61RZ25 Contrâ - Of course, it's the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund that keeps me from voting Për.  From what I've been able to find, the PCR over the years has had around it clouds of some sort of association with terrorist organizations.

To be sure, I am frankly leery right now of any organization claiming to help Palestinian children, as I fear any money given to said organization would somehow be funneled to Hamas, which is the real enemy of the Palestinians, even if they refuse to acknowledge that fact.

If Hamas had not done October 7, Israel never would have bombed Gaza.

While recognizing - and as a Jewish friend of mine put it - there are no "virgins" on either side of the Israel-Palestinian conflict, I acknowledge there being a spiritual dimension to all of this most people for whatever reason do not recognize and that is deeper than anything we can possibly imagine.

I want the Palestinians and Israelis to live in peace.  And not just physical peace.  This will only happen when both sides recognize the Jesus Christ of the Old and New Testaments as Messiah. 

That happy day will happen, but any more discussion on that, and this post becomes a novel.

My question is for the Minister of Public Records. Opposition politicians have been saying that this Government's performance on immigration has been notoriously bad, issuing calls for urgent action of some unspecified nature. Can the Minister provide any public records to compare immigration application levels in this Cosa with previous terms?

4. **Strengthen the national budget** through an annual mandatory contribution from all citizens.

A relic of Old Talossa makes its return.  I was in that party up to summer 2001 and had a good time with it.

As to the above agenda-item, "mandatory" alone should dissuade anyone but Max supporting the revived RCT.

I like the red-blue-white scheme.  Leave out the purple.

Consider your nomination of Mic'haglh Autofíl as our next PM as being endorsed by myself.

Your run as a political force, Miestrâ, has been seismic.  You single-handedly kept the Republic together and led us to Reunision, taking the bull by the horns and initiating that most-worthy process - a true Talossan miracle.

Your history of Talossa has been anything but boring, and I will not rehash it here save that I'm glad as all-get-out you are still here with us, and hope you will always be.

I've been concerned over Miestrâ-burnout for some time.  (As for myself, in the past seven years at least, I never would have been able to be effective as a PM or anything beyond simply voting on the Clark every month.  I am still that way and will continue that way indefinitely, I think.)

Every empire has a shelf-life.  Save one: God's sovereignty over all things, which will never end.

But human institutions?  They come and go.  And so do people.  Miestrâ has realized her ending in such a level of activity as she has put out has come upon her, and I raise my glass in tribute to her as a person and as the best Talossa can be.

Ergo, I will mindlessly obey Miestrâ's latest diktat.  I am a sheep.  BAAAAAA!  ;-)

Again, I ask everyone to vote Mic'haglh Autofíl as our PM nominee.
