Please visit my channel for the unpopular truth about homosexuality.
A person does not need hatred or any kind of phobia in order to acknowledge important differences between heterosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption and homosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption. Even non-religious people know this.
Homosexual activists, with support from the media, have succeeded at framing themselves as noble victims; it's an effective way to push a social agenda.
Great, so your point is that there aren't many democratic movements, and certainly none of note, in Islamic countries. Whose fault is that? Maybe it could have something to do with outlaw radicals killing everyone who stands up to them. Middle East=Wild West.
@MrBeumel he doesn't need to be voted with pieces of paper to be people's choice (democracy)... And in many ways buddhist religious principles are a much better guide than western hyper-consumption/all for the money maxims. We should open our minds to other ways and create our own or we are being as extremist as terrorists (like US foreign policies).
For this debate, i think we should start by defining democracy. Supposed to be the govenment BY the people, For the people etc... We are governed by financial powers, who are driving us to alienation, unconsciousness and self destruction as a planet! ERROR: CURRENT DEMOCRACY NOT WORKING

Brilliant message and so applicable not just to extremism in the Middle East but also in corrupt and irresposnible political movements in Africa. I hope people pay heed to your message and use it for growing their Democratic Movements. The reality is that due to apathy, many people sit back and let poor leaders (non leaders) corrupt and mislead the public (esspecially the youth / youth movements) into following really bad ideas. Responsible well meaning democratic leaders should step up.
In order to achieve this we must strive for a reconciliation model that offers space to all valuable human characteristics. In this way it will become clear to us what the main values and shortcomings are of each culture, including our own culture. It is by far the best and possibly also the only solution if we do not want the world to suffer further narrow-mindedness and intolerance.
A democratic system is no guarantee of a free society, since a majority can always overwhelm, disenfranchise or even eliminate the minority. That is, if by "democracy" he is talking about majority rule.
@courtesyZone Explicit in the transnational democratic movement is that universal human rights are unassailable, and that forms of pluralistic representation are guaranteed within a framework that acknowledges fundamental humanistic ethics, seperation of powers, and the rule of law. The majority cannot, therefore, disenfranchise a minority. Where we give rise to institutions that impinge on these principles, democracy has effectively been relinquished.
@DorakoftheHillPeople Unfortunately, it isn't. You mention that it is "guaranteed within a framework", but don't say who specifically guarantees this, nor who would be culpable if a person's rights were trampled on. If no one specific is answerable, then there are no guarantees.
@courtesyZone Phrased in that manner, the question is impossible to answer. Obviously it would depend on the society, the system, and etc circumstance. Regardless, it seems somewhat moot in consideration of the caveats aforementioned. The fundamental purpose and first responsibility of any valid constitutional democracy is to guarantee rights. If a such a society fails to protect an individual's rights, and there are no means for redress, then it simply isn't working. All are responsible.
@DorakoftheHillPeople that leaves us with a situation much like the tragedy of the commons, where when all are responsible, no one is really responsible. The purest form of democracy is mob rule, and every member of a mob will blame the other guy. In a republic, someone specific takes responsibility, and that person is answerable if any individual's rights are violated.
@courtesyZone Well, again I think you're talking about circumstances that are not reflective of the system I've described, and making characterizations based on those. Consider that you may be on the verge of a strawman. As to the 'tragedy of the commons', I'd said that all are responsible in a society that is, or has become, patently undemocratic. So within that context, you may be correct. But a republic could very easily be one of these, and history evinces that it quite often is.
@DorakoftheHillPeople generalities, such as "all are responsible", are unenforceable unless someone specific is responsible for enforcement. If rights are guaranteed, someone specific must be the go-to person when rights are violated. To put it in practical terms, I need to know which office and agent to complain to if my neighbors decide to throw a party in my backyard. If it depended on a pure democratic vote of my neighbors, I'd lose, 50 to 1. That's why I prefer a republic.
terrorist is how your faith was started and you know that it is the only way that you can spread your islam BY FORCE or by WAR or by CONTROL.
