Hey, you selectively quoted the guy - not my problem you are resorting to the old loon tactic of not believing anything that goes against loon assumptions. According to Gallup's findings over 50% of your fellow countrymen believe that man was created as described in the Bible - that doesn't leave mu...

shafique

I'd rather stick with what Chomsky said about the US and his comparisons with Saudi and Afghans - I fully understand you wanting to look at the stats in Pakistan - but shouldn't you be comparing like with like? How many of your fellow countrymen support capital punishment? As for Muslims believing t...

So, you admit you had to selectively quote an article to make your point - I guess we can call that progress, you are now out of denial. Next step is to realise that the Christians in America that dismiss science's explanations for man's creation do it BECAUSE the Bible disagrees with science - over...

shafique

I agree, if you ask loons for their version of history you'll get all these fanciful fantasies.

If you check the historical record (heck even CNN did a fact check), we find that Israel lied, Hamas offered to extend the truce etc.

QED

How many times do I have to repeat - don't believe what blogger elder tells you about what happened in 2008 - check out the many links provided and even the fact check done by CNN. The point you're studiously avoiding is that Prof Falk is on the money when it comes to the specific point about Israel...

shafique

Ha ha.

So, do you want to go for 5-0 or do you need more time to invent some quotes that you want to attribute to Chomsky?

Are you a masochist, or a secret Chomsky fan - can't quite figure you out.

Cheers,

I keep saying, I agree with Chomsky that the percentage of Americans who take the Bible's explanation of creation literally (over 50%) and hence reject science's explanation shows that the US is more fundamentalist than most other nations - certainly the US is an outlier when it comes to the develop...

Human rights organisations exposes the hypocrisy in the fanboi arguments that Israel is merciful when it comes to treating Palestinians under occupation generally and those under siege in Gaza specifically - and that the Palestinians are ungrateful if they wish their children to fight for liberating...

shafique

Yawn.

Just because you have a weird loon interpretation of Islam doesn't change the fact that it is your fellow Christians that have to abandon science to believe the Bible's account of creation.

So, no dispute that more than 50% of your fellow Americans believe that all living species were created 6,000 years ago in their current form. Now, given that not all Americans are Christian - that implies that most Christians in America reject science (as, by definition, the non-Christians - atheis...

You do miss a lot of things, that's true.

Did you miss the part where CNN punked the Israelis and exposed their lies about Hamas rockets breaking the truce?

Cheers,
Shafique

shafique

So, no dispute that International law 1, Loon bloggers 0. Thanks - that speaks volumes. As for elder's inability to read and comprehend the Hamas offers for a truce in 2008, that's his problem - not ours and has nothing to do with international laws that Israel is breaking. I suggest you help elder ...

shafique

What's funny is that you've so far produced 4 quotes from Chomsky which you initially claimed to be lies and turn out to be not lies when we see the full quotes. I'm asking whether you want to go for 5-0 now, and whether you're not actually a secret fan of Chomsky because you've been exposing the sl...

shafique

Again, we see fanbois can't handle the truth - just have to resort to name calling. It is interesting to contrast a loon blogger's spin and what Humanitarian Groups say: “Making a distinction between a life-threatening and a non-life threatening medical condition contradicts medical ethics, accordin...

shafique

Fanbois/Loon's are restless it seems and the hype machines are in over-drive: mothers want to 'murder', hospitals are 'torture chambers' etc.

And the reason?

Israel's hypocrisy is exposed by an article in Israeli newspaper from a few weeks ago. Sigh.

The Myth of Modern Jihad by Robert Wright It would be an understatement to say that Faisal Shahzad, the would-be Times Square bomber, pleaded guilty last week. “I’m going to plead guilty a hundred times over,” Shahzad told the judge. Why so emphatic? Because Shahzad is proud of himself. “I consider ...

shafique

I agree that Egypt is not blameless in the siege that was imposed at the behest of Israel and the US, but I fail to see why the Humanitarian Agency reports are hypocritical for pointing out Israeli actions - especially as fanbois try to make out that life is good in Gaza and Israel is merciful. Re-r...

shafique

Your argument is with the Human Rights organisations whose reports are in the first post. I really can't help you if you can't see what is wrong with denying medical treatment to a people under siege whose crime was to elect a less corrupt political party. It's a typical loon response to blame the v...

One day of strikes and the Bazaar vendors manage to get the Govt to back down on a proposed increase in income tax. Does this mean the Govt is week or the Souk workers extremely powerful? Greeks have had major protests over their Govt efforts to get control over the financial problems - looks like t...

shafique

Well, I'm with the Human Rights organisations who say: “Making a distinction between a life-threatening and a non-life threatening medical condition contradicts medical ethics, according to which any patient or injured person must be given access to the best medical care available for them, regardle...

shafique

Ah, I love loon exaggeration - always good for a laugh.

I'm actually feeling a bit sorry for the fanbois these days - hardly anyone believes the Israeli spin anymore. But always good for a laugh.

Very interesting development Melika - thanks for sharing. It will be interesting to see how this develops.

You and your 'suspicions' and yet another unreferenced statistic. Did you confirm what the latest proportion of Americans who believe that that all living species were created 6,000 years ago in their current form. is? They only believe this because they take the Bible's creation explanation over th...

shafique

I see, another fanboi is blaming the victims again. Please get your stories straight - either Israel is being merciful when it treats the ill people under siege in Gaza or it is being 'strong but firm' when it violates international laws as stated by the quotes above. If Gaza and the West Bank is no...

shafique

Imagining things again eh - thanks for sharing. When you find time to visit planet earth again, you'll notice that the thread below awaits your scientific explanation for the Bible's claim that the sun stood still in the sky for a day. When you have any evidence to counter Chomsky's statements - let...

shafique

Yeah, try and watch and listen to what is being said. In this thread, Professor Falk shows that Israel is breaking international law. Your response is to quote a loon blogger who has a bizare memory of what happened in 2008. The CNN video shows that Israel lied about Hamas breaking the siege, a fact...

shafique

What was unclear - you need to get your stories straight. What is fascinating is that the spin isn't working anymore - the Human Rights reports all clearly expose the illegalities of Israeli actions. You have no response other than to blame the victims. shame on you. But let's quote another part of ...

shafique

Whose changing the topic? Chomsky makes his claim based on the statistic of how many Americans believe that all living species were created 6,000 years ago in their current form. Therefore we should look at the same statistic in other countries. You've failed to do so - in fact you've failed to even...

shafique

A moving and harrowing account by a woman who wishes the occupation of Jerusalem to end. Can't spin the occupation of Jerusalem or the desire of those living under occupation (and illegal annexation, don't forget) as anything other that what it is. But coming back to the points made by the Human Rig...
