TWO WRONGS LET VOTERS DECIDE

With regards to the Hamas-Israel conflict, here is my view as an uninvolved observer.

Most Palestinians hate

Israelis and wish they would all die or go and live elsewhere. This is wrong.

Most Israelis hate Palestinians and wish they would all die or go and live elsewhere. This is wrong.

Hate is not born in people. As Rogers and Hammerstein put it, “You’ve got to be taught to hate and fear/You’ve got to be taught from year to year/It’s got to be drummed in your dear little ear/You’ve got to be carefully taught.”

This is why the hope of the world is in mothers and fathers teaching their children what is right, not in one group of haters cheering the abhorrent violence they perpetrate while the other group of haters cheers the abhorrent retaliatory violence they characterize as defense. – Joanne Miles, – Hollywood

Hasn’t Maine’s secretary of state exceeded her authority by finding that ex-President Donald Trump is not qualified to run for president in 2024? Haven’t the states of Colorado and Maine set a dangerous precedent by trying to deny voters their right to vote for the candidate of their choice?

Should state officials decide for the voters who they can vote for based purely on an opinion they have rather than on court convictions or other due process proceedings that would prohibit candidates from running for office?

If the former president is thought to be an insurrectionist in the court of public opinion, then the voters will decide whether he is unfit for office by not voting for him.

Isn’t that how the system is supposed to work?
