Why doesn't Israel just use one of its 150+ Weapons of Mass Destruction and just drop it on Gaza already?
Palestinians in Gaza are already dead. They died well before the siege, the brutal, crippling blockade, well before the Goldstone report, etc. etc.
Since 2001, upwards of 1600 Palestinian Children (Christians and Muslims, cause apparently the media always forgets about the millions of Palestinian Christians, like me who feel absolutely disenfranchised and sepulchral too) have died (15 times the number of Israeli children that have died in the same time period), 6400 Palestinians in total have died (6.5 times the number of Israeli’s in the same time period), and 25,000 Palestinian homes have been demolished (compared to, obviously, 0 demolitions for Israeli’s).
The unemployment rate in Gaza is 47%.
So why the hell don’t Israeli’s just kill us all already? Why don’t they just take a bomb and drop it on all of us Palestinian Christians and Muslims and just put us out of our misery? I’d rather die summarily then continue suffering like a dog for another 40+ years of Occupation and Ruthlessness.
I’m not like those Palestinians who feel that since we are already dead, we should fight cause we have nothing to lose. I don’t agree with them. If I’m gonna live a life of Absolute Misery and Dejection then i would rather have Israel just drop a bomb on me.
Why don’t they just kill us all already with one of their 150 Nuclear War Heads (150 more than any other country in the entire Middle East has, lol, and they say Israel is "existentially threatened" LOL, i guess us Palestinians might wipe them off the face of the Earth with our home made rockets or our slingshot stone shooters ROFL) ?
tardis: if i blocked you it was by accident. i did post this question twice in two different sections to get more answers more quickly. so sue me.
The last person to ask this same copypasta question, and pretended to be Palestinian blocked me when I called him out on it.

The same reason why the South Africans didn’t use their nukes back in the day when they put black people in giant camps away from the white people.
They’d lose any support they have from the US, then they’d be completely screwed.

They wouldn’t do that in case anyone heard the boom and it spoiled their reputation as peacemakers.
I read a good one yesterday although it may be old news to you. The Gazans where gifted a funfair and it became a great attraction for children… until snipers started taking pot shots at the rides. Too terrified to go there the Gazans have had to let it rot. Another little light snuffed out by Israel.

Im sorry you feel so helpless. please dont give up the fight. There are tens of millions of people around the world who are with you and one day the disgusting rascist state of israel will fall and once again you will have your homeland back.

Ramadan: Who was truthful Bibi Fatima (as) or AbuBaker?
Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 53, Number 325:
Narrated ‘Aisha: (mother of the believers) After the death of Allah ’s Apostle Fatima the daughter of Allah’s Apostle asked Abu Bakr As-Siddiq to give her, her share of inheritance from what Allah’s Apostle had left of the Fai (i.e. booty gained without fighting) which Allah had given him. Abu Bakr said to her, "Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Our property will not be inherited, whatever we (i.e. prophets) leave is Sadaqa (to be used for charity)." Fatima, the daughter of Allah’s Apostle got angry and stopped speaking to Abu Bakr, and continued assuming that attitude till she died. Fatima remained alive for six months after the death of Allah’s Apostle.
ONLY A TRUTHFUL CAN INVOKE CURSE OF ALLAH ON LIARS
QURAN 3:61] If any one disputes in this matter with thee, now after (full) knowledge Hath come to thee, say: "Come! let us gather together,- our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves: Then let us earnestly pray, and invoke the curse of Allah on those who lie!"
This verse refers to the well-known event of mubahilah mentioned in every book of history, traditions and tafsir written by Muslim scholars.
The Holy Prophet was sending invitations to all to accept the true religion of Allah. Tribe after tribe, region after region, were coming into the fold of Islam. One such invitation was sent to the Christians of Najran, a town in Yemen, in the 9th year of Hijra. A deputation of 60 scholars came to discuss the matter with the Holy Prophet. Abdul Masih, the chief monk, asked him as to who was the father of Isa, thinking that the Holy Prophet would accept (God as the father of Isa. Verse 59 of this surah was revealed and presented to the Christians as a reply but they did not listen to reason. Then this verse was revealed to call them to a spiritual contest by invoking the curse of Allah on the liars mubahilah. The Christians agreed to this contest.
Early next morning, the 24th of the month of Dhilhijjah, the Holy Prophet sent Salman to the selected site, outside the city area, to set up a shelter for those whom he would take with him, as his sons, women and selves.
A large number of companions assembled in the masjid, making themselves available for the selection. On the opposite side of the field, selected for the contest, the Christians, with their selected men, women and children appeared on the scene.
At the appointed hour, a huge crowd, standing in wait, saw the Holy Prophet coming in, Imam Husayn in his arms, Imam Hasan holding his index finger, walking beside him, Bibi Fatimah Zahra, close to his heels and Imam Ali just behind her-as his sons, women, and selves. It should be noted that although there was provision for "women" and "selves" the Holy Prophet selected one "woman" and one "self"-Fatimah and Ali, because there was no woman and no man among his followers at that time who could be brought into the contest of invoking the curse of Allah on the liars. They alone were the truthful ones. (see commentary of al Tawbah: 119).
The Holy Prophet raised his hands to the heaven and said:
"O my Lord! These are my Ahle-Bait"
Why would i care who is more truthful or knowledgeable ?
Both Fatima and Imam Abu Bakr are for muslims
Fatima isnt for zoinists(shia)

What is your objective from posting such questions ?
Do you think we can change the past ?
Don’t you think it is better to discuss ways of uniting the Muslims instead of dividing them ?
alsharif | Feb 06, 2010
sure abo baker "r.a"
she asked Abu Bakr As-Siddiq to give her, her share of<<<< inheritance>>>
he replied
<<"Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Our property will not be inherited, whatever we (i.e. prophets) leave is Sadaqa>>
This is confirmed in Shia Hadith as well. Let us examine Shia Hadith in Al-Kafi

