  1. I applaud your general concern for Palestinians. I honestly think it's commendable. But, we're talking about Hamas. An organization that is repressive to it's own citizens
  2. Just in the last few years they've missed out on Ungar, Sasso, Kasak, Labriola, Pinto who are all in their backyard. @Husker_Duwould know better than anyone else
  3. There is nothing disingenuous about my question! I asked you a legit question and you're solution is literally to involve a terrorist organization at the table to negotiate peace. An organization who's backed by Iran who's entire political goal in the middle east is the destruction of Israel. If anyone is being disingenuous it's your Disney World solution.
  4. Can you answer my question? You honestly believe Hamas ceases to exist if Israeli's just packed up and left? They would just give up all their power they now have over Palestinians?
  5. You honestly believe that at this time that if Palestine was given all their pre 1948 land back that Hamas an autocratic regime would cease to exist by giving their power back to the other Palestinians they subjugate? You honestly believe that? You don't take into consideration that if your plan came into fruition it would embolden Hezbollah, other extreme jihadist regimes, and Iran to cause more chaos in the region?
  6. Holy Moly! In just one week I've seen sewer systems get attacked and now douche bags. As a collective group we should all appreciate sanitary systems that improve the quality of the things we love!
  7. There are caveats to this theory. First is the average median age of males in the general population. For Palestine I believe it is around 18 years of age. Much lower than the global population. This does imply that your theory could be correct. It also highlights one of the biggest issues counter terrorism deals with in that these jihadist groups target pre teens to indoctrinate. At the same time, no one has given a solid counter argument on how to deal with Hamas. It's not so black and white
  8. Correct. like I said I'm all for more gun regulation. And also the gun culture in Switzerland is far different than the US. I can't imagine America is going to depart itself from gun ownership. Just pointing out that there are more responsible ways of going about it. Lax laws and poor mental health is a recipe for disaster.
  9. Not entirely true. Switzerland has a high rate of gun ownership and low homicide rates comparable to countries with the strictest gun laws. I'm all for more regulations but we can't deny that America has a mental health crises
  10. That averages out to 5' 4"...Thank Allah Aaron Brooks wasnt out there
  11. Far from it my friend. This new speaker spear headed to overturn an election based solely on a false narrative. He's also penned editorials asking to criminalize same sex marriage. When Trump makes a run to the Thrown Johnson will be front and center spewing lies.
  12. No but Aaron Brooks is https://intermatwrestle.com/forums/topic/2803-is-aaron-brooks-too-short-for-197/#comments
  13. We do a considerable amount of work in some rough Philly neighborhoods. I carry my Walther 9mm. I'm amazed that when I tell people they think it's cool. It's an unpleasant feeling thinking you might have to defend your own life just to go to work. And like Ohio Elite said the 9mm isn't going to do much good. Wouldn't want to get caught up in a gang shooting where they're spraying bullets everywhere
  14. Gotcha, thanks! Well here's the kicker. At this moment there is no right or wrong answer on whether pulling out of Afghanistan was the right thing to do. History will eventually tell that story. After the fall of the USSR I'm sure there were many people in the US intelligence community that thought that the region we helped win their resistance would be the last place an Arab Sunni from Saudi Arabia would build a network of terrorist to attack the US and was protected by former Mujahedeen.
  15. Apologies, haven't read through the prior post. I answered your post assuming you were generally asking who on paper Hamas aligned with religiously. I'm guessing you knew the answer and were setting up to make a point?
  16. No one tell Jimmy that Kurt Angle at 5'9" won 2 NCAA titles and a gold medal at heavy weight
  17. Stefan Struve the tallest man to ever fight in the UFC has a record of 13-11
  18. Wrong weight class my friend. We're discussing 197...sooooo, maybe?
  19. Look at this photo. Spencer is shorter than Tom Brands. Cael may be close to three heads taller than Spencer. Bormet is listed at 5'9" so I estimate that Spencer is no taller than 5'3". A typical head coach like Mike Gray is 5'7". Spencer is amazing and wrestling knowledge won't be a problem at coaching but I can't help but wonder if his lack of height will be an issue against the taller coaches.
