There are two sides to every argument and both sides usually think they are right.

Ha yes, in other words:
"Don't ever stand up for anything, don't ever fight for anyone, don't ever try to make the world a better place.
It's all useless because there are no objective truths, and no wrong doers. There are always just two sides to every argument and both sides usually think they are right."
What an inspiring message for our kids. Thank you JJ.

America was the first country to free itself from the tyranny of the British empire.
Sadly however, within 2 centuries, they meekly handed the country over to Israel.

#3 I have a feeling that your comment to my comment was trying to be Ironic. If I'm wrong don't read the next bit.
I don't think there is any problem with "There are two sides to every argument and both sides usually think they are right" as being an inspiring message for our children or for anyone for that matter. Why you would tag to that.....

Why not read it as "The likelihood is that one side is wrong or the reasoning of one sides opinion may not be in line with your way of thinking but clearly it is theirs. Before you stand up for anything or for any one side, make sure you know all the facts. In many situations in life BOTH sides are wrong.
Too many people in this world make major life decisions based on very little, if any evidence. The most obvious one is religion, people are so insistent that their religion is the truth and all the others are false that they will go as far as killing other human beings because of their 'Faith' The evidence for any religion is insufficient for any such claims to be made. But all over the world people are killing each other and claiming territory over something that very possibly is nothing but made up and exaggerated stories from a time when superstition was the daily diet.
If this planet was ever visited by an alien race and they were not interested in eating us, we would be the laughing stock of the universe for what a large proportion of the planet still believe in the world in 2019.

#7 no point trying to dig up useless dirt. The principles of the video are based on fact, regardless of who it was who had the courage to bring it to our attention.

#7 When an uninformed American encounters something he does not understand or cannot contemplate,
he labels it communist and moves on.

Well, i‘m pretty sure this is one of the conflicts were both parties are the bad guys. I should include everyone who meddles in this affair to the list of bad guys: iran, the us, ...
I‘m really trying to understand the reasoning behind all this huge deep state that runs the US and half of the rest of the world. They must be really awesome at keeping their numbers as liw as possible and be able to trust everyone they encounter so there is never any real evidence, just informed people on the internet who will assure you that they are definitely right about it.

#10 There is no organized deep state.
It is just the regular plunder that all empires do as a matter of course.
Most folks are too busy trying to make a living and pandering to their petty squabbles to notice.
It's business as usual. The Neocons have been let in the back door and are bashing Iran to provoke a war.
Now that with fracking, the US is self-sufficient in oil, it is quite happy to set the middle east on fire.
Iran will be plundered and sent back to the stone age.
Venezuela will also be plundered.
Plus ça change.

The absolute insanity of this entire thread is mind boggling. So, we're supposed to believe an avowed communist that the far left media in America backed up the Bush administration's pro-Israel position, didn't change its stance during the anti-Israel Obama administration, and the far left anti-everything-Trump press backed up the Trump administration on its pro-Israel position?
You actually believe that this super anti-Trump media is running cover for the administration they openly hate?
On top of this, you are overlooking history. The Munich games. Entebbe. Countless hijackings and bombings. But in your minds, the opposite of reality is reality.
Why don't you just go and gas all the Jews like you want to and get it over with.

This video was posted at snotr during Eurovision Song Contest in Tel Aviv. I watched parts of GlobalVision produced by the Palestinians yesterday. Hope they can participate in ESC 2020 Netherlands at equal terms.

#12 fjwjr, folks here are probably wondering what your obsession with communism is.
I am old enough to remember the shameful period of McCarthyism and I suspect you are a throwback to that.
All US administrations are pro Israel regardless of it's brutality and crimes.
That is because Israel is America's thug in the middle east.
Opinion is not more important than facts. Inform yourself.
Take some timeout this Sunday afternoon and read up on Gaza.
Then spend some time reading upon the West Bank.
Have you had your Whatsapp account hacked last week?
That hack came to you courtesy of the state of Israel.

I hope for absolute indisputable proof that God(s) do not exist, so that every conflict in the world with religion at it's core, will be seen as the mockery that it is and will stop.

If that would happen (proof that no God exists), I think there will be peace on Earth.
