  1. The superiority of the Catholic religion over business is that Catholic religion reveals instead of hiding what is behind and cause wasteful hyperactivity (i.e. business).
  2. WWII was not presented as a police operation though.
  3. The deadlock will be broken by Iran.
  4. For all that concerns Israel's security, Iran's point of view on Israel is what matters.
  5. It's a narrow reasoning since saving millions of lives is merely prolonging mankind's inhumanity.
  6. I never respond with questions though because I expect no answers.
  7. ...not relevant for this topic for sure.
  8. You have certainly shown, and with alarming ease, that Ignatieff is way more terrifying than terrorists.
  9. The problem is that Jews and Muslims share the same conception of justice: the infamous lex taliionis.
  10. Ignatieff posing as moral philosoher! He is ridiculous!
  11. You don't seem to know the meaning of "narrow".
  12. Do you need also a quote about Ignatieff presenting human rights as idolatry!?
  13. Ignatieff is writing and after making excuses about what he wrote.
  14. How opportunist is it on the part of Ignatieff!?
  15. Bottom line: it is Ignatieff who makes the claim that he will be a good PM.
  16. "...if torture and coercion are both as useless as critics pretend, why are they used so much? While some abuse and outright torture can be attributed to individual sadism, poor supervision and so on, it must be the case that other acts of torture occur because interrogators believe, in good faith, that torture is the only way to extract information in a timely fashion. It must also be the case that if experienced interrogators come to this conclusion, they do so on the basis of experience. The argument that torture and coercion do not work is contradicted by the dire frequency with which both practices occur." Michael Ignatieff, "If torture works…", Prospect, April 2006
  17. In the end Ignatieff should know that lesser evil is still evil.
  18. Do you recall Ignatieff writing about human rights as idolatry!?
  19. Israel, for the media, represents easily accessible blood with which they can frame public discussions and abuse their power.
  20. Also, concerning natural resources, an honest government will not speak of revenue neutrality but of maximizing royalties.
  21. Jews feel an urgency to be at a save distance from one another, it's this gap that appears as self-righteous colonization to others.
