  1. Your citation to "1946" gives your views away. Thank you. You don't think Israel should exist at all obviously.
  2. His assassination would have made you happy I guess?
  3. Did it occur to you that ".Americans, Israelis, Brits, Aussies, Germans, Dutch and even some Russians" may, according to some posters, be "raping and plundering" in disaster areas? </sarcasm>
  4. More spam and slogans. "Raping and plundering"? "Countless vicious war crimes"? Do you think in slogans?
  5. I am not going to respond point by point to this and the remainder of the incoherent posts. But can you spell out what "murder and mayhem" to which you are referring? Why would Canada and the U.S. be interested in wasting away innocent people for no reason?
  6. Now there is yet another incident to throw into the stirring pot. In Washington State, two hard-working teens were shoplifting beer. They threw the beer at an employee that confronted them. The police then shot and wounded the striving teens. Hundreds are demanding justice.Hundreds protest Washington police shooting of 2 unarmed men (link)
  7. They did better for NL's fisheries? Just sayin'. Proportional has some surface appeal, until you wind up splitting into around 10-20 parties. Then you get an "Israeli" result where a right-wing (or that matter left-wing) lead party can cobble together a coalition with some truly marginal or even dangerous types to govern. Imagine say the CPC using a lone "Rhinoceros Party" MP to round out a coalition?
  8. See international law and what the international community sees as illegal occupation and settlements.Can I get a straight answer to a simple question?
  9. So now that Jews are winning it's necessary to hold them back? Maybe not so much when Nazis or Palestinian Arabs were winning.
  10. OK, what land in the Levant controlled by the Jews is not stolen in your book?
  11. Muslims have forced gender-segregated swimming pool hours in UK and Calgary.
  12. Mostly, he committed the crime on U.S. soil, and not a military base. There were no grounds for a military trial.
  13. I do not believe that those beliefs need to or should be accommodated. It is their choice to take a public flight. As Jews, we believe in obeying local law. That includes custom incorporated into the smooth operation of public life. This kind of behavior brings disrepute on us.
  14. Dhimmitude is peace and equality?
  15. Another cosmic wimp-out,
  16. I think there is nothing wrong with pride in one's religion or national heritage.
  17. What proof do you have that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was tortured? Just making scurrilous, overblown and hyperbolas accusations don't make them true. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was tried in a U.S. civilian District Court and not in a military court. Either you know that and are deliberately misstating or are making statements before checking them out. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in not being held on Guantanamo. And the U.S. hardly stole Guantanamo from Cuba. The U.S. drove the Spaniards out and promptly gave Cuba its independence. They retained a base. That is not "stealing" land. What is? A trial by jury where the Defendant admits his part in the bombing.
  18. Posts like these cannot be taken seriously. I sure don't.
  19. I guess Americans have a variety of opinions. :/I doubt many felt different here. What he had going against him was that his guilt is admitted and thus beyond the shadow of a doubt. While juries are supposed to apply a reasonable doubt standard my view is that in capital cases they go further, to "shadow of a doubt."
  20. So what you're saying is that we should craft policies to soothe the emotions of the crazed?
  21. Can you disprove it? More importantly can you disprove its ethical lessons?
  22. There was reality to those. The others were racist and fictive.
  23. Clogs toilets. We tried it and wound up with a visit from a plumber. And you cannot use a plunger in a low flush toilet.
  24. It's a really shi**y problem, we all agree. Why don't you experiment to find out.
