Yes, activism helps. Not a lot on a global scale all at once, but a lot of small changes make a massive difference to real people. I see this firsthand as a member of a small party here; we punch way above our weight because we actually mobilize people.

Everything you said about the IMF, debt traps, and the global economy has truth
to it. But treating it like an unchangeable 'death cult' means giving up before the fight even starts. Change has never come from the top down; it’s always pushed from the outside. The labor rights we have, environmental regulations, local consumer protections, none of that was handed down by benevolent bankers.
It was clawed back by cynical, tired voters who still chose to do something rather than shrug and say 'it's all a cartel.' Cynicism feels smart because it's never wrong about how bad things are, but it never built anything better either.

If they didn't think that your opinion matters, and they had it all in the bag, they wouldn't spend so much money on campaign ads for Republicans and corporate Democrats. They also wouldn't have the corporate media attack the left constantly. There's a good reason why the left is their enemy, and it's not to defend the rights of working people.

And why did you vote for Trump then, if everything better is impossible?
Trump promised to change EVERYTHING. If you really believed that nothing will help, why did that message resonate with you?

Or was it only that Trump shows his hate for all the people you hate?

You think that the government needs to spend NOTHING on average people and give the billionaires full control over everything, to punish people, if they
are not working hard enough. Where does that leave YOU?



By Ananas2xLekker 15,Oct,26 15:44
Is that the MAGA spirit? "We cannot do it, it costs money!"
Well, make you billionaires do it then. That's what you say you have them for.



By Ananas2xLekker 15,Oct,26 15:40
So, you just accept this as a force of nature.
That's exactly what they want you to believe.
Then you don't hold them accountable.

It's not just imported food. Your food manufactures have been processing garbage
for decades. Your country allows chemicals and processes for your food that other countries are mortified about. That's because it makes the manufactures more profit.
That is more important than your health. Don't act like this is something new.



By Ananas2xLekker 15,Oct,26 15:24
Everyone who doesn't have a little soil to do so, is shit out of luck then.



By Ananas2xLekker 15,Oct,26 15:20
That's you just repeating people who want you to believe that there aren't any choices.
You have choices. The choices of voters got you where you are now,
and the choices of voters can turn you back on a better track too.

Lots of politicians on the the left do not take corporate money and there are more of them now. Some libertarians also do not take corporate money, but they are a dying breed. Overturning Citizens United isn't easy, but they got it in too.

A week after the first billionaire who makes money of 3D-printed food bribes Trump,
all of MAGA is going to accept it, eat it and defend it.

MAGA loves an immigrant billionaire who makes his money from electric cars
and space shit, paid for with your tax-dollars, because he turned Twitter
into the source for their daily rage-bait.

And then what? How many educated people will they still need?

Will it come with the same poop bacteria and parasites that are in your food now?

Gas prices are important for you, I understand, but why fight for pennies
at the pump, if you have to sell your car to pay for your health?

You are cheerleading a system that is actively costing you everything.
Can you actually afford your (next) life-saving medical procedure(s)?
Healthcare should be a service that you have already paid for with your
decades of hard labor and tax dollars. Yet, it is deeply tragic to see you
willing to face financial ruin (and possibly death) to keep away the very
protection that you earned.

I just hope the billionaires you defend turn out to be just as loyal to your health
as you have been to their bank accounts.

SURVIVAL MARKETS for the masses: When you destroy regulatory agencies
to boost corporate profits, you create a deadly food system for the poor, while
the rich remain completely untouched.

The Trump administration and HHS Secretary RFK Jr. actively gutted the system by firing thousands of FDA employees, cutting the number of food safety inspectors in half, and defunding disease surveillance. The result is a massive, record-breaking outbreak of Cyclospora parasites from human fecal contamination in the country's mass-market lettuce supply, alongside rolled-back meat safety checks.

Donald Trump, RFK Jr., and the corporate elites who lobbied for these cuts aren't eating that poop-contaminated lettuce or parasite-ridden meat. The ultra-rich don’t shop at regular grocery stores or eat mass-produced food affected by these supply chain collapses. They buy from exclusive, hyper-expensive organic boutiques that source from private, highly verified farms, or they have personal chefs who vet their food.

