I'm a racist for pointing out the non-PC reality of that region. Come on! I don't think these people are any less than myself, they just do things differently. You're the one trying to tell me that fighting for dominance is a bad thing. I'm just saying, let them do it their own way.
Would a communist who pointed out the anger and wasted funds generated by US presidential campaigns was a waste of resources be considered a racist?
Why not just let the peoples fight it out for dominance? I mean, that's what is happening in Iraq right now. Seems to be the only way to get a stable government in a region. Arrogant Westerners thought they had to 'civilize' these regions and force their own systems upon those regions. Doesn't seem to have worked well. We don't have to remake all cultures in our own image. When you conquer a people as the Western nations did in the middle-east, and then give some of that conquered land to a group that the majority in the region dislike, what did they think was going to happen?
Why couldn't the US just give the Jews a chunk of Utah? Our own Native American reservations are on the shittiest land, certainly not the fertile and beautiful land that those peoples had been dwelling on when we forced them out. Utah is pretty similar in climate, and the US isn't full of people of a religion that hates Jews. Back then the animosity between the religions was well known. Seems like they were asking for trouble setting that country up right on the fairy tale spot. Well, they got the trouble they asked for.
I see the formation of Israel as a foolish and arrogant plan executed with ignorance of the regions being manipulated. Now it has caused so many problems, I just can't care about anyone in that region, but I feel guilt for it because my peoples put that mess into place. Even out the aid, and let them duke it out. Seems to be the way authority is gotten in that region.
I'd be some kind of hypocritical retard if I didn't also believe that Jordan, Syria, Iraq, etc... should not have been created either. I mean, look how well Iraq has hung together once the dictatorship is gone. All those nations poorly cobbled together don't work without a very strong authoritarian government. Take that away and they revert to their traditional social groupings.
Zealousness. Except, the zealots are the ones who are dwelling on their 'holy land' and stealing land from other nations. 1967, Israel wouldn't return the land they took because "Egypt couldn't hold it." Cute huh? Especially when many cultures over thousands of years had run the Hebrews right out of their 'holy land'.
Sorry, they don't deserve the handout in the form of a nation. They certainly don't deserve 4 Billion American Dollars a year.
You're cute. The people who lived in that area were given an offer they couldn't refuse by the western nations who had conquered those lands. Now these same people are 'bad' because they are trying to re-conquer what was taken from them and turned into Israel?
Moral relativism...
My Texas/Mexico analogy isn't perfect, I realize that.
I crunched my 98 VW last year and bought another of the same model/year/trim because I already have a ton of parts, tools and knowledge about that car. I can R&R the cylinder head in like 3 hours, and I know all the weak points and what to look for.
120k miles and going strong. Just need to replace the timing gear tensioners some day.
When we stole Texas from the Mexicans, we did it hard and fast and we held it on our own. The residents evicted from the land Israel now occupies seem to be a bit more determined than the Mexicans!
I loved Tale of Two Cities and I usually re-read it every 2 years or so and I never had to read it in school. The very descriptive style really puts me into the time about which Dickens was writing. Action is great, but sometimes you just want to really 'be there'.
Because his work in Iraq isn't protecting any of my rights. Perhaps in another, just, conflict he will be putting his life on the line to protect my rights to whine. He and his organization aren't protecting my rights by fucking with the Iraqis, just in case that was what you were insinuating.
I can ask for help from my team, but we all have our own tasks to perform. Nobody likes a coworker who is used to working things out as a group, because there is rarely time to do that. We were hired to be self-starters. Maybe it's different where you are.
Cost of maintenance/repair for 3 years vs. cost of new platform + app migration. Eat the support costs. Factor in the increased performance the new platform may provide. Wave hands around and shake the 8-ball.
That is understandable, you take the cynical view. I do the same. Still, it seems that keeping nukes around but telling other nations they can't have nukes is more of an issue and more real than your predicted future.
It's not like a government would lie and keep a few around anyway. Or keep the tech and materials around. The same incentives that inspire Iran and North Korea to flout Nuke-treaties apply to the US government too.
It'd be nice to stand up and at least pretend to take a few steps back from the brink.
What is the mechanism by which a monopoly on, say, telephone service, won't stay a monopoly if it does not represent a 'win for the customers'? The customers do not have any other options. Are you suggesting that citizens for-go telephone service in an attempt to lure some other telephone provider into town?
I see. Rather than have government draw a line in the sand as to acceptable pollution levels, we should let business just spew crap and hope that enough citizens get together and bankroll a bid against the well-funded legal teams of the polluting businesses? Historically, that doesn't work. It took gov't regulation to get lead out of gasoline, private suits could not do it.
Ever heard of a monopoly? Ever heard of dumping of pollutants into the environment? The corporations cannot force me to act, but without government oversight, it can impose its will on me.
If the US keeps nukes, we should shut the fuck up about anyone else getting nukes. Hell, we should give every nation their own nukes and delivery system. MAD you know. That's the only use for nukes, so you might as well do it right.
Since the US will never do that, I think we should get rid of ours. Seems our real threats are goat-herders with 50-year-old tech and more stomach for the fight than the nation that took it to their homeland.
Don't need nukes for that, we need high tech weapons to pick out the terrorists from civilian populations.
Hell, a 80-year-old grandmother was killed dead because the cops could just bust in with no warning and start shooting. Too bad the scum got the wrong fucking house. Makes me sick.

This whole article smells of hype...
Surely that extra debt has affected our deficit, right?
Every facebook app seems to be one four basic apps with tweaked graphics and settings.

Just give the stuff they didn't earn back to the existing residents. That would be, the land gifted by the west.

Just think, a double whammy of a war.

In my experience, you don't get much. Seems like you couldn't handle the course.
Well, if I were earning $15 a month, I'd rather live in Cuba than in the USA. Healthcare-wise anyway. Plus, the weather is great.

At least, that's how I do it.
Living on the side of a hill means I have had to add drainage and a small pump to prevent water intrusion.
I am quite confident that the majority of citizens and ESPECIALLY the leadership, do not want to blow themselves up.

I'll borrow a link from another poster that is better than the one I had.
