UAE is not that small. And if Yemen invades them, Saudi Arabia would kill it.

Bihrin and consolidating his articles have received independence Only in 1960 ~, discovered oil and got rich before there were Only tribes, are not really afraid of Al Qaeda, they are afraid of their own this Iran, and you think they attack the state finance them? And who transmits most money this terror Qatar, they finance the organization of the Islamic state

France is not dead nor its values and ideal. We're millions marching together today along with concerned good people all over the world.

Best answer to blind intolerance and fanatism.

It's actually 700'000 to 800,000 marching. And decreasing.

Sorry to rain on your parade (pun).

When your done hating democracy, freedom, and its other included values. Please leave Kansas and move to Aleppo or Pyongyang.

Ok, that was harsh and fact on my part, but harsh and unrelated and opinion on yours. You're the one who loves absolute monarchies that love their people and give oil.

700-800 K was yesterday, today's much much more.
Just to illustrate, the police announced giving up trying to count the marchers in Paris.

Probably the most massive demonstration since the Liberation.

I'm no Parisian, mind you, but even here in the south it was impressive.

And, oh, by the way, no rain on this parade : the sun shined ;-)

But you know that demonstrating not do anything, then you walk to freedom and democracy, why do you think he asked Qaeda will moderate because of the demonstration?

Civil wars and revolts count as a disturbance in peace.

I agree with Ceaser

Lucid, it depends on how big the revolt is. If the revolt is big enough and long enough that it is affecting more than half of the country directly, then it's a civil war and not a revolt, and anything less than a civil war is not a major disturbance of peace.

Xyktbpy is using a proxy, Julius, and you know democracies suffer from the tragedy of a commons. I'm all for a sophist king and a parliament

France looks pretty dead. I mean, look at the Dreyfus affair, and compare.

EDIT: And since we're speaking about different types of governments (I'm not sure how that happened), you're better off with a libertarian technocracy with neoliberal values in mind.

... And lots of guns.

There's more on his main page. He's the slightest bit insane, but he as at least a brain.[That rhymes]

Qwed: Libertarianism DOES work, especially if every country had open borders.

And a very good military.

EDIT: Wahoo! Your guns failed you, because of these quotes: "want a leaner, more efficient government, but don't dream of getting rid of it" and "accept that the FDIC is a pretty good idea".

That's me with my technocratic vision. :p

A small, efficient government under the administration of professionals that only plays a role in law, order, banking and military is the best one (most of the time. Corruption and fascism is the only problem I can think of.).

Unless you're in the bottom 5-10 %.

FDIC-Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
REQUIRES LOTS OF MONEY. NECESSITATES BIG GOV'T

Honestly, I don't see the point in insurance, it suffers from the middleman syndrome

Responding to the OP: The idea the west fights its wars against islam using pens is ridiculous. America didnt drop pens all over: gaza, iraq, afghanistan, yemen, pakistan. They didnt deploy pens to jerusalem. Thats what makes some muslims hate, this time they happened to take it out on someone who didnt deserve it. You could say "why didnt the gunmen attack some military target", most of them do, these guys didnt because i presume they didnt see a distinction between charlie bullying them and the american armed forces bullying them. Its easy for us to see charlie as not the establishment but from an outsiders point of view charlie arent standing up for muslims and theyre doing things specifically to disrespect muslims so its somewhat understandable that theyre seen as the enemy.

But what isnt understandable is that these people live in the dark ages, they thrive off of killing others for "justice" All because their interpretation of the Quran tells them that they should.
