That's a very wrong statement. Do you know that the last NATO intervention was nearly 10 years ago? Do you know that most interventions by NATO was on the request of USA? How can you claim that NATO is forcing US to intervene when it's exactly the other way around? No that's not true, the reality of NATO is that unless the USA gets involved in any NATO mission there is a lack of commitment and effectiveness. The UK and France do contribute but everyone basically expects the USA to contribute in military missions or they generally don't happen. Libya is an exception to this where once the USA destroyed Gaddafi's anti-aircraft defences it was the UK and France who did most of the airstrikes So I do believe that NATO without the USA wouldn't be as prominent as it is now

Not at all, you just bitter because NATO bombed some sense into Serbia. But this prevented you guys from committing even more acts of genocide. You really don't seem to appreciate what NATO did for your country, imagine what would have happened if the Bosnian war had been to allowed continue? Imagine how many additional Serbs would be facing war crimes in the Hague, trust me Sarex NATO did Serbia a favour by ending the war. It may not seem like it but NATO intervention was the best long term strategy for stability of the whole region

I think what Sharp_ One is trying to say is that there is a perceived lack of condemnation from the Muslim community whenever there is an act of terror from Muslim extremists Now this obviously varies from country to country but I can say this is definitely a problem in South Africa from my discussions with the Muslim community For example I listen to a very popular and prominent radio talk show called 702 and I have heard very little criticism from Muslim callers about any act of violence perpetuated by Islamic extremists. In fact last week there were 3 separate Muslim callers who phoned in about a discussion around ISIS to say " that we did not know the truth and that ISIS wasn't an Islamic organisation and the CIA was behind the creation of them ". It was straight Vals conspiracy theory nonsense So there is definitely misinformation being spread in the South African Muslim community. We literally never hear condemnation about acts of Islamic extremism and in fact we seem to hear more justification, we still hear the old " its the Americans fault for bombing Iraq and Afghanistan" nonsense. But I do hear criticisms from the UK Muslim community on Sky and other channels so this is not a global view

What does the book say; that the Nazi's are capitalists, socialists, or neither? You guys are all wrong, the Nazi's were fascists. I win

That sux, never nice when that happens

Why haven't you been making backups? Its one of the most important rules if you have pertinent data

Good, so you are accepting defeat. Don't feel like you have let yourself down, it was inevitable. You were effectively fighting against the forces of righteousness and honour....you never really had a chance

I don't think anyone is even remotely suggesting that a person can't be called a Muslim unless he believes in eternal war? I may have missed that one

Don't you think I'm funny, my mom doesn't think I'm funny and some of my g-friends don't think I'm funny. My sense of humour is definitely an acquired taste, you should meet me in person..I think you'll find me funny You don't really come highly recommended. Okay now you funny, I want to be funny like you

You sound like a Neo-Nazi Jadedmeister, are you a Neo-Nazi? It wouldn't surprise me considering how much you hate minorities and don't want them to be represented in games You know, Bruce, I am not sure if you're joking or serious at this point. I'm being very serious, only a Neo-Nazi wouldn't want minorities in games !!!! PS : The usage of or I thought indicates that a person is joking or teasing, so in other words of course I don't think you are a Neo-Nazi

What? You mean it's not fair comparing the absolute worst of one group with those who are considered the "best" of the other group? That's not really fair, moderate can be many things depending on who you ask and in what context, people who call themselves moderate aren't necesarrily moderate, and the more secular muslims who don't give that much of a damn wouldn't bother showing up to one of these things. I don't think so, we mustn't get confused between most Muslims who would go to those types of conferences and follow the Koran literally and extremist Muslims who join ISIS and Al-Qaeda In other words the definition of an extremist or fundamentalist Muslim isn't someone who says men and women should pray separately, almost all Muslims believe that. So those Muslims at that conference would be considered moderate unless they were ideologically aligned to extremist groups

I've decided to treat myself today and get an Eisbein for lunch, I know its unhealthy but I have been fairly consistent at gym so it should be okay

Says who? I know several Christian churches that openly allow gay people as part of there congregation. For them the most important message in the bible is one of peace, being a good person and loving your neighbour. They don't practice intolerance They may not be intolerant, but the religion is. Christianity is very clear on homosexuality; it is forbidden. As I already said though; the religion is dying so it doesn't really matter. Sure I hear you about parts of the bible that clearly say " homosexuality is wrong " but there are also parts of the bible that say "slavery is fine " and " anyone who works on the Sabbath must be killed ", it doesn't mean modern Christians follow every part of the bible. Many churches use there own interpretation for certain things IMO there is no reason this same understanding can't be applied to the view on homosexuality? In other words its fine if someone is gay despite what the bible says?

