    I agree with you - bad things happen in America every day - and in UK and Germany ---- but one thing I can say is that in general, the USA and UK do a good job of documenting reported crime, and we have a culture where people are more willing to report when they are victims of crime.

    I remember a few years ago there was some claims that rape was more common in the USA than India and Pakistan. I received a lot of pushback when I said that isn't believable - because rape, especially spousal rape is rampant in India and Pakistan. Numbers are only as reliable as the amount of people reporting.

    Another example is Venezuela - the government was purposely under-reporting murders because they did not want to be labeled as Caracas being the most dangerous city in the world at the time. So, the murder rate in Gary Indiana was technically higher. Now, Gary was very violent and was an example of American failure, but it wasn't as dangerous as Caracas or some cities in Iraq at the time.

    I don't agree with the treatment of Japanese Americans during WWII either. Japanese Americans soldiers comprised the most highly decorated unit (relative to size) in the history of the US military (the 442nd).
    Regardless of the reason, the point stands. I was correct that nowhere near 90% of Japanese Americans were interred, that is only the number if Hawaii is omitted.
    The why is obvious. The why is Pearl Harbor.
    We put over 10,000 Germans in camps, despite the much less serious attacks on the US from Germans (literally a small number of infiltrators). The comparison is apples to oranges. If Germany had launched a massive attack on Norfolk harbor that had crippled most of the Atlantic fleet, there would have been a lot more pressure to inter Germans. They didn't.
    What it's like fighting in Gaza is "what's REALLY happening in Gaza" from the perspective of an IDF soldier.

    Dude liked Nazis.

    There are these things called "red flags".

    Does someone get easily irritated? Red flag

    Does someone always brag about themselves? Red flag

    Does someone lie on trivial things? Red flag

    Did someone express fascination with Nazis?


    Ya red flag.

    Do you know what's a red flag?

    Considering j*ws as human beings.

    Compared to subhuman j*ws, Hitler was an angel without wings.

    What, all I did was quote Bible verses and show a practice done in several jewish communities. So much so that the City of New York's own government website put up health guidelines around it due to the STD spread: https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/health/health-topics/safe-bris.page


    From the NYC.gov link:

    Metzitzah B’peh (Direct Oral Suctioning)

    When a baby is circumcised, some ritual Jewish circumcisers (mohelim) do a practice called metzitzah b’peh. Metzitzah b’peh is when the mohel uses their mouth to suck blood away from the baby’s circumcision wound as part of the circumcision ritual. After metzitzah b’peh, some babies can get an infection.
