving what has been developed since 1948. More soldiers will die because the social structure of Israel must be maintained.or the Jewish People will face a new Holocaust. The alternative to Israel as it is, is South Africa..

Wow. Supporting an on going real holocaust in order to prevent a hypothetical future holocaust against the current perpetrators. That was exactly Hitler's philosophy. You are in good company now.

Hi Joe. Remember English class in High School. IRONY is a literary technique for conveying a message.

My ears are far more open to what you are saying about civilian deaths in Gaza than the numbers at any level because those numbers are spouted /controlled by the so-called "Health Service" run by Hamas! Plus, what the H kind of "health service" allows mined-tunnels to be built under hospitals? So now there are no hospitals (or few and in terrible condition) in Gaza: what did Gazans and Hamas think would happen when Israel defends itself by attacking the Hamas tunnels that just happens to be built under (1) hospitals and (2) The hospitals have Gazan residents as both "the patients" and " the doctors, nurses, and non- medical general employees? My points: I am tired of the "Hamas-Defenders" who overlook Hamas' being the war instigator / genocidal invaders. They are in fact "Jew Haters" that also overlook Hamas' Charter that has as its raisin d'être the death of Jews and destruction of Israel. Hamas set up Gazans , including babies and children, for slaughter no matter in what numbers. The hypocrisy and lies about the Gazan situation are patent.

Professor Dershowitz,

Just to clear up things. What Republicans are banning books? They are acting as civil libertarians by giving parents rights over the government run schools. They are not banning books but removing unfettered access to what is essentially pornographic material from underage children. We used to do this as common sense but some people have convinced school districts that they need to provide elementary school kids with books that include pictures and descriptions of sex acts. There is a reason in FL for example that they called the bill that did this the Parental Rights in Education act. The books are not banned as they are still sold and are even provided in libraries to adults and older children. They are just not available to young children. I'll assume that you don't think pornography belongs in elementary schools.

Your other reason you often mention for not voting for Republicans is abortion. Do civil libertarians believe that you can do anything you want? No. Not if it negatively affects or harms another person. What is abortion? It literally is the ending of a life of another human. Certainly not everyone sees a fetus as person by 6 week or 16 weeks but at some point that fetus becomes a person. Your view is merely different than others on when. Most in the GOP err on the side of saving a human life. This is not anti-libertarian. We merely differ on the age of gestation as to when it should go into affect.

Gay/LGTBQ rights. Most in the GOP don't care what anyone does at home. They merely don't want it pushed as propaganda to our kids. They don't believe that they Christian baker should be forced to make penis wedding cake for the gay couple. Our kids shouldn't be forced to use pronouns or share bathrooms with people of the opposite sex. The LGTBQ agenda is what is extreme. No forcing to do things against their will (using pronouns and such) is where the civil libertarians are.

Please think about these issues and stop using your old history to think that these wacky views of the progressives are closer to your personal beliefs than the average Republican.
