  • Not to defend Netanyahu, he’s a despicable piece of shit.

    Israel has about 10 million people in it. If I’m not mistaken, he’s saying that it would be like the United States losing 40k people — because the way the numbers work out 1000 people from Israel is around 0.01% of their population and 40000 people from the U.S. is around 0.01% of our population.

    All that being said - Netanyahu certainly does believe that every Israeli is worth infinitely more than any American. Unfortunately his words in this circumstance do not directly reflect that belief. Perhaps indirectly, but not directly.

    Edit: my numbers are not 100% accurate due to quik maffs, but you get my point.

    They make you earn it way more than other cats, but that trust is rock solid.

    My first kitten was feral. I still have scars. She ate from my palm, no I should clarify — she demanded to be fed from my palm. She’d routinely clean me, just lick lick lick with that sandpaper tongue.

    She was my cat, and distinctly my cat. She died in my arms and I’ve never cried harder. She was worth it, though. She’d have been there for me if the situation was reversed.

    We have been here for years, the NSA has been recording everything we say here in the U.S. for… a long time. I’m not actually clear on how long they’ve been doing it.

    Also, I can buy a camera no wider than a penny and have it quite literally anywhere on my person without you knowing — unless nudists also have a rule where they drive to the nude beach naked, you’ve kinda been shit out of luck for a while there too.

    Edit: sorry, sorry — I lied. It is slightly larger than a penny.
