I think you'll find most European nations (and nations who were settled by Europeans) to be far more gender neutral
Islamic immigration is changing all of that.
Jews: Have the right to a homeland So do the Palestinians. How about Jordan?
Failing that, Israel has proposed two states. The Palestinians can't bear the thought of legitimising a Jewish state. Therein lies the problem.
Jews: Leading contributors to cutting-edge science and technology. Gates, Jobs, Torvalds, all Jews? Where do you come up with all this rank bullshit? Where did you learn how to debate?
I'm a Muslim and my lunch break is almost over so I can't really write as long of a post as I wanted. And you wasted valuable lunch-break writing that paragraph.
The solutions presented by both sides so far are ridiculous: a) Throw them in the sea (Palestinian solution) b) Exterminate them (Israeli solution)
You've correctly enunciated the Arab agenda since before 1948.
However, your accusation against Israel is unfounded. If Israel wanted to wipe them all out, it could do it in seconds. They haven't, so your argument is little more than propaganda.
Jordan killed more Palestinians in a week during the seventies, than Israel have in the last 60 years.
Either you are not telling the truth, or Israel isn't trying hard enough.
It would be nice if you could base your views on some facts, rather than what you have heard.
The Islamists, have openly stated their aim to kill all of the Jews. Read the Hamas Charter, and tell me which bit of that is unclear.
Meanwhile, any number of other poor countries, who don't receive billions in aid like the Palestinians, also don't resort to suicide bombing - a crime against humanity - because they lack the Islamic indoctrination.
There are no Tibetan suicide bombers. There are no Ethiopian suicide bombers. Sub-Saharan Africa doesn't have daily television inciting young African children to blow themselves up. Palestinian Children are brought up on it.
You have completely whitewashed the Islamic background to this form of terrorism. The proof? Christian Palestinians don't blow themselves up. Ever.

Personally, I would rather have egg on my face than blood.
I daresay, had they not said anything, and it turned out they were terrorists, there would be people jumping up and down and calling the passengers "stupid" for not noticing.
Traveling moderately with laptops, mine have had a life expectancy of about 1 year.
I'm guessing yours weren't Macs?
Mine (G4 17" Powerbook) has been dropped plenty and outlasted all of my Windows laptops by a mile. I think I'm fairly objective in the whole Mac/Windows holy war, as I frequently use both.
How is this GPS device going to receive a signal through several feet of cow Well, that's easy. You just make every tenth cow swallow a repeater and a signal amplifier.
what's going to power it? Attached to the device, is a long cord, which will hang out of the cow's mouth (or in some circumstances, the other end). You just plug 'em in each night.

A suicide bomber is merely a poor country's F-16.
What a catchy, yet spectacularly naive comment.
The Islamists, have openly stated their aim to kill all of the Jews. Read the Hamas Charter, and tell me which bit of that is unclear.
Meanwhile, any number of other poor countries, who don't receive billions in aid like the Palestinians, also don't resort to suicide bombing - a crime against humanity - because they lack the Islamic indoctrination.

Hwhip. It's pronounced Hwhip.
Yeah, but he doesn't get to look up Grandma's skirt.
That would have been awesome.
I can just imagine him blowing up a bunch of Daleks, then winking at Davros and saying "Doctor Who".
Like, exterminate.

Oh please. That was clearly a staged photo op by some douchebag journalist. I defy you to find five more examples. you won't find even two.
On the other hand, have a look at daily Palestinian television and see the sort of sick incitement of those children, to die for Allah.
Sure you had sympathy for the Israelis. Sure.
Why were they stupid?
Personally, I would rather have egg on my face than blood.
I daresay, had they not said anything, and it turned out they were terrorists, there would be people jumping up and down and calling the passengers "stupid" for not noticing.
Then you are clearly a cat-person.
Verning verning, collision de bork bork.
I prefer to call it sleeping in.
My God. I just tried reading at -5.
The horror.....
And what the hell is the GNAA anyway?
And try to use the letter O a lot.
Awww. Crap.

It looks like you're nuking a country. Would you like help?
I really really really don't want to know her taste in p0rn
You're new here, aren't you?

a message at Get Satisfaction says they're working on the problem
They've already done that.
I suspect they should start working on a solution...
When you are doing millions of financial calculations and [sic] hour, you need reliability and rock solid performance.
When you are posting to Slashdot however...
Thank you!
Even more amusingly, all the fools on this page talking (yes talking) about the ad campaign and what a failure it must have been.
No doubt they will tell their friends tomorrow...
I'm sure "America's Next Top Model" was a hit on radio... I can see why they knocked it off for television.
The big question is 'Who decides?'
Obviously you don't watch Fox News.

Attached to the device, is a long cord, which will hang out of the cow's mouth (or in some circumstances, the other end). You just plug 'em in each night.
I got that idea from an anorexic's how-to guide.
