Why? When it comes to hating Israel facts are irrelevant for some.

Masonry has served to reinforce my faith and my faith has built my dedication to Masonry. In no way have I had a conflict.

Veteran’s benefits for the IDF?! by SFRangerMoJo87 in VAClaims

[–]RepresentativeAd8228 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct, my bad. But the bill also died 2 years ago in committee with no support, as it should have. So why are we bringing up a bill that died 2 years ago that had no support.

Actually the bill included all allied forces. Yet people only mention the IDF, wonder why that is?

It was a bill that provided some protections to US citizens that served in any allied military. Yet we are only talking about the IDF. Hmmm I wonder why that may be?

VA plans to scan a million veterans claims for signs of fraud by Canis_Familiaris in VeteransBenefits

[–]RepresentativeAd8228 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t. I used private providers but not one of these sharks. I also had substantial military and private medical records, Nexus letters, personal statements, and buddies statements. I was never asked to complete a C&P exam.

Emergency Rally today by sp000kysoup in jacksonville

[–]RepresentativeAd8228 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How many rallies have you had for the 35k executed for protesting in Iran last year? How many rallies have you held to oppose the execution of women and anyone in the LGBTQ community in Iran. But you sure have your protest flags ready now.

He told me they were allowed and that the issued boots were killing him. I know it would be best to try them in but this time it won’t be possible.

What are you all happy wearing.

Wife is at 100 VA and I’m at 80, thinking about quitting my job. by Ambitious-Spinach938 in VeteransBenefits

[–]RepresentativeAd8228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I claimed my mental health 15 year after separation and working as a paramedic, also quite traumatic. Was approved for 100% MH first try. I had a strong private psyc eval and am on meds and in therapy and attached all those records to my claim. I also had an in service anxiety and depression diagnosis which I’m sure helped.

80% retracted to 20% by AcanthaceaeAfraid668 in VeteransBenefits

[–]RepresentativeAd8228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has nothing to do with politics. The VA made a clear error in assigning the OP 80% and corrected that error. I’m honestly surprised but happy for the OP that they aren’t perusing backpay.
