		<description><![CDATA[Just for a moment,
 ignore the reality that as Einstein correctly said, &quot;religion is simply childish&quot;, and the fact that space research has now covered billions of miles in every direction without spotting an old bearded bugger in a nightie and sandals, let alone several billion harp-playing angels. 
Let&#039;s pretend instead that there actually is an all-powerful God, able to control earthly events. Well, put yourself in his place, perhaps sitting quietly having breakfast with Mrs God or enjoying a round of heavenly golf, if enjoyment is possible with the certain knowledge of 18 holes-in-one, or whatever God gets his kicks from, and being constantly interrupted by earthly snivelling to change his mind about this and that, which is what prayer essentially constitutes. 
Wonderful though God supposedly is, even he would eventually snap and lash out with a few city-destroying earthquakes, volcanoes, floods and whatnot, and who could blame him? So in the interest of giving God a bit of peace and quiet, everyone of a mystical disposition should show some consideration and knock off this constant skyward braying. It&#039;s not doing you any good.

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;Reid, one of the reasons’ Hitler gained any prominence at all was because there was no feeling of German Nationalism, it had been destroyed after the surrender ending the Great War, he was the one who defederalized the Reich ,centralizing the German government&lt;/i&gt;

Oh it was, by the Versailles Treaty. The Germans suffered more than any other European people during the depression until Hitler came along. That was his base. But it wasn&#039;t destroyed. 

What Hitler did is he used that proportion of every population and we have them too, that under the right conditions they will commit barbarism without limit, and he imprinted the guilt of those few onto the proud and hitherto civilised German psyche.

&lt;i&gt;The feeling of nationalism that Hitler gave the Germans was one of the reasons they went to war, they wanted land back in Poland and in France that they thought was rightfully theirs.&lt;/i&gt;

Set it up. Knock it down.

IMO, that&#039;s what happened. 

Have you read BTW Chester Wilmot&#039;s book on WWII. The Struggle for Europe is brilliant.]]></description>

shocked to see on the menu a dish of &quot;manuka-smoked 
possum throats in a tomato sauce.&quot; They summoned a 
waiter to complain. 

Their waiter looked at the menu. Then he threw it down 
and yelled to the owner in the kitchen, 

&quot;Hey, the printers forgot to translate the menu into 
French again!&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@Ryan,

Pity you didn’t limit your contribution to your self nomination for the role of grammar monitor.

Because in your attempt to rewrite history, you’ve simply regurgitated the same old, Hamas based propagandist shit that usually oozes from the keyboard of Abdul Ahmed Lucy.

And, regardless of the name on the keyboard, the propagandist message you promote, is still shit.

Shalom!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;Doesn’t seem very practical, nor is a helicopter a very accurate platform to try to take out enemies using snipers. &lt;/i&gt;

It is when you do it every night, night after night.

&lt;i&gt;Israel is surrounded by madmen dedicated to its destruction.&lt;/i&gt;

Something for the Christians amongst us:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GINNh15cT08

&lt;blockquote&gt;No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend&#039;s were.
Each man&#039;s death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee. 

John Doone&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The above applies to them as well as us nasska. We are them.]]></description>

For whom the bell tolls,<br />
It tolls for thee. </p>

...&quot;With 0.5 inch sniper rounds at night, using stealth helicopters and infra-red and night vision&quot;.....

Doesn&#039;t seem very practical, nor is a helicopter a very accurate platform to try to take out enemies using snipers.  Not totally safe either.....one of those half inch rounds could ricochet &amp; graze one of the poor Palestinians &amp; then the handwringers would get all upset again.

...&quot;The rockets are never going to stop until Israel,  who has all the options and all the power, decides to change its tactics, because they’re not working. They aren’t. &quot;.....

The Israelis could stop the rockets tomorrow.  All they have to do is flatten everything in Palestine that stands more than 300mm high.  They have the capability &amp; the longer the Hamas retards keep targeting Israeli citizens the more likely it is to happen.  Israel is surrounded by madmen dedicated to its destruction &amp; my guess is that the more ordnance is lobbed over its sovereign borders the more resolute its people &amp; government will become.

The Palestinian problem is not about Palestine otherwise hostilities would have ended long ago.  Rather it is a festering wound kept open by a rabid Islamic ME determined to destroy Israel.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Akaroa apologies BTW if my previous seemed abrupt, it wasn&#039;t intentionally so but on re-reading it seems that way, so sorry for that.

I think at the end of the day Hitler led the Germans down a garden-path. Prior to Hitler the Germans were the most cohesive civilised nation in Europe. He destroyed German Nationalism.

I once heard someone say that it&#039;s interesting how often someone from outside a nation who comes to lead it, is destructive to it. Hitler, Napoleon, Stalin.

Hitler as you would know made two inexplicable fatal decisions. The first of course was failing to close the trap at Dunkirk. The second was dividing the army between Moscow and the oil-fields in the Caucuses. Apparently the forces between Moscow and his army which had to that point completely decimated all opposition were very light. Just as Hitler could have easily captured the entire British Army at Dunkirk, he could have taken Moscow. And take Moscow, you take Russia. And he did that, twice.]]></description>