In history all the way back to the day of your war lord mohammed you people have been killing rapeing and stealing from country to contry... lets take TIPU the muslims king... he stripped nakid men women and children of christian and hindu and made them walk nakid and raped the women... even stealing 10,000 children to train into the army and convert them
Banning Halal & Kosher murder methods is not a stance against freedom of religion: it is a stance against torture. All murder, be it of human or non-human animal, should be illegal, & banning throat-slitting of those who are as aware as a young human children is a step in the good direction.
look. if scientists vowed to use their knowledge for the good of man, then wars will die out. there will just be no way to fight. Albert Einstein believed in this.(even though what i say may be slightly different.)
@toyracers : Nope. Buddhism isn't a problem. Jainism isn't a problem. There is no reason to point fingers at other great and peaceful religions in the world out of a misplaced political correctness when the problem is with ISLAM. The one religion that is actively supremacist, totalitarian, megalomaniacal in the world today and claims to be "The Religion of Peace". You know, people like you make us want to re-affirm a very popular sentiment in the world today: FUCK ISLAM.
@geodesicks As is ignorace. Your boardering on taliban level of rational here. Islamic civilisations contributed significantly to humanity. We'd still be using roman numerals if it wasnt for Islamic mathematicians. Go read up on Al-Khawarizmi

Democracy does have powerful symbolic figures. Aung San Suu Kyi, for example, or the Dalai Lama. But it certainly is true that people are strongly motivated to correct things they see as wrong, or to protect what they see as being gravely at risk. People intensely demand freedom for themselves, and much less so freedom and equal rights for others.
Basically make groups to promote democracy, the thing is democracy and politics is not "cool" in the eyes of the youth alot of them are intrested in the opposite gender, drugs, alcohol and everything they are seeing on tv, music and games alot of promotes violence. Social order to take form needs kids to glorify the utopia idea and build up from that as Nelson Mandella had a dream but to have a newer dream for the world.
"EXTREMISM" is an ANTI-CONCEPT. Measurements as such have no value-significance, and acquire it only from the nature of that which is being measured. Are extreme health and extreme disease equal? Extreme intelligence and extreme stupidity? Extreme honesty and extreme dishonesty? Are men of extreme virtue and extreme depravity equally evil? These examples can be multiplied indefinitely - particularly in the field of morality where only an "extreme" degree of virtue can be called a virtue.
as long as human beings walk the Earth , wars will always be fought , "innocent" people will always be slaughtered , and the other person will ALWAYS know he's right...and there will ALWAYS be idiots claiming they kill because their god told them to.
@ihallthirteen they can also not believe in God you ass hole, like stalin and mao. They didn't need any God to kill people, did they? Fuck off don't bring God in every bad thing if you don't believe in him.
@alihammadshah HEY , aliamabigbagofshit....your little rant means as much to me as dog shit on the bottom of someone else's shoe..i guess you were there with stalin and mao and knew everything that went through their fucking minds...DIPSHIT.....now go beat your wife and pray for the destruction of America or whatever it is you fucking idiots do
@ihallthirteen my rant doesn't mean anything to you.? Well it doesn't mean you are not still a piece of shit. And mao and stalin were atheist you cunt of an ass wipe.
@alihammadshah why did this man in this video not talk about how islam went to war with the world on its start of islam? why did he miss that section of history out and went stright into debate agianst europe lol.
Its because he knows that the crusades was created to beat the liveing hell out of the muslims that wiped out the hindus and the christians and the buddist in asia, the flood of ottomen came into europe but was smashed back by the british and the french ect...
@jimbob202019 "why did this man in this video not talk about how islam went to war with the world on its start of islam?" Because the video wasn't about that.
