I think he's not among us anymore. And people who think like him don't run the World. I mean really, how many people live like him, seriously? It's th...

Iran still capable of firing rockets at Israel? That doesn't sound good for Bibi. Fact is that Iran is a huge country. Israel is already starting to c...
Yep. When I googled images "ICE going after Latino people", I got this photo: https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/cf310c7693fad98d1ce32c7dace8d9aedfb8be87/...
Soon Nimitz will be in striking range of Iran, so there's going to be two carrier strike groups in the area. Plus the B-2 bombers at Diego Garcia, whi...

That's what I meant. It's a true political and philosophical question just where we draw the line of hate speech or inciting people to commit violence...
I think many government employees do realize how dysfunctional this administration is. It was surprising just how same the story was told during the l...
And that's not relevant to this scenario, where Israel has a nuclear deterrent and enjoys total military dominance over it's rivals. And intends to ke...
I don't know if it's true or just the ramblings of this administration, but.... But at least there seems to be hope that Stephen Miller went simply to...
It's the latter case. What I'm saying that especially with right-wing terrorism in the US, those who want it and promote it, understand that any consp...
Hopefully indeed, as that is a really foolish idea. Just look at the size of Iran. And unlike Iraq, it's a quite unified country and likely would put ...
Well, in the end Operation Peace for Galilee wasn't a huge success as in the end it created Hezbollah in Lebanon and Israel had to withdraw from Leban...
That was just a month ago what you said, @"NOS4A2". Well, seems like it's very close that we indeed get a Trump war, now with Iran that was started by...
Argentina claimed the Malvinas, invaded it and then fought for them with the Argentinian forces finally surrendering to the British. That's a defeat, ...
No. As I said, if you shoot a man that didn't shoot you, you simply need a lot explaining to do to the judge, because you will be the one that shot. A...
Thank you for one of the best replies I've ever gotten in this Forum. It's really great when somebody understands my points. Here are some comments th...
This is about the Eagle S incident from last December. Basically the police inquiry has ended with charges laid towards the crew members. Law takes it...
After they have been bombed by foreign state, why would Iranians start killing each other? Or will they say that they endured most that arch enemy cou...
Are political assassinations in Minnesota, the killing of Melissa Hortman and her husband and the attempt on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife a...
I don't have to imagine that. I'm Finn and living next to Russia. My summer place is literally less than 10 km from the border of Russia. No matter ho...
That's not the contrary. What you were told is that they would never go to war. That it indeed would be impossible, because "it would be irrational an...
Yep. Hopefully Iran won't enlargen the conflict by closing the straight of Hormuz. This would put oil prices skyrocketing and force Trump to go to a f...
Now it's about combat survivability of the Iranian missile launchers and armament production as this becomes a battle of attrition. In the end it's ha...
I think it's just simply.... lovely. The tankers and IFV crews are waving at the people, some are chewing bubble gum. Some salute the commander-in-chi...
Lol. Trump has never fought the Israeli lobby. What a bullshit lie. Like when campaigning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Moh4StQ6n4 Yet unlike prev...
Likely they just want to bomb it back to the 1980's. They'll surely go for the (oil) infrastructure after they have finished with the nuclear weapons ...
Illegal immigrants usually get caught when attempting to enter the US. As everybody knows how hostile Trump is to immigration, the illegal immigration...
After this, it should be very obvious that the US isn't what it was before. It's far more worse than a country like Hungary with Orban. If this is the...
First thing about this war, which should be obvious to everybody: Israel and Iran are separated by a long distance and thus there is no ability for th...
This is the reality we live in. Just remember that according Putin and Russia, Russia is at war with NATO. To the Russians, best defense is active off...
Did I say that? Nope, but the usual strawman argument from you. I think the real question is the enthusiasm Trump wants to federalize the National Gua...
The micromanagement of the universities is indeed breathtaking. Now I get it, when there's an institution, as we also have, as something like the "Min...
Oh, this is what basically Trump and the MAGA voters have drooled about for a long time: having riot police and the army cracking down on immigrant pr...
Finally, Trump is getting his riots. He has wanted this so much. And just where he wants them most, in pinko liberal California with an annoying gover...
I think the use of tactical nuclear weapons is only going to be used if somehow the Russian front is in such a dire position that it could collapse. O...
It's just wonderful that after everything Elon is now going after Trump. What better than two annoying assholes going at each other. (Of course, the s...

There's actually a long thread about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies that was started seven years ago here: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/245...
I didn't know this. Thank you! The idea is that computers (or Turing Machines) follow algorithms. An algorithm is a procedure used for solving a probl...
I think that here really lies some awesome axiom that is simply missing from our philosophical and mathematical vocabulary. Once we know that axiom, e...
