Saying the Zionists were looking for an amicable solution in Israel is akin to saying the IRA were looking for an amicable solution in Northern Ireland. Nothing that Haganah, Irgun or Lehi did pre-48 can be described as amicable. You're right in that the whole situation is extremely complex, but deliberately ignoring a complete section of the political landscape of the time does not make your point suddenly the correct one.

I most certainly would not as any religious beliefs he/she/it/anybody has should always be personal and therefore should always be "my" rather than assuming that everyone else does or should believe the same.

Looks like I was trolled. My point still stands in general though.

Your use of the word "our" is rather arrogant and pompous. Perhaps this is why your faith is such a target of comedians - the arrogant and pompous has long been a staple of the comedy diet.

It's also possible to be anti-Zionist (i.e. disagreeing with the legality of the state of Israel) without being anti-Jewish or anti-Semitic - even though any argument against Israel is immediately branded as such.

Don't know about Nixon, but as a European I can tell you right now that your two parties would be categorised as right wing (Democrats) and far right (Republicans) over here. Certainly neither are left wing.

If an artist is trying to create something to make money then they are doing it for the wrong reason - and it most likely shows (see Rebecca Black). If as an artist you end up making money, then that's great but it should never be a driving factor in the creation process. Which is why every single artist I know (including myself) would still put their music up on Spotify even if they paid nothing at all. It's all about spreading the word, finding an audience, and most importantly people appreciating what you are doing. One person saying they enjoy your art is worth more than any money these companies pay - whether that's 0.00029c or 99c (or whatever) per play.

(This is all IMO obviously)

I like it. It's a bit more "punk" than my style, but we're in the same ballpark.

Thanks. It's comments like this that make it all worthwhile.

http://www.negativland.com/albini.html Major labels have always screwed their artists, which is why I've always attempted to go it alone - even though I've so far been fairly unsuccessful, that's still better than going with the majors.

Given that your participation in WWII was more about making money than killing off Facism, you can shove your moral indignation right where the sun doesn't shine.

Keep on perpetuating the myth and burying your head in the sand. Go look round a typical US city and you'll see plenty of CCTV cameras.

Exactly, the BBC are doing it wrong. The correct response to a US lawsuit in this country is to photocopy your cock and send it off with the words "shove this up your arse" scrawled across it in marker pen.

So how many jars of urine do you have in your collection?
