Jimmy Carter on Israel's apartheid policy & the Israel Lobby
"You've proven why you are wrong in one sentence. Sounds like apartheid to me. Anyways, how are Palestinians not Israelis?"
You know what, i cant even begin to argue with you when modern history gets so distorted. So I am not going to try. Its so easy to argue against Israel. Just make up tons of accusations, throw in human rights violations, compare them to the nazis, justify terrorism, distort history, and you've won every argument.
If you want to argue that Israel is an apartheid nation then prove it by showing how it discriminates and racially segregates its OWN citizens. And if you want to argue that palestinians are victims of apartheid then you have to convince me that Israelis don't have any security threat to fear from them. Segregation for security reasons is not Apartheid especially when its an entity that is known for unleashing endless terror.
So far according to the definition of Apartheid Israel is no more guilty than any other nation especially the arab ones including palestinians themselves.
I'm not sure how anyone can accuse israel of apartheid while palestinian christians, homosexuals and women are either tortured, abused, or mistreated on a daily basis.
What I see here is typical anti-Israel bias.
Jimmy Carter on Israel's apartheid policy & the Israel Lobby
This is a load of BS!!Its amazing how people become so stupid when it comes to Israeli politics.
Accoding to Wikipedia, Apartheid "is a system of racial segregation...designed to form a legal framework for continued economic and political dominance"
Its a system used against a countries own citizens. If Israel were to mistreat Israeli Arabs and christians and prevent them from certain rights, not allow them on certain roads for racial reasons then that would be apartheid. Palestinians are not Israeli and for security reasons are not allowed on certain Israeli roads or in Israeli cities whereas Israeli Arabs (muslim or christian) would be permitted.
In fact, palestinian christians are not given the same rights as palestinian muslims.
In Saudi Arabia and other arab countries Jewish and Christian citizens are not allowed on certain roads or allowed the same rights as muslims.

Upvote for the "Fridge". I remember this from the 80s. We would watch this just to see Refrigerator Perry come out.
F-16 Evasive Action Against SAMs-Desert Storm 1991 (2:27)
I agree its pretty frightening. It would be the equivalent of a person being chased by a pack of pitbulls. This is probably the most terrifying thing a fighter pilot would experience.

Man on bike mowed down during filming of COPS (@1:45)
The cop should not have had the car pull over after hitting the pedestrian. He should havekept it where it was so they could calculate how far from the car the victim got thrown. What angle and the whole shpiel.

"They showed that you should begin CPR (ie. compressions of the heart) once they become unresponsive. It must be said that a halt to breathing does not mean by default that their heart has stopped beating. That is to say, if you compress a healthily beating heart, you can cause it to beat irregularly - 'embarrassing' it."
Compressions for a choking victim are not done to get the heart started as the heart is still beating. the compressions are to force the air in the lungs out through the trachea (windpipe).
"The best thing to do is attempt to clear the airway by lying on their side and using your finger before attempting to begin CPR"
The finger technique is only used when you could clearly see the food at the back of the persons mouth otherwise no blind finger sweeps should be performed.
The steps and techniques in the video are up to date and conform with the latest (2006) CPR guidelines.
No offense BoneyD but it looks like you CPR information is a bit outdated.

Deano, the reason the heads not tilted back is that you need both hands for compression. The head may fall forward when you release it. Head tilt is important when performing artficial respirations.

Some Very Important points I forgot to mention. If they are coughing encourage them to keep coughing. The force of a cough is much stronger than an abdominal thrust. Also, NEVER HIT A CHOKING VICTIM ON THE BACK when they are coughing as this could result in a full airway obstruction. Gravity pulls things down. Hitting the back is old school and very wrong.
