Well, I think it was the way that Olmert referenced the whole thing... He emphasized how Rice was embarrassed after working on the proposed text, and that it only took a telephone from him a few minutes before she was going to vote in favour - to make the US abstain from voting. That...

nitro, to me - morality stems from religious beliefs. I find moralizing something that is not appealing intellectually, and it tries to control freedom of thought as well as the social context, interactions. Ethics is different, as it stems from personal integrity - and not "something...

The REAL question is - what does that statement make you? It seems you define the world as "with you or against you" - and thus those not agreeing with you, as "your enemies." Simply weird, but commonly known as fanatic and extreme...

Ooops, sorry to rain on your parade. http://www.taybehbeer.com/

All genetic material leading up to this - and having names written on checks from the main scumbag - they could all be indicted? They surely contributed in some way. If someone believes that Bernard Madoff was alone in committing this huge criminal act - then they really must sleep well at...

That sounds like a really good idea! What about giving the palestinian fighting forces some more land so that they can get away from the civilian areas? As it stands now - Gaza is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. Almost like some sort of "camp"... The Jewish National...

Hehehe, "rational and objective"... ???? :p So - the "logic" employed here goes like: "Since the now executed dictator Saddam slaughtered thousands, and the US also killed hundreds of thousands ... then it is allright that the IDF kill thousands, even if it's 40% kids." That is just so...

That means that his closest family and friends are most probably crooks who were in on this scam. They should all be investigated as the (supposedly) scum that they are! Their ass(e[t]s) should all be seized and frozen. :mad:

The difference with Objectivism - is that they employ aggressive principles and the use of "disciplinary institutions" (see Michel Foucault)... as opposed to anarchocapitalism or some types of minarchism. Objectivism does not respect the right of full privacy or being free individuals - when...

Why do you think a lack of regulation creates a monopoly? You should take a different approach at understanding how monopolies are being made... and, if a provider is the best one - why shouldn't everyone want to go there for their purchasing? So - a monopoly is bad when one player is...

Objectivism holds that there are "universally absolute truths", just like in the Abrahamic religions. Objectivism defines their truth from a starting postulated axiom for the epistemology - which the rest of the theories are built upon. It is easily characterized by the aggressive stance...

I was going to mention Ben Stein as well - since he is a good "other side" to Bill Maher. Maher made the film "Religulous" - while Stein made the film "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed" - where they take opposite sides. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religulous...

Exactly. See these guys for instance and a good example: http://www.nkusa.org/ (Orthodox Jews against Zionism) Then we have the "not so nice guys" - Jewish Internet Defense Force - JDIF, who commit petty Internet crime and generally create a lot of confusion as part of their tactics...

That sounds like a recipe for perpetual war - or total annihilation. But that is what you guys would like, right? Since Jews have been fighting their "brothers" in the region for thousands of years, and still carries a grudge - so does the Arabs. It seems you and most others with your kind of...

Esq Esq Esq, (what are you a third generation lawyer or something?) were you visiting family in the Middle East? :p

You were changing the subject with regards to Israel being akin to an Apartheid state. Also, immigrant integration problems are evident everywhere in the world - nothing new there. That also goes for the social pattern of discriminating or exaggerated blaming of "foreigners" for various problems...

Of course it's all interconnected. Geopolitics are huge complexes... intricate matters intersped with special interests and shady individuals as well. The fact still remains that you try to shun away from Israel being just like an apartheid state, while Kadima makes it official policy. I...

Trader666, you try to slither your way into another topic of neighbouring tensions with other Arab states, while the fact that Palestinians who are living - wherever - are being marginalized, even by an Israeli state formalizing that they want them "outside of Israel" - and keep Israel for...

Dude... Have you read the founding principles of the ruling Kadima party? Israel's media reported that Kadima released the main points of its national agenda on November 28, 2005 as presented by Justice Minister Tzipi Livni in a drafted statement: * The Israeli nation has a national...
