Iran is ripe for revolution.

Takes courage to protest there. Miles and miles of courage.

I have heard some Iranians are hoping Israel/US attack Iran. Unlike Hamas that reflect the will of the people and have the support of the people Iranians are jonesing for a new regime and freedoms. Unintended consequences but there is a chance for far…[Read more]

Agreed Robert.

The lefties who say they love Palestinians are their worst enemies. The lefties and Islamists have their ridiculous narratives that confirm and encourage the innocent children born into a horrific cult to glorify the murder of Jews and the intolerable circumstances of having a Jewish state in their make believe never was nation.…[Read more]

Embarrassing takes by Hitchens. He should have been influenced by his mother and family.

Hitchens makes an assumption lacking evidence. IT IS ARAB LAND says he. How so? It was Jewish. That is indisputable unless you are a muslim or exteme lefty. Here is meta on the history. ”

“The land that was once Judea and Israel has had various owners and…[Read more]

Just started to browse Jerusalem Post and wullah, more of the same pro Hamas media BS. Gullible people who may be unseen are influenced by the media to believe the religion of jew hate.

Enco the Chinese were way ahead of Europe until they were strangled by Confusionism. Is that a word? You know the guy. It was another sleep of reason and the masses going along with the current. I think it was known as the star fleet. And it was well before Magellan and Vasco de Gama et al. They knew about scurvy. They had a ship in the fleet that…[Read more]

It is a horrible way to be conflicted. Are you, the queer for Palestine, going to be faithful to your religion of Jew hatred or are you going to be real about what they would do to you?

Sick fucking world. Sleep of reason and all of that jazz.

Enco,

I read about the history of China a long time ago. So i am more than a little shaky. But Chiang Kai Shek who we supported of course but many Chinese did not because they got shit from the communists and Mao’s forces had a bloody war killing some 2 million Chinese. And you have to examine antecedents before jumping to conclusions.

Has…[Read more]

Just a few things.

The notion of Palestinians as an ancient people is false. Ancestry is from all over the Levant. Some who are known as Palestinians lived in and around Israel for centuries. Same for Jews. Others came there during British Mandate to work. There was a newspaper founded in 1932 in what was to become Israel. The Palestine Post. In…[Read more]

Re the ‘starting point’ comment. This seems absurd to me, having been born and brought up in Europe, in a country that has thousands of years of history both good and bad.  History moves in waves, each ‘starting point’ having been triggered by earlier event crescendoes. You can’t just pick a reference point in history and call it the ‘starting…[Read more]

Unseen,

You are wrong on so many counts it is incredible. But you are not baiting me into it. No way. Honest brokers of opinions only. But you just keep reading and listening to garbage sources. Make sure you never have a thought of your own.

What a beautiful little girl and what a tragic life. Horror in living color. I just read accounts of Thai workers who were murdered by Hamas. Fucking horrifying how they cut their heads off with knives.

So you are young and naive. You were never taught critical thinking and you have classical liberal sentiments. (I do as well) Those professors…[Read more]

Enco, i was not thinking of the communist rev. in China. Could be any place. But your take is a gross oversimplification. I oppose doctinaire thinking. Unfortunately we see the overwhelming numbers married to their ideology and incapable of analyzing their betrothed. Regurgitation of political rhetoric is the outer limit for the masses.…[Read more]

Enco,

I inadvertently wrote capitalism when i intended communism in relation to a dalliance.

So yeah communism has proven itself to be abhorrent. However and let me be concrete. Lets assume a famine, a bloody revolution. People starving to death and eating corpses. That happened during the Chinese revolution in fact. THAT may be the time to…[Read more]

“I’ll never understand the christian logic of hating Jews because they turned hay-zeus over for execution. Let’s set asides the lack of evidence of any of this, beyond accounts written in Koine Greek by cultists 40 years later. Did they not require a human sacrifice to be “saved”? They should be thanking the Jews for delivering god to himself…[Read more]

The following article is short and worth noting. Quoting from article, on Good Morning Britain “During a segment on the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, attended by King Charles, presenter Ranvir Singh stated: “Six million people were killed in concentration camps during the Second World War, as well as millions of others because t…[Read more]

Enco i made it through about half of Das Kapital. Not fun reading!

I am not in any way endorsing communism. Only saying that there are phases in which fledgling nations in exigent circumstances are or may be better served by a dalliance with capitalism than say a fucking ruthless dictator. Imposing from without and having no regard for the people…[Read more]

I think the contemporary political rhetoric was roughly we can fight them over there or over here. And then there was the domino theory. Consistent with US foreign policy we chose to fight em there and never seemed to care if it was some ruthless dictator we supported. Anything to oppose communism. But maybe a transitional phase involving…[Read more]

It seems we have stumbled on drugs that have been repurposed. By accident as opposed to the targeting of drugs that address other medical issues that AI can achieve. And i assume it is the same with the advantages AI has in radiology as a result of the aforementioned speedy pattern recognition. And apparently there is a new AI assisted medical…[Read more]

Agreed Reg.

Imagine hospice and despair followed by resignation. And then…!

I posted an article about a start up in Israel. The founder has a kid with autism and there were so few medications developed in last few decades he took matters into own hands in what sounds like sci fi.

Ultimately urine cells are converted into neurons on a chip…[Read more]

Robert, i did not skim. Read it. Understood it.

Only took issue with the notion that trans agenda had egalitarian motives. Superficially? Definitely.

Probably true of some other related movements as well. It is not authentic egalitarianism when villifying an oppressed group by another oppressed group. It is not authentic when one quarter of the…[Read more]
