He’s Jewish Dick Cheney. Netanyahu is a monster but he has the ability to be good at things. No one can match Trump’s absolutely unique blend of being bad and wrong at every single thing individually, each to a literally unbelievable degree. It’s like good music. It has to come straight from the heart.

I’m sure that’ll work. Nothing puts fear in the heart of rich politicians more than peaceful protesters making demands.

I love examples of why it’s wrong to equate the actions of a faction with the whole people. Israelis are not Netanyahu, Palestinians are not Hamas, Russians are not Putin, and Americans are not Trump. We can argue about culpability of citizens in the actions of their leaders, much as we can argue whether a person’s parents are responsible for their behavior, but whether they’re effective or not these protestors, and people like them, restore some of my faith in humanity.

It’s always the young adults who are fighting against the evils of the old leaders, isn’t it? I’m telling you, the world needs Carousel.
