    Ever heard of the pope and the crusades? You might answer your own question by reading all pope related wikileaks papers...and the new crusade being planned.

    I'm actually serious. I would be interested if there really is something like this.

    You don't have to be afraid of your neighbors, even if they are are from Pakistan.

    But, I watch the news! I'm scared shitless of everyone!

    Why is it that every time some crazy fucker blows up himself and a whole bunch of innocent people he turns out to be a Muslim. Coincidence?

    Why is it every time some crazy fucker blows up everyone at a wedding using remote-controlled bombs he turns out to be American. Coincidence?

    You have a UID of 137, and you've posted the dumbest thing I've ever read on the internet.

    Your argument is "You can't trust the government! You can't trust the media! Trust me and my hyperlinks! Also, meditate!".

    Actually, yours is about the dumbest thing I have ever read. His advice is good. Whatever you may think of his conclusions about terrorism, spend time meditating instead of watching the bullshit that is the mainstream news. When you spend a year or so away from television and then look at it again, you will think "why did I ever watch this shit?!"

  5. Re:What about Colonel Green? on Genghis Khan, History's Greenest Conqueror · · Score: 1

    Granted, he killed slightly less than Khan, but now that he has Lincoln and Surak to back him up...

    What? Lincoln and Surak fought against Colonel Green. Hand in your geek card, now!

    So, did Genghis or Genghis or any other Mongol contemporary use the Roman alphabet?

    I don't think we need to bring Sting into this

    Especially if he's put into a movie. Then, he will just be killed in some horribly violent and dramatic way.

    Ah, now for the Good Old Days of East Germany and the STASI! I think, if they were still alive, Honecker and Mielke would each have blown a batch in their pants over what we can do today in the Good Ol' US of A.

  9. Re:Adaptation and Propaganda on New Mega-Leak Reveals Middle East Peace Process · · Score: 4, Interesting

    How long before the world's secret services adapt to the "megaleak" phenomenon, and start using it as a tool to spread propaganda?

    What do you mean "start"? False flag and disinformation campaigns have been a staple of foreign policy for at least as long as recorded history.

  11. Re:Assange'e ego on Wikileaks Movie Coming To the Big Screen · · Score: 1

    But when I actually listen to him speak he strikes me as a level headed guy. Don't listen to what he says (or how he says it). Watch what he does (and doesn't do). Note the number of former associates/co-workers who've shared his stated purpose but found themselves highly annoyed by his condescending behavior towards them. Note his comments about how the papers he's giving the stolen documents to have to release them according to his plans, because "he owns them." He's all about him.

    47% of American Households didn't pay any income tax for 2009.

    That's because they make too little money, dumbass. I'd rather have my income along with my tax rate than have 0% taxes with their income. Maybe you should ask yourself "why are so many people so poor?" But then, you probably think they deserve it.

  14. Re:Inertia on 60% of AOL's Profits Come From Misinformed Customers · · Score: 4, Insightful

    So, essentially the bottom line of AOL is bolstered by "inertia"?

    Works for the RIAA. Actually, truth be told, this is how a lot of out-dated behemoths stay in business.

    the Chinese started to brag about how they where clearly more educated and hard working and superior to the western people because they got all the companies, technology, economy and whatever

    Yeah, just like the Europeans were inherently superior, or the Japanese were inherently superior, or the American Way Of Life(TM) was superior. Now, the Chinese are on their way to being the biggest assholes on the planet. How fun that we can all wind up sharing something in common ^_^

    Yeah, but now we'll have to look for a new nerdy injoke that is the equivalent of "When hell freezes over".

    Americans admire Barack Obama, George Bush, and Bill Clinton more than Nelson Mandela. That is a sad commentary on America. Neither of the former faced true adversity like Nelson Mandela.

    You don't consider being married to Hillary Clinton "true adversity"?

    WTF is the Lipsi? The only thing Wikipedia has under this title is a Greek island.

    Sorry, it's not on the English Wikipedia, though it is on the German Wikipedia. Actually, the only English link I can find relating to it is here. It was a dance (named after Leipzig) produced by the DDR government that was devoid of all the evil, decadent Capitalist influences, like rock-and-roll.

    Haven't you been listening to the source of all "truth", Fox News? Obama is so far left that's he's completely off the map, looney Communist nutjob?

    I thought he was a fundamentalist Kenyan Muslim who wants to institute Sharia law in the United States. It's so hard to keep up with the sheer, unadulterated evil that is Obama.
