Terrorists generally don't have access to C-4. At best they have access to Semtek. Which is quite a bit more likely to blow up due to concussion than C-4 and since they won't be using particularly stable detonators, they can get it to go off that way as well.
If they were bombing the palis with willy pete you'd know it for sure. There would be hundreds to thousands of people burned to death and thousands to tens of thousands of people with horrific burn tracks all over their skin. WP smoke and illumination shells are constructed very, very differently than WP bombs.
They would have to deal with Syria and Egypt at most currently, since we're interdicting Iran airstrikes vis a vis our occupation of Iraq. And those two they COULD kick the shit out of.
They owned the vast, vast majority of the land in the original mandate. It wasn't until their neighbors decided on some good old fashioned ethnic cleansing that they expanded their borders after they kicked the shit out of their opponents.
Interesting thing those death counts. If you look at the gender ratios, you see the difference between terrorism and war. The Israeli death count is statistically random between gender and age. The palestinian death count is very, very heavily biased towards palestinian males ages 13 and up. Historically, what's the age that barbaric societies consider 'adulthood' when it comes to things like combat? Right around 12-14. If the Israelis were truly just killing palestinians, than their kill count would look much more like the palestinians in composition.
You mean the bombed UN school that was where the palestinians were firing rockets from? Maybe if the UN wants to sponsor a school they should secure it from those who would use it for evil.
*blinks* From initial design to first flight, the A380 took 11 years. The 787 has taken 6. Moreover, Boeing was never stupid enough to use separate CAD versions in it's design of the plane, something that happened to the A380 because the German and French divisions of Airbus apparently ignored each other. Not to mention all the interesting electrical problems the 380 has been having.
Well, then there's the fact that without American food stocks and the poor growing seasons immediately following the eruption would cause worldwide famine, at least as things currently stand.
*headdesk* You do realize that the banking and mortgage system is one of the MOST regulated non-governmental industries in the country right? And that the entire housing crisis was predicated by government interference in bank loaning patterns. This caused the banks to look for a way to stop the cash loss, and when they discovered a trick that seemed to do so, they decided to use that for all of their loans and not just the ones the.gov interfered with.
In all fairness, the average actor in the new SW was probably better than in the old. That being said, the fact that Hayden Christiansen was out-acted by Mark Hamil was pretty sad(Hamil makes a pretty good voice actor, but damn he couldn't act).
True, but combine it with a strong encryption and once a certain amount of data is gone the result become unrecoverable even if the actual password is something as simple as 123.
Okay, now prove to me that the tree ring data prior to the 1960's stayed married to the actual temperature back farther than 1900. What's that? You can't? Well, doesn't that more or less invalidate all the tree ring data collected?
Most people who are on TV in a non-entirely fiction settings tend to be/become asshats. There would seem to be a correlation, if not an direct connection.
Well, no, rather the tree ring PROXIES didn't show any warming back then. Unfortunately for you, we know that tree ring data does not always correlate with actual temps. Thusly, you can't say one way or the other whether the MWP was worldwide.
Out of nothing? Have you seen the source code? Not to mention the fact that they deleted data, which you don't fucking do. Now, in the e-mails themselves, there's nothing conclusive, but there doesn't have to be. The hints that are there, combined with the source code of their models, and the fact that they 'lost' their data, means that you can't in good conscience rely upon any study of theirs in which they did not release all the data at the time of the study.
Combined with the fact that NASA and the NOAA continue to refuse to release their algorithms for the adjustment of their data and you no longer have any reliable tweaked data source. Just the completely raw numbers. Whatever the state of climate change actually is, whether the earth's warming or cooling and whether CO2 is the primary driver, is irrelevant, because the vast, vast majority of research on the subject just became invalid unless it purely used the raw data. Which most of them didn't.

"Palestine" was part of the Ottoman empire. Not a discrete legal entity.

Newtonian physics.
Attempting to parse Biden-speak is like trying to brute force 512-bit encryption.

Sooooo, a rational human being should believe that a god interested in human affairs exists?
And what about the fact that the Antarctic Ice is gaining more mass than it's losing each year?

Galileo was wrong on plenty of fronts. His ideas on comets were particularly funny.

Kerry was anti-war while IN the military.
Alan Kaufman, is that you?
