Nietzsche rejected objective truth, morality, and had a strange mixture of fierce nationalism (for his own nation) and an equally fierce rejection of all other nationalistic claims. That is why the choice of names fits.
One of the ways you can identify people who are not actually concerned about Arab Palestinians but rather are only interested in demonizing Israel is that they do not bother to post - or even read - articles concerning how the actions of Arabs (either the Arab Palestinians themselves or their...
Lyndon - No the Arabs were 1. following the directions they were given by their leaders, 2. fleeing the invading Arab armies. Please read the histories, I posted. It is impossible to have a discussion with someone who insists on being fact free.
Lyndon - When Israel treats Palestinians in a negative manner, I am be the first to criticize it. Somehow, improving living conditions for a population which says it wants to destroy your country and commit genocide seems pretty fair. So does providing healthcare, educational opportunities...

The article is factual. The title is iffy
Here is a nice e-z explanation of what the JCPOA is:
"
What is the "Iran nuclear deal"?
What is mistakenly perceived as an agreement under the title of Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, which was concluded on July 14 in Vienna and...
This was the foreseeable result of a policy based on false assumptions, ideology, and cultural & historical ignorance. Another case of good intentions gone tragically bad.

Lyndon - In advancing and promoting you hatred of American nationalism are you as willing to tell lies as you are in promoting and advancing your hatred of Zionism?
Are you always immune to facts, or is it just when we are discussing nationalism? Is it just when we are discussing Zionism...

The Forward is a liberal publication (When it was founded it was a Socialist Yiddish newspaper.). The American Thinker is a conservative publication. Thus in this thread, I have cited one liberal and one conservative article. Amazingly, since they are both fact based they make...

Wikipedia is not a particularly good source for anything which is at all controversial. It is great if you want to look up the date of Norman invasion of England, but that is about it.
Perhaps you could be bothered to read this article. It is short...
This is 100% correct.
Zionism is the national movement of the Jewish people. Before you criticize Zionism you must ask yourself if you criticize any other national movement and if so on what basis. Do you criticize Russian nationalism? Norwegian nationalism? French nationalism? Tibetan...
Folks - there was no expulsion of Arabs from Israel. It did not happen. Here are the facts: http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/History/refugees.html

What I am saying is that the Arab narrative is a lie. If you wish to believe the lies there is nothing much I can do except to point out the facts.
Jews were ethnically cleansed from Arab lands. Jews were entirely ethnically cleansed from the lands which were illegally occupied by Jordan...
Perhaps the biggest lie of the Palestinian movement is that the Jewish homeland is like "South African apartheid." In fact, Israel is better compared to a "reservation" or "safe house" for indigenous Middle Eastern Jews who were ethnically cleansed from Arab lands...

I was just stating facts. You do not have to accept them. If you knew anything about Israeli politics or the actual positions of the people, you would know I am correct. If you knew anything, at all, about the Arab/Israeli conflict you would also know I am correct.
The "peaceful people" around Israel, the ones who are using military tactis to destroy it - glorify violence. that is what militarists do and who they are. The people who are forced to respond to attack are not militarist. They are defending themselves. Enough with the double standard applied to...
OK Folks. 1. Israel is not becoming "right wing"". Israel is a liberal democracy where even the right wing politicians are more left wing than our so called liberals here in the US. there is nothing right wing or left wing about defending one's country from attack. There is nothing right or...
