If it weren't for the Iron Dome, the entire country of Israel would be rubble. Do you not understand that? They are being bombed by four groups on a daily basis. Hamas is the only one involved in this "peace" agreement. Lebanon, Iran, and Yemen haven't agreed to stop. It got so bad at one...

I stopped using Google to search years ago when I realized that I was only seeing results from paid sponsors. I use DuckDuckGo.

Israel is trying very hard to not kill civilians. How many times do we have to mention that? Hamas keeps them hostage in the hopes that some will die in the attack. Israel warns ahead of time what will be targeted to give civilians a chance to escape. But Hamas needs human shields and forces...

No, you're wrong or maybe you don't have a clue how Access fits into the available tools used to create applications. Not everyone needs or wants a Web app. Not every company or non-profit can afford to spend hundreds of thousands or even millions to build an app using a different tool than...

Why not let Egypt give them land or maybe Jordan or Syria or Iraq? Why does Israel have to give them anything? Notice that none of those countries will accept Palestinian refugees. Ask yourself why. They have lived in Gaza for almost 80 years and have managed to turn it into a sh*thole...

According to people on the ground, there were helicopters in the air. I get the drone restriction and I guess that isn't one of the laws that the Democrats think shouldn't be enforced. You mean the transcript wasn't good enough? "hear" is a figure of speech. Feel free to substitute "read"...

Then you really need to find a reliable source for your history. Try Britannica. SPECIFICALLY review what happened in 1948 when the state of Israel was formed. WHY didn't Palestine become a state on the same day?????????????????? I'll summarize it for you. Egypt invaded Israel and on the...

OK. Apparently you have no clue what is going on. We've been over this a gazillion times but you haven't believed us. You're just believing the antisemitic rhetoric. How EXACTLY do you propose to do that? Just saying it isn't going to make it happen. EVERYONE, including the Israelis would...

It actually isn't because there is nothing to replace it with.

They do not revolve around a niche product that only a relatively small number of people have any interest in at all. Only Microsoft can increase the user base and that would drive people to search for answers. Do you think that Jon should run this site for free out of the goodness of his...

That is your opinion. Kinda' like that's what the Dems did in 2020. Trump won the election but somehow Biden became President. If the Palestinians had wanted to get rid of Hamas, the Israelis would gladly have helped them and this war could have ended before it ever started but the...

And so you switch to name calling. Just FYI since you've never heard the term before and couldn't work out its meaning, a "purple" word is any word that is used deliberately to influence the reader into believing that the writer/speaker's opinion is honest and good and the person/company/thing...

You really need to read some actual history. For 40 years after the 6-day war when Israel acquired Gaza (that's what happens when a war ends and there is a victor and the victor was the victim of the initial attack, They get to keep the land. PERIOD.), Israel tried diligently to help the...

No, thousands of people look for exaggerations and misstatements for Trump and ZERO look for "lies" from the other side. You call them LIES because lies is a purple word. It has extremely negative connotations that misstatement, misquote, exaggeration, and other similar words don't have. So...

Convince Microsoft to actively market Access as a useful tool and a complement to SQL Server. The SQL Server team is convinced that "Access" which they can't separate from Jet/ACE is their competitor. There really isn't anything Jon can do to draw views. A lot of the decline can be directly...
