I'd disagree with what you say about how the average person feels about war, in the WWI people were very eager to get stuck in at the fighting, especially at the beginning. However, WWII, where the war was more "just", people were far less enthusiastic for the fight - probably because they remembered the first war. I Think it was Homer that said "Men grow tired of love, sleep, singing and dancing before war", I think he was right.
I'd of course be wrong to say that war definitely won't happen, that war is impossible. However, it's an almost pointless scenario to imagine, it'd be like the sun blowing up. Absolutely nothing we could do before, during or after, it's just game over. I still very much doubt we'll see war between nations, uprisings and civil war yea, but not war between nations.
Because she wants you to be what she wants without telling you to be what she wants. Often she's not even aware of what she really wants herself - I can't decide if this is due to the great depth of the Woman's mind, or a staggering level of ignorance and pretentiousness masquerading as depth through female-ego and vanity, or both.
Yea, but the Muslim equivalent of you would say they hate the radical Jews' hatred of Muslims. Something chicken and egg about this.
I just see, looking at Islam and Judaism, two somewhat opposing worlds with no middle way between them, and everything else as the inevitable fallout. I liken the Jewish/Israeli position to my own position - the instinctive dislike towards Muslims en masse of anybody and everybody who has to live alongside them. Only those without grounded experience of Islam in the community start to niche out the blame to "radical" Muslims, those with experience despise the common lot of Islam for all that it represents.
War is not viable. Modern warfare poses too much threat. Two men do not fight when they both know in advance they will be killed, one or both men think will win, that's why you get fights. But in a situation where both men knew in advance that they were to be killed then you don't get the fight, Man is not so mad as that.
I personally think only a moron gives a small child hot soup in a cup. However, companies serve consumers, consumers are people, and people can be morons. We live in a Capitalist world, which serves the mass consumer, so we have to accept the lowest denominator and lower ourselves to that in all that we do.
For all this talk of emotions and feelings and all that noise, the laws of attraction dictate that Women like a Man who could, not necessarily would, but could beat and gouge his rivals and any Man who threatens her.
Jump talking in general terms here, as some women are indeed men on the inside.
Bad people play to their own rules, which is perceived as independence, which is then perceived as strength. A Woman's need for security brings her to danger, because strength and real Men thrive in danger. It's a fine line between a nice guy and a wimp, and women, being as intuitive as they are, are well aware of this.
A sure-fire way of not doing well with women is to attempt to emulate what a Woman "says" she wants in a Man. Women do not, as much as they claim, actually want to be obeyed. What they do want is to battle your will to prove your own indepedence, and let you earn the right to be her Man by being a Man.
I can't see China arming insurgencies, it's too crude, mores the better to exploit the American military power in the interests of China rather than risk creating fresh hostilities between them and the world's anti-imperialists. China won't do what America did with the Taliban. If she's smart she'll turn America's horrendous global reputation to their own advantage in order to deflect animosity away from themselves.
The Chinese, politically, and as an entire culture have the capacity to see beyond the next five minutes, at the least I don't see them repeating the same political incompetence characterised in America's declining years.
We're all going to be lackeys of China in the end, our standard of living will be akin to that of the Chinese labourer. Keeping the Euro is just the smoother road towards peasantry.