What happens from undergrad to post grad in American Universities?
In Britain we just study one subject for 3-4 years. In America it seems more complicated to me.
Let’s say I get into MIT, just as an example. What are these courses. What are units e.g 4-4-4
Is this only for undergrad. Link is here http://student.mit.edu/catalog/m6a.html# 6.002
1234567890
According to their website, "4-4-4" shows how many credits the course is worth. The first digit is the number of credit hours for lecture/recitation, the second digit is the number of credit hours for lab work, and the third digit is the number of credit hours for preparation. This is the first time I’ve seen it noted as such. Credit hours are fairly common at American universities in both undergraduate and postgraduate curricula as a way of tracking how far along you are in the curriculum, but at the three colleges/universities I’ve been to, each just simply stated a class was worth 3 or 4 credits.
carolinaguy611 | Jan 26, 2010
Undergrad degrees in America are 4 year degrees, and even when you have a "major" there is a strong liberal arts aspect to it. It is designed to create thinkers, not as a professional degree. Graduate degrees and certificates are considered professional degrees.
So for instance, in America if you want to be a lawyer, you earn your 4 year B.S, in any subject, then continue to grad school to earn your J.D, Juris Doctor.
Daniel John | Jan 26, 2010
Unlike the British system American education system is composed of a major, supportive courses, electives, and a minor in some cases. From elementary school through their undergraduate education American students study several subjects that include: social sciences, math, natural science, government, history, art, and humanities. In the American system you select your major, area of concentration, and you have allowed to select your own classes. Some classes require that you meet prerequisites and for example Physics I may require that you have had one semester of calculus or exposure to calculus before taking the class. Reason for the prerequisite is because the course assume that you have knowledge of the subject and if you do not you may find that you struggle with it. Additionally courses are listed as credit hours and this is approximately how many hours per week you will be in lecture excluding any labs. So if you have 17 credit hours you can expect that you will be in lecture 17 hours each week plus lab time and preparation time. Looking at the web page there is link that explains it and units. The link below explains it.
Continuing, if you have a concentrated area of study for your A-levels such as physics, biology, chemistry, math, and human biology you may find that some courses such as English and social sciences you may struggle with due to the fact you were not required to take them. Also you will need to be sure that you have funding for school in the US due to the fact a school like MIT is quite expense. A very rough estimate would ?40,000 / year to cover tuition, fees, books, materials, living expenses, and cost of health insurance. Finally a school like MIT is quite competitive and they only accept 10% of who apply and this means you need to be near the top of your class to be considered for admission.

Lookout, The (2007)
IMDB rating: 7.40
Plot: An admired high school hockey player (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) with a bright future foolishly takes a drive in the night with his girl friend and two other friends with his headlights off with devastating results. The former athlete is left with a brain injury that prevents him from remembering many things for extended periods of time. To compensate, he keeps notes in a small notebook to aid him in remembering what he is to do. He also lives with a blind friend (Jeff Daniels) who aids him. Obviously, with the mental incapacitation, he is unable to have meaningful work. Thus he works as a night cleaning man in a bank. It is there he comes under the scrutiny of a gang planning to rob the bank. The leader (Matthew Goode) befriends him and gets him involved with a young woman (Isla Fisher) who further reels him in. After they get close and after reeling him in with his own failures, the bank plan unfolds. Confused but wanting to escape his current existence, he initially goes along with the scheme. After realizing he is being used, he attempts to stop the robbery, which of course immediately goes awry. Bruce McGill and Alberta Watson also co-star as the young man’s parents, who still search for the person that was there before the tragic crash.

Best Weapon in Fallout 3 + All DLCs?
Yes hello,
I recently completed The Pitt DLC, and after getting the 100 steel ingots (that was a pain!). I got the Tribal Power armor, and Metal Blaster. Cool! Right? Nope!
You see, after that I went to Point Lookout and most Tribe people were too strong for my blaster (even though I kept it at 100% condition).
SO NOW, I’m on an unmarked quest to find the best weapon (by the way guys, please don’t go saying get the MiRV, since the Nukes are sparse enough already. I want a reliable weapon with which to go and hunt some mutant overlords). I would prefer a Small or Energy weapon since thats what I specialized in.

Oh and the site tried to put this in the Police & Government >Military section. LoL! Although I guess it makes sense… kinda…

The A3-21 Plasma Gun from Harkness in Rivet City is pretty powerful. It can be obtained in "the Replicated Man" which you reveal the truth to Harkness, but decide to keep it a secret. It also better than the Alien blaster as the alien ammo is very limited.

The Energy/plasma rifle. High damage, tons of VATS actions and the insane pleasure of watching your enemies turn into piles of glowing green goo. Nuff said.

The Firelance, you get it on a random event. This is how I got it easily.
Travel to Casey Smith’s garage. Enter the garage. Exit the garage. You will now be facing east. Turn around and facing almost directly West and just ever so slightly North. Now travel in this direction for approximately 30-40 seconds and you will arrive at the Rockopolis entrance and a "random encounter will be in front of the entrance. If you did not get the UFO exploding over your head encounter simply reload your auto save after leaving the garage and travel there again. Eventually the encounter will occur.
Here are some locations if you need more ammo for this gun.

The Alien Blaster or the Firelance (the unique alien blaster that shoots fire) are probably the two strongest ones you can do - ammo is sparce though.
You could also try to do the Alien spaceship - the atomizer is a great 1hd blaster that has a very low AP cost to shoot - my twinked character could get 15 head shots off easily with all the AP gear I wore.
