No of course not.

I'm happy he's coming to the Netherlands soon, and I live half an hour's drive from where he'll tell Nato what happens next. Smiley

If you want me to say hello, just say so.

Just tell him,
to tell ICE,
go to a town,
listen for a leaf blower,
then check the other 4

leaning on a rake.

I would think it would be fair if you could give me the list of actions of the Mossat from 1951.
So not all that have been in the news but also the top secret actions. And then also the list of all actions of America, of all oil related crimes.

Then we will go through them together tonight and if it turns out that Iran had nothing to defend then I will buy a round.


 
 While you have a point, I feel like foreign policy should revolve around tomorrow and less around what happened decades ago.  This is just pointing out how your grandad broke a window when trying to figure out how to get Billy to stop breaking windows tomorrow.  

 The reason the US has good relations with Germany is not only because we don't bring up Hitler every time we need to negotiate, but because the US and Germany do not have fundamentalist religions stating the other one can not exist.

 The US and Israel are not innocent in any of the Middle East activities, but at the end of the day Israel and the US aren't required to eradicate all Muslims.  This specific issue with Iran having weaponized uranium means only one thing: They use it on Israel.

There must be willingness from both sides to come to cooperation, I see that too.

When I look at Israel, I see a collective trauma from the Second World War. Mossat was founded to ensure that something like that will never happen again.
And that combined with the Jewish mind of profiting from every situation, being the chosen people and that the country was promised to them.
That's quite a hostile mindset!

We look at everything from our Western culture, but if you were to eliminate the Iranian leader, that would be like eliminating the Pope for the Muslim world.

And the West has not learned from previous conflicts. We are the ones who throw stones at the windows in there eyes.


The Muslim world sees the repetition of Iraq, Libya, Gaza, the many coups in Africa.
The genocide in Gaza seems justified to the Americans, but for the Muslim world I can tell you with 99% certainty that they see it as the devil at work.

We could say that religion is the origin of this but that is not the case.

We humans are lived by all kinds of forces. Religion only covers that with a thin layer.
Netanyanu only has to say that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is Hitler and all Jews are hit in their collective pain and presto the hatred bursts out of people's ears.

My point is we are not separate from what is happening in the Middle East, we are also a plaything of the forces that are in man and we contribute to the conflict.

You cannot say that the past does not play a role, because you yourself are still under the spell of the past because you have been shaped by your culture, your upbringing, your traumas, your religion, etc.
It has shaped you and you have identified with it.

Only when you step out of your conditioning (out of your thinking) and meet your hate, fear, perversions and dissolve them.Come home in your body.
Only then do you live in the Here and Now. Only then you are a reiligius person, because there is nothing between you and God anymore.

So be very careful with what you say about killing a leader, it has already escalated too far, we should have gone inside a long time ago. Feel what is going on inside us. And take responsibility for it.

What is happening in the world now is because we are identified with our conditioned mind. The Americans, the Israelis, the Iranians, the whole word. We are all struggling with the same thing.

 I think saying the "Jewish Mind" in itself is fundamentally flawed.  Societies change, collective outlooks change.  It's really no different than people saying everyone in Europe is pro-Colonialism and wants slaves.

 
 We look at everything from our Western culture, but if you were to eliminate the Iranian leader, that would be like eliminating the Pope for the Muslim world.


 Except the Pope isn't preaching for Catholics to actively kill other religions.  Iran leaders are.  That's quite a hostile mindset!  If the Vatican was going to use a nuke on Iran the second they got one, then we would have an equal comparison.


The Muslim world sees the repetition of Iraq, Libya, Gaza, the many coups in Africa.
The genocide in Gaza seems justified to the Americans, but for the Muslim world I can tell you with 99% certainty that they see it as the devil at work.


 Possibly, however none of the Muslims I know consider it "genocide".  Since all Jews are the Devil, it's the Devil at work when Jewish aid workers worked in medical centers in the West Bank too.  Interesting how it's not the devil at work when Palestinians parade a naked Israeli woman around.  How many Palestinians were beheaded and broadcasted by Israel?  

 Israel is not innocent, but a lot of Muslim leaders simply do stupid sh!t.  Beheading people, fine, broadcasting it = stupid.  They should really expect consequences for that.



You cannot say that the past does not play a role, because you yourself are still under the spell of the past because you have been shaped by your culture, your upbringing, your traumas, your religion, etc.
It has shaped you and you have identified with it.


 I think that logic is flawed.  I don't think a human raised Catholic will identify with Catholicism for instance.  The past plays a role, but it does not dictate future actions.  Comparing who's great grandfather killed more does what for nuclear proliferation exactly?  My great grandfather killed Germans, should that be compared to how many Americans my German supply chain director's family killed when negotiating?

When I read stuff that zeven writes as a way to justify moral equivalency between two entities where there is no moral equivalency , I’m reminded of an old story I heard years ago. Whether it’s true or not I don’t know but it illustrates a good point.

Supposedly a British officer in India came upon the funeral pyre of an old wealthy man. They were tying his very much alive widow on top before lighting the logs. When the officer intervened, he was told to stay out of it, that this was their custom. The officer replied it was English custom to shoot anyone who tried to burn a woman alive.

The point is while it’s sometimes difficult to clearly see right from wrong when it comes to certain customs, there are some things which are universally wrong. Burning an innocent woman alive because her husband died is universally wrong. The Islamic terrorist goal to kill and wipe Israel off the map is universally wrong. Israel does not have that same mindset towards the Islamic world. That’s the difference that for whatever reason you can’t seem to grasp which causes you to diminish yourself by trying to link the two together.

So, justifying the your actions against someone else because it's your belief, is wrong
but your actions are based on your belief, which might also be wrong
but who you're acting against, or for, may have another belief entirely

I think I get that more than you do

When everyone has a moral compass, who decides the direction?
Perhaps who is most affected

 This has a low probability.  The one most capable decides.  

 For instance who decides if Israel gets nuked by Iran?  The side that has the best ability to produce their desired outcome.


 We run an exercise with teams going to Africa where they are transporting a female with a baby from one location to another.  They get stopped (or pinned down by resistance depending on the participant group type)  The situation evolves into making a decision to abandon the baby so the rest survive, or take the chance fighting a superior force, or surrender/death.  The baby will almost always die.  

 Why is that?  The humans with the greater propensity to choose and survive will do that.