The elites use their political power to eliminate the regulations that keep your food safe just to grow their stock portfolios. Then, they use that extra profit to buy their way out of the toxic reality they just created for everyone else. They privatize the safety and socialize the poison.

You are imagining a fantasy world where perfect market competition instantly forces corporations to drop their prices to pennies the second wages go down.
In the real world, without labor leverage, you don't get cheap goods, you get a Dual Economy. (An economy split between luxury production for the ultra-rich
and survival markets for the impoverished)

When you strip workers of all buying power, corporations simply stop making products for the masses. Why build millions of affordable cars or houses if the workers can't buy them anyway? Instead, the entire economy shifts to service
the only people who still have money: the hyper-wealthy elites.

Industries stop competing for your pennies and start competing for the billions
at the top. The economy shifts its resources entirely toward:
1. Luxury production: Yachts, mansions, private security, and high-end tech.
2. Asset hoarding: Buying up all the land, housing, and resources, and renting them back to the impoverished workers.

Mass-market products don't become "cheaper" to match your crashed wages; they just become lower quality, while basic needs like housing remain as expensive as possible, because you must have them to survive.

So, this completely contradicts your economic arguments, but it doesn't contradict your personal opinions.

IF you are actually perfectly fine with a system where a handful of billionaires exploit the rest of humanity like modern-day slaves, just say so.
Stop trying to twist the laws of economics to justify it. Once you admit that,
we can finally have a discussion about what this is really about: why on earth
do you want a world like that?

The average property tax in the US:

"The average effective property tax rate in the United States is approximately 0.8%
to 1.1% of a home's assessed or market value (with a national median rate hovering around 0.9% to 1.02%)"

Funny how you switched an uncommented image with the quote
"Normality is a paved road: It’s comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow",
that was attributed to Vincent van Gogh in your picture, to your Zionist propaganda.

Funny and a good trick. A RAT MOVE, but you tricked me.
It just shows that you cannot be trusted on ANYTHING.



By Ananas2xLekker 14,Oct,26 17:11
I’m actually quite flattered that you want to honor our respected Dutch artist
with this beautiful quote! However, I have to correct you: Van Gogh unfortunately
never said or wrote this.

The misconception started around 2009, when a museum in Basel used this phrase
on the flap jacket of a Van Gogh exhibition catalog without a proper source. The internet did the rest, permanently gluing his name to it. In reality, the metaphor is much closer
to a line from the 19th-century French writer Émile Zola.

The underlying sentiment does resonate with my philosophy on life. For me, walking off the paved road means refusing to adopt off-the-shelf opinions or blindly follow a crowd.
My views and thoughts are entirely my own, shaped by careful reflection rather than consensus. It requires independent thought, but I can highly recommend it.

Wow, Donald Trump’s new White House press secretary,

The Vatican? Who is talking about the Vatican?

Anyway, since you have no counter arguments, that settles it.

Character attacks are your only 'argument', bozo.

The judge’s political background is a cheap political talking point, not a legal defense. Under the Fourth Amendment, a search warrant is trash unless there is actual probable cause of a live, unexpired crime. Signing off as a registered Democrat means nothing.

For all we know, this Hillary Clinton donor is a corporate, centrist Democrat, a faction that despises progressives like Ilhan Omar just as much as any Republican does. Judges make errors and get misled by ambitious prosecutors all the time. Since the affidavit is sealed, this article has zero facts and relies entirely on political spin to ignore constitutional law.

"The director of the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library noted that they originally listed 1981 simply because it was "widely available" on Wikipedia at the time, and they had published the date without official documentation."

Even IF she did become a citizen with false papers, the statute of limitations for that is 5 to 10 years. That means that a judge cannot legally issue a search warrant, because the only underlying crime is entirely expired.

If she did that, she could loose her citizenship, but that would be a civil lawsuit,
not a criminal lawsuit. A judge is ONLY allowed to issue a search warrant for that, if prosecutors can convince the judge that a live, unexpired crime is actively occurring. You only have presented a weak case for an expired crime from 26 years ago.

