Stop Talking About Proportion’: John Fetterman Defends Israel Against Accusations of Genocide In Fiery Speech
mediaite ^

Posted on 01/11/2024 11:01:00 AM PST by MNDude

“Who are we? Who are they really fighting? It’s a group of cowards. They hide in tunnels. They hide behind civilians. They attack, kill, and usually children murder. And they do that. Stop talking about proportion on that. They shot their best shot on October 7th, and they would have taken more lives if they could’ve done that,” Fetterman said in a fiery speech before the group.

“But they couldn’t do it. And now let’s also talk about that. Now we’re talking about genocide. And now South Africa is now bringing that kind of a trial. Maybe South Africa, maybe ought to sit this one out where they’re talking about criticizing, given the history there. Sit it out,” Fetterman added to applause.

I seriously do not get where Fetterman is coming from or what happened to him. This is wild stuff given his supposed political pedigree.

it is almost like they (the string pullers in the DNC / élite) planned on him remaining a near braindead puppet that would be presented in small doses and instead he woke up and now they can’t control him.

For once, something I can agree with him on.

1200 Israelis were murdered.
There are 11 million Israelis.
There are 500 million Arabs.

1200 / (11/500) = 54,000.

That is the proportional response.

There was no genocide.

The IDF is committing premeditated Hamascide

I imagine the Dems are saying the same thing, wondering if he got a brain transplant when he was in the hospital.

I can’t imagine Dr Oz saying anything like this.

Which of the “Fettermen” are saying this?

When Fetterman isn’t defending Israel, he’s attacking fellow Democratic senator Bob Menendez, and demanding that he resign.

So who is this guy, and what did he do with the original Fetterman?

Fetterman, to the Dems, is what Romney is/was to the GOP.

It befuddles the mind that out of everybody on that side of the aisle, John Fetterman turns out to be the sole voice of reason.

I’ll gladly take it, of course. I’m just surprised by it. Perhaps he’s seen some writing on the wall or something and knows it’s the right thing to do, whether because of political expediency or otherwise.

“I seriously do not get where Fetterman is coming from or what happened to him.”

Wasn’t he something of a loose cannon as Lt. Governor in PA?

I must point out that all Muslims have a fanatical devotion to advancing Islam. And Dr Oz is a Muslim.

Did you ever see the 90’s movie Phenomenon? The main character got, unbeknownst to him, a brain tumor that activated nearly 100% of his brain, making him a mega-genius with psycho-physical powers.

Maybe this is what Fetterman’s stroke did to him. It made him face reality.

It’s just more evidence of his brain damage.

Just happens to help our side. If he was pre-stroke he’d be spouting 100% liberal points.

As the blood flow returns to his brain, and new neurological paths are created to repair the ones damaged by his stroke, Fetterman starts sounding more and more reasonable...
