The child molester figures are actually quite skewed.

It's skewed because everyone knows that there are not very many, and actually
forbidden some places for a minority to become a priest.

OH SHIT!!!

I just read the first line I typed. Please read it again but interpret the word "figures"
as in human figures = persons.

LOL!!

Freud is working over time.

Bunch of dumb fucks need to play one game of Risk and you'll have you understanding of why the Middle East is such a trouble zone. Geographically it is a huge center point on a massive land mass. You have so many different races and religions colliding from all sides here. That's the way it has been for centuries, and the way it will continue to be for a long time. It is a strategic focal point for world domination, and people will fight over it for the foreseeable future. Wipe out all the camel jockeys and you'll justhave someone knew fighting over it. :2 cents:

Yeah, bring back the good 'ol USSR ... we need a new nudnik ...

I do not want to get in fierce debate like the rest of you, but it sure is funny the size of Israel compared to the rest of that region and how they always seem to be involved in the trouble the majority of the time.
I certainly do not know any sort of knowledgable history about that area, but it does seem odd.

I should really research it, it sures sounds interesting. From the ottoman empire (??) to current day issues. Anyone know any goodish books (easy to read)? Yeh also unbiased. I dont want to swallow some of the garbage some of the posters in this thread have swallowed.

Oil
 

Nobody will care about the Middle East if we find a way to get rid of oil dependency. The world's thirst for oil has actually made the problems worse in that part of the world, rather than help it.

have you been taking your pills?

LOL :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Um, can you give me a quick history lesson for the educationally challenged?

Blame it all on the jews.... that's why shiites and sunnis have been murdering eachother for hundreds of years. Riiiiight. :disgust

The middle east is home to many religions with conflicting ideologies who's holy lands occupy many of the same sites. Ex- the Temple Mount / Dome of the Rock.

It's not any one religion or nation that's the "problem", if someone wants to point a finger maybe point it at religion itself. :2 cents:

He's trying to say that the creation of Israel is the root of all evil.

religious conflict is the main core, the rest just are just mobsters.

Whoever owns the chain of stores selling half bricks in the middle east must be fucking loaded.