@ihallthirteen i dissagree, i think aslong as we allow ourselfs to be ruled by a leader and stop making choices for ourselfs there will always be wars. when we learn to live peacfully without a leader or create a system that doesnt rely on control, then we will be free and wars will be unessessary.
the problem it controll and controllers, leaders and rulers. globalization is simply agrovating this causing people to turn to other 'leaders' for help when really we need to do stuff for ourselfs.
@ihallthirteen You are a defeatist who has surrendered to this propaganda. This situation we find ourselves in will only be the case if people keep propagating this idea. There are many many societies in this world which are not the industrialized monetarist west that get along just fine and never engage in such nightmarish practices (though there were many more before the arrival of western imperialism). Please look further than the information that the media feeds you.
Just engage and debunk the oxymoronic crap that holiness is dying for Allah and such sacrifice is the passport to a paradise of carnal pleasures is the surest way of putting the Islamic jihadists out of business. But Western governments shun this approach using political correctness as a guise for their cowardice, and so the malady lingers on.
@achahei Western governments don't need to do that. People just need to actually read the Quran, get educated and they wouldn't have that problem. Note how all the jihadists are rich, secularly-educated guys, not religious scholars. It wouldn't be politically correct to counter their arguments, it would just religiously correct. Suicide is already a sin and so is killing innocent people and forcing people to be one religion or another. Like Nawaz said,it's all about politics and power.
@thepumpkin25 at the same time, couldn't the extremist turn around and have the same attitude with you? You say that no one wants to bother with his people and that they should be 'nuked'. What if someone turns around and says you're an intolerant racist and that you should be 'nuked'? You wouldn't be so happy about that, would you?
@thepumpkin25 you may not be racist, as you claim, but you should really learn proper grammar when participating in any sort of debate. Nobody will take you seriously when you say "burning are flags in there streets". It should be "burning OUR flags in THEIR streets".
Are you dumb or what little mexican bitch? THey just dont strap bombs just cause you are from a different religion. Cause if thats the case most of the terrorist victims wouldnt have been Muslims themselves. The reason most suicide bombings happen is because of OCCUPATION retard. From Mahmudiya Killings to Abu Gharib, Bagram, to trophy kills to carpet bombing,cluster bombing day after day cause more ppl to side the other way. You are too dumb to understand it bitch.
@thepumpkin25 LOL my 'non sense'. Aww you're so adorable but maybe you should spend more time worrying about your education and less time worrying about how much of a 'dumb bitch' I am. :) and FYI, the suicide bombings didn't just RANDOMLY occur one day.. Do you honestly think that a group of people randomly decided that they hate America for no reason whatsoever. Be real, love. There is no innocent party anymore.
Its ironic how he is advocating for democracy and freedom of belief when people in the comments are completely shitting on his attempt to revive democracy and speaking out for what you (although we might not all agree) believe in.
Moose2121, I didn't say Democracies were falling, only that they were taking a beating. I guess I was thinking of the U.S. were certain laws are being "passed" without anyone voting on them or, when they do have the chance to vote on them the courts overturn them. That's what I was thinking of.
11 Million East Africans are starving, don't have water, food and our governments don't have 350 Million Dollars for U.N. food while spending Billions on WAR and bailing out Speculating Banks that caused the food price explosion in the third world!!!! Protest For Humanity!
This is great. I'm glad its on TED. Cultural anthropology has touched this issue. I wrote a paper about religious extremism and he hits a couple of points on this. He also has read a lot of social science papers. This is quality work. I don't 100% agree with his solution to the problem but it is one step closer to the right direction.
well the arab uprising in Jordan is somewhat triggered by the US/ Iraq War. Flood of refugee' moved to Jordan. The population of Jordan increased 25% within 5 years. Jordan also deals with 1.5 million Palestian refugees. Within the last decade Jordan population almost DOUBLES. Unemployment rate increased significantly. The poor is poorer and everything goes bad from there. Economy turns to crap. Revolt is imminent. This is a great speech.
