  1. Perhaps I'm wrong but I thought that Germany and Italy DID flirt with fascism prior to going all in and becoming fascist states.
  2. Well, we are supposed to oppose them if we aren't part of them of course. It would be nice however if while doing so we showed why ours might be a better, more civilized way.
  3. The identifiable reason is that some Arabs are Israeli citizens. It doesn't keep them from being discriminated against in Israel but it means that they can no longer be kicked out of Israel. Of course none of them get back the land that was stolen from them. Correct. Some people manage to come and go. Again, you make it sound as if Gaza cannot be compare to a concentration camp if some people can leave, or if people aren't starving. https://www.nrc.no/news/2018/april/gaza-the-worlds-largest-open-air-prison/ Similar to the way Jews worked outside the camps. https://abcnews.go.com/International/detailed-hamas-secretly-crossed-israel/story?id=103917182 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_Strip#:~:text=Israel controls the Gaza Strip's,borders are heavily militarily fortified. Like many others, you seem to have reached a conclusion first then found arguments to support it. Whether or not Gaza precisely meets any given definition of a 'concentration camp', it seems clear to me that the people who make the comparison are not overreaching to any great extent.
  4. Concentration camps were not first created by the Nazis, and there is much more to a concentration camp than lack of food. You cannot just say "If it didn't look like what happened in Nazi Germany then it isn't a concentration camp." https://www.lbi.org/exhibitions/virtual-exhibition-last-stop-before-the-last-stop/concentration-camps-existed-long-before-hitler-came-to-power/
  5. You can act awfully childish for a person your age.

    I fear you lack a base level understanding of how the physical world works. Objective Permanence usually begins at about 8 months. https://www.whattoexpect.com/first-year/playtime/object-permanence-in-babies/

    Of course there is. Dinosaurs existed even though no humans were there at the same time. How did the human mind come to be if there was nothing there from which they could have developed?
  10. It's a shame you chose to ignore everything that everyone had to say.
  11. I have this song on my iPhone, albeit a somewhat peppier version she did.
  12. Soldiers deal with this issue all the time. They know there are foes out there heading in their direction who will try to kill them. They also know there are friends out there heading in their direction who will not try to kill them. I'm hopeful the soldiers are smart enough to identify their potential targets before pulling the trigger.
  13. It gets very confusing when people edit out their mistakes after 10 people have already discussed the mistakes.
  14. Then doing our duty kind of sucks given all the war, genocide, global warming, pollution, nuclear weapons, etc.
  15. Bullshit. Only you and perhaps one other are suggesting their side is justified in killing innocents. The rest of us are condemning the atrocities on both sides.
  16. Sure they would. But not if they broke out of Auschwitz and went on the rampage, killing women and children.
  17. Can you answer my questions please? And if you can do so without belittling my knowledge I'd appreciate it. So if one are fighting for the freedom of their people, then the targeted killing of women, children and civilians is not immoral? Or is it just a little bit immoral?
