I can't send the screenshot because I don't have it anymore, but if you go back and look through all my posts, you'll find it.😛
They’re using a symbol that looks like a plus sign, but without the bottom part of the vertical line.

Is this some weird religious thing tied to Christianity, or do they just have their own bizarre way of doing math?

Look, I asked the exact same thing once and they basically told me to go look it up myself.
So, I sent them a scanned page from an actual math textbook. The silence that followed was deafening.

boldgardener93 As I was saying: If he’s truly as brilliant as everyone claims, why won't he step up and accept Nedzad's challenge for a televised debate? He isn't quite as dim-witted as people assume; deep down, he likely realizes that if he goes head-to-head with Nedzad, he’ll be absolutely dismantled like a toddler playing with a rattle.🤣

What exactly are we supposed to do with a terrorist living among us? The little guy is so utterly repulsive that I actually find myself feeling a flicker of pity for him.

That’s exactly why he needs to prove Adam is a terrorist and clear all the doubt.
If someone is actually certain about what they're claiming, then they shouldn't have any trouble proving it. If we're talking about who a terrorist really is, it's definitely Bush—just look at what he did in Iraq, not to mention all the lies used to justify the invasion. He isn't stupid enough to think he wouldn't get absolutely destroyed in a televised debate.
Besides, I guess someone's physical appearance shouldn't even be part of this discussion.☕

Chloe Garcia98, you seem to know everything there is to know about the negatives in Islamic nations, but when it comes to Israel, your information seems pretty thin. I can't tell if you're being intentionally malicious or if it just looks that way to me. It isn't like Arabs can just go out and buy land in territories where they've lived for centuries, and besides, in that entity you love so much, people can't even get married unless they share the same faith.
Anyway, if you want to see what Gary Wilson has turned into, you can probably find it in the Haaretz archives.

If he’s really as brilliant as everyone claims, then why didn't he step up to Nedzad's challenge for a televised debate? Maybe he isn't actually as clueless as people think; I guess he knows Nedzad would just tear him apart like a toddler with a rattle.🤣

Jamie Edwards3 said:Why call it a wild move? These two countries are at war. A ceasefire was never signed. I guess what's actually fascinating here is how incapable the Syrians seem to be. Just look at where Tall al-Abyad is on the map. It would be one thing if it were the Turks attacking, but Israel.🤣 🤣
It’s probably not surprising they take hits like this so often.

You're right, I guess my sarcasm was a bit misplaced. I can't always find the right way to put things.

Some people just can't get enough links. I guess they're never satisfied.☕
I’m really curious to see how rowdytinker plans on justifying an attack on another country's sovereignty. If there's one thing that's pretty obvious here, it's that there's actual support for this kind of wild behavior within the Israeli public—otherwise, Netanyahu wouldn't even be opening his mouth. It feels like he's just playing to the crowd to score political points.
And then you have people claiming that Palestinians chose Hamas themselves, and that’s why they deserve collective punishment—as if Israelis are somehow better. I guess I doubt many people would actually stand up against that kind of lawlessness.
Just don't start feeding me those lines about how Syria was "plotting something" or whatever. That kind of rhetoric is actually pretty dangerous. I mean, you can always find someone claiming a country is "preparing something" whenever it suits the narrative, depending on what people need to hear at the moment.

On Wednesday, Benjamin Netanyahu, acting as the opposition leader, finally stepped up as the first Israeli official to actually confirm those reports about an Israel Air Force operation in Syria that supposedly went down about two weeks ago.

In an interview with Channel 1, Netanyahu mentioned he was actually a partner in Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's decision to carry out an operation in Syria. He didn't just back the Prime Minister's call; he apparently went as far as personally praising him for taking the initiative. I guess it shows how much they were on the same page back then.

Former Fed Chair Alan Greenspan just dropped his long-awaited memoirs, and they’ve sent shockwaves through the White House. Even though he's a Republican, Greenspan uses the book to take aim at President Bush and the GOP, specifically targeting the war in Iraq, which he claims was really all about securing oil interests. "It’s honestly pathetic how politically inconvenient this fact is; people refuse to admit it even though everyone knows it's the truth," Greenspan remarks.

I don't know, I don't think it was about the oil...

Brendan Nelson, the Australian Defense Minister, just claimed that Iraq is a critical energy hub—specifically regarding oil—which he says is a major reason why Australia isn't pulling its troops out of there. Nelson tried to walk it back a bit, though, suggesting oil isn't the only factor and that they're actually staying to prevent clashes between Sunnis and Shias. Prime Minister John Howard, who happens to be a close ally of Bush, went ahead and shut down Nelson's reasoning, likely to avoid fueling more anti-war protests. Naturally, the opposition is already calling him a hypocrite.