@ItsPeterSpam lol you are a DUMB ASS this is 2011 shut the fuck up and get with the program racisim is not cool dude racist people are the bane of humanity
What about countless examples of media helping democratic forces organize? This guy is a broken record and a terrorist asswipe. I wonder if this guy had acid poured into his urethra in Egypt.
Sharia4Australia, which is pushing for the introduction of sharia courts as a first step towards achieving Islamic law. "One day Australia will live under sharia;it's inevitable,"he said. "If they (Australians) don't accept it,that's not our problem. We hope,and our objective is to have a peaceful transition,but when you look at history that has never been the case. There's always been a fight. It is inevitable that one day there will be a struggle for Islam in Australia." Siddiq-Conlon
"There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe –without swords,without guns,without conquests. The 50 million Muslims of Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades. Allah mobilizes the Muslim nation of Turkey and adds it to the European Union,that’s another 50 million Muslims…Europe is in a predicament and so is America. They should agree to become Islamic in the course of time or else declare war on the Muslims." Muammar-al-Gaddafi
@fsfer NO idiot hes asking for democracy in these countries... five years of prison woke him up from the lies n brainwashing he had when he found god he knew wt was right n wrong know he will stop at nothing to see these people stopped... and help the world n these fellow countries.
@fsfer all i know.. its newer to late.. to get your head right... if he wass so fucked up still after prison.. i dont think he would last a chance to get a speach like that... there are lots of check points.. before the real thing.. dont you think...
I gotta hand it to this guy. When Malcolm X tried to show the world that those he once supported were wrong, he got assassinated for it. It takes nards to not only admit you are wrong, but to admit a group with no qualms in mass murder are wrong.
Fuck globalisim! My grandparents fought a world war to prevent a one-world, unelected govt and now all the international corporations want to create a global-government run by them. That is fascim by definition. The reason Islam has "radicals" is because the west is stealing their land and bombing the shit out of them!
The real terrorists in this world are the unelected banks that create money from NOTHING and indebt our govts. to them and guess what, these banks aren't run by Muslims!
@dlucas90 It's one thing to oppose globalization; nations should maintain independence and identity, but know your enemy. Building a standard economy doesn't shackle people, corrupt governments that make and deny (ambiguously) rights for their people are the problem. When nations start telling their citizens what they can and can't do with their money, or when they excessively tax it away from them then there's a bigger problem. Businesses have no power over people unless they monopolize.
@bulldog300 You are right in saying "know your enemy", that is the problem. Unelected central banks are creating money from debt(NOTHING) and indebting our govts. to them. Who do you think is running the show, the banks or the govts. that borrow counterfeit money from the banks?
When you borrow money from a bank, you serve the bank.
When "your" govt. borrows money from a bank, "your" govt. serves the bank.
When all the govts. borrows money from the IMF, all the govts. serves the IMF!
@bulldog300 The govt. doesn't feel the reprocusions of govt. spending money it doesn't have, rather, the public that gets taxed to pay back the bank does. To use your analogy, the govt. stuffs its face with hamburgers and the public has to do the exercise.
Would you have a problem with Congress "borrowing" counterfeit money from me? I will "do you a favor" and only charge half the interest the "fed" reserve does. That way I control what Congress gets loan for and I get filthy rich!
@dlucas90 That analogy might have worked if the government was borrowing money from itself, but borrowing from a foreign entity is another matter. The gov loses a lot of long term when it is in debt to foreign powers. I'm not saying the gov is competent, but I'm saying your analogy about the matter is wrong. The gov does have a great deal of say on where they obtain their money.
Inflation. that's all that needs to be said about paragraph 2 Counterfeit is the illegal production of money btw
@bulldog300 Where ever the govt. gets its money, it will be from a central bank, a branch of the IMF. All central banks create the money they loan from debt(nothing), it only serves to create the illusion that we "owe" another nation money. If the govt. is going to spend money created from debt(nothing), why not create the money themselves? There is no legitimate reason to "borrow" money created from nothing at INTEREST unless the goal is to give the privately owned bank power over the govt.
