Oliver Stone on how the US misunderstands Putin

vil says...

I dont get it, how does the US misunderstand Putin?

Probably have to watch these interviews. Putin always says well what he wants to say. He can outlast a smart US president and he can take advantage of a dumb one.

Putin is occupying large parts of a sovereign country in Europe, basically getting away with murder, but for Oliver he is a nice friendly guy, willing to be interviewed, with an interesting outlook on world peace. Wolf among sheep preaching vegetarianism.

Fox News vs Harvard On ISIS Turns Into Ignorance Fest

RFlagg says...

Got to love the country singer's straw man about Hitler and Japan and ignoring the fundamental issue of US policy in the Middle East and acting to protect oil interests over letting them self rule and work out whatever issues they have to work out. I understand the need to try and contain the fallout from the wars between the various Islamic factions (mostly Shia and Sunni) from spilling over to neighboring nations, but the US policy has been overt in serving US interests over the long term interests of the region since the 50's. The US solid backing of Israel, even in cases where it is clearly in the wrong, adds fuel to the fire.

And I know those on the right complain how Obama has backed away from Israel, though the evidence clearly differs as the US still refuses to tell Israel, to the degree we should, to treat people within its occupied zones with proper respect... and the fact so many Americans feel the need to protect Israel and favor Israel over its occupied territories no matter what, again adds fuel to the fire and shows those in Islam how under attack their faith is, which makes them stronger in their faith and more sure that they are on the right path, since the devil is working harder to put their faith down than any other faith... of course I hear this exact same argument from Christians all the time, how the devil is trying to put Christianity down proves that Christianity must be true... amazing how a little empathy would probably help world peace, but neither faith seems to have any... though I've seen enough FB memes about how Christians are so depressed because they have so much empathy and I wonder where it is, as I've yet to see any empathy from Christians as a whole. All of which digresses from the original point...

US foreign policy is directly responsible for the rise of ISIS/ISIL, whatever you want to call it... now ISIS has risen itself up to be a rather large threat via its actions, which are deliberately provoking, as it's easier to radicalize people when the world starts turning against Islam as a whole, as those on the Right are apt to do, than turn against the small segment that aren't peace loving. Of course the Right's preferred response to those provocations are to do exactly what ISIS has publicly stated they want. They want a large war against them, they'd love it if Republicans banned them from coming to the US as it would make lone wolf attacks in the US by US citizens more prevalent, which like they did with Miami (the shooter himself pledged allegiance to ISIS, but he also pledged allegiance to Hezbollah, which is fighting against ISIS)... Republican policies, especially those of Trump and Cruz are so on point with ISIS desires, one has to wonder if they themselves are tied with ISIS interests, or if they are tied to military interests that profit off continuing the war and sacrificing American lives in the name of war profiteering... but Republican Jesus said "Blessed are the warmongers and the war profiteers and cursed be the peace makers"... It was there on the Sermon on the Mount when he also said, "Blessed be the rich employer who pays his employees poorly, and cursed be those employees who are poor and needy and needing assistance. Surely I say unto you, if you give tax breaks unto the rich and cut benefits for the needy and the poor, I shall bless your Nation... oh and forget the sick and dying, they got themselves into their mess, they are responsible for getting out, only the well to do shall have healthcare." Again I digress though...

One Thing Trayvon's Girlfriend Wished She'd Said at Trial

Velocity5 says...

"Is there any last thing you'd like to say... perhaps wish for world peace, or refute the completely inaccurate stereotypes about you and your boyfriend?

[Jeantel:] "'Nigga.' People should use that word more often."

"I see. Well hopefully we can get that added to the Oxford English Dictionary, and we'll have done our part to accelerate the decline of civilization. Thank you for watching."

Young man shot after GPS error

krelokk says...

The world needs more guns. All the rampage shooters are PATRIOTS! PATRIOTS! Gun owners are just practicing their rights! More children should die if it means keeping our guns! If every person in the world had a gun, heck, four guns, world peace would have been achieved years ago. GUNS = WORLD PEACE... IDIOTS!

>> ^renatojj:

The Eurozone was established so countries would stop fighting each other? Really? That's a terribly good way of putting it.
I guess world peace is just a world central bank away.


but it must be true, an expert said it!

Waiting for Armageddon

most epicly filmed glowsticking video you will ever see

Ryjkyj says...

OK, my last comment was an attempt at humor, but as a person with almost thirty years of experience swinging around toys attached to the end of strings, I feel I have the authority to lay down the law a little bit:

First of all, "Poi" started as a traditional art form but has grown into something completely different. There are many different styles, techniques, levels of performance and materials used. Someone who is "serious" about Poi (aside from being a douche bag) might consider "fire Poi" to be the ultimate goal. Obviously, this girl would burn her arms of if she attempted these tricks with fire. But her "art" uses a child's toy, and her techniques are appropriate for that purpose. She's actually got some interesting and even fairly unique stuff going on here.

Obviously the "world peace" video intro is a little over the top but I would say her facial expression is the look of someone who's focusing, not necessarily entertaining. All in all, I'd say she's pretty talented.

I just feel that it's my duty to point out that the only real marked difference between this girl and the million other "Poi-glo-spin-light-fire-sticking" idiots is this: She's the only one on youtube who seems to have a friend with a "passion" for using a light-meter and a decent f-ing camera.

From mach-20 glider to humming bird drone

conan says...

Yes, because developing military systems that can reach any point on this planet in less than sixty minutes while carrying "more payload than just a camera" is the perfect answer to her question what should be your ultimate goal to work on if you knew you couldn't fail. What about world peace? ;-) I know, i'm some sort of hippie...

Nevertheless: One of the best TED talks i've seen so far and besides the military agenda a great motivator. Should be shown in schools to encourage young minds to keep an open mind towards engineering and science careers instead of just focusing on business and management positions.

Madonna ~ Halftime Super Bowl XLVI

a message to all neocons who booed ron paul

bmacs27 says...

Where in there was a justification for global empire? We aren't debating words "the left hates." We're debating why we were attacked by a handful of radical folks. Further we're debating whether or not our military engagement, specifically since WWII, has been productive in any measurable way. Can you provide some examples?

>> ^Winstonfield_Pennypacker:

The only reason the Proglibdyte left is such a fan of Ron Paul is because he is a non-interventionist. The liberal left's vision of the ideal world is the United States giving all its cash - no questions asked - to the United Nations. At that point the US is supposed to sit down, shut up, and do whatever the UN orders them to do. Then - in the minds of the left - we will have world peace. RP would do about 90% of that by just being an isolationist. He won't give the UN any money, but the left will settle for the US just shutting down all its involvement (especially military).
But American Exceptionalism is not jingoism or arrogance. It is a quick way to summarize the American spirit of enlightened self-interest combined with personal freedom and entrepreneurism. The liberal left hates to admit it, but the US Constitution, economy, and position in the world was no accident of chance or random luck. Our constitution was a model to the rest of the world. Our freedoms and way of life still make us the envy of just about everyone. People still want to come here in droves to escape oppression, poverty, and intolerance. America was innovating, inventing, testing, and producing when the rest of the Western world was literally standing still. This is not arrogance or snootiness. It is just fact. American Exceptionalism summarizes this - and apparently makes Proglibdyte leftists squeal like stuck pigs when they hear the words.