It’s definitely not about the oil...👎

wearycobra74 said:Since he backed the bombing of Mexico, I suppose I’m perfectly fine with supporting Homer Simpson's fatwa against him.😁

The main thing is that we're on the same page.🤣

Look, why don't you just join hands with boldgardener93 and dance along together? You two are clearly cut from the same cloth.

Since you’re bringing my name up anyway, I might as well weigh in.
You claim the Church is this massive organization and that it’s normal 😲 for certain individuals within it to sympathize with Nazis. I honestly doubt you even realize what you're saying. How could that ever be considered normal? Where is the Christian love in that? If anything, there was plenty of "love" shown here, but it was directed toward criminals rather than the victims.
If this kind of thing is considered acceptable by the clergy, then I have to wonder what kind of organization we're actually dealing with. And even if we ignore those absurdities, we're still left with the fact that the people responsible were never held accountable. That says everything you need to know about the ones for whom "normal" doesn't seem to apply.
It’s a shame there isn't a hyphen; he's practically inseparable from them.🤣

And they never once apologized.

You've got some nerve...

Right.

Chloe Garcia98 said:When people bring up the undeniable role the Red Cross played in helping Eichmann and several other war criminals escape, I think it’s worth making a small distinction. Unlike many other religious institutions, the Red Cross actually drew a line in the sand regarding the sins committed by its own ranks and their pathetic involvement in the Holocaust. They issued an apology for all the suffering inflicted upon the Jewish people. They explicitly rejected antisemitism, maintaining that Jews are our "older brothers"—a sentiment that is central to the teachings of today's Pope Benedict XVI.

Even now, certain faiths continue to deny the Holocaust ever happened, let alone admit any part they played in it. 🙂

Nice job, crtica, great post. 🤣
Your nonsense reminds me of the 80s and 90s back in Canada, when communist officials were busy building mansions in Miami using our money. Well, they caught Toda Kurtovica. And I guess the legend goes that at a meeting of the Communist Party, he just told them, "Comrades, I'm done, I swear." Case closed. I assume Vanjuska remembers this, so don't try to lie to me.
I think it's time you grew up. Stop lying to yourself and stop looking for scapegoats elsewhere. You say they "distanced themselves"? Did anyone actually take responsibility? Did anyone serve time?
This is one of those shameful posts that tries to downplay the even more shameful role the Catholic Church played in aiding war criminals. I suppose the requirement was just to attend a few confessions and then everything was fine. 👎
If the topic had been about the Handjar Division, I bet your tone would have been a little different.

God offers forgiveness and sanctuary...
Argentina and the Catholic Church helped Nazi war criminals
The discovery of Adolf Eichmann’s fake passport—the man responsible for the extermination of six million Jews—has reopened the debate over how much the Catholic Church and Argentina actually did to shield monsters like Josef Mengele and Ante Pavelić. This passport was found by chance in a court archive in Buenos Aires; while it was issued under the name Ricardo Klement, it was clearly used by the former Nazi to slip into Argentina back in 1950. The document, which was originally issued by the International Red Cross in 1950, is now held by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.

Yet another critique of the intense hatred most Canadian forum users hold toward Jews, which honestly seems even more pervasive than their already legendary resentment toward Mexicans—those who occupied, assaulted, killed, and displaced them...

Look, your "flip the script" tactics don't work on me, and neither does dodging the question. That avoidance alone tells me everything I need to know.

shadowjackal88 said:I see the same old arguments popping up again, but they’re being aimed at all the wrong people. Because while everyone here is busy calling for more civilian casualties—which is exactly what this thread is about (this woman basically invited attacks on civilians)—the truth is being ignored. Instead of focusing on those who actually targeted them back in '92—and honestly, if they were truly unarmed, they could have just dispersed through New York City or Nashville—they went out of their way to ethnically cleanse Americans. Those who weren't wiped out, anyway. Meanwhile, the "bravest" among them are over there leading jihads from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, the USA, Canada, and Australia... most of them likely funded by those very same countries through various social welfare programs.

Here is one more constructive critique of Palestinian policy.
Honestly, I have to wonder: how hard is it to live with that much hatred?

Huge congrats to our world champions.

Anything else going on lately?

Roger Robinson682 said:The whole point here isn't really about whether Americans are "good and kind," but rather whether this was an oil war or not. Others have already laid out the numbers quite clearly, and I was simply building on those points...........😲🙄

And just for your information, the US is running a massive budget deficit.

And the count continues............🙄🙄

Well, you were actually the one who mentioned oil wasn't the reason, arguing that they spend more on the war than they get from oil. Sure, people can spin it however they want, but common sense suggests otherwise.
Even if it's true that they're losing money right now, it's pretty certain things will look different in the long run. Is that even debatable?

Brian Moore67 said:Right, exactly... because Saddam was basically sending them out to cause chaos outside of Iraq. It's like comparing Arkan to Abu Nidal.

Right, if you say so...