@dlucas90 Simple, because banks act as brokers for currency exchange. We borrow money from whoever loans it to us , and in order to facilitate a fair medium of exchange a third party needs to be involved. The world banks act as a staging ground for lending because:
A. It's available to most nations, encouraging a free market.
B. It accepts all forms of currency; many private investors won't.
Interest is how banks make a profit. No profit, no banks. This isn't a conspiracy, just capitalism.
@bulldog300 Nothing could be further from the truth than your claim that banks "encourage a free market". Banks encourage monopolies. Banks destroy competative forces. It makes no sense for a central bank to loan money to more than one business of the same kind. Furthermore, banks can not lose, they loan out money they DO NOT HAVE and expect it to be repayed with interest or they get the collateral the borrower used to obtain the loan. It is a win-win for the bank! No risk!........
@dlucas90 Worst of all, all the money in our money supply comes from the PRINCIPLE of bank loans. Unfortunately, all that money is owed back to the bank plus INTEREST, for which no money exists. In other words, if "x" is the total money supply and "i" is they interest, the bank is always "owed" x+y but the total money supply only consists of "x", so a new bigger loan must always be taken from the bank to pay off yesterdays x+y. That is a mathematically unservicable contract, therefore FRAUD!
@dlucas90 The banks aren't some faceless entity that corrupt nations; they're just a group of shareholders, account holders and private interests that seeks to gain a profit from the financial district. You should be grateful they exist, because without money lending your nation couldn't grow at all.
"The modern banking system manufactures money from nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of seight of hand that was ever invented.
Banking was concieved in iniquity and born in sin.
Bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them a with the ability to create money, and with the flick of a pen they will create enough money to buy it back agian.
Take this great power away from them and all great fortunes like mine will disappear, ........cont'
.......... for then this would be a better and happier world to live in.
But if you want to continue to be slaves to the banks and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let bankers continue to create money and control credit."

Director, Bank of England 1928-1941
(reputed to be the second richest man in England at the time)
@dlucas90 I hate to break it to you, smashing your conspiracy theory in the process, but again it's governments. The Fereral reserve, mandate on the interest of government bonds and yes, their choice on how much U.S. money circulates the world dictates all of this. Banks just HOLD money, they don't produce it. the US gov produces dollars, the European Union makes Euros and so on. That's how they regulate Macro economics. Not sure who told you that private banks produced money.
@bulldog300 If the govt.s created their own money, they wouldn't owe it to banks. In other words, there would be no "national debt" owed to central banks.
Watch "Money As Debt" for a good intro on how money comes into existence. Money is not created by our govt., rather, it is created by banks and loaned to the govt.
@dlucas90 Yeah, well.. except the Federal Reserve Act. The panic of 1907 convinced us that the Federal Reserve Act was a great idea. J.P. Morgan isn't around to save us anymore.
That 'counterfeit money' thing you keep fussing about is a function of the 'fractional-reserve banking system' and it's a good thing. I dare you to name an alternative better than burying my money in the backyard.
@Phatphingah For nearly 100 years prior to the "federal" reserve act, there was 0 inflation. The panic of 1907 was caused by SOME banks loaning money they didn't have to loan. The govt.'s answer was to HIRE a private central bank that was legally allowed to loan money it didn't have. In other words the govt. legalized a counterfeit operation so it could "borrow" money it otherwise wouldn't have to spend.
This may come as a shock to you but banks used to be used to store real money.
@dlucas90 : Really, shithead? Where were the global banks and bombing the shit out of them through the 1400 years of Islamic imperialism that slaughtered close to 80 million in India and 60 million in North Africa? The west is bombing the shit out of them because they tried their supremacist bullshit, rooted in bullshit theology. And the west's politeness in dealing with Islam is turning out to be the biggest danger, it is trying to use a chisel where an axe would be more appropriate.
