Yes we do. And it's why he's trying so hard.
I don't like your blankets anymore. Will you take these back?
I will. Thankfully smallpox isn't transmitted by blankets, so thanks for the free blankets. :)
Well that's not exactly correct as it can be spread by bedding it just depends how long since the infected person occupied that bedding. If the blankets have not been washed and they've been stored out of direct sunlight. The disease is spread by bodily fluids usually most virulent are the sores. However if it's been greater than 24 hours and the blankets are dry then they should be safe.
If your username is a reference to Fort Pitt, the blankets were likely never used as a bio weapon to begin with. If they had been previously used by people who had smallpox the infection would have been an old one. Speaking of old infections some think it was one of the oldest diseases in human history.
Indeed. You could find one of the few posts I've submitted that says similar info with citations.
I believe you. Happy trails.
How is this anything other than PR? Biden has all the power to force a ceasefire. An arms embargo and threatening of sanctions would stop the genocide today.
Politics.
If Biden does the right thing Trump gains a new megaphone. BIDEN ABANDONED ISRAEL, Yada Yada Yada.
By their current cold calculus the momentum Trump could gain isn't outweighed by what Harris stands to gain from it.
It's evil. But that's how they think. The dead are just numbers to them.
Also AIPAC would divert all of their money to the Republican party. They already have the NRA they don't need AIPAC money
It sucks but we're essentially living under Mafia rule
AIPAC already has diverted all their money to republicans. They took out Cori Bush in favor of a candidate who may as well be a republican
AIPAC needs to be declared a foreign lobby group and banned
