Whats the big deal anyway? Surely he can just re-register under a new name (if he hasnt already) like he did the last time he was banned? Like a phoenix rising from the ashes...

Poor old Matt/Paul. Id be tempted to quit the internet as well if I had to deal with this bullshit on a regular basis.

If youre going to make sarcastic comments about the political myopia of others then you should try not to be guilty of it yourself. Both 'lashes' cases are horrific, but why is it that the less extreme example is headline news around the world for a week (and counting) and the other only...

Way to miss the point.

Or the 'Big Bad West's' friends... Saudi Gang Rape Victim Gets 200 Lashes

'Nuh go a jail again' is absolutely HUGE in JA right now.

AFAIK smoking has decreased in Ireland since the ban, but there are contradictory reports.

You mentioned France, Germany, Japan and Bosnia. None of which are ex-colonies or third world countries (in the tradtional sense). South Korea - youre only half right there - it was once a single entity prior to the US invasion , so it can't really be called a complete success story can it...

Charming personal insults and temper tantrums aside, can you name a single third world/developing nation or ex colony that has prospered after a US Invasion/occupation? Just one will do. Your position on Chomsky is based on ignorance (youve obviously never read anything other than an article...

Daniel Pipe's is the commentator quoted by VImothy, whose point you described as the 'crux' of the matter. Three points regarding your post. 1. There isnt a conflict on earth that has caused as much destabilisation or has been raging as long as the Israeli occupation. 2. With the possible...

So to use Daniel Pipes' logic we shouldnt be concerned about Islamic terrorism, because throughout history, the number of Christians killed by other Christians vastly outnumbers the number of Christians killed by Muslims. This argument is wrong on so many levels that it's difficult to know...

Your opinions on Mr Chomsky are diversionary, if boringly predictable. It is fine to praise the US and Capitalism (millions dead, but at least they were "democratic"), to praise terror groups like the "CIA" (we wont talk about their members training death squads and torturers) or the occupiers...

Did I say that? Try reading the book in question, examine its sources, and then get back to me. At the same time, please read Chomsky's article and tell me what's so wrong with his reasoning.

:rolleyes: No Im not you numpty. Im simply saying that that particular book is full of illogical arguments, specious reasoning, and is such a blatant example of cold war propaganda that is so ideologically skewed that no scholar would ever take it seriously...

No, because like 'From Time Immemorial' its an utterly discredited load of propaganda. Have you ever read it? Do you know anything about it?
