    Le Soleil: Les soldats tournent le dos à l’armée

    Un article aujourd'hui dans Le Soleil de Quebec titre: Les soldats tournent le dos à l’armée Le sens original de l'expression "tourner le dos" est fuir. Comme dans absence sans permission ou desertion. Bien sur, le contenu de l'article montre une tout autre realite. Un titre plus juste aurait...

    Peace, Propaganda & The Promised Land

    No one writes about the Jewish equivalent of Jihad. This is an army forum, so I think it is appropriate to discuss religion when it applies to war. The Jew call it milchemet mitzvah, hebrew for mandatory war. The article below explains the distinction between it and milchemet reshut, optional...

    Peace, Propaganda & The Promised Land

    You can't possibly be serious! I quote the Qur'an, a text written in the 7th century, before the invention of politics as we know it. I show you an example of pure hatred for Jews and Christians, and you still call it politics! I give up. You win. This forum is politics. The weather report is...

    Peace, Propaganda & The Promised Land

    To George Wallace: On the Hizbollah flag, the bottom text means "The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon". The upper text is the second half of Quran 5:56 "for, all who ally themselves with God and His Apostle and those who have attained to faith - behold, it is they, the partisans of God, who shall...

    Peace, Propaganda & The Promised Land

    True in 99% of the world, not the Holy Land. But don't listen to me. Listen to Isham, a summer camp director in Gaza, as he explains what he teaches the children: "We teach the children the truth.(...) Most important, the children understand that the conflict with the Jews is not over land, but...

    Light Up the Sky

    August 22nd passed and they are still selling falafels in Jerusalem. But many infidels paid attention, a few were scared, so Ahmadinejad is very happy. And so are all muslims: Qur'an [3.151] : We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve, because they set up with Allah that for...

    Peace, Propaganda & The Promised Land

    Lots of flames in here. I'll add my two cents, hoping not to start a new fire. To Edward Campbell and all the others who can't see the forest for the trees, my point is: The root cause of war in the Holy Land is religion. This region simply cannot be understood with politics and history alone...

    Light Up the Sky

    I am glad to see religion brought in the ME debate. Indeed, religion is the root cause for war in Palestine. Now, about lighting up the sky, the Shia know it is coming, but in the wrong country. From the Wikipedia page on the Mahdi: The 6th Shi'a Imam, Jafar al-Sadiq, is reported to have said...

    History of the Arab-Jewish Conflict

    To Kirkhill, Probum, Echo9 and all those who try to find the forest behind the trees, a short message: In the Holy Land, religion is the root cause. Everything else is consequence. I am glad to see the Scriptures quoted in a few comments in this thread, but disappointed to see how many view...

    Lebanon (Superthread)

    I found the reason why the program was cancelled: not inefficiency, like some here have suggested, but money. From a column in the Wall Street Journal: The column covers in details the strategic importance of these cheap, short range rockets that can carry chemical or biological agents. Uri...

    UN Observers To Be Removed

    what this Jan Egeland said contradicts what another UN "chief" said two days ago: Furthermore, the email from Major Kruedener to CTV days before his death also confirmed that Hezbollah maintained "static positions in and around our patrol Base." This also contradicts Lute. As all can see...

    History of the Arab-Jewish Conflict

    Second excerpt from Hull's book, Chapt 13: The story of Hannah Senesch (Senesh, Szenes) is equally heroic and tragic, and rendered more poignant by her youth, her charm and her poetic attainments. In 1939, at the age of eighteen, Hannah had left her native Budapest for Palestine, and after a...
