I recalled this from reading biographies as a boy. Don't know why I liked them, but I did.

Barbary Coast Wars. He was instrumental.

Looks like I was wrong about them inventing the telescope as well. Not sure what science they provided.

Phelps. I heard, but cannot verify, the Islamic fencer pointed the foil at a poster of Trump. If true, I am sure the media suppressed it.

Who did carry the flag?

You are equating muslim hatred of non-muslims to black hatred of at least whites? If so, you are right. It is a powerful method of bringing a group to focus.

What is the end game?

i do not recall offhand...

Islam reached its territorial peak fairly early, absorbing much of the Byzantine and all of the Sassanid (Persian) empire by 750 AD, with conquest of Europe prevented by Charles (The Hammer) Martel at the battle of Tours (in France) in 732. The Ottomans did not become the dominant force of Islam until the 1300s.

Nice way of putting it. I'm wondering if we have any choice about what to do any more.

Great falafel!

I recall Jefferson and Franklin has some strong words about them. I had forgotten this note. Didn't Stephen Decatur participate in this action?

I thought "zero" was invented by the Spanish, but heard that factoid from Edward James Olmos from Stand and Deliver. Probably not the best source ;)

I assume you all are aware of the Islamic female fencer from the US that the left said should carry the flag at the opening ceremony to show diversity and the fact that a record medal winner and person elected by the entire USA team (Phelps) was not important. Good grief.

Someone has been taught to hate someone.
Such hatred is regularly taught by the clerics of King Barry's "religion of peace."

The failing of rational actors in an individualist society is to not recognize when someone is a tribalist fanatic, invulnerable to reason. When a citizen of such a culture is reared to believe that all who are not of the tribe (in this case the extended Muslim Ummah as a tribe) are the enemy, to be destroyed unless they submit and join the tribe, there is no common ground. Sportsmanship is an individualist concept, recognizing the worth of another individual, which is of no consequence to a tribalist, who regards the victory of a member of an enemy tribe as a terrible evil event.

It's not "their way or the highway" It's their way or the graveyard, which are synonymous.

Agreed.

As long as this sticks to measurable physical parameters. I am good. I am well aware electric fields from brain activity are measurable outside the head. These electric fields change with brain activity, and as changing fields could be described as "waves", and certainly some elements of thought are discernible from measuring this field. Experiments showing the ability to control things from these measurements have been demonstrated. However, I would not use this fact to assert the mind exists outside the head, because the electric fields outside the head can be severely disrupted without significantly affecting thought.

I am very aware of quantum communication. My company does work in this area. Using the Bell's Theorem approach:

I am unaware of any evidence that this physical effect/vehicle is used in the brain. Certainly Orson Scott Card thought about that, but he only assigned the capability to alien species.

what do you expect from muslims!

muslims do not understand civilized behavior...back in Thomas Jefferson's time (as the 3rd president of u.s.), they were seizing our private shipping in the Mediterranean...Jefferson created the U.S. Marines (...to the shores of Tripoli...), with orders to kill every man, woman, and child in Tripoli...after the initial battles, the muslim pirates begged for peace...after that every merchant from every nation flew the u.s. flag in the Mediterranean...time to remind them of civilized behavior (primarily ISIS,and other radicals)...

Yes, that was Persia before Islam. Same thing as the concept of zero. Once Islam took over the region, science took a backseat. Why? Because science requires one to test and sometimes rebuke conventional wisdom. Look at what happened to Galileo when he challenged the Roman Catholic Church's notion of the Earth-centered solar system.

That's intentional. If one looks at the racist history of the Democratic Party, they want nothing more than the enslavement of blacks and other minorities. They've moved the blacks to the plantation ghettos and they've put the Mexicans on the farms. They want these race riots because they can use them as justification to invoke martial law and enslave everyone else in the process.

You are probably right. Certainly seems worse now than any time before in my lifetime (that I recall).

Caution and discretion must be used on this fringe because the new age creatures are making these things mean what they want it to mean...just like the progressive left.
But to the point, we know there are "brain waves", they can be measured. We also know everything vibrates at a frequency, we also can measure anything alive or even machinery when operating (electric) that a field exists around it. The body and brain are no different. Again, one must be careful...eastern mysticism takes this over the edge.
We can surmise that even particles carry information (at least rudimentary info, as in spin, charge, etc)...so do you think the brain, your thought, your intentions or emotions might be any different? We can and will take this, very carefully forward... measure and weight every step.

Exactly, Thoritsu but I would say he has set back race relations 50 years.