Even IF they have probable cause for this, the judge has still broken the law by issuing this search warrant. The official process is that the Department of Justice (DOJ) must file a civil lawsuit against her in a US District Court. The government faces an exceptionally high evidentiary bar. Under Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) § 340(a), they must present "clear, convincing, and unequivocal" evidence that citizenship was obtained illegally, or via the concealment of a material fact or willful misrepresentation. A federal judge, not an immigration agency, must evaluate the evidence and make the final ruling. If the judge rules in favor of the government, the individual's naturalization is revoked, usually reverting their status back to a Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) or making them subject to deportation proceedings.

If the judge broke the law by signing the search warrant without a valid, unexpired criminal basis, the government would have severely damaged, if not completely destroyed, their criminal case against her. In an unlawful search, the "exclusionary rule" applies. Any evidence obtained during an illegal search, including the physical boxes of documents agents removed from her home on October 12, 2026, becomes completely inadmissible in court. If the government's primary evidence is thrown out, prosecutors usually have to drop the charges because they no longer have a case.

You claim Europe is 'destroyed,' yet European countries consistently rank highest globally for quality of life, healthcare, and safety.

You claim Europe didn't help Ukraine or support a ceasefire, when Europe has given tens of billions in military aid to Ukraine and European leaders have repeatedly negotiated for peace and hostages.

You claim Trump tried to 'protect the people of Europe,' but your clown is actively frustrating the resistance to Russia, by bowing to Putin's wishes and buying diesel from him. You are literally funding the adversary you claim to oppose.

We had the Iran nuclear threat completely covered and locked down. Your 90% panic is just repeating the most obvious Netanyahu lie ever invented. Trump is the one who unilaterally destroyed the deal, and now your clown expects us to jump into his stupid war just to distract people from his massive failures at home.

Trump has achieved absolutely NOTHING. Iran completely embarrassed him.
The very citizens he claimed he wanted to 'liberate', now hate the US even more.
His reckless approach left the world with zero guarantees that Iran won't or can't build nuclear weapons, while his 'genius' strategy only succeeded in pushing them straight into a tighter cooperation with China and Russia.

Trump acts like he can just demand a 'better deal' whenever he wants, but why
would they ever trust the paper the US signs again? The US showed the world it is completely untrustworthy and backward. Europe is now the only one left to clean up his mess and drive actual diplomacy.

Your claim that 'the Euro created a monopoly' makes no sense either, a currency
isn't a business, it's a medium of exchange. It is economically illiterate to call a
shared currency a monopoly.

You claim Putin wants 'communism' back, showing you don't even know what communism is, Putin is an ultra-capitalist oligarch, not a Soviet Marxist.

As for the 'communist totality' in the US, you are cheering for a leader who openly talks about being a dictator on day one, suspending parts of the Constitution, and using the military against American citizens. You are terrified of a fictional globalist boogeyman, while actively begging for actual authoritarian rule at home. Wake up!



By Ananas2xLekker 14,Oct,26 11:45
Oh, so the fact that he signed off on warrants is proof
that the judge determined probable cause.
THAT HOLDS TRUE IN EVERY CASE AGAINST TRUMP TOO, I ASSUME.
DUMBASS!!!

French workers DO work, and when they do, they invest their time, health, and labor into the economy. That is their investment. Why should corporate elites be entitled to record profits off that labor, while the workers are 'entitled to nothing'?
You're literally bragging about your own exploitation.

If everyone had your submissive mindset, we’d still be working 16-hour days
in coal mines for pennies.

"this was written in the 7th century and its in the quran"
THIS is what I know. WHY DOES IT MATTER??

Here are some other 7th-century myths:

1. The Seven Sleepers of Ephesus
A group of young men flee religious persecution and hide inside a cave, where God places them and their dog into a deep sleep to protect them. They remain asleep for over 300 years, with the text explicitly detailing how God periodically rolls them from their left to their right sides to prevent their bodies and clothes from rotting, while their dog keeps watch at the entrance with its paws stretched out. Upon waking, the men believe they have only slept for a single afternoon, discovering the truth only when they attempt to buy bread in the city using coins that are centuries out of date.