@geodesicks By your "logic", Christians should be slaughtered for the way they treated native people around the world for the last 1000 years!
Every group has their extremist nut jobs, even atheists who use junk science to justify eugenics. All I know is that the "Islamic" terrorists is the MODERN day scape goat. You think Muslim terrorists crawled into Building 7 and wired it for demolition on 911? Any unbiased individual watching the collapse of building 7 KNOWS it was a demolition
Hey why not take this to Tel Aviv and let the settlers listen to what this guy has to say. Maybe, just maybe the land grabbing "peaceful" settlers will listen see the errors of their ways, give back the stolen lands, and we can all sing Kumbiya in the streets.. yeah... when the second coming of Christ is here and guess what?? that will never happen. Fucking idiots!!
"This guy" was advocating democracy in the Middle East. I have no idea why he'd want to go to Israel, the only real democratic country there. The Israeli government is willing to give back some land if they thought it would make a difference. No, I believe he should go to Palestine, and advocate them to uprise and not allow people to believe their legitimate authority is terror groups like HAMAS and Fatah (it's military branch, Al-Aqsa Martyr's Brigade, is known to be terrorist)
Psychoburgandy6 As I said, I am leery. As for the turn around, I don't think it happened in one day. As he said he was jailed for his behavior and I suspect that when one is rotting away in a small stuffy cell it gives one time to think. I hope he's legit but as I also said time will tell. One thing that he didn't do was give an example of how to establish the youth-led grass-roots democracy movement. Also he repeatedly said "I think" instead of "this is fact." I give him credit for that.
So, our answer, he says, our need, is a "youth led....grass roots....democratic activism on the ground...propagating democracy". The truth is.....we need power.....not the power of smiling.....not the power of creativity....not the power of education. What we need and have not had and do not have in the modern culture or modern church is the power of God. When the power of God moved and the preaching of the pure Gospel of Christ Crucified occurred, some or many believed. Nineveh repented.
All who believe that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for their sins, was buried and rose again will have eternal life in Heaven. Call upon the Lord Jesus Christ and believe in Him for eternal life! God loves you, and Jesus is the way.
He certainly is articulate. He's very charismatic as well. Perhaps by giving such talks he believes he is paying for old "sins". Perhaps he is. If he can cause what he espouses then I say more power to him and like-minded thinkers. I am a bit leery but that's because I think that people like him are rare. But do hear me: I could be wrong. In fact I most certainly hope that I am wrong. His ideas sound good. Time will tell. One thing that he said is dead on: Democracy's taking a beating.
@E5Bobby Hitler was articulate and charismatic too, and he had some ideas that certainly sounded good on paper. Then he started exterminating people left and right.
Yeah. I am highly skeptical of this guy. You don't just recruit terrorists and call for violence against innocent people like this guy has and then turn around one day and decide to speak out against it. I have a feeling something is up with this guy.
@PsychoBurgundy6 well... Hitler also based his ideas on exterminating people left and right :P he was frgging obvious about his methods that he would use, to lead Germany to power.
Im skeptical of this guy, but i'm not unduly so. Give him some opportunity, maybe even some money. We're spending billions on killing Arabs in the ME every day. Why not spend the same amount, to reform the ME, instead of only intervening to end trouble zones. :)
Except Hitler was always on a one way track, this is not the case for this man here. You're scared because of his skin, plain and simple. You can fight me, or anyone else on this comment page tooth and nail to deny it, but it's true. No extremist in their right mind would dare turn against their beliefs, there's a reason they are what they are. For this man to change his mind and to show his face to fight against it, takes some balls.
He certainly has good political language , but his idea's are that of a pure optimist. Whilst talking about the need for building democracy's from the bottom upwards is ideal , it has never ever worked in human history without international governmental action and pressure , and usually results in huge blood shed, so the need for governmental growth is needed. None the less what muslim extremists need is time to evolve and or be eradicated.
at least he had the guts to come up here and take to u racists i support this dude he is awesome...u assholes are in deep shit nd now u are aware of it...so ur panicking...its ok that usually wat people with a weak faith do!!
