It's not worth continuing the conversation. This is a decades long tactic done by communist sympathizers. Any time something deviates from the manifesto it's automatically deemed not communism even if the direct result is due to communism
And Lehigh is only 85 miles from Manhattan and is part of the Allentown Metro area that is a population of just over 800k. @bnwtwg literally does not know what he is talking about.
Middle of nowhere? It's just east of Allentown, an hour 20 from center city Philadelphia and and an hour 30minutes from Manhattan. Never heard of anyone ever describe it as the middle of nowhere. Sausage fest engineering school on the other hand, correct.
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
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
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.
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?
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?
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!
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
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.
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
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.
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
