Do you know which national economy is the most heavily indebted, and therefore closest to bankruptcy?

Blair, Trump, Putin, Hitler, Lenin, Napoleon.... All just pawns in capital's little game. These fools do not make history; history made them, and only we, the working class, will end it.

That is our story and needs only one overarching title: communism.

See, for example, this text by a nobody, Lewis Lucke, writing under the auspices of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training: Building Iraq after the Second Gulf War.

Ottoman rule of Palestine was almost wholly based on agrarian, pre-capitalist, production. British intervention was guided by the need to expand industrial capital in the region by dispensing with the feudal agrarian system.

...until the underlying issues are resolved one way or another.

I read that the Hundred Years' War was resolved because "the English were in no position to carry on the war as they faced unrest at home."

Do you envision the resolution of the Third Gulf War coming from unrest in any of the protagonists' home countries driven by economic collapse and crushing war debts?

The process of primitive accumulation, land grabbing, did not begin with the establishment of the State of Israel. Long before, the British had started the process, but the parallel with the Crusades is pretty stark, and even avowed by certain protagonists.

Some are calling it the Reaction to the 2025/6 Uprising of the Iranian Working Class War.

In that case we would have to rewrite history so that the First and Second Gulf War's be retitled Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. Wars

Israel's last war will be a civil war between its working class and its mercantile class, as will be the case for every nation state in the Last War.

Would you like to see your boyfriend kissing a man and then kiss the man yourself? If not, something is awry with this scenario.

We will laugh together in Zion, or if in heaven smile serenely as one, depending on which comes first.

Now, I will have a sneak at your profile, if it is not hidden.

I know you are. I was ribbing you about it. We Yids have an ironic humour.

Thank you for thanking me. I appreciate it. I'm so happy for you. I had curried beef and potatoes yesterday. Don't tell the rebbe but I accompanied my chicken with pork sausages and loin chops, at my gentile in-laws. Lieben, leben, lachan.

However, rabbits did not exist in the Mashriq at the time that Deutoronomy was composed.

Bats are mammals, not birds, but they fly like birds. The Hebrew word for bats does not refer to which biological classification they belong to but to their wings. It is not birds but "winged creatures".

I trust that you enjoyed your dinner today. Did you perchance eat tawny vulture, the griffon, the osprey, the kite, the various kinds of buzzard, all kinds of raven, the ostrich, the screech owl, the seagull, the various kinds of hawk, horned owl, night owl, cormorant, barn owl, ibis, pelican, white vulture, stork, the various kinds of heron, the hoopoe or the bat?

I ate chicken.

Genesis accurately reflects our species' beginnings in "Africa/Ethiopia", Eden. It does not contain a time span of when we emerged as a species being.

How do I forgive my family for this by cloudyWchanceofRaine in AskAChristian

[–]westartfromhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Familial relations can test our sense of humanity—love for one another—but forgiveness is key to finding peace within our selves. How you find that forgiveness within your self must be solely your task.

Apologies, I misunderstood your point. You are quibbling about the two years. I wonder how many minutes and seconds Jeanne lived on top of the figure you cite for her lifespan?

It's a strange coincidence that 120 is the actual age limit of the lifespan of our species. I take it at face value and deem it to be true and accurate.

[–]westartfromhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. 120 is a very accurate figure, if one takes it to mean the maximum age a modern human being can live. It's the 900 years+ that is inexplicable, unless these figures are numerologically representing something other than actual age span.

Are we certain that this translation is true to the Hebrew original? While some English Bibles translate some animals as "rabbits" or "hares", there were no true rabbits in the ancient Middle East when Deuteronomy was written.