2. The Iron Wall of Dhul-Qarnayn
A legendary king travels to the physical ends of a flat earth, reaching the furthest western point where he witnesses the sun setting directly into a dark, muddy pool of water, and then the furthest eastern point where the sun rises over people who have no shelter from its heat. During his journey, he encounters a terrified population plagued by the apocalyptic tribes of Gog and Magog, and he protects them by pouring an immense barrier of molten iron and copper between two mountains, sealing millions of these destructive creatures behind the wall until the end of days.

3. The Transmutation of the Sabbath Breakers
The inhabitants of a coastal town attempt to bypass strict religious laws that forbid fishing on the Saturday Sabbath by setting up their nets on Friday evening and harvesting the trapped fish on Sunday morning. In immediate response to this theological loophole, God intervenes and instantly mutates the entire deceptive population of the town into physical apes and swine as a permanent public punishment for their trickery.

4. The Voyage of Cesair and the Birth of Ireland
Before the Great Flood, Noah’s granddaughter, Cesair, is denied a place on the Ark because of her pagan beliefs. Under divine guidance, she builds three giant ships and sets sail across the uncharted oceans with fifty women and only three men, including her father Bith and the shapeshifter Fintan. After a perilous voyage, they land on the uninhabited shores of Ireland, exactly forty days before the deluge begins. When the global flood finally hits, the entire colony drowns except for Fintan, who survives for thousands of years by magically transforming into a salmon, an eagle, and a hawk, witnessing the entire subsequent history of the island and the arrival of the magical Tuatha Dé Danann warriors.

Do you believe that they are all true, because they are from the 7th century?

OMG, what are you guys babbling about? Guess_Who is just copying random shit about WWII, that makes zero sense in any context, because he doesn't add any actual arguments or conclusions. And phart is just spouting every conspiracy theory that his algorithm's rabbit hole threw up in his face.

By sheer numbers, Hitler's regime was far worse than Unit 731. Bias against Asians seems to be the only reason to claim otherwise.

In some ways wars advance science, but in other ways wars throw back humanity for decades. The most useful advances in science are made during peacetime, when governments are not wasting money and people on murdering other people.

Believing that Hitler's scientists developed a general cure for cancer is based on complete ignorance of biological science. Cancer is not a single disease, it is hundreds
of different diseases, driven by distinct genetic mutations that cause cells to divide uncontrollably, in lots of different ways. You cannot cure it with a single, general silver bullet. To even attempt a universal fix, you would need advanced, targeted gene therapy to rewrite DNA at a cellular level. That technology was lightyears out of reach in the 1940s, and it remains one of our most complex scientific frontiers today. There was
no hidden cure, it's bullshit.

Your country keeps records!!! Journalists can request access to them.
You being in the same country doesn't provide you ANY more information.

There was NO reason to raid her home.

The specific identity of the judge who signed off on the search warrant remains sealed / anonymous in public court documents. If he is protected by your regime, he faces no risk at all.

You're only creating precedent. Never cry about the rights of your representatives
in the future, when accountability is coming for them. I'll laugh my ass off.

The Parting of the Red Sea is based on a much older story.

Enuma Elish (Babylonian) — c. 18th–12th Century BCE
• The Myth: The god Marduk splits the primeval water goddess Tiamat in half to create the ordered world.
• Biblical Adaptation: The writers transformed this cosmic battle into a historical event, where Yahweh splits the sea to conquer chaos (Egypt) and create a path for His people.

The Westcar Papyrus (Egyptian) — c. 1600–1500 BCE
• The Myth: A royal magician folds one half of a lake's water onto the other half to retrieve a lost jewel from the dry lake bed.
• Biblical Adaptation: The visual imagery of standing walls of water exposing the dry floor was localized into the Exodus narrative.

The Baal Cycle (Canaanite) — c. 1400 BCE
• The Myth: The storm god Baal defeats Yam (the god of the sea and chaos) to establish his kingship.
• Biblical Adaptation: Israelite writers used the exact same poetic language. Yahweh uses a powerful wind (a storm-god attribute) to conquer Yam (the Hebrew word for sea) and demonstrate His supreme authority over rival Canaanite deities.

