I was at a bar that was playing some mainstream propoganda slop on the tv, must have mentioned israel or Iran when some orclike entity in ill fitted camo grunted out something about "weak men scared to fight for their country"
I out loud said people just aren't stupid enough to go die plinking sand monkeys for israeli interests while bean hordes piledrive our home country anymore. His souless gaze locked on me as he started espouting his service record like the McDonald's menu. I said that's quite impressive for a faggot droning brown kids from the safety of 2 countries over.
This must've set off his programming and fired off what little neurons he still had. Couldn't even tell you what the mystery meat monster was squeeling as he thrashed on that poor barstool's unbreakable will.
I scoffed at the spectacle which had to have activated his kill mode. The frothing mess lurched forward and all it took was mild reactive response of avoidance to sidestep and watch the golem trip on himself and come crashing down.
I sat on this beanbag's back and slapped it on the back of his head. He was already teary eyed and farting profusely in impotent rage. Once the whole bar was splitting their sides in laughter I got off and told him it's ok, no hard feelings. The creature scampered away in fright (I guess having to actually fight for once in it's life was too daunting).
Someone yelled out "Simper Fag!" as it barreled out the doors.
Anyway good luck to the homos and losers set up with recruitment duty. Hope you like the taste of Remington-brand pepper

You don't think that the rebel high command didn't know the population of the Death Star and all of the capabilities of it?

So Ted Cruz is comparing himself to someone who takes orders and only has enough knowledge to carry out his mission? Ted Cruz isn't a policy maker or in on the strategic planning? Why is anyone listening to him then?

If Evangelical Christians are Zionists and their greatest ally is:
Key Aspects of Talmudic References to Jesus:
Critique and Rejection: The Talmudic narratives that are believed to refer to Jesus are generally critical and even hostile. They dispute Christian claims about Jesus being the Messiah and Son of God.
Execution: One notable passage in Sanhedrin 43a relates the trial and execution of a sorcerer named "Yeshu" on the eve of Passover, which some scholars connect to Jesus' crucifixion.
Negative portrayal: The Talmudic accounts depict Jesus negatively, at times calling him a sorcerer, a deceiver, and a seducer who led the Israelites astray.
Healing in Jesus' Name: Some passages mention individuals who are believed to be disciples of Jesus healing in his name.
"Son of Pandera": Certain passages refer to Jesus as "Ben Pandera" or "son of Pandera," which is often interpreted as a derogatory reference to his virgin birth.
Scholarly Interpretation: The interpretation of these passages is debated among scholars. Some, like Peter Schรคfer, see them as sophisticated anti-Christian polemics that parody the New Testament narratives. Others, like Daniel J. Lasker, view them as "embryonic" Jewish objections to Christianity.
Controversy and Censorship: Historically, some editions of the Talmud were censored by Christian authorities due to alleged blasphemous references to Jesus and Mary.
Does this mean Zionists are antichrists?

His attitude is whats weird.
You have random /pol/ anons who did research on the CIA 50s coup, the Shah, the savak police, the Iran-Iraq war, Khomenei etc just to contribute to the discussion and Ted simply knows nothing...

How cushy and sheltered are these people?

which is really quite odd because within Islam there is this saying that the jews will align themselves with the dajjal. So its hard to rationalize it as an American than America might actually be the dajjal, if I were to stay within this religious context.
Time, not supposition will ultimately reveal if this is true or not.

It does look like they are playing arrogance for a reason. It's like they are trying to relate to the average citizen who knows nothing on the issue.
It's hard to believe people that climbed so high are literal retards.
Also it's quite a recurring theme. It plays again and again.

A few days ago I saw post from an official profile of the American government criticizing liberals for using Star War analogies, now, the other side of American politics is doing the same thing.

Lmfao Ted Cruz couldn't tell you parts of the bible that is his own "faith" that guides his policy. He was unable to describe the difference between the bible verse on israel and a state of government. He couldn't descibe what AIPAC does and why they get special treatment. It seems like he doesn't know anything, but haha yeah population is funny. Ted Cruz just looked pathetic but pathetic on purpose, because he is just saying the talking points given to him

Glaucon posits:
Suppose now that there were two such magic rings, and the just put on one of them and the unjust the other; no man can be imagined to be of such an iron nature that he would stand fast in justice. No man would keep his hands off what was not his own when he could safely take what he liked out of the market, or go into houses and lie with any one at his pleasure, or kill or release from prison whom he would, and in all respects be like a god among men.

Then the actions of the just would be as the actions of the unjust; they would both come at last to the same point. And this we may truly affirm to be a great proof that a man is just, not willingly or because he thinks that justice is any good to him individually, but of necessity, for wherever any one thinks that he can safely be unjust, there he is unjust.
For all men believe in their hearts that injustice is far more profitable to the individual than justice, and he who argues as I have been supposing, will say that they are right. If you could imagine any one obtaining this power of becoming invisible, and never doing any wrong or touching what was another's, he would be thought by the lookers-on to be a most wretched idiot, although they would praise him to one another's faces, and keep up appearances with one another from a fear that they too might suffer injustice.

โ€”Plato, Republic, 360bโ€“d (Jowett trans.)
Though his answer to Glaucon's challenge is delayed, Socrates argues ultimately that justice does not derive from this social construct: the man who abused the power of the Ring of Gyges has in fact enslaved himself to his appetites, while the man who chose not to use it remains rationally in control of himself and is therefore happy (Republic 10:612b).

Teddy Cruz is still mad that he knows nothing about a country he wants to fight a war against.
Ted Cruz should be thrown in prison for treason.

In the metaphor, found at 488aโ€“489d, Plato's Socrates compares the population at large to a strong but near-sighted ship's master. The quarreling sailors are demagogues and politicians, and the ship's navigator is a philosopher. The sailors flatter themselves with claims to knowledge of sailing, despite knowing nothing of navigation, and are constantly vying with one another for the approval of the master, offering wine and gifts. In truth, the sailors care little for the master's wellbeing, and desire only to gain captaincy of the ship and access to its valuable food stores. The navigator is dismissed as a useless stargazer yet is the only one with the knowledge to direct the ship's course safely.
