That's actually quite easy: Sayyid Qutb...was an Egyptian author, Islamist, and the leading intellectual of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in the 1950s and '60s. In the West Qutb is known for his intense dislike of the United States and is sometimes described as "the man whose ideas would...

- First of all we do give them money but we don't protect them, no american has ever been killed defending Israel. - Israel had to give up the entire Sinai that they had won in a war in exchange for a piece of paper from Egypt and American aid. The US aid to both Israel and Egypt was part of...

Public oversight, government watchdogs, elections etc, at least in democratic societies. Duh! Nothing is perfect of course, least of all governments and bureaucrats but people and businesses when left unregulated tend to do pretty foolish things - run red lights, cut corners on safety...

the whole idea of regulations is to prevent people and businesses from doing foolish things that end up hurting themselves and others. Duh!

Islamic extremists have threatened to target Sir Paul McCartney with suicide squad for agreeing to play his first concert in Israel, a media report said today. Omar Bakri, a Syrian-born cleric, said McCartney's decision to take part in the Jewish states 60th anniversary celebrations had made...

LOL, is that the best you can do to justify the invasion and occupation of Georgia that you people support? You claimed you supported it because Georgia committed genocide (or so Putin told useful idiots). Now that cretins who believed Putin have become a laughing stock of the planet they try to...

What a surprise. Of course you all are. You people are all Hezbollah, you are all Al-Qaeda, you're all Hamas, you are all Taliban, you side with Chavez, Ahmadinejad, Assad and Castro, you support and defend every anti-american idiot anywhere in the world no matter how despicable his...

Well, what I see in this thread is that common hackers (criminals that they are) are accused of being terrorists just because they happen to be Israelis. Of course given that this particular smear is coming from a left-wing radical idiot there does not appear to be any outrage from his left wing...

Lol, an Israeli hacker is a terrorist, an organized group of hackers is an Israeli terror cell... TT2, do they actually provide internet access to patients in Canadian psychatric hospitals?

A Pakistani legislator defended a decision by southwestern tribesmen to bury five women alive because they wanted to choose their own husbands, telling stunned members of parliament this week to spare him their outrage. "These are centuries-old traditions and I will continue to defend them,"...

I condemned all sides, equally. Go back and re-read. ... America green-lighted Saddam to invade Kuwait. ... Russia, in this instance, had the moral high ground. LOL, does it sound like equal condemnation? I just love this nonsense, Saddam invades Kuwait, the war to liberate Kuwait...

that's not how it would play out. The separatists would win a referendum, the government would veto it using this new law, if the separatist region declares a war on the rest of Canada and starts ethnic cleansing of the english speaking residents of the province the way the Ossetians did when...

Likening the will of 30,000 ethnic and territorially distinct people to a gaggle of 5 that share the same trailer-park. Nonsensical. And where do you draw the line? What if a trailer-park declares that it's no longer part of Texas but is instead an independent state (or country). What if...

The Quebec separatists lost the referendum so there was no reason to send troops, who knows what would have happened if they actually got a majority of votes. At any rate, I was not discussing the appropriateness of Georgia's action, it's a matter of a separate thread, let me just mention...

South Osseta voted 95% in favor of secession from Georgia (twice). The International "Community" rejected those results And my family voted unanimously in favor of secession from the US. But the international community rejected those results. Seriously though, not all things are decided by...

Even pro-Establishment Wiki admits South Ossetia is a de-facto independent state. I am not aware of any country or international organization on the planet that recognizes its independence. Even Russia did not at the time of the conflict (they do now) They fought a war of independence...

Georgia attacked Ossetia first And what does it have to do with Russia when Ossetia is part of Georgia? (killed 2000 civilians)... LOL, soviet/russian leaders change, useful idiots don't. The Moscow Times Tuesday, August 26, 2008 An official from the Investigative Committee of...

True. Too bad quite a lot of posters conveniently "forget" about it when it comes to the policies and interests of the Western World. They are perpetually enraged, hysterical, self-righteous and moralistic when discussing the policies and interests of the US, Israel and the West, they take the...

Hmm, as if Russia is not doing it already. Iraq had a ton of russian weapons (and hundreds of military advisers) when we invaded it, the Syrian nuclear site that Israel bombed less then a year ago was protected by a russian-made air defense system, of course Israel easily disabled it but...

Did you think Scott Ritter was pure? When was he pure, when he said this "since 1998 Iraq has been fundamentally disarmed:" or when he said this: "I think the danger right now is that without effective inspections, without effective monitoring, Iraq can in a very short period of time...
