I consider it a marker when someone continues this thread: This thread is a living memory accurately describing how smart people, that are interested ...

As I forecasted two days ago, Israel started the land invasion of Lebanon. It was totally clear from Netanyahu's speech at the UN. Bibi is confident t...

Which also tells someone was thinking that just how important the written word would be (in the New Testament). Still, even if we do have this evident...

Actually when experts have discussed this, these issues do have been raised. And thus even when the Neocons were at helm and the US had large forces b...

It's quite noteworthy how Netanyahu defines on Middle Eastern countries on map as "The Blessing" and "The Curse". Especially when Iraq ought to be an ...

I remember how surprised I was when finding out that back then countries like Sweden and Finland had far more tighter regulation on abortion than the ...
September 28, 2024 at 21:03
I don't, so we agree. But you asked "And what rules and values does this site aspire to?" so I thought you have some problem with this. But notice tha...

You do understand that then denying atrocities that have happened is totally normal for this neutral platform, and it simply doesn't change anything. ...
September 27, 2024 at 15:11
Think about this for a moment. What do you think a neutral platform would be like? Would a UN funded / UN regulated platform start regulating what the...

So NO facebook, Instagram, X? :yikes:
September 25, 2024 at 10:28
Every fifth Pole died during WW2, so the prospect of something like that isn't at all only theoretical. The Nazis were actually quite "consistent" in ...
September 25, 2024 at 10:25
It's crazy, but true. How Russia has gone back to the Soviet era is telling. Actually, I would like that the bullshit is there to be shown... to those...
September 25, 2024 at 06:01
You misunderstood me too. Notice I was referring to the Polish Home Army. That's the 1944 Uprising, which was quite more devastating for Warsaw than t...
September 23, 2024 at 19:25
Putin surely just loves rewriting history. Or changing it altogether. Now mass graves known to be from Stalin's purges are now made to be mass graves ...
September 23, 2024 at 19:00
All the people marketing their niche topic (self help, self healing, self improvement etc) as being a way of life, a genuine philosophy. And are marke...
September 23, 2024 at 05:56
So from terrorist organization suddenly they change to "puppet authorities"? Whose puppets? I think the Al Aqsa flood-operation was quite understandab...
September 18, 2024 at 07:31
That's the paradox. If we would assume a free independent Palestine that would be as trouble free as Jordan, then that Palestine should have an effect...
September 17, 2024 at 17:16
Well, you did have the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, so things have gone quite similarly in that case. But's lets say the obvious, the death toll isn't reac...

see here See also Netanyahu: Money to Hamas part of strategy to keep Palestinians divided For years, Netanyahu propped up Hamas. Now it’s blown up in ...
September 12, 2024 at 04:17
Ok, just think about it for a while: How many rocket attacks are fired from Egypt or from Jordan to Israel? None. In fact, during the Iranian attack o...
September 11, 2024 at 14:35
How accountable are you yourself of your governments actions? You've voted, right? So you how much accountable are you again for everything they have ...
September 11, 2024 at 06:10
Then quote the international lawyer idiot who says so, because that is bullshit. Very whimsical to hold on definitions that don't at all describe the ...
September 10, 2024 at 08:58
Theoretically, perhaps. In fact, the issue is in reality a bit more complicated, as you might know. First, we don't know if our facts are the whole tr...
September 10, 2024 at 04:25
Which is understandable, because with the armed resistance comes the Israeli bombs. In "peace time" the authoritarian rule of Hamas among other issues...
September 10, 2024 at 04:18
This is an armed conflict. There is no way to deny it. Operation Al Aqsa flood was a military operation. So was the vast mobilization of Israeli reser...
September 10, 2024 at 04:11
Really, it doesn't! Civil wars are wars, really. By all accounts. Chechnya wasn't sovereign state. So aren't the Kurds and a multitude of other people...
September 09, 2024 at 04:35
If you offered arguments, you didn't offer evidence. And your argument is like saying that all Americans support the Democrats, because they are in po...
September 09, 2024 at 04:29
Again with your thinking that Palestine = Hamas.
September 08, 2024 at 19:49
Being objective isn't both sideism. For example in WW2 you can surely question about the Allied terror-bombings, but that simply doesn't compare with ...
September 08, 2024 at 19:39
So only one of four doesn't want to commit suicide? Really? If so, then the "Palestinian problem" would solve itself in no time with a huge stream of ...

Pain isn't a constant and it isn't just something physical that the nervous system tells from our body. It's what we feel it to be. Heck, even boredom...
September 06, 2024 at 20:39
There's the narrative that propaganda tells. Then there's reality and understanding the realities. But if you think that every Palestinians craves to ...
September 06, 2024 at 20:29
If you think that Palestinians are so insane that they don't have any touch to reality, then do think so.
September 06, 2024 at 20:16
Well, of course an interviewer can just ask the protesters what are they doing and why and leave then those who watch it to make their own conclusions...
September 06, 2024 at 20:13
...just like the interviewer with her own political bias. And I support Ukraine and am against the Russian invasion of that country and respect very t...
September 05, 2024 at 04:43
Are you serious? Look at the how tiny the place is and how many people live there. Add to the fact that what isn't allowed is the natural answer, a ha...
September 03, 2024 at 21:03
You read emails, they read peemails. Just as we, they try to be rational. That helps them to survive. Information like what is food, where is food and...
September 03, 2024 at 20:45
Clearly sympathizes? I recal them saying that Gaza is an evil city. And the Palestinians in Gaza are also guilty, because they voted (years ago) Hamas...
September 03, 2024 at 19:57
Then shouldn't they show the flag, march in step in what they believe? Hezbollah is different. It's been the Palestinians, PLO before Hamas, that has ...
September 03, 2024 at 17:50
National socialism surely was quite leftist, and hence the overwhelming vitriol against communism. Especially on the political left, competing ideolog...
September 03, 2024 at 17:25
Oh, there's even on PF members to whom communism and the ideas of Marx appeal. If we talk about Marxism-Leninism, the official ideology of the Soviet ...
September 02, 2024 at 11:42
It's naturally not an apology. But it was an admission that civilians were killed. But hardly they feel or have anything to apologize given the multip...
September 01, 2024 at 21:21
You understand it perfectly clear. The basic issue here is the negative self-reference. And that issue is similar in Gödel's incompleteness theorem an...
September 01, 2024 at 15:20
For me uncertainty refers to a situation where you don't have all the information, for example. This isn't the case. You can have all the information,...

If there is any logical equivalence, mathematical incompleteness (or undecidability) would be something equivalent to the problem in physics of the me...

When it comes to the history of Syria and Lebanon, the French have been major influencers. Just like the British had a role with Mandate Palestine pla...
August 30, 2024 at 17:09
Artificially kept down? Have you any knowledge of Lebanese or Syrian history and the state their in? Oh, it's just the US that has put them there (of ...

Never has anybody thought of "decisively defeating" its adversaries. What would that mean? Israel has already succeeded to make a peace deal with the ...
