When was Palestine a country?

No one wants else wants to try to answer this? Is it because you all agree Palestine never was a country?


Yes it is obvious than Palestine was a country, read Wikipedia page (if you want). 

When was Palestine a country?

No one wants else wants to try to answer this? Is it because you all agree Palestine never was a country?

Palestine was always a country. Ever heard about Mandatory Palestine?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandatory_Palestine

After the Ottomans were driven out of the Levant, Palestine was administrated as a British mandate. Also, notice that the name is "Palestine" and not Israel.

Now I really should want to know what J. J. Phillips will say regard this "incredible" news for him, do you know that israel is still invading the Palestine lands or not? I don't like the israeli politic about this fact.

I am asking this because I want to know more, and it is better to know from a muslim instead search on google. Let me know thanks. If you will say it is not a "law" in the Islam then the OP is wrong.

Yes I am a Muslim yes I am from the deepest of the deepest place in the Muslim world and yes toilet paper is very foreign to us, Now for the other readers instead of the "EwwwEwww". Listen to this story:

One time I was in Thailand going out with a group of friends and one of them was from the Netherlands. We literally talked for ten minutes about shitting. He was telling me how an amazing experience it was for him to use the floor seating toilet. Thai people know  how it aligns the lower colon. Also he was amazed by the idea of the bidet. But also how toilet paper was still important to wipe whatever was stuck in between the cheeks and well some of us are hairy down there and needs the friction of the paper. We settled the conversation that the combination of Toilet paper, Bidet and floor seating is the cleanest best experience that will leave you feeling "clean" and refreshed.

Moral of the story? Most of us don't even know how to shit properly. We will learn when we have the balls to actually discuss shitting.

People shit differently in the this world. The way we sit, How to clean and what do we use to clean our behind. It is mazing how this did not progress and I think it is because we all kinda "ashamed" of something so natural and so basic as the "call of nature".

Now back to you my friend, redsn0w:
All this came from one thing that the prophet Mohammad said. And he said it only once. I think it is pretty obvious and whoever would think it is a restriction needs to calm down and actually listen. What he said is the following:

"When you have to go to the empty land, Use water to clean yourself. If you cannot find any, Find any leafs, if you cannot find any, Use stones to wipe". Empty land is an old polite arab way of saying -Going to answer the nature's call-

To me that means dude, clean your ass after you shit. Find the best way that would be cleaner but if you can't seek another and another, just CLEAN after you are done.

For some, and I still can't see why, they think that it means NO, use only water.. but f you can't then siiigh.... hmmm...shiiiit.... yes yes allright I guess you can use toilet paper..... I don't like it though.... but yeah you can......

If someone here think it meant that, then you sir are an EPIC idiot. Good day

(I don't think red sn0w thinks that, just saying because idiots around here would think I meant that)

Thanks for the reply (and also for the story) now I understood it is only a result (if there isn't present water, etc). Innit, I knew it was only another useless article and not 100% real., have a nice day.

cop's saying the guy took his taser and shot him with it, evidence still looks pretty daming either way


I'm sure the cop would say anything to cover his ass, shooting that guy running away in the back is one of the most cowardly things I've ever seen. There's no way the cop could have felt threatened it that situation, at very most he could have fired just a warning shot.

More importantly it is illegal to shoot some one in the back as they are running away in most states (if not all) because it demonstrates clearly they were not in an active attempt of attacking you (the only legal reason to shoot some one unless in defense of another life).

cop's saying the guy took his taser and shot him with it, evidence still looks pretty daming either way

Even if that is the case, the cop shouldn't have shot the victim. Tasers are rarely fatal. The policemen should have chased the victim and caught him instead of just shooting him. I believe they receive training for these sort of incidents before they join the police force.

One thing I don't understand is, why shoot the guy 8 god damn times. Even if he did have a taser, which he did not. I watched the video and Jamba is right the cop plants the taser on him. But seriously the guy is running away, if you did have to shoot why not leg him or shoot him once? Why unload a clip into the guy? Even if he had a taser the guy is like 25+feet and running wouldnt a single shot do the job?

I used to know a former cop. You know what he told me? If you have to use your gun in self defense, make sure you empty the clip into them and they are dead. People who survive are witnesses, and witnesses send you to jail or sue you. Dead people don't. This is why when they kill people, they turn them into Swiss cheese, not just disable them.

Are you really serious? Is this their work system? So when they shoot they must always kill a person instead to 'stop' him (for example with a shoot to the leg). Another country that I should not visit :/.

