Yes, you read right.
According to HE WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED's principle, war and oppression can be handled by simply realizing that no one is RIGHT in something. Everyone is wrong. The Allies should have simply told the Nazis to throw their guns in the sea (I guess maybe they'd throw their gas chambers in the sea too?) and just sat together, hav picnics and talk about that one episode of Seinfeld where Jerry and the gang wanted to watch that movie, but just couldn't find eachother in the theater.
Cause in an oppression, it makes no sense to just SIDE with someone. Everyone has to make a concession and just come to peace.
I'm not going to offer a practical solution either. I'm just going to say that war is unnecessary. If it meant decades of more suffering for the Jews, so be it. but fighting is NOT the answer. Maybe the Jews could've performed better nonviolent protests instead of complaining of being killed?
What do you all think? In cases of oppression and occupation, can we really just come together and sing Kumbaya?

the civil war was unnecessary too. enslavement is preferable to war! if we all just become the peaceful change we want, evil people will see how holy and right we are, and become that way too! Ghandi taught me that, and he's infallible!
for example, look how all the peaceful protests stopped the Iraq War, look how tianenmen square stopped communist oppression in China! look how free Burma is today because of an absolute refusal to take up arms!
Peace must be maintained at all costs, even if that cost is enslavement! Freedom isn't as important as peace! Peace! PEACE!!!!!!!0 -
Pretty over the top - huh? Why don't you take my point out of context.. oh wait, you just did.
Apples and Oranges - not the same thing in any respect and to try and make some half-assed point by taking my words in regards to the Israel/Palestine conflict and apply it to WW2, is merely silly.CONservative governMENt
Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis0 -
Keep your discussions in the thread, starting another thread about a poster is childish, petty, and just a dumbass thing to do.

yeah? hang around here a little while and see how many people dont think its silly. they pretty much apply that to every war, including WWII. you're right though, it is apples to oranges.0 -

In cases of oppression, yes, world reaction can play a definitive role in making peaceful changes. Occupation means force has already be used. Diplomacy should be the first step, however, sometimes force requires force.SIN EATERS--We take the moral excrement we find in this equation and we bury it down deep inside of us so that the rest of our case can stay pure. That is the job. We are morally indefensible and absolutely necessary.0 -

Slow down. I've heard crazy things in my day, but check your facts. Seinfeld wasn't on television during the 1940's. They couldn't have sat at a picnic and talked about Seinfeld. The Allies and the Nazi's talking about Seinfeld....too funny. Do you live in a time warp? Maybe they could have talked about calling people out on a message board and making it personal, but again, computers did not exists back then.0 -

Well, at least quote the other poster's comment instead of just trashing the poster. You obviously just wanted to be sarcastic, so you should have kept it to the other thread. If you wanted a serious discussion, then you should have started with a serious first post, and then led into your sarcasm later on in the thread.0 -

Other than that, I'd still like to hear an actual solution to the conflict from him or someone who agrees with him... I mean, who knows, it might actually be a very good solution...0 -

No, it was an attempt to call out Five...just call it like it is. PM him if you want to , but this is juvenile.hippiemom = goodness0 -

I was just mocking the Seinfeld joke, that's all.0 -
Becasue one issue, conflict or problem requires one method of logic or rational to fix it, doesn't mean every issue, conflict or problem should be the same. Each one is different and complex in its own ways. To try and generalize such things is silly.CONservative governMENt

As for actual solutions, I haven't heard any yet. If the poster wants to defend his position, I'd be happy to edit my first post and write his solution in it.0 -

Are you referring to WW2 or Israle and Palestine? If it's the second, we already have a thread discussing this. As for WW2, all the same issues which caused WW1 basically caused the 2nd._outlaw wrote:Alright, so what do you suggest is the best solution to the conflict?CONservative governMENt