The Book of Exodus (Hebrew Bible) — c. 6th Century BCE
• The Synthesis: Written down much later (largely during the Babylonian Exile), this narrative combined these well-known regional motifs into a single historical epic to prove that their God, Yahweh, controlled the elements.

Divine Land Allocation is also a very ancient theme.

Sumerian & Babylonian Royal Inscriptions — c. 2500–1800 BCE
• The Myth: Gods like Enlil or Marduk directly assign fertile territories, kingdoms, and city borders to specific kings and their peoples to establish divine order.
• The Adaptation: The concept of a supreme deity drawing physical borders and handing a specific piece of earth to a designated group was already a standard legal and religious practice in Mesopotamia.

The Egyptian Conception of Sacred Soil — c. 2000 BCE
• The Myth: The creator god Amun-Ra designates the fertile Nile valley specifically for the Egyptians since the creation of the world (Zep Tepi), while framing outside lands as chaotic.
• The Adaptation: Regional nations adopted the Egyptian idea that living on a specific, god-given piece of land was a requirement for spiritual purity and divine blessing.

The Hittite and Amorite Land Claims — c. 1800–1400 BCE
• The Myth: Migrating Near Eastern tribes claimed their storm gods (like Tarhunz or Amurru) commanded them to march into, conquer, and settle specific fertile valleys.
• The Adaptation: Invading or migrating groups consistently used the "divine mandate"
to 'legally' and 'morally' justify taking over lands that were already occupied by others.

The Hebrew Bible & Later Islamic Texts — c. 6th Century BCE & 7th Century CE
• The Synthesis: The biblical writers (and later the Quran) took this ancient, universal political tool, using a god to legitimize territorial ownership, and tied it to their own monotheistic covenant. The land was no longer just won by strength; it was an inheritance granted by the one true God based on religious obedience.

From a literal, historical perspective, this recycling undermines the claim of unique divine revelation. It demonstrates that these stories are human literary products, evolved folklore rather than eyewitness history.

Far from proving history, this continuous copying proves something else: that myths
are just tools humans invent to claim territory and assert dominance over rival cultures.

She is not complaining and causing trouble, she is fighting for all Americans to have
a home they can afford, healthcare, education, childcare and food for children of poor parents. While Trump is closing hospitals in rural areas, she is defending them.

Ilhan Omar entered the United States legally as a refugee in 1995 when she was a child. She became a US citizen five years later, in 2000, at the age of 17 through derivative citizenship via her father's naturalization.

She did not marry ANYONE to "get into the country." Her legal entry and her US citizenship were both fully established long before her 2009 marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi (the British citizen at the center of the rumors). She was already a US citizen for nine years at that time.

Trump is a fucking liar and a racist, and you are too, if you keep supporting this lie.

You can keep repeating what you said, but YOU are not accepting that the holocaust is a genocide, by not accepting the authority that defines genocides.

"The God Delusion" from Richard Dawkins mentions the following:

Chapter 7, Page 248: "The conquest of the Promised Land is presented as a series of divine commands to exterminate every living thing, to leave nothing that breathes. This is not just bad morality; it is a terrifying blueprint for ethnic cleansing, justified solely by the claim that a particular piece of territory was 'promised' to a specific group of people by their God."

Chapter 8, Page 259: "The take-home message is that 'thou shalt not kill' applies only to the in-group. Religion is a label of in-group/out-group identification, and it is a potent source of conflict... It is hard to see any solution to the problem as long as children are systematically brought up to believe that they are 'chosen' or 'special' by virtue of their ancestors' religion."



By Ananas2xLekker 13,Oct,26 16:57
Using bullet points and formal terms creates the illusion of a logical argument, but you are just making assertions without proving them.

A logically sound moral system cannot just begin with high-level behavioral traits like 'honesty' or 'integrity'. Every coherent framework requires a foundational premise,
a root from which all secondary values are derived.

As a secular humanist, my framework is explicitly built on a single, non-negotiable axiom: the intrinsic value of human existence. From this ultimate foundation, the right to human well-being and subsequent ethical behaviors naturally and logically follow.