The most important is quality of the posts. Their number is not so important

I think the same, maybe in the next few months will start some signature campaigns will pay for your posts quality instead of your "number of posts". What do you think? Will it be possible or not (I know it is a lot of work, but maybe ...)?
3346  Other / Politics & Society / Re: NEW JERSEY WANTS TO TAX BITCOIN TRANSACTIONS on: April 09, 2015, 09:52:57 PM
So unless you are a business that openly accepts Bitcoin, How exactly do they plan to enforce this? Would the businesses just using it as a gateway (Through BitPay, Just existing 100% to cash) are supposed to pay taxes twice? for the cash income and Bitcoin?

No I don't think they will tax twice, because the merchant will receive FIAT money (dollars) through a bank transfer and not bitcoin so they cannot tax him because he "never" touched bitcoin. Maybe I am wrong, but I think this is a valid supposition.

My deposit has 3 confirmations but is still "pending". I'm guessing it needs 6.

Hi,

when you send bitcoin you should wait the "standard" irreversible 6 confirm, and after your coin will appear in your balance. Let me know if you will find other problems Wink (or simply want an help).

What is this nonesense? I have been using toilet paper since I was a kid. It is not a "restriction". It is just hygiene tips. And since when toilet paper was a better choice than a bidet (That if some idiots here still think Muslims think they should use one and prohibited from the other or a combination of both.)

Are you a muslim? So Was I correct in my thought?

.....
It is a "country religion" decision, I think it doesn't exist any law in Islam that forbid you to use toilet paper (but maybe I am wrong). This is the first time that I have read a news of this type.

Can you post a screenshot of the red warning? I think you were permabanned, but I am not sure at 100%. As shorena said, you were banned mosst probable for the content of your posts and you should improve your quality. Now I suggest you to don't evade the ban and not post outside the meta section.




Oh, This is the first time I know how to post a picture here. Thanks for all you here !

Really strange, there isn't an email either a "period" so I can't say if it is a perma or limited ban. You should wait an admin, because we can't help you much here.

In these days a lot of Islam's related thread, and I want only to say a couple of things (related with the Quran):

- How many version of that "book" are around the world? Not "style or graphic" version.
- How many version of Bible is present at the moment? And if we pick a bible of 60-70 years ago, is it the same ( same words) of the actual?

I don't think this time I am a straw man (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man) just want to share with you my personal opinion. Thanks for the attention.

Yes, the Quran does not contain any miracles.
3352  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mandatory Bitcoin purchasing, to be performed by each state on: April 09, 2015, 04:45:53 PM
I propose a purchasing agreement, which mandates every state in the World to buy a certain amount of Bitcoin every year. The amount will be coupled to the country's respective GDP and could be something along the lines of 0.001%-0.01% of it. The states have to hold on to their purchased coins for a given amount of time until they can invest them again.

Which other rules and what conditions and timeframes for selling off the coins do you suggest should be implemented?

Do you remember that it is a decentralised technology, why put this strictly rules? Everyone can buy and sell how much bitcoin he wants, and this is how bitcoin is better than other currency. Sorry but I don't support your idea.

In addition to other religious threads.

http://rt.com/news/247857-turkey-muslims-toilet-paper/

Quote
“If water cannot be found for cleansing, other cleaning materials can be used. Even though some sources deem paper to be unsuitable as a cleaning material, as it is an apparatus for writing, there is no problem in using toilet paper,” the ruling says, as reported by Hurriyet Daily News.

Congratulations.

P.S. But water is better anyway. Cheesy

Read:

The use of toilet paper has been declared halal by Turkey's religious authority Diyanet, after centuries of forbiddance by Islamic toilet etiquette. The Turkish Directorate of Religious Affairs has issued a fatwa (Muslim religious ruling) stating that it's now acceptable to use toilet paper for personal hygiene, but only if water is nowhere to be found.


It is a "country religion" decision, I think it doesn't exist any law in Islam that forbid you to use toilet paper (but maybe I am wrong). This is the first time that I have read a news of this type.
3355  Other / Meta / Re: Do something to prevent the same user bidding an auction maliciously on: April 09, 2015, 01:37:24 PM
Could ask them to post the payment transaction and look at the taint, but its marginally useful at best. I don't think there's a good way to stop this behaviour as long as smurfs are allowed.

I don't think alts will pay the amount. They obviously want to raise the price not to be winner.

See the post above yours.