@MsSLAYER96 I am EXTREMELY fucking sick of people bandying about the term "racist" whenever somebody disagrees with them even slightly on ANYTHING. The fact remains that he was a former terrorist recruiter that called for violence against innocent people. You can't redeem yourself from that just by saying a few words on a pulpit and making money and fame off it. That's not the way it works. If you REALLY care about fighting racism, go DDOS some white supremacist or KKK or David Duke websites.
YOU GUYS MIGHT NOT READ AND CARE BOUT THIS COMMENT BUT IT'S WORTH THE TRY>>>>>GUYS PLEASE TYPE LOWDY LOW - LOVERS AND HATERS AND HAVE A LISTEN TO IT....IT'S A SONG I JUST WROTE.....:D
LOL is he kidding me? ........another Arab trying to make money on the brain washed by media people. Those who are listening to him are even more stupid than he is
Understand that I have EXTREME reservations about this guy. You don't just redeem yourself from committing acts of terrorism that easily. You just can't. It takes a lot more than saying a few words speaking out about it onstage.

The reality is that due to apathy, many people sit back and let poor leaders (non leaders) corrupt and mislead the public (esspecially the youth / youth movements) into following really bad ideas. Responsible well meaning democratic leaders should step up.

In order to achieve this we must strive for a reconciliation model that offers space to all valuable human characteristics. In this way it will become clear to us what the main values and shortcomings are of each culture, including our own culture. It is by far the best and possibly also the only solution if we do not want the world to suffer further narrow-mindedness and intolerance.

A democratic system is no guarantee of a free society, since a majority can always overwhelm, disenfranchise or even eliminate the minority. That is, if by "democracy" he is talking about majority rule.
courtesyZone 6 months ago
@courtesyZone Explicit in the transnational democratic movement is that universal human rights are unassailable, and that forms of pluralistic representation are guaranteed within a framework that acknowledges fundamental humanistic ethics, seperation of powers, and the rule of law. The majority cannot, therefore, disenfranchise a minority. Where we give rise to institutions that impinge on these principles, democracy has effectively been relinquished.

@DorakoftheHillPeople, Guaranteed by whom?
courtesyZone 6 months ago
@courtesyZone Please re-read. It should be apparent.
DorakoftheHillPeople 6 months ago
@DorakoftheHillPeople Unfortunately, it isn't. You mention that it is "guaranteed within a framework", but don't say who specifically guarantees this, nor who would be culpable if a person's rights were trampled on. If no one specific is answerable, then there are no guarantees.
courtesyZone 6 months ago
@courtesyZone Phrased in that manner, the question is impossible to answer. Obviously it would depend on the society, the system, and etc circumstance. Regardless, it seems somewhat moot in consideration of the caveats aforementioned. The fundamental purpose and first responsibility of any valid constitutional democracy is to guarantee rights. If a such a society fails to protect an individual's rights, and there are no means for redress, then it simply isn't working. All are responsible.
DorakoftheHillPeople 6 months ago
@DorakoftheHillPeople that leaves us with a situation much like the tragedy of the commons, where when all are responsible, no one is really responsible. The purest form of democracy is mob rule, and every member of a mob will blame the other guy. In a republic, someone specific takes responsibility, and that person is answerable if any individual's rights are violated.
courtesyZone 6 months ago
@courtesyZone Well, again I think you're talking about circumstances that are not reflective of the system I've described, and making characterizations based on those. Consider that you may be on the verge of a strawman. As to the 'tragedy of the commons', I'd said that all are responsible in a society that is, or has become, patently undemocratic. So within that context, you may be correct. But a republic could very easily be one of these, and history evinces that it quite often is.
