Historical facts?

Point me to some documentary (i.e. not hearsay) evidence for gas chambers, and I'll revise my position.

Until then, all I see is Soviet propaganda taken as convenient evidence, and an apparently random number of 6 million bandied about willy nilly.

So there's no great difference, sorry.

Well I'm fairly sceptical of the gas-chamber claims for the 'Holocaust', and if I were to voice my doubts in certain European countries I can be jailed for 'holocaust denial', although I have never seen any proof of the existence of gas chambers.

But then that's different, isn't it?

Well, if the people doing the shelling were being "all but completely" starved by my government's actions, I might consider a point of view that differs from your Zionist apologia.

But then again you're a Zionist shill whose comments on this thread show you to be abusive as well as stupid, so I guess you'll just carry on in your delusions.

Palestinians who fuel this conflict want ALL Jews dead, even if they are not in Israel.

No - most Palestinians would be happy to be left alone and given the opportunity to develop as a state.

The only Jews that aren't in Israel that most Palestinians object to are the settlers - they have no right to be on the occupied land, and until this is remedied there can never be peace.

The fact of the matter is that the Palestinians elected Hamas, and the continuing failure of the international community to engage the duly elected Palestinian government, along with the encouragement of the traditionally corrupt Fatah movement and the Israeli blockade of Gaza has led us to the point where Hamas are sending unsophisticated short range rockets against a few Israeli towns, causing very few casualties.

I wonder, myself, how ignorant you have to be to support Israel - their approach of isolating Hamas, supported by the major Western powers, has led directly to the current situation.

The sooner the US stops supporting Israel the better - a full withdrawal to 1967 borders including the dismantling of the West Bank settlements must be a precondition of peace in Palestine, whether Zionist occupied or not.

Sorry, but you're being silly.

here is a reasonable estimate of those killed by Yawveh and his followers - have the Islamists done anywhere near that figure?

Islam is a religion of peace - even the name means 'supplication' - Judaism on the other hand is the most hate-filled evil religion ever spawned.

Please go away and read your history, twit.

The only way to deal with bullies is to fight back.

So you might get punished for it?

Great - take your punishment, but remember that if you've done it right (beat the living crap out of the head bully, for example), nobody is going to want to fuck with you.

Make sure that people know that there's a cost involved in pushing you around, and they'll back off - be prepared to pay the price in punishment from authority, and it's cheaper in the long run.

Kesey mainly used it as a way to get free LSD - if you read The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe, you'll get a feel for Kesey's attitude - he wasn't adversely affected by MK-ULTRA at all, though the acid did fry his brain a little.

Didn't know about Kaczynski, but from his manifesto it's clear that either LSD or severe Aspergers (or both) played a part in forming his world view.

Basically, all MK-ULTRA was was a bunch of experiments in chemical and psychological interrogation methods - nothing to get too hung-up about (especially if, like me, you like LSD).

The scale structure has been known for around 20 years - I first saw it in a product at 3M in around 1989 or so, and the guys responsible (it was a plastic film intended to reduce drag) were full of enthusiasm about it.

Being able to change the texture is pretty cool - to replicate that capability would be even cooler.

Unfortunately, I live in Britain, and have seen our civil liberties under attack from the idiocracy that is New Labour ever since before 11/9/01.

The 28 days was an increase over the (IIRC) 14 days that was voted on every year in Parliament, and was seen as adequate for fighting IRA terrorism - there is no sensible argument for more than the original 14 days, but the fear-mongering plays well with the press, so New Labour assiduously pursue extensions to the detention period.

One day, we (the British people) will have had enough - I hope it's not already too late.

Even 25 years ago, the students would have been up in arms.

We blockaded Westminster Bridge over student grants, ffs!

As an aside, a certain Neues Arbeit immigration minister was president of the NUS at the time, but spent the majority of the demo on top of a bus shelter with the police camera crew, pointing out likely trouble causers.

Yes, the grass was Phil Woolas, and I was the one that started the blockade, because the alternative was to allow the SWP wankers from Glasgow to start a ruck with the Met.

Someone should ask him where he was that day - I bet he'll claim to have been on the front line.
