    Good god... Iran has nothing to do with their debate/ argument. Must you bring it up in every discussion? It's getting exceedingly tiresome.

    Israel is wrong and Iran is wrong. Terrorism is wrong. Liberals support the military. The cow jumped over the Moon. This thread reminds me, for some bizarre reason, of the flick Pulp Fiction. Like this scene:


    Vincent: Want some bacon?
    Jules: No man, I don't eat pork.
    Vincent: Are you Jewish?
    Jules: Nah, I ain't Jewish, I just don't dig on swine, that's all.
    Vincent: Why not?
    Jules: Pigs are filthy animals. I don't eat filthy animals.
    Vincent: Bacon tastes gooood. Pork chops taste gooood.
    Jules: Hey, sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but I'd never know 'cause I wouldn't eat the filthy mother****er. Pigs sleep and root in ****. That's a filthy animal. I ain't eat nothin' that ain't got enough sense enough to disregard its own faeces.
    Vincent: How about a dog? Dogs eats its own feces.
    Jules: I don't eat dog either.
    Vincent: Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal?
    Jules: I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.
    Vincent: Ah, so by that rationale, if a pig had a better personality, he would cease to be a filthy animal. Is that true?
    Jules: Well we'd have to be talkin' about one charmin' mother****in' pig. I mean he'd have to be ten times more charmin' than that Arnold on Green Acres, you know what I'm sayin'?



    And this one:


    Jules: Wanna know what I'm buyin' Ringo?
    Pumpkin: What?
    Jules: Your life. I'm givin' you that money so I don't hafta kill your ass. You read the Bible?
    Pumpkin: Not regularly.
    Jules: There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you. I been sayin' that **** for years. And if you ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never really questioned what it meant. I thought it was just a cold-blooded thing to say to a mother****er before you popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some **** this mornin' made me think twice. Now I'm thinkin': it could mean you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or it could be you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. I'd like that. But that **** ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd.




    I have no idea why.



    Keep D&D Civil.

    Here are some posts off the top of my head:

    "Starting the threads" is not the criteria, since a LOT of times (including the pullout from Gaza) there were already existing threads in which I engaged in discussion with my fellow posters.

    BTW, I had no idea about the transfer of meds to the Palestinians, that's certainly good news (I haven't come across it, however).

    However, having the Palestinian GIC treated in an Israeli hospital is not a newsworthy topic, it doesn't affect much and has little to no relevance to the overall situation in the region.

    Also, I have criticized the Iranian leadership on numerous occasions, do you think I am anti-Iranian? I have condemned everyone from the Saudis (said some harsh things about the Saudis, no one complained like you're now) to the Palestinian terrorist attacks against Israeli citizens, not to mention the targeting of Iraqi civilians by insurgent forces and the Egyptian government. Am I anti-Saudi, anti-Palestinian, anti-Egyptian, and anti-Iraqi? How about criticizing the Turks for their insistence that an Armenian genocide never took place? Am I anti-Turks? I have been highly critical of both Democrats and Republicans, am I anti-Democrats and anti-Republicans?

    May be I am, may be I am just "unaware", as you put it...

    Not true, the majority of those threads were neutral in content, that's just your spin and your own take on them, which you're entitled to.

    They were NEWSWORTHY, that's the standard I follow.

    However, rest assured that if something like a withdrawal from parts of the West Bank takes place -- or a peace pact with the Syrians/Lebanese -- I will rush over to the D&D and attempt to start a new thread on the topic, unless someone beats me to it.

    great way to ignore my argument
    any day

    look, if someone makes a claim they must prove it with refrences, and taking one verse and using it out of context is very easy to do.

    many people have done that against islam and still continue to do so.

    lets continue the discussion in azadres thread...
