Welcome to Gaia! ::

I prefer "House of Fun" ...

I never liked what can only be described as Rapper-lite, but this is pretty good. Check these lads from Leeds then. You might not of heard of 'em. They're called the Kaiser Cheifs.

Its a great one about public fear, general madness, and the horrible fate of Youth this generation.

Or, if you prefer one about propoganda, alcohol, hen nights, and the horrible truth that no matter what class you are, we're still controlled by media, try this one:

All very tounge in cheek

I don't think Israel wants to kick the a** off Palestine... It's usually a "we have to kick their a**, we really don't want to."

Honestly, there's no short term solution. They keep applying short term fixes, when in reality they're not go to do well if 10 guys who smuggled a Katusha Launcher through the lines can relaunch a war on Israel by themselves.

Unless they evacuate all people... civilians and militants and goverment agents... make the whole place a no man's land. Then after that's taken care of, quarantine it... completely.

And then burn everything, demolish, obliterate it... raze the whole area.

After the entire gaza strip has been completely returned to an uncivilized barren blasted patch of earth then they give the land to Egypt and let THEM WORRY ABOUT IT.

Cause really, the only way you can accomplish peace between Palestinians and Israelis is to have a massive empire consume both lands and make them both occupied lands.

Hell everything was going great until the British decided to put border lines through the Ottoman Empire.

This calls for celebration!

Humans and their lines of territory. I'm still praying for patience.

Of course suggesting a world without borders is basically equated to a world wide empire which certainly isn't what I want. I'd prefer anarchy really, because once you get people used to the idea that it isn't so negative I think things would be just fine. Maybe I've been watching too much V for Vendetta.

One wonders how the Arabs didn't win the 1948 War when all they had to do was ride a lawnmower through that tiny middle bit of Israel to split the country in half.

Lets be honest, no one gives a crap about Scientology.

In that case, a bicycle would've sufficed. Heck, it worked for the Japanese when they advanced on Singapore. rofl

Further to Neuf's post with the two maps:

If WWI had been lost, WWII wouldn't've happened as the German people would not have faced the economic horrors they had to put up with, and so would not have turned to the Nazis. So really, make a choice. Which do you prefer? Losing 6 million people and having Israel, or our people never suffering that awful fate, and having to wait a bit longer.

You see, we would've had Israel anyway. The Ottaman Empire was facing great turmoil. Nearly every state under it was rebelling. Israel would've been abandoned in years, and the rich and influential Jewish people in both the USa and Europe (who would've retained their lives) would have helped in settinm gup Israel as we know it today.

Did I mention my family fought for Germany in WWI?
