011284mm: The reality is I get what you say. I just think that you are underestimating what you see up ahead. Our views are different and our perception is the same. But our world is one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMRANk8t0rE infinite9: Education? People have tried that and ended up creating sitting ducks for more attacks.
011284mm: I agree that just putting people in schools and teaching out of textbooks is not the best way for education. I see education as a multi-sided puzzle into the mind.
If you have a child, or other peoples children;
Can they shoot a gun? Education.
Can they read, and see if there is a second side to the argument? Education.
Can they cook? Education.
Can they read, write, speak and take part in the world? Education.
Can they drive? Education
As I said. Education has far more to it then is just found in the pages of a text book, and the information of those can always be adjusted to give off a certain narrative. You can introduce a narrative into the education system as has been happening for the last 30 years or so, especially in the UK. I would guess the US too.
infinite9: Just because it is considered easy to use one type of violence against another does not mean it is dumb or bad. Imperial Japan and the United States were archenemies during the War in the Pacific portion of WW2 and after numerous bloody battles, the firebombing of Tokyo, and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki; Imperial Japan was defeated and now the US and Japan are close allies and trading partners.
011284mm: Can I begin by saying I get the sentiment. The faster you can end a fight the better for all. Less losses all around.
Yet still turning the entire area into glass is not going to make anyone more likely to trust those dropping the bombs. Face it right now, all the bombing does is kill indiscriminately giving those we fight against yet more deaths to use against us.
You could carpet bomb the entire area and still have the ground to use after you were finished without the long wait. Yet you would still end up causing your opponent to win the long war of peoples minds. The art of war has not changed, only the weapons and speed.
We are watching the machine go up against the sand and the sand is clogging the machinery.
Also keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Do you really trust the Japanise so much? I would rethink that with the 75 years of having little left of their once great armies. Just look at how much your soldiers are wanted out.
infinite9: The proper education I would provide is teaching people combat such as the use of the semi-auto rifle, pump-action shotgun, semi-auto pistol, and various melee combat techniques from kickboxing to the use of knives.
011284mm: Okay, so you want to train people to defend themselves. Good, and okay. Just double check all those you teach to make sure that you keep out the undesirable. Also make sure that they are less of a danger to themselves and the wider world then what you are attempting to teach them to defend them against.
infinite9: As for the "monsters," the monsters are the ones who support the raping and assault of women because they did not dress Islamic enough or for walking outside without a male escort. The monsters are the ones who support the systematic repression and killing of anyone who is not of their particular religious view. I do not see Christians, Heathens, Pagans, Shintoists, or Buddhists doing this right now. I see Muslims doing that. As for the things you mentioned, there was more to the enslavement of blacks than just whites being mean to non-whites.
011284mm: We need to educate those who support the raping, assault, and many other belittlements of both men and women who do not appear, or act like them. Please put the book down, you cannot bash this type of education into, nor out of them.
Buddhists were some enlightened, well educated and dangerous individuals back in Japan during the Samari wars, they built temples and fought off Samari. Travelled all over the place and were often left be to just wonder. In modern history they have ignited themselves and there have been clashes between Buddhists and Muslims that have left hundreds of Muslim followers dead. As well as Buddhists too.
I will simply say that religion gives people something to hold on to when all else appears to be done for and when nothing else can explain their problems and woe. As "Heathens" cover all who are not apart of the religion in question we can easily say that any religion, and all, have some undesirables within them both now and in their past.
infinite9: There were ethnic Jewish merchants who financed the Atlantic Slave Trade and black slaveholders in the American colonies. Many black slaves were already enslaved by the North Africans and many were taken captive by rival black tribesmen. Islam does not compare to black slavery and I happen to know that many white Europeans were taken away by enslavers as part of the Barbary Slave Trade and Middle Eastern slave trade. The women were used as sex slaves and that is why some North Africans and Middle Easterners have striking physical similarities to Germanic and Celtic people.
011284mm: Yes I agree the slave trade was a complete free-for all and that everyone and anyone would enslave anyone they could.
History is filled with acts like this. My point though was more to show how our reasoning to do good can be manipulated against us by twisting the way we tell history. With many blacks now demanding reprections for what was done to their forefathers. People who were just hoping to be treated equally, so we did, but now we allow people to "feel" over thinking, a problem in western education that needs to be dealt with.
infinite9: If it was up to me, much of the Assyrians and Israelis would be relocated to Egypt, much of the Kurds would be relocated to eastern Turkey, Istanbul would be renamed Constantinople, and much of the Persians would be relocated to Kazakhstan right before the following land adjustment to Southwest Asia...
011284mm: If you learn nothing else from the creation of Israel. Forcing people anywhere will always end badly.
Just as I dislike the over-running of "migrants" into Europe right now, I also would have to disagree with the forced movement of others full stop.
It crushes the indigenous population, their lives, populace, happiness and their society. It causes grief for those being forced to moved as well as the above and the forced movement of the originally indigenous population.
And when do you think the Islamists will let you educate them? Before or after they put a 7.62x39mm round into you? Or perhaps a 5.45x39mm? Or perhaps they will save the ammo and just use a machete?
Educating them would do as much good as educating people not to rape or steal does in every other country. People are taught not to steal in the US but some people still steal, burglarize, mug, or get jobs at the IRS. I have nothing against slaughtering those that are loyal to such repressive religious ideologies.
Also, if you think moving people into a new area is bad, then perhaps something should be done with certain members of the current population like in Egypt in which the Muslim Brotherhood plagues the country. Wipe out the Muslim Brotherhood and Egypt will have space for Assyrians.
Shadowstalker16: And always remember, don't shit on endangered species kids!
Fine. I would have much of the Asiatic cheetahs moved to ranches and zoos. Then unleash devastation to the Middle East. Also, some "endangered" species are not really endangered but rather "vulnerable" and it is all circumstantial in the end. After all, people did not cry over wiping out small pox viruses and people will not cry if certain other microscopic creatures were eradicated and while some people will argue that those things do not cry out in pain or having faces, I argue that only shows that a lot of animal rights or animal welfare crap is purely emotional.
