What is your evidence for this? He may well have "meant" it, but it's obviously not what was reported. Naturally, I'm sure you and your buddies at Townhall, being practised mind-readers, know precisely what he meant. Afterall, the man's Muslim, he is political foe of Israel, what else...

But most Arabs are clearly not Muslim radicals. Some may ally with muslim radicals in their struggle against Israel, but that doesn't necessarily make them radicals themselves, who would cut your or mine or Nik's throat for rejecting Islam. Israel is not only dispossessing radical...

So how does siding with Jews who are dispossessing Palestians help us -- or anybody -- in the struggle against radical Muslims?

Why do automatically assume the worst? Why cannot it be possible to take a principled approach, that takes into account people's desire to maximize their autonomy? It's as though you feel that if we allow that certain character traits are heredity, then boom, we start producing people in...

Isn't uranium enrichment necessary for producing nuclear energy? So is that evidence of a nuclear power program or a nucelar weapons program? Why shouldn't Iran be permitted nuclear power? Yes, they have oil, but why not power themselves with nuclear and sell the oil? Why should all of...

[/b] And yet they didn't. So what now? They have to grin and bear further dispossession? Lol, are you actually Jewish yourself? I'm just wondering, because Jews seem to do a tremendously good job of whipping up hysteria about the precariousness of their situation. The reality, of...

Firstly, for the same reason Saddam didn't: he didn't have any, and all the evidence indicates he had given up trying to acquire any. Secondly, America really isn't Iran's bet noir, Israel is. Everything I have read coming from the Iranian side says to me Iranians, despite being Muslims...

Whether or not Palestians are murderous maniacs is beside the point. No matter how pleasant or otherwise Palestians are, it doesn't justify what Israel does to them. It's that damn simple. Most absurd of alll, by far, is that non-Jewish Americans have allowed themselves to be duped into...

Hap, another war for Israel, that's all this is going to be. You really need to start reading something other than townhall or frontpage.

Well, good. That suggests that even though every single measure we have of intelligence -- IQ and educational achievement, even when holding for economic status -- unambiguously ranks blacks as 'dumber', by a whole standard deviation, such differences are, mercifully, not apparent in general...

I've never said it counts for everything. But why would art and love and eveyrthing that makes life rich and enjoyable simply disappear in a higher iq society? Realistically, mean iq wouldn't really be able to bumped up that much higher, anyway. But a shift from 100 to 110 would mean that the...

When it comes to athletics, I suppose the liberals lies about races are acceptable. Who cares, it's only sport anyway, right? The truth, of course, is that athletic ability is also largely genetically inherited, and therefore, since it is genetically inherited, it is going to be distributed...

What is it with liberals and anecdotes? As though one anecdote knocks out reams of hard data. Sheesh. Where did you grow up james? Among the working class, like I did? Would my anecdotes about the cruelity and the depravity I witnessed there, and never among the more well-to-dos I also...

Well, yes, it does seem reasonable to think so, doesn't it? It is often suggested that the cure for all of America's racial woes would be a few healthy rounds of miscegenation, and that way everyone come to be related to some of a different race, everyone would blend into everyone, and...

Why would you find it depressing? Not enough social problems for you to solve via endless ministrations? Interesting. Could it be that liberals don't even want to see the problems they endlessly moan about solved, because it would leave them with nothing to do?

And your words are probably true but they're entirely beside point. Who cares if a communist system could 'work' or not? The point is a society with more intelligent people in it is better for everyone, even for the highly unintelligent.

Yes. I've summarized those views earlier. I'd really like to hear why you diasgree with them. What I said was that in the presence of racial differences, cultural similarities are required to build a sense of unity. That doesn't mean that cultural differences are easy to overcome. So...

So is that an implicit admisssion that manual labor is only fit for deadheads? :) Such questions are inevitable in a society that values 'making it' above all else, and equates 'making it' with making lots of money. It doesn't have to be so. Living a good life can mean a lot more than...

It's not 'relative' dumbness that's the problem, it's 'absolute' dumbness. A person with an IQ of 65, who has trouble spelling his name is a person with an IQ of 65 who has trouble spelling his name no matter what the world around him is doing. And it's not just about IQ. Proclivity...

I said I was out of time, but it was more like I was out of energy. It's a demanding task, having to summarize extensive views into a few paragraphs, and a disheartening one, knowing that they will be scoffed at derisively by people who would rather bask in the glow of their self-righteousness...
