Hello, hello, hello, John Mason. How is everybody? The war between Israel and Hamas is such a distress to me and to every American Jew, every person with a conscience. The Hamas has the forces of Hamas have have kidnapped innocent civilians, little kids, older late old ladies. For just grabbed them and massacred just massacred some others, like the kids that were partying at that concert. Just it just fills me with distress. And I'm left wondering, is Israel doing the right thing? How far can it go? Well, they're defending themselves, so they have every right to defend themselves. And we've got to make myself clear, I have no ill feeling for the Palestinians. I very much wish for reconciliation between and peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians. And how much of the blame belongs to Netanyahu, who I'm no fan of either. There are reports that it the Egyptian intelligence and Israeli intelligence informed him that there was going to be a big attack. And he did precisely exactly nothing. Just sat back and let it happen. What's wrong with him? Is his eagle so big that you can't see what's going on? Does he think he's infallible? Being in office for as long as he's been, you probably must think so. And in this country there have been uh attacks not on Israelis but um all Jews. It it gives the Jew haters uh permission to hate on Jews. And which they've been itching to for so long. Which they've they've been oh I mean they they've always been doing it, but uh it's just another excuse for them what can we do? If there's refugee support agencies, that would be a good start. And dealing with a more pleasant uh topic, the once again for the third time, Jim Jordan of Ohio, or hell, has been voted down as a candidate for Speaker of the House of Representatives. And a few other Republicans are are being proposed to uh to be the sucker that tries again. And like Kevin McCarthy face the wrath of the far-right MAGA caucus in the House. And should and should Donald Trump uh put out one mean tweet about him, he's going to face the wrath of the MAGAIS, Trump's followers, and there will be violence. Threats of violence and actual violence. There are reports that that the wives of Republican Congress members and congressional offices have been in the day with death threats, which is the which is exactly the type of people we're dealing with. It shows the kind of people we're dealing with. The old idea of democracy is there's two opposing factions and they come together, work out their differences for the good of the whole nation. Well, those days are long gone if they even existed. We can't negotiate with with people who are out to destroy us and destroy our our democracy in an attempt to an attempt for their uh glorious leader to return to power. So let's get organized. Let's communicate with each other, let's educate ourselves, and the next time voting happens, go out and vote. Like in Pennsylvania, uh the the time the day of for the general election in Pennsylvania is November 7th. I urge my Pennsylvania people to get out there and vote. Okay, I'm all talked out for now.
