  1. I will tell you one thing. Find what interests you and look for the degree that maches this the best without a seconds thought on future perspective. Pursue this with a passion. If you are truly Cap, and you know how to reach people like this, id pass you as a professor. Just find the right motivation, what do YOU wanna learn about?
  2. No! It was three weeks ago, ive been on vacation abroad. The prejudice !
  3. Lol you all can help me, im too stoned to do it right now tbh.
  4. I like your style! Next is the academy award winning Palestinian/Israeli coöperation about the 'now' . What is the 'fabric of life' at the territories. Remember, here Israel has actually no rights whatever! The case of Bi'lin .... http://www.filmsforaction.org/watch/5-broken-cameras-2011/
  5. I know mate. Thats why it is a start as I said in the beginning. I do really like it that you want to see and learn all of it. Im sorry if I sounded too sharp or impatient. My bad.
  6. Um sorry but that is utter bullshit, have you not read my post? 1. Tension about water - Israel did this 2. As the doc and other sources acknowledge - The war was planned long before and had every intention of killing what was left of the famous Balfour declaration: The Balfour Declaration was issued by the British Foreign Minister Lord Arthur Balfour where he announced that his government supports the idea of establishing “a Jewish national home in Palestine, while giving Palestines a land to live in themselves. They did not want this and started a WAR. 3. How? By diverting water from the Jordan River to the Negev Desert . Thus creating much tension politically. They started the war by hitting Syria before there where hostilities and attacking Egypt. all this before 5 june. 4. your statement about 'they wanted to wipe out the Israeli's', i have some sources from the generals then: In an interview published in Le Monde on 28 February 1968, Israeli Chief of Staff Rabin said this: “I do not believe that Nasser wanted war. The two divisions which he sent into Sinai on 14 May would not have been enough to unleash an offensive against Israel. He knew it and we knew it.” On 14 April 1971, a report in the Israeli newspaper Al-Hamishmar contained the following statement by Mordecai Bentov, a member of the wartime national government. “The entire story of the danger of extermination was invented in every detail and exaggerated a posteriori to justify the annexation of new Arab territory.” On 4 April 1972, General Haim Bar-Lev, Rabin’s predecessor as chief of staff, was quoted in Ma’ariv as follows: “We were not threatened with genocide on the eve of the Six Days War, and we had never thought of such a possibility.” In the same Israeli newspaper on the same day, General Ezer Weizmann, Chief of Operations during the war and a nephew of Chaim Weizmann, was quoted as saying: “There was never any danger of annihilation. This hypothesis has never been considered in any serious meeting.” In the spring of 1972, General Matetiyahu Peled, Chief of Logistical Command during the war and one of 12 members of Israel’s General Staff, addressed a political literary club in Tel Aviv. He said: “The thesis according to which the danger of genocide hung over us in June 1967, and according to which Israel was fighting for her very physical survival, was nothing but a bluff which was born and bred after the war.” In a radio debate Peled also said: “Israel was never in real danger and there was no evidence that Egypt had any intention of attacking Israel.” He added that “Israeli intelligence knew that Egypt was not prepared for war.” In the same programme General Chaim Herzog (former Director of Military Intelligence, future Israeli Ambassador to the UN and President of his state) said: “There was no danger of annihilation. Neither Israeli headquarters nor the Pentagon – as the memoirs of President Johnson proved – believed in this danger.” On 3 June 1972 Peled was even more explicit in an article of his own for Le Monde. He wrote: “All those stories about the huge danger we were facing because of our small territorial size, an argument expounded once the war was over, have never been considered in our calculations. While we proceeded towards the full mobilisation of our forces, no person in his right mind could believe that all this force was necessary to our ‘defence’ against the Egyptian threat. This force was to crush once and for all the Egyptians at the military level and their Soviet masters at the political level. To pretend that the Egyptian forces concentrated on our borders were capable of threatening Israel’s existence does not only insult the intelligence of any person capable of analysing this kind of situation, but is primarily an insult to the Israeli army.” So go figure - your entire reasoning is falsified by the Israeli generals THEMSELVES. Isn't that funky.
  7. Well, Israel was there since 1948, this is 1967 and since that "brilliant move" as you say it, which consisted in Israel launching surprise bombing raids against Egyptian air-fields and raiding into the Jordanian-controlled West Bank while initiating flights over Syria which ended with aerial clashes over Syrian territory, and had deployed troops into the demilitarized zones along the Syrian border—all of this before the open attack of June 5, the war never ended. Don't forget the tension with the arabs originally started because Israel adopted a policy of diverting water from the Jordan River to the Negev Desert . So your brilliant solution as you call it (which it was military, but not tactically in the long run - as General peeled, the commander in that war himself has admitted - he even became a friend of the palestinian people) - the reliance on brute force, caused instability in the region or decades and it ..... more important it gave them all the tools to put a whole people in an open air prison ( which is firmly condemned by ALL international parties btw). A lot of it resulting ultimately in the radicalization of Islam in the region. My point is also that this leads to consequences for the Palestinians themselves - the original people of the land, but you don't seem to care about that. I might have made a mistake in giving you those sources though. Your image of arabs is so weird, this should have been the first http://www.filmsforaction.org/watch/reel_bad_arabs/ great documentary btw.
  8. The point is you need more context. One of the main messages was that it wasnt David against Goliath at all as Israel claimed. Also, they performed a preemptive strike on the Egyptian airforce first, the Israeli generals punched through beyond their original mission starting the never ending expanding still going on now, despite UN etc,etc etc. Also: the palestinians where left in the dark by other arabs at the time, etc. It shows the dire fate of the palestinians, who are still now a people left by everyone. Which the entire point of the debate. Your viewing is very ...... weird to say the least if all you conclude it is arabs hating Israel. But hey, it is only a starting point. Im wondering if you can see beyond 'arabs' hating the poor Israelites. Because it is much much more.
  9. Keep it going! He seems a lot sharper than last year already tbh.