If someone of "his" hipotetical alt will win the auction he can send the money (to himself) and try again to resell that thing another time (with another alt account). So it is possible to simulate a win, and it will not exist a real solution of this problem.
3356  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Need to know more about cold storage on: April 09, 2015, 12:42:43 PM
Hello!
Actually what is a cold storage (in bitcoins)?
I didn't get it..
Cold storage doesn't have private keys or what? If it have a private key then cold storage can also be hacked by some malware, keyloggers, etc., right?
An online wallet can be used as a cold storage?
Or
i should have any special equipments for cold storage?
Cold storage is something like bit mixer/laundry?
Cold storage transactions are off blockchain?

~Rude Boy
Cold storage means you should never let your private key to be online. If your private key connected to internet, you are not absolutely safe.

This is not 100 percent true.  It means it is stored offline.   But you can use a computer that is not a web surfing computer to load it and fill up your hot wallet if needed.

You do try to make sure to use it as less as possible.   And keep offline as much as possible.

What does it mean exactly  Grin? There are only two option : online & offline. You can't keep it offline as much possible, for keep offline a machine/device you should follow these rules:

- Don't connect to an internet connection,
- Disable the "network card",
- Keep the device in a secure place.

Ok no problem, it was only a question to see if someone can prove that "be a muslim" means "be a terrorist". There is not a logical fallacy, it is only an opinion. Thanks for your opinion.
I understand that was how you were asked the question and that it was not you making the Strawman argument.

Of course it makes no sense to me because I have many Muslim friends and they have about the same attitude about terrorism as I do.  But then I suspect there is a vast difference between relatively secular Muslims in the USA and those in say Saudi Arabia or Pakistan.

As I said previously I have also a lot of friend (from a various Religion) and none of them is "by definition" violent/rude and it is normal and obvious that all the religions/faiths don't teach the violence but them teach the peace the interchange between the various religion. So I can say that Islam doesn't hate people.
3358  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do islam hates people? on: April 09, 2015, 12:05:48 PM
We should analyze the word 'terrorism'. Everyone who provide terror (a real terror) to a group of person with a weapon, knife etcetera ... By the definition is a terrorist, now the history can speak itself because not all the Muslim are terrorist and not all the terrorist are muslim. I think it's wrong to link the word Islam to the word terrorism, can you explain to us why aren't all the muslim terrorists?

Thanks for your input. Was the last questions to me? I didn't get you correctly. I should prove all muslims aren't terrorist? Huh

No, it is not only for you but for all who "watching" this thread. They should prove that all the muslim are terrorists and why the most victim of those attacks are muslims. I really can't understand this theory because I have a lot of friends from numerous Religion (jewish, muslim, hinduism,Sikhism and christianity) and none of them is a terrorist.

Strawman logical fallacy.    Misrepresent the opponent's argument, exggerate  and distort it, claim it is the argument he has, and then show you ridiculous it is and claim you've disproved "his" argument.

No I have only asked to demonstrate that all the muslims are terrorists, if someone can do it I think he should write a paper and spread it online. I think no one can demonstrate at 100% that Islam means terrorism (sorry for the previous post, I hope you will understand the concept). I think all we know what is mean the word "Islam", isn't it?
This is exactly the definition of the "strawman logical fallacy."

Can I ask you , where is the problem if someone think those things are a miracle because they are written a lot of years before "the civilization[/in]". Everyone's free to believe at whatever he wants or am I wrong? The only things he should not it is to force other people to believe to those things.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, they are not entitled to their own facts.

If you start a thread titled, "Miracles of Quran", expect to be asked to objectively prove your claim. Otherwise you're just demanding we all stfu and listen to the bullshit 'wisdom' being spouted by the delusional and intellectually dishonest.

No, I am not demanding to "stfu" and listen to all their "miracles"; only a little bit of respect of the other opinions, and I know some people can't agree in something ... this is normal, but I also think that there are a lot of way to reply.

I can't comment on "Mosque" as it looks like photoshopped. However, it may or may not be true. I haven't researched about it.

There's no reason to suspect it is photoshopped, simply understanding basic science would explain why the MOST SOLIDLY built structure in the vicinity managed to survive while those NOT BUILT TO THE SAME STANDARD as the mosque, were swept away.
That close to the ocean, how would you have a good foundation?  It's not impossible, say they dug ten meters down and started piling rock up to the surface, then built the mosque.  Just unlikely. 

IF IT'S NOT PHOTOSHOPPED....then let's have the location of that beach and mosque and we'll look at it on Google Earth.

Like I said, I haven't believed in it. I will have to research more about it but atm, I am using mobile. Will try to post here about the source of that image and whether the mosque is real etc...

The photo is real Wink, check the article of the various online newspapers .
