So your argument is there is 15.5 million and not 14 million.
wikipedia has infinitely more credibility than you do. The contention that wikipedia is generically unreliable on important stats, is a lot less reliable than the assertion it isnt. Wikipedia uses sources. Your contention uses myths and rhetoric.
Your argument about Jews being threatened by history is a decent one. However as I alluded to, the largest 2 populations are USA and Israel, both of whom are nuclear nations with no foreseeable reason to attack Jews.
You left out the UK and France. Both have up to 3 times as many nukes as Israel and a blue water navy. Israel cant nuke the planet with 80 nukes. It could potentially take out every major capital or destroy one country. In a conventional context, Israel could obviously more than own the middle east, unless it got caught in a kamikaze situation. As for the nuclear 5, what they have above all is deployment. A blue water navy means nukes can be launched even if the nation is gone. This effectively makes you unbeatable. Its a doomsday button. Anyone stupid enough to launch an all out attack on France or the UK would never be able to find the location of the submarine fleet, in time before their own nation was vaporised. Furthermore, the fleet may be deep in the ocean, and are still fully capable of launching from there. Potentially, even America and Russia would effectively be stalemated by this.
As for America, she too has a blue water navy, and describes this as "The Defense Security Service of the United States has defined the blue-water navy as, "a maritime force capable of sustained operation across the deep waters of open oceans."
Russia, USA and China also arguably have land/air based deployment that can be relied upon for second strike capacity. France has the third biggest force on the planet and maintains a nuclear triad in theory and an air and sea force in practice.
Pakistan has more nukes than India.
You all make some good points. I dont know. My knee jerk reaction is against such a thing, but then I dont run society and I can see the arguments for it too. Kids need role models and right or wrong, sexuality is part of that.
Im not a fan of people who deride liberals, but this philosophy does have its limits and usually they centre around the concept of competent consent, and consenting adults. A child by definition is not part of that construct.
So... do we act like it has no moral or role model bearing on the child? Also, is it not the price of homosexuality by definition - ie you dont have kids with another man or woman?
Its a good question, and I think it should be earnestly debated as such.
Dont bring family into it trollingface. I understand he made it personal with race, but the topic will attract fans and foes, of the great jewish religion, because of the subject matter. He wasnt making it specifically personal to you, unless he was doing so by relation. His first post was a bit more eloquent. His second was was a bad one in my opinion, but his family is off limits, but he will be banned and reported if he is not careful.
I dont want you to get banned and reported, so keep family out of it, thank you.
its effectively calling a stereotypical black person a nigger and subscribing to this stereotype, which in itself is racist, as it reduces an entire group of people to one poor caricature of a comedy character. it then reduces another group of people to a gross association with this stereotyped representation of a people.
its inaccurate, short-handed and a great example of casual contemporary racism.
I am probably a good person but I haven't taken the time to fill out my profile, so you'll never know! |
