The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Ask a Mexican; the USA is also an expansionist nation."

To our shame. It certainly doesn't make it right.
But we have not encroached on Mexican territory for quite a long time.


"But they don't. They have had groups like Hamas and Hezballah backed by nations like Iran regularly attacking Israel ever since Israel was established."
What do you think the Palestinians should do to reclaim the occupied territory? Or to resist the 'settler' movement/invasion?
They are literally prisoners in their own territory without control of their own territorial waters or airspace.
Should they just accept it and move away? Is that what you would do?


"Religions beating one another's heads to pulp over the right of the Jews to have a nation and defend their very existence."
Surely the Palestinians have a right to existence and territory too?
I'm not convinced this is a religious fight anyway.

The global population issue is a separate one whose only solution involves a change to human instincts.
