Wow, just lost all my respect for Hawkings: http://www.foxnews.c...israel-boycott/

What a fuckhead.

CONGRATULATIONS RONAN.

Quote

"Israel is a democracy in which everyone can voice their opinions, whatever they may be,” Maimon told the Jerusalem Post. “Boycotting is not compatible with open democratic dialogue."

Dumbest shit I've ever read.
Implying boycott isn't a function of 'open democratic dialogue.'
Implying.
Maimon is a faggot.

Maimon's face when the goyim are on to him:


Fuck the entire Middle East. What a shit hole.

[Radar]

Darn it, and here this whole time I thought boycotts and democracy were mutually inclusive. I suppose Maimon knows better.

Not exactly sure how Hawking has done anything wrong here.

Okay, now I gotta hear this explaination.

There is no right or wrong side to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Anyone who thinks there is has no clue whatsoever. The whole thing is a clusterfuck.

Best thing to do is just not get involved in the first place. And that's the problem I have with Stephen Hawking - he had to go political.

[Fox]

"Political Science"? Is that like creationism?

Yeah. With a $1500 3D printer and the materials, you can print your own firearms. Pretty fascinating stuff, but as far as I know, they haven't designed any guns that can shoot more than a few shots before breaking. Although, if they used the right material, it would probably work better. The point, however, may be to make a gun that is not going to set off a metal detector...

[Jimmy]

Doesn't matter, ammunition would still set one off.

He boycotted pure(I presume) scientific/academic event because of the politics. Many think science should be above those things thus negative reaction towards Hawking's decision.

That's some scary stuff. 3D printers would be useful for practical purposes that actually benefit society, but give one to a criminal or put it into the wrong hands, and you've got a mess.

Especially since Hawkings' criticism doesn't concern the democratic process in Israel, but rather its (government's) treatment of the Palestinian population.

That said, your "posting an anti-semitic image and calling someone a faggot makes makes for internet cool" attitude doesn't quite get my hands together.
Too much of that going around on this forum unfortunately, especially in General Discussion.

Oh don't provoke him. Now he'll put 5 in one post at a time.

Boycotting a free and democratic nation because it seeks to defend itself from its vicious neighbors is fucking stupid and hypocritical. It's the kind of collective punishment the left accuses Israel of.

But so was Einstein a socialist. Just goes to show how people can be incredibly stupid outside of their field.

[Jimmy]

I wouldn't go as far to say I'm an anti-Semite but I'm fucking tired of Israeli bullshit. Jews just happen to have a shitty religion, shitty oppressive state, and shitty attitudes under their belt for the most part. Thankfully Joe Judaism down the street is a cool guy. And inb4 JIDF.

Nice saying. I wouldn't go as far as to call them stupid, but it seems those who work on theoretical physics tend to idealize things, meaning they may not be brillant in other areas.

Don't worry, everyone who disagrees with Mikko is stupid and should be eradicated.

Judaism isn't a shitty religion. It's mid-tier. Jews keep to themselves.

I've been in Jewish neighborhoods in NYC many times. Peaceful, without people getting in my face. No one gets in my face trying to give me pamphlets, there are no billboards about deities, I can just be myself. I'd take that over Christfags or Durka Durkas any day. inb4 Shomrim

Also B&H is one of the coolest stores on the panet, and it's infested with Jews. I'd say 90% of the staff members are Jewish.

Oppressing Palestine != defending yourself. Also overreacting to Hamas rockets and people living in tents throwing rocks is far from acceptable.

Because as long as they have your money, they don't care. At least, that's what the Great Hitler said.

That doesn't change the fact that Israel does whatever it wants. As long as they have the U.S. backing up everything they do, it will stay that way. They are all big bullies to each other. Israel should have never been formed, but now it's too late. You think they would have learned about possibly starting another world war rather quick after WWII started because of the Treaty of Versailles.

There would be no checkpoints all over the West Bank if the so-called Palestinians behaved like civilized people. And I'd hardly call Israeli responses overreactions when they're reactions to thousands of rockets being fired into Israel.

Forming Israel was definitely the right thing to do considering the fact that Jews were severely persecuted in Europe even after the war. Israel is a fantastic, booming hi-tech country that has turned a patch of desert into a stable, prosperous democracy.

[Jimmy]

Sounds like the Jews just can't take a hint. If you get persecuted everywhere you go, there's probably good reason.

The solution to the middle east is telling everyone they have a week to leave and then we're nuking all of it.

[Kathy]

Oh...

Yeah the same reason people support high taxes: envy. The stereotype of Jews as being clever and good at banking is simply another way of saying you're pissed off at someone for being smarter and richer than you.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, I'm not envious of people who have been historically persecuted everywhere they go all throughout history and even by their own god.
