Quoted: Who decides who gets those prizes? For prizes in Physiology or Medicine, the selection is made by the Karolinska Institutet Nobel Assembly in Sweden. The Assembly consists of fifty elected members who are professors at the Karolinska Institutet. For prizes in Economics, Chemistry and Physics, the award is made by the Royal Swedish Academy of Science. For the Peace prize, the Norwegian Nobel Committee selects each year's recipient. |

Would it be allowable to say because more whites then blacks have won Nobel prizes whites are a superior? How many of those Muslims VS Jews have had the money to actually attend a school where they could develop their minds? |

This is all true. During Europe's "Dark Ages", it was the Arabs who maintained the knowledge base of Greek Thought (Reason and Logic), which, ironically became the foundation of Western Civilization. Without this, there would have been no "Renaissance". The shame of it is this: The Arabs total embrace of Islam led to an abandonment of the wealth of ideas that they once safeguarded. Their education is now primarily religion-based, the logic and reason that paved the way for Modern Science and Mathematics, is no longer considered important. At one time Logic and Reason were considered to be the foundation of ALL education and study. For the Arab World, this is no longer so. |

From [i]The Myth of Sisyphus[/i]: "I don’t know whether this world has a meaning that transcends it. But I know that I cannot know that meaning and that it is impossible for me just now to know it. What can a meaning outside my condition mean to me? I can understand only in human terms… I do not want to found anything on the incomprehensible. I want to know whether I can live with what I know and with that alone." |

As was mentioned, Camus was nominally Christian; his father was an Altasian who migrated to Algeria as a colonist. He later developed into a sort of nihilistic humanist, who rejected the evil revolutionary tendecies of guys like Sarte.
He was against the French in Algeria, but also opposed to the terrorism. (His mother still lived there.) which led to this semi-famous quote: ---- ''It was this disagreement with revolution that prompted Camus to declare that ``I believe in justice, but I will defend my mother before justice.'' He was talking about Algeria, the liberation of which meant an end to terrorism, not the French retreat. ``The cause of the Arab people of Algeria has never been worse served than by terrorism against civilians, now practiced systematically by Arab movements. Terrorism delays, perhaps irremediably, the solution of justice that will eventually come''. ---- |

The_Macallan is obviously racist and deaf. Apparently when GW was talking about there being a difference between terrorist and Muslims The_Macallan decided to press the fast forward button.
So for those who need to understand what The_Macallan is saying; Muslim = Terrorist Arab = Terrorist Wears turban = Terrorist Palestinian = Terrorist Didn't win as many Nobel prizes as Jews = worthless So remember kids, if your Muslim, Arab, Palestinian your a terrorist. And if you haven't won a enough Nobel prizes, your worthless! |

Quoted: Are we murdering thugs for having glass-bowled Hiroshima and Nagasaki? As I'm sure you are aware, that was done to end a war. The idea was to not have to send in an invasion force. If I remember correctly, that little altercation was started when the Japanese attacked the American fleet at Pearl Harbor. I'm not sure what correlation you are trying to make with the terrorists scum. I can find none. If they used M16's instead of box-cutters, would you still consider them to be murdering thugs? Of course I would. The act of murder is not dependant upon which tool is used. A murdering thug can use rifles, boxcutters or explosives strapped to their children. If the roles were reversed, and AK47's were over here for 20 years, and year after year we warned our enemies to get their AK47's the hell off our land, and we eventually turned our enemies' technology against them, wouldn't you claim ass-kickin? Are you saying that the murdering cowards who perpetrated the 9-11 terrorist bombings are somehow justified????? They were not in any way justified in the attack of the twin towers. This is the type of thinking that makes people (idiots) believe it's okay to strap on explosives and walk into malls. As far as "claiming ass-kickin". I don't believe you are in complete control of your faculties. This is not a title one gives themselves for performing acts of cowardice. Sounds more like what a Jr. High student would say if his football team won. |

If I remember correctly, that little altercation was started when the Japanese attacked the American fleet at Pearl Harbor. I'm not sure what correlation you are trying to make with the terrorists scum. I can find none. I find this correlation: bin Laden believes Islam has been attacked by America. Years ago, he declared that America and Islam were at war with each other, and he demanded the withdrawl of American troops from Islam. He ordered the 9-11 strike to compel America to withdraw from Islam. He wants the American-Islam war to end, but only if America withdraws from Islam. If they used M16's instead of box-cutters, would you still consider them to be murdering thugs? Of course I would. The act of murder is not dependant upon which tool is used.

Quoted: I find this correlation: bin Laden believes Islam has been attacked by America. Years ago, he declared that America and Islam were at war with each other, and he demanded the withdrawl of American troops from Islam. He ordered the 9-11 strike to compel America to withdraw from Islam. He wants the American-Islam war to end, but only if America withdraws from Islam. Where exactly is Islam?? Just curious. [:D] |

Quoted: I misunderstood DScott's comment: Face it: the Jews can kick some ass, and now they're taking names. I beg to differ....hijacking non-combatants on a civilian airliner and using them in a kamikaze-style attack on other civilians is NOT "military-style"....It is terrorism, pure and simple. Such behavior also places the perpetrators beyond the pale and, as such, they are not entitled to any protections under the Geneva Convention or Law of Land Warfare. Put simply, the murdering scum should be killed in the most heinous manner to serve as an object lesson to others. Sadly, they stole that privilege from us, but perhaps Number 20, the French/Algerian will accommodate us.... |

[:D] I assume that at very least he wants the American military out of Saudi Arabia, and he wants American money out of the Israel-Palestine conflict. |

I know what the statement infers, and can draw the logical conclusion. We don't always agree, and do not on this issue, but it's cool. Have fun with this fight, you picked a good one. |