You, on the other hand, are presenting the branches of a tree while skipping the root entirely. You define what you believe character is, but you fail to explain why these specific traits hold any objective worth. Without a foundational premise that cannot be dissected further, your definitions of 'virtue' and 'lack of character' are not a logical system, they are merely arbitrary, personal preferences.

(Phart, if you want to know who has a better argument, ASK GROK!)



By Ananas2xLekker 13,Oct,26 16:45
I understand you, but I don't AGREE with you, because you have no consistent system of morality and you are incapable of logical reasoning.



By Ananas2xLekker 13,Oct,26 16:39
By your OWN logic, I could ONLY call this genocide, if I saw it myself.

Unless you accept the authority that decides what to call a genocide and what not, YOU are denying that the holocaust is a genocide.

The Fourth Geneva Convention (1949). The US ratified this treaty in 1955.

What you are going through right now are the horrible ideas of Trump.
He is a reverse Robin Hood; he steals from the poor to give to the wealthy.

Even if that is true, is that supposed to mean something to me?
That whole area used to be ethnically diverse for millennia.
If these are the standards, then OK, they passed the minimum.
That's no argument against the ethnic cleansing going on for decades.
Palestinians were robbed from their houses, house by house, street by street.
Anytime there was some form of protest against that, it was used to swat them down and steal more of their land. Later the strategy with walls was introduced. Put a wall around them with armed guards at the entrance. Starve them out so they have to leave. Kick out the remaining ones and take the area. Next area. This is how Israel stole most of the land. Any protest was just met with overwhelming violence. In the meantime, Palestinians were just murdered for fun. When you control the law, you can kill with impunity. The numbers are a bit lower, but the level of evil is on par with the holocaust. And you disgust me for supporting it.



By Ananas2xLekker 12,Oct,26 16:45
By that logic, we cannot call the holocaust a genocide either.
I was not there in Germany, to understand their reasons. Were you?

Funny how your definitions of ownership change when it serves your country.
Remember how we talked about survivors on an uninhabited island? You said that one of them would own a crate of supplies if they found it. Now it's OK to literally murder people in a country that owns the natural resources?

You actually proved my point. I completely agree with you about the average Confederate soldier. Most of them didn't own slaves; in fact, the institution of slavery economically harmed poor Southern whites. They were manipulated by a wealthy elite, who absolutely DID fight to maintain slavery.
Just like modern terrorists who are brainwashed by their leaders and have very little left to live for, those Confederate soldiers had nothing to gain and everything to lose. They were easily turned into pawns. They bravely fought and died, for what they believed was right. It just happened to be an atrocious lie.

My question to you is: if you can clearly see how poverty, trauma, and manipulation drove those soldiers to fight, why can't you apply that exact same human psychology to people today? And more importantly, you need to realize that you don't make these people less extreme by inflicting even more suffering upon them. Escalating the misery only feeds the cycle.

I don't care about the education of Ben Shapiro, because he is a grifter.
He talks that fast, so people don't have time to recognize all the lies.
Only use an argument from authority with people who are credible and honest.

• Against Full Citizenship Rights: Voting rights mask institutional exclusion. While Arab citizens hold passports and vote, they face systemic discrimination in housing and zoning. The Admissions Committees Law legally permits hundreds of community towns to reject Arab applicants based on "social suitability," enforcing de facto segregation.

• Against the Claim of Coexistence: Coexistence is fractured by structural inequality. Daily interaction exists, but it takes place within a system of deep economic disparity. Nearly 39% of Arab families live below the poverty line [Israel Democracy Institute] due to decades of underfunded municipal infrastructure, segregated school systems, and restricted land allocations for Arab towns.

• Against the Apartheid Critique: Sovereign borders are a legal fiction in human rights analysis. Restricting the debate to Israel proper ignores the reality that one single authority—the Israeli government—maintains ultimate military, economic, and bureaucratic control over the entire territory from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, managing a fragmented but singular hierarchy of ethnic dominance.

• Against the Dismissal of Media Controversy: Constitutional law explicitly codifies inequality. Shapiro's dismissal of critics ignores the 2018 Nation-State Law. This constitutional Basic Law explicitly declares that national self-determination is "unique to the Jewish people" and downgrades the Arabic language, proving that inequality is not a media myth, but a constitutional reality.

