[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;44009362]On the other hand, everyone and their neighbor has wanted to exterminate him and his countrymen since 1948. The whole situation down there is fucked, it's not just his thats ~evil~[/QUOTE]
Israel won all of those wars and has only become stronger since. If every Arab nation put aside their differences and invaded Israel all at once they wouldn't stand a chance. Israel may be small compared to some of its neighbors but militarily they are by far the most powerful nation in the Middle East. They also have the unwavering support of America, making them effectively invincible. But even if none of that was true and Israel was really under serious threat from its neighbors that still would not justify the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians.

The strength of Israel's military is irrelevant to the fact that everyone and their brother in that area wants complete genocide of every Jew in Israel. For the record, I'm not vouching for Israel and saying they're justified in their actions, and I'm not saying the same for everyone against Israel. I'm just saying the whole situation is completely fucked and it's not any one side's fault alone.
And despite what you think, just because a country isn't apart of NATO doesn't make them little sissy girls. Iran is rather well equipped, Syria was before their civil war, and even Egypt has an extremely modern military, with everything from T-80's to M1A1's.

[QUOTE=Fusnax;44009274]And if I'm right, no one can attack them back because they are under US protection I think, mind that I learned that from polandball comics[/QUOTE]
No one can attack them because Israel has a superior military and always have.
Israel has won every single war they were in, militarily. The 1973 War was lost politically but they were still nearing the outskirts of Cairo when the war was over.
Though much of Israel's victories were simply because their Arab neighbors have never been very well coordinated with one another when they attacked, especially in 1948 when they were more concerned about grabbing land for each of themselves more than seeing Israel wiped off the map.

[QUOTE=fritzel;44011586]pretty sure fetus changes many things in mother in a positive way during pregnancy.[/QUOTE]
No and those are changes in chemistry as a result of pregnancy, not the fetus itself actually doing anything. It's still taking a large amount of resources for itself and giving nothing back.
So it's a parasite by the dictionary definition, but not by the ecological definition.
[QUOTE=Terminutter;44005717]When I'm back home, I'm used to hearing at least 3 helicopters a day, and they're firing on the ranges most days. One of the hardest things to adapt to away from home was the lack of cracking in the distance. I was living near one of the busiest ranges in the UK though, as far as I know. Has a small mockup of a NI town, which was quickly repainted and redecorated to look Middle Eastern. :v:
Pretty cool, the place has speakers, cameras, pop up targets, pyrotechnics and such to mock up a chaotic scenario as the guy in the tower decides.

Why are they shooting at targets with red cross uniforms?
[QUOTE=SEKCobra;44015686]Why are they shooting at targets with red cross uniforms?[/QUOTE]
It's joke targets made by protesters. In response to our (now ex) president's brilliant plan to send snipers with live rounds to shoot unarmed protesters, journalists and medics trying to help them. About 100 people died in two days. That happened even before they were using live ammunition. A couple of weeks back, some of my friends eyewitnessed how a medic, with a huge red cross on his front & back was kneeling, with his back turned to Berkut, to patch up a guy who has been shot with rubber bullets... And was shot a couple of times right in the cross.
It's strangely lively

it was meant for military purposes but never caught on because the military didn't find an use for it. it had a total flight time of 45 minutes before it went out of fuel. why didn't they ever release this to civilians?
