A World Wide Conflict

The news is in the background, as it always is with me...of a threat to British Airlines...

As a student of history, formal and informal, I surmised the 'Crusades' were over, that quest by 'Christians' to retrieve the 'Holy Grail' from the Muslims; was a dead end, like Latin, as a study.

But I think otherwise now...in remorse, if I may as I sense an upwelling, as inevitable as an ocean current of religious fervor and zeal (zealot) begins to emerge, world wide.

This coming conflict is not about ideology or even theology, per se', rather, god forbid, it is about women...

The Western World has granted equal rights to women, through democracy and independence. That is all well and good insofar as we see it from our vantage point.

But the 'Eastern World' loosely defined, Muslim and perhaps other faiths of India and China and Indonesia, do not see it quite the same.

In the Western World, half the children will never know their paternal heritage.

In the Eastern World, all the children have fathers.

It is a wider, deeper more complicated conflict than Catholicism, Communism or Nazism ever was or ever could be.

I do not think the PTB (The Powers that Be; Anne McCaffrey) recognize or comprehend the intricasies of the coming aggression, nor its depth and scope.

The course of action I would recommend would be to isolate the Muslim world and decimate it. But that, as with Hitler or Stalin, will not take place. Instead, we, world wide, will suffer and die, from indecision.

Woe is you.

I knew it had to be our fault somehow...:rolleyes: You never disappoint, Ami.
 
You misunderstand, yet again, Minsue...It be not 'your fault' as you say, rather the continuing evolution of society. It never comes easily...

The 'Great Experiment' of total independence and republican rule that the 13 Colonies ventured forth with at the birth of America, is an equable comparison to the emancipation of women.

The results of one are known, of the other...too early yet to tell...

The Arabs think we made a terrible mistake....?

Fuck having children, anyway. I'll die soon, and all my fucked up genes will end with my imminent demise. Idiot, PMSing, over-emotional, uncontrolled, erratic, unstable, bitter, ugly female that I am.
 
err...and ahem and egads...how does one rationaly respond that?

It being in the 2:32 am-ish here, I think I will retire for the evening and see what tomorrow brings...

adieu....

Nothing seems capable of cranking up a zealot like empowering women. Western zealots or Eastern ones.
 
Ah, but i believe you're not quite correct. The fact that we poor females have achieved a status in society in the western world that the eastern world does not agree with just happens to be the next excuse for cultures to collide. If it weren't for that, another excuse would have been found.

A generalised statement that is not true.

In Lebanon, in the Gaza strip, in Iraq, in Afghanistan - the father figure is often absent, just as fathers were absent from the West during WWII. Whether fighting or just engaging in politics, the fathers neglect their children for a wider interest...

I have a bit of a problem with the statement, for slightly different reasons than Og.

I tend to think of a father as a male who supports his family, particularly his children. Large numbers of males in the Eastern World who follow the fundamentalist Muslim path do not support their families. They instead take charity from organizations like the UN to support their families or they work for terrorist organizations like al Qaida that are mostly funded by charitable Muslim donations. It is difficult for me to regard someone who lives on charity as a real father.

JMHO.
 
Nevermind....I see y'all are just being hard to get along with...I remember now why there were long lapses in my posts here.

toodles...

Yo, ami, old mate!
Good to see you posting again. It gets dull without you.

A woman's place is in the home. It makes sense. Someone has to do it. :D

Unfortunately, I find myself in the woman's place just now.
I make a mean loaf of bread though. Pics to follow!

No. It is better, actually. After wearing the appliance for a couple of days the ortho made new measurements of my mouth to see how it had affected my bite. Then he kept the temp appliance until the real one is ready. Apparently he doesn't want my teeth to shift out of position before it arrives.

I go back next week. I'll be spitting again then.

:cool:

This is a very strange post, RR. Ogg's been in the east. He is consequently referring to things of which he has some clue. This shit ..

it's just the acid talking, isn't it? I mean, it's delusional.

All right cantdog. I will ignore the insult that you throw at me and respond with simple requests.

How is al Qaida funded?
How is Hizb'Allah funded?
How is Hamas funded?
How is Jemaah Islamiya funded?
How is Abu Sayyef funded?

Please, since you know I am delusional, please list the percentages of funding from Muslim charities, drug dealing, weapons smuggling and Other. You would need to know the information in order to know I am delusional. TIA.
 
But regardless, thanks for ignoring the insults. Damn nice of ya.
 
The post is a good fit with amicus's, though. Evidently, with RR, if you don't have proof he's wrong, you insult him if you don't believe every word.

"Arab dads neglect their children because they take UN charity." The previous post evidently struck some subterranean nerve and produced this dark secret. I find it funny as a crutch, man.

Yes cantdog, it is a dark secret. However, I have pentrated the United Nations News Service and the UN thinks they are giving charity to at least the Palestinians.

UN aid to Palestinians likely to increase, but Authority plays crucial role - Annan

Concerned at the prospect of a further deterioration in the living conditions of Palestinians in the new political climate, Secretary-General Kofi Annan said today that the United Nations would most likely increase the scale of its assistance and urged intensified donor support to the people, while stressing that the Palestinian Authority remains critical to averting a humanitarian crisis.
In a message to a UN seminar being held in Cairo, Mr. Annan called for “all concerned” to understand the central role played by the Palestinian administration
