Powered Exoskeletons In The Near Future?
PhReaKyDMoNKeY writes "Discover Magazine's latest issue has a story about powered exoskeletons and how they aren't terribly far off. Sounds pretty damn cool, except maybe for the centaur flatbed model. Screw a Segway, gimme one of these babies."
that i would be first post, but i was wrong.

Wow! I can't believe I just took the most violent shit in my life and it was the largest shit I ever took in one sitting!
The shit consisted at first of a very large piece of turd that was painful to pass. This was followed by a moderately sized shit that was easy to pass. Then came about 6 or 7 smaller turds, but still large compared to other shits I have taken. The smell was difficult to handle, and needed a long and thorough spray of air freshener. The wipe was messy. But cleaner than some of the other shits I have taken!
My anus still hurts from passing all the excrement so I am sitting on a pillow resting on my left ass cheek. I rate this turd a.....10!!!
See subject.

Do you even know what genocide is? There is no systematic attempt to *wipe out the Palestinian people* by Israelis. There are more Palestinians alive today than at any time in history. If you want to understand genocide, mr anonymous coward, go read "The Last of the Just" by Andre Schwarz Bart. You might, if you have the wit to understand the words, learn what real horror is.
How come you mention US atrocities and Israeli atrocities but have not a single word to say about atrocities in Algeria, Morocco and Jordan, to name but three countries? If you're going to blether about police states in the Middle East and repression, how about a word or two from you about Syria, Iraq and Iran? Which Middle Eastern country besides Israel has a democracy in which parties actually leave power and are replaced by other parties? How about a discussion of racist laws in the UAE? How about a discussion of the oppression of Afghan women? Why are you so keen to give Israel and the US a hard time when there are so *many* tremendous wrongs being committed by all these *other* governments in the Middle East? How about a discussion of funding of the PA by Arab states vis a vis funding of Hamas and Hizbollah (hint: lots of cash went to the latter, destabilising the former)? How about the fact that you will find the most horrendous antisemitic descriptions in Arab media across the Middle East, caricaturing Jews in exactly the same terms as used by the Nazis (indeed, often lifting material from Nazi-supported publications such as Der Sturmer)? Did you know that during Ramadan last year, Arab TV stations across the region screened a 30-part series entitled "Horseman without a Horse", based on the Protocols of the Elders of Zion? Can you even begin to imagine the response were an Israeli TV station to broadcast something remotely as offensive?
Your belief in the viciousness of Israel and the US as compared with the purity of its victims is not supported by the evidence. Next time you want to help some victims of an occupation out, surprise yourself and go to the Western Sahara. While you're there, you'll be able to find:
-- a victimised people living in refugee camps in other countries (the Sahrawis in Algeria)
-- a state violating UN resolutions ('75 as opposed to '67, I grant you)
-- extensive US support for that state including military aid and grants
-- a post-colonial history that partly created the mess in the first place (Spain rather than Britain in this case)
-- and a world that cares a hell of a lot less about what happens there than it does about what happens in Israel. So put *that* in your pipe and smoke it.