Yes, if there's any information on mainstream Christian groups wanting to kill homosexuals, I do want you to post links, since that is what you implied. Obviously, you can find any kind of lunatic on the internet, like Westboro Baptist Church. I take that back, I used the wrong words. Certain mainstream Conservative Christian groups in the USA don't say " gay people must die". I apologize for saying that. But they are brazenly and vociferously opposed to homosexuality and consider it an aberration. So they encourage homophobia as they refuse to accept it as part of the normal Christian lifestyle. And as I mentioned this is not all Christian groups in the USA Homosexuality can never be a part of the normal christian lifestyle. Christianity is on it's way out though so it doesn't really matter.

Okay I see what you are saying, well what's interesting is there many expats that work in Middle East companies and in senior positions. I have several good friends who are in 5-7 year contracts in the ME

I'm not getting your point? Etihad is the airline that flies from Abu Dhabi, its a excellent airline and very well priced. Are you surprised an Italian would work for a Middle East airline?

These are probably the same people pushing for governments to have Haram and Sharia laws within the countries that they emigrate to. You could imagine the issue of they take to stoning homosexuals. Christianity is not under scrutiny because is mostly flexible, even the Pope has changed the stance on homosexuality and Muslims seem still stuck to the "Let's do Holy war" stage. If these men are truly the moderate ones I would say that Islam still has about 100 years of evolving to do. I agree with almost everything you are saying. The one issue I have with some Muslims who immigrate to Western countries is that there is an expectation of certain religious rights. Now Western countries generally respect religious freedom but as someone who travels to the Middle East for work I can promise you that there is almost no religious freedom in those countries and your demands for such freedom will be generally ignored And finally I understand why some religions have certain conservative views, like considering homosexuality a cardinal sin. I don't necessarily expect those religions to change but they also mustn't try to force that view on people that live in Western countries who are tolerant of human rights like your sexual orientation

Also what you guys need to understand is that the purpose of this particular conference we are seeing in the video is misplaced IMO The speaker is trying to make a point that in Western countries we object to what we consider " radical or fundamentalist " Islam . So he is saying " you guys are normal Muslims and you believe that men and women need to worship separately ". So now that most people in the room would obviously agree with that he is making the connection " so who are these so called radical Muslims that Western society talks about" But he is misunderstanding that the main objective to fundamentalist Islam is not the fact that Muslims believe men and women need to worship separately but rather the violence that gets perpetuated in the name of Islamic by groups like ISIS and Al-Qaeda Also there is a valid argument that if you live in Western countries you need to respect there laws which generally protect human rights like your sexual orientation, so there is a reasonable view that if you live in a Western country you are entitled to practice your religion but you also need to respect the laws of that country and this can create a dichotomy within some Muslim communities as they grapple with the interpretation of there faith within the boundaries of the laws of that country

No evidence, or evidence you intentionally ignore? http://www.clarionproject.org/analysis/canadian-pm-blasts-cair-ties-hamas There's much more about CAIR on that website. If you claim that's a widespread believe among conservative Christians, you better back that up. Come now WOD, there are Christian groups in the USA that believe that the earth is 6000 years old. I'm not trying to attack Christianity but people often say " look how radical Muslims are" . But to suggest that there aren't radical Christians with very conservative views is just not true. Radical elements exist on all sides of aisle, do you really need me to post links around blatant homophobia that exists in the USA due to religious belief?

To be honest its not such a bad video and I think you have misunderstood the context, obviously the conference was held because Sunni Muslims in Norway are concerned with the characterisation around the word "extremist " that they feel they are being labelled in the same way that Al-Qaeda is. What you need to realise about Muslims is that they take the Koran literally, so for example if you ask a group of Muslims in a mosque " do you believe in this part of the Koran" of course they will say "yes " which is exactly what happened in the video But there types of response is no different to conservative Christians in some parts of the USA, they also believe for example that homosexuality is mortal sign that can never be forgiven and that gay people should be killed

Well get better and I hope its nothing serious

@ Sensuki I've said this before but the commitment that you and others have shown towards the PoE franchise is nothing short of very admirable I will be very surprised if anyone at Obsidian doesn't think that end of the day your intentions and efforts are really to make PoE a better game for everyone Now we just need to you make a few new videos explaining and highlighting how important a Romance implementation will in the PoE 2 and you will truly be my hero
