A man goes to the market to buy a loaf of bread.
For some reason, the cheapest loaf of bread costs $5.
"That's bullshit" he says.
So instead of paying for the bread, he steals it.
However, he gets caught stealing, and is fined $1000.
The next day, he returns to the market
The price of bread is now $10.
"That's bullshit" he says.
"Besides, these jackasses cost me $1000 yesterday," he says.
So instead of paying for the bread, he steals it.
However, he gets caught stealing, and is fined $1000.

This is the terrorist mentality. It should come as no surprise that they would exhibit this kind of irrational behavior.

Not I! But Faux news didn't shove it down my throat (since Egypt is our ally), so that's probably why.

wow Arbiter, brilliant powers of deduction, the analogy cleared it all up for me

A government goes to the gaza strip to murder some "terrorists"
Collatoral damage includes 10 civilians, (a small price to pay for "justice")
relatives of the civilians see this government murdering their people and say "That's bullshit"
So instead of letting a powerful and oppressive government pillage and murder their people, they decide to fight back
this government then retaliates more people die, so more people decide to take "justice" into their own hands etc etc
and they all lived happily ever after

If you find a "terrorists" mentality so predictable that you can anticipate their future moves, what will break the cycle of violence? Perhaps another completely irrational incursion into Palestine? Are you capable of rational thought arbiter? I'd hate to see someone with such a talent for creating colourful analogies to be divulged as an ignorant hypocrite. Your apothegm is completely devoid of logic, and quite irrational, therefore you must be a terrorist!!

Originally posted by occrider Although they still primarily rely on American jets for their airforce (i believe), their merkava tank

Ya, actually Israel has made their own aircraft, the Kfir most notablly - but is very dated, comparable to a phantom F4. There was also a recent proposal for Israel to create a new modern jet, and Israel create a couple prototypes of these - it was basically the result of stealing the French plans for their planes.

Israel however as it saw, can't afford to make its own aircraft - unless it exports them by the masses. It will have to let the superpowers, or those that pretend to be (the French) try and do it instead.

As for perhaps the point Echo Silence was getting at.

Yes the Israeli army is probably the best army in the middle east - but it's not the largest. These are two different thing. I will concede their superiority - but their superiority is never a garuntee, unless Israel works to maintain this military superiority it will be overcome, and put Israel in dire straights. The Arabs have numbers, and they have money (think oil). The Jews have brains.

As for Tahti, you can't find any info on weapons of mass destructions in the region - as all countries in the region officially claim they don't have any or are very ambigious about it. There are estimates Israel has 100 - 200 nuclear weapons, I've heard reports that Egypt might have 1 or 2, but I don't know how authentic this is.

As for who has a more modern military, I would wager my bet honestly on Egypt, who has been purchasing almost entirely new equipement from the Americans for the past well, long time. Israel has new equipment yes, but even they can't afford to upgrade all their machinary. For instance, out of the 500+ planes in the Israel Airforce, I think only around 15-30 are F15s, the bulk of the fighter wing consisting of out dated, reserve, F4s.

You dickhead, that is the most pathetic racist generalisation i've seen thus far.

If the Palestinians are so stupid and Israelies are so intelligent surely Israel would have figured out a way to resolve this "war on terror".

No you misunderstood me.. I meant the Palestinians have no intelligence services... (and compartively speaking to real intelligence angencies they don't) read it in context.

go back and use your showerhead

You'll have to forgive him about that. He does this to all Pro-Israelis that enter this forum. He assumes that they are all like melech_mike and have no content or intelligence to them. Its just a temporary thing, no worries.


Just think of it as your tahti initation ritual
