Other than perhaps clinging to Tulsi's horrendous delusions. Imagine someone who is blind to the fact that a tyrant has killed 400,000 of his people, and blames it on the rebels against him instead, and even the USA which has done almost nothing. I have no respect for holocaust deniers like Tulsi. I have respect for people rising up against tyrants for freedom and justice. That's progress to me; maybe not to you and Tulsi?
-- while you & Rags were tete-a-teteing, l was googling tulsi holocaust denial & came up with zip. You got a link to that?
There need be no link. She is denying the holocaust in Syria.
-- but not the Holocaust. Which is what you implied. I have fun going back & forth with you, which is why l don't get pissed @ you like some others here do, but that was really low Eric
Otoh, Tulsi's been taking alot of heat for that trip, so she must of done something right. My homeboy Dennis was with her too, so l know it was all good
I don't know who Dennis is (Kucinich? a has-been; I finally guessed since now I know you're from Ohio), but what's going on in Syria is definitely a holocaust (if not THE "holocaust"), perpetrated by a ruthless, genocidal dictator named Assad upon his people who rose peacefully against him and demanded that he help them in their economic and climate-caused distress. Instead he kills 400,000 of his people and forces most of the rest out of his country and onto the shores or terrified Europeans and paranoid Trumpians. Horrible; the worst thing since Hitler. And Tulsi simply denies it. Incredible. Insane.
-- Eric, a general rule of thumb: when ppl say the word "holocaust, the holocaust is question is usually the one that happened during WW2. So a holocaust denier (& there are plenty, but Tulsi is not among them) refers to somebody who denies that particular holocaust. Now don't get me wrong- 400,000 ppl is a gawd-awful body count.. but nothing compared to 6 million dead bodies. Hell it ain't even 10%. The WW2 holocaust still rules. And I really wish ppl wouldn't trivialize that horror show. Same thing with calling Assad Hitler. Bad as he is, he's still eating Hitler's dust. And as for the Orange Menace.. bitch puh-leeze.
Tulsi's not denying it. She's simply saying the Govt shouldn't be arming IS. And that any peace deal has to involve Assad. Considering he's the Syrian prez, that's just common sense
As for my homeboy Dennis, call him washed up, but l was merely stating that his progressive bona fides are not in question if you (or Odin, or anybody is doubting Tulsi's ) he was marginalized by the Dems for being their conscience, this last census they merged his district with neighboring ones & managed to get him out of Congress
It's possible he's positioning himself for a gubenatorial run next yr, if so that would be cool
