    Yeah, it's is being said continuously since 1947, yet we are still here! Ahmadinejad was indeed great for our foreign policy, we'll see how things go for here.

    Yes, but not to you, nor the public. I have, lets review together shall we, you replied to this: Where does he claims they are guilty? he does no such thing. Not quite, the OP states that no reason was given yet, your terminology implies randomness and that no reason exists, a fine...

    Russia Detains 300 Muslims During Prayer

    @Developereo We know that they were arrested in a mosque. It's your addition that it was during prayers. It could be just before, or after. Or they could be sheltering the illegal immigrants. Unless I've missed some information? then I'll apologize, and I expect you to do the same if no such...

    Russia Detains 300 Muslims During Prayer

    @Developereo Demagogy, there is a wide spectrum between USA/western Europe liberalism and Soviet gulags, this doesn't serve well in a civilized discussion. Can you link me to the part of the Russian criminal code that says that charges on detainees have to be made public? Actually...

    Egyptian warning over Ethopian Nile dam

    Personally I believe the current situation is not sustainable for Egypt. The upriver countries have both the moral right and the need to use these waters. There are over a hundred million people in the upriver countries. It's a shame that Egypt and Sudan never renegotiated an agreement with the...

    Russia Detains 300 Muslims During Prayer

    I am not sure what's the exact time limit, I am pretty sure it can be extended by court. It's hard for me to say who is right here. the high amount of foreigners leads me to suspect that there may have been some illegal activity there (though not necessarily anything to do with terrorism). on...

    Russia Detains 300 Muslims During Prayer

    The guy asked for non Muslim mass detention, and I provided these as examples of non Muslim mass detention exactly what he asked for, no more. By the way, in the last example there were many people detained who did nothing illegal as the protest was sanctioned by the authorities. Some of the...

    FSA using ISRAEL-Made Arms

    As for OP, this was already discussed in the Syria thread, here's what I said there: That's one funny video! I am sure that it serves it purpose among the random Syrian but it won't do here on the forum. Those mortars are Florescent light bombs. Now why would Israel go through all the trouble...

    FSA using ISRAEL-Made Arms

    @Rustam This is accurate. I would like to add that Iran is also an Israeli puppet, so is Russia and China. We sent curiosity to the moon to make the Martians our puppets. expect an alien invasion that targets our one and only true enemy the country of Andorra. Their masterminds are so genius...

    Americans' narrow view of the world - Tariq Ali [video]

    Unsurprisingly we are down to one line propaganda slogans. Please explain how USA's relation with Egypt for example is "my way or the high way"? even after the revolution when Egypt is no longer going the "USA way" (assuming it did before...), the nations are cooperating still. How about the...

    Americans' narrow view of the world - Tariq Ali [video]

    @Silverblaze You have literally just posted a video saying "we know better than Americans" now you're criticizing him for doing something similar? Not really similar as he was saying I (not all of us) know better than you. So you're a spokesman of Americans now? There is no duty to be...
