    Backwards logic if I ever heard it. America uses Israel to fight its battles by proxy.

    Yeah, because muslims were such a huuuuge problem to America before the false flag attack 9/11.

    Invading America's earstwhile ally in the Middle East might have had a teeny weeny effect on this.

    The problem with 9/11 conspiracy theories that it fully denies and delegitimises the very much legitimate anger experienced in the Middle-East against the United States. Keep that in mind.

    What has the wonderful "ally" Israel ever given America, except casualties and debt? They even shot American navy men to death in a ruthless attack on USS Liberty in an attempt to blame the Egyptians so America would go to war with Egypt. Or the Lavon affair, where God intervened and made the bomb explode in the pocket of one of the Israeli terrorists, who wanted to blow up white people then blame the Palestinians. But now this discussion is turning into an all-out Israel bashing, which I'm not willing to take part in.

    I dont mind Israel bashing, but the fact that you are so against it when compared to your otherwise nutty views is interesting. Please, tell me more why you would allow homosexuality but ban bisexuality.

    From Wikipedia.

    The concept of wearing a tin foil hat for protection from such threats has become a popular stereotype and term of derision; the phrase serves as a byword for paranoia and persecutory delusions, and is associated with conspiracy theorists.

    I'm quite confident Christ is sufficient protection against becoming a mind slave to any false ideals, lies, government, satanic ideology (such as communism) or other organization that tries to deceive people by ridicule or lies, without providing arguments for their standpoints.

    Like many Muslim nations there's a Christian minority in Syria. Even after the French broke off Lebanon they still make up about 10% of the population. Syrian Orthodox church and the like. So for this guy pretending to be a religious nut bag that's enough.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Since the US is becoming more and more fundie Christian, then why do we need to worry about the Fed, the Rothschilds, or Zionist commies? It's either one or the other.

    You have to consider there are quite a few here not "Aryan" or "Christian" either.

    "Anti-white jewish neocon" - What is that even meant to be, especially since neocons are the stereotyped of crummy old christian whites male? it just seems a little rhetorically obsolete.

    As for Israel being pro-extremist, this isn't the case, as the status quo is working far better for them as governments are keeping the peace, opposed to a new government who might try their luck, especially if they are more inflammatory.

    It's even better that the Ba'ath party is at least rhetorically Socialist.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
