    So what you are saying is we have found the only non trump anti genocide candidate?

    And it pisses him off more?

    I’m off to donate to her campaign

        No offense but I don’t trust aljazeera on anything involving Israel, their other reporting tends to be fairly good though.

          Literally 2 seconds of Googling- https://iowacapitaldispatch.com/2023/10/20/nikki-haley-says-she-would-support-israel-strengthen-u-s-military-as-president/

          Let me guess, you don’t trust an Iowa newspaper to accurately report on what Nikki Haley said while she was campaigning in Iowa.

            Nicely cited. Didn’t even need the snarky jab chaser lol.

            He’s not very wrong about Al Jazeera’s editorial bent.

              The Al Jazeera article had direct quotes from Haley. Unless your argument is that Al Jazeera fabricates such quotes, and I don’t think there is any evidence they do that, the criticism was wrong.

                Nope, I agree that AJ article is well written and on point.

                My feeling about AJ is they seem to have a background editorial agenda in general.

                And that’s plenty ok, IMO. Just good to keep in mind.

            Thank you for a source that wasn’t aljazeera.

            Come on squid, me, you, and pugjesus all have slightly different feelings but we pretty much agree on a lot.

            Why make it personal?

            I was polite and only asked for a source that was too close to the subject and would undoubtedly have a large amount of bias on this subject .

            I know for a fact that you are better than this.

              Because acting like the source that gives direct quotes is too biased to trust those quotes is silly. Especially when you’re talking about Al Jazeera, not Newsmax.

                I don’t trust their “quotes” not to be false and I do not feel like taking the time to cross verify with other trusted sources.

                Once again, aljazeera is fine for things not relating to Israel, I just don’t trust them on this subject.