You didn't want your politicians' phone toll records subpoenaed, signed by federal judges and the DOJ, when they were suspected to be involved in the ONLY insurrection in your history, but you would RAID a representatives HOUSE for an alleged issue

Ilhan Omar came to your country at the age of 12. Around 1991, age 8 her family fled Somalia's civil war and she spent approximately four years in a refugee camp in Kenya.
Omar came to the US as a child refugee through the refugee-resettlement process.
You would hold her accountable if the papers were not perfect back then?

I don't dignify your accusations with a reply.
When I claim something, you want evidence.
If you claim something, bring your evidence.

The only one I heard was about 72 GRAPES.

The argument originates from a controversial 2000 book, The Syro-Aramaic Reading of the Koran, , written by a German scholar of ancient languages using the pseudonym Christoph Luxenberg. Early Quranic Arabic was heavily influenced by Syriac-Aramaic (the dominant language of the Middle East at the time).
The word Houri: In the Quran, the companions in paradise are called Houri. In traditional Arabic, this is interpreted as dark-eyed, pure maidens. However, Luxenberg pointed out that in Aramaic, hur means "white" and was often used idiomatically to mean "white grapes" or "raisins".
Luxenberg argued that "white grapes" make more sense because other verses describe paradise as a lush garden filled with flowing water, shade, and abundant vineyards. Furthermore, ancient Syrian Christian hymns described heaven using the exact imagery of being served crystal-clear grapes.
While it is an intriguing theory, the vast majority of secular Western historians and Islamic scholars view it as highly unlikely due to the rest of the text. The Quran and early commentaries don't just use the word Houri; they explicitly describe these companions using distinctly human, feminine terms. For example, the text describes them as having "modest gazes," "beautiful eyes," being of "equal age," and being untouched by man or jinn. White raisins cannot have modest gazes or eyes.
The number 72 is never actually mentioned in the Quran. The number 72 comes from later sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (Hadiths). If the original Quranic word just meant "grapes", it is highly implausible that generations of native Arabic speakers, living immediately after the Quran was written, somehow collectively forgot their own language and invented a hyper-specific narrative about 72 wives.

Personally, I agree with Jeff Dunham's puppet Walter: "Seventy-two virgins?
Why not 72 slutty broads who know what the hell they're doing?"

"a viable solution to replace what is being tried"?
I don't think the US at any time tried anything close to peace making,
if you keep killing hundreds of thousands of people to get to the oil
under their feet and topple their more democratic moderate governments,
because they don't want you to have their oil for cheap.
This monster is your creation, and the world is suffering for it.

People who are doing well are not easily convinced to sacrifice their lives
over a fairytale. However, if you murder their family and friends, and make them
live in poverty, they are much more acceptable of sacrificing their lives to kill
the people who did that to them.

Sure, if you think "research" means anything from a quick Google search or watching YouTube videos to reading opinion pieces.

In your case "Research shows clearly" is simply as a rhetorical tool to make emotional, politically charged social media opinions sound authoritative.
Actual academic and geopolitical research contradicts or complicates the text's claims in three ways:

• Movement Restrictions: Research and official data show Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza do not have free access to Israel. They are subject to a strict military permit system, checkpoints, and blockades. Only Arab individuals who hold actual Israeli citizenship can move freely within the country.

• Human Shields: International organizations (like the UN) have documented that militant groups place military infrastructure near civilian areas. However, the text's specific phrasing ("guinea pigs", "virgin goats") is inflammatory rhetoric, not scientific findings.

• Socio-Economic Status: It is true that many Arab-Israeli citizens become successful surgeons, lawyers, and leaders. However, socio-economic research notes that these communities still face systemic inequalities, lower municipal funding, and higher poverty rates compared to Jewish-Israeli demographics.

I have not seen that many comments agreeing with you.
Most of them certainly have similar opinions, but I don't think
that anyone really likes you much.

WATCH FULL: Jon Ossoff, Mike Collins in Georgia US Senate debate

Ossoff ripped him a new one. And Collins just looks weak too.
Dude, what are you writing? What are you looking for in your papers?
