Please, please... why don't you stop writing really stupid things here? Nobody wants to condemn the Jews nor the Arabs, and it is quite annoying that you keep saying the same things over and over again.

If anything, what the world can see right now is that the Jews are trying to do to the Arabs what they had been done by Hitler more or less. The Jews started all this hatred with the Arabs, because they wanted more and more space, more and more land, trying to subtract it to the Arabs. I think that they are both wrong, because things should be worked out through words, and not through war. Like I said in one of my previous posts somewhere, war is only the extension of politics... only it is used when politics fails, or when it is claimed to be failing.

Please stop this "the Jews are good, the Arabs are bad" kinda thing, because it only shows your ignorance to the world and how much you still have to learn.
Now, for all of the Naoiies, rate me down, do what you feel like doing. I only cannot stand to read stupid posts like this one anymore.

Ok, let's all take a step back. Quite frankly andromacha I'm very surprised at this post from you. I've never noted you to be anything fair and reasonable. either this post is a fluke, or i've certainly been reading your posts with the wrong tone. If your reply were in response to something i had written i would be deeply offended. Someone mourns the death of many, and you abuse them and call them 'ignorant', 'stupid' and 'annoying'. now, i do have issues with all of their posts in the other thread they initiated, however, you may fight that battle over there if you wish. to do so in this context is just apaling.

And on a side note, NAO don't we think that perhaps abusing all newbies because they aren't immediately at a standard we would appreciate might be lightly like saying, oh, digging our grave. NAOs getting quieter and quieter, we need new blood, and the only way to do this is to nurture the newbs.

let's all drop the negativity, that's what i personally find to be ignorant, stupid and annoying.

come guys, pull yourselves together, or in the words of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "understand we'll go hand in hand but we'll walk alone in fear".

*coughs* sorry, that moment just played on my teleision and it's actually quite an appropriate comment, even if i do wish it came from a slightly more respectable source.

Yours with peaceful thoughts,
-Mel

I think andromacha might have been offended by this, as the idea that it may be a dig at some NAOee's (cough) Israel-critical statements in this thread does not appear too far-fetched. (God, what a sentence.)
To be frank, I too am a bit sick of that constant "we Jews are poor victims and you all must fall over each other to express your sympathy and support" whining. What the Nazis did was detestable, but IMNSHO the fact that something bad happened to your grandfather sixty years ago is not a reason to demand being treated as a victim yourself.
I chose not to reply tho, for (now) obvious reasons.


On a side note, has anybody noticed that today is also Chernobyl's 20th anniversary?

Consider yourself hugged.

Yes, I did. Heard and saw it in the media yesterday and today...

Mel I was not talking about anything you had said at all. Null got the right answer actually. I am only very pissed at this person's behavior on netalive. I am talking about lightyears. Lately all the posts I have been reading written by this person were all like "Jews are good, Arabs are bad". But come on, someone needs to wake up here. Things are not the way someone depicts them. It is not all white or black.

And to be honest, Mel, I am not offended at all. I am only DISGUSTED, because Netalive should be a place to conduct smart discussions in peace, but all this person is doing is writing the same thing over and over again in different posts and different ways. The message is however the same though: blaming the Arabs for everything that is happening in the world nowadays. And yes, Mel, this is IGNORANT, SHALLOW AND STUPID.

Again, it was not directed towards you, but only to lightyears, a person who should grow up a bit before spurting out sentences and judgments like this. So, if you felt offended by my post, or if you thought I was attacking you, well you couldn't be more wrong :) I am against violence of any sort, and what upsets me is hearing this person saying how the Arabs did this and that to Jews, but never reporting what the Jews do and will keep doing in exchange. If anything, they are balancing themselves out. And I am once again saying that I am deeply fed up with this s***t of hearing "the Jews are good and innocent, and the Arabs are only moth***ers who kill the poor innocent Jews". This is not true, it has never been and never will be.

Well let her say what she wants. If she wants to believe Jews are 100% innocent, that is her opinion. There have been many instances in netalive in which people have expressed wrong opinions, but have been respected for having said it.

And her repetition, so long as it isn't intended to "flood" netalive with topics, is perfectly fine. She just may not receive more than mediocre for the repetition and bad grammar.

But I respect her willingness to try, and for that I am not going to rate any of her posts below mediocre for that reason alone.

It's part of the philosophy of netalive to be able to express your opinion here isn't it? Would I be condemned for giving my perhaps apparently wrong viewpoints more than once? I'd like to think I wouldn't.

We reserve the right to call a post spam only if it is not meant in the sincerest attempts to say one's opinion genuinely. And I believe lightyear's post qualifies as a non-spam post. However, in order for her to receive ratings above mediocre, she will have to learn to respect the views of others and perhaps improve her grammar more.

If the world should blow itself up,the last audible voice would be an expert saying it can't be done

Has it really been 20 years since Chernobyl? It doesn't seem that long ago.

I suppose i should rebutt everyone's various responses here, but i'm very reluctant to do so. My whole point was let's try to keep the peace. Let's have a successful discussion that doesnt result in personal attacks for a change. *Shrugs* it seems that this is just not possible. Everyone's so passionate and determined that they are right, and open-minded, and that differing opinion is mere ignorance. The only thing worse than scorning someone for their opinion is pitying them for it. All i wanted was for people to take a step back and try to construct their arguments in a positive, supportive manner. There was a time, when such posts were the common standard here...