DorakoftheHillPeople 6 months ago
@DorakoftheHillPeople generalities, such as "all are responsible", are unenforceable unless someone specific is responsible for enforcement. If rights are guaranteed, someone specific must be the go-to person when rights are violated. To put it in practical terms, I need to know which office and agent to complain to if my neighbors decide to throw a party in my backyard. If it depended on a pure democratic vote of my neighbors, I'd lose, 50 to 1. That's why I prefer a republic.

Democracy does have powerful symbolic figures. Aung San Suu Kyi, for example, or the Dalai Lama. But it certainly is true that people are strongly motivated to correct things they see as wrong, or to protect what they see as being gravely at risk. People intensely demand freedom for themselves, and much less so freedom and equal rights for others.

"EXTREMISM" is an ANTI-CONCEPT. Measurements as such have no value-significance, and acquire it only from the nature of that which is being measured. Are extreme health and extreme disease equal? Extreme intelligence and extreme stupidity? Extreme honesty and extreme dishonesty? Are men of extreme virtue and extreme depravity equally evil? These examples can be multiplied indefinitely - particularly in the field of morality where only an "extreme" degree of virtue can be called a virtue.

@bulldog300 Where ever the govt. gets its money, it will be from a central bank, a branch of the IMF. All central banks create the money they loan from debt(nothing), it only serves to create the illusion that we "owe" another nation money. If the govt. is going to spend money created from debt(nothing), why not create the money themselves? There is no legitimate reason to "borrow" money created from nothing at INTEREST unless the goal is to give the privately owned bank power over the govt.
dlucas90 7 months ago
@dlucas90 Simple, because banks act as brokers for currency exchange. We borrow money from whoever loans it to us , and in order to facilitate a fair medium of exchange a third party needs to be involved. The world banks act as a staging ground for lending because:
A. It's available to most nations, encouraging a free market.
B. It accepts all forms of currency; many private investors won't.
Interest is how banks make a profit. No profit, no banks. This isn't a conspiracy, just capitalism.
bulldog300 7 months ago
@bulldog300 Nothing could be further from the truth than your claim that banks "encourage a free market". Banks encourage monopolies. Banks destroy competative forces. It makes no sense for a central bank to loan money to more than one business of the same kind. Furthermore, banks can not lose, they loan out money they DO NOT HAVE and expect it to be repayed with interest or they get the collateral the borrower used to obtain the loan. It is a win-win for the bank! No risk!........
dlucas90 7 months ago
@dlucas90 Worst of all, all the money in our money supply comes from the PRINCIPLE of bank loans. Unfortunately, all that money is owed back to the bank plus INTEREST, for which no money exists. In other words, if "x" is the total money supply and "i" is they interest, the bank is always "owed" x+y but the total money supply only consists of "x", so a new bigger loan must always be taken from the bank to pay off yesterdays x+y. That is a mathematically unservicable contract, therefore FRAUD!

@Phatphingah For nearly 100 years prior to the "federal" reserve act, there was 0 inflation. The panic of 1907 was caused by SOME banks loaning money they didn't have to loan. The govt.'s answer was to HIRE a private central bank that was legally allowed to loan money it didn't have. In other words the govt. legalized a counterfeit operation so it could "borrow" money it otherwise wouldn't have to spend.

Maybe, just maybe the land grabbing "peaceful" settlers will listen see the errors of their ways, give back the stolen lands, and we can all sing Kumbiya in the streets.. yeah... when the second coming of Christ is here and guess what?? that will never happen. Fucking idiots!!

"This guy" was advocating democracy in the Middle East. I have no idea why he'd want to go to Israel, the only real democratic country there. The Israeli government is willing to give back some land if they thought it would make a difference. No, I believe he should go to Palestine, and advocate them to uprise and not allow people to believe their legitimate authority is terror groups like HAMAS and Fatah (it's military branch, Al-Aqsa Martyr's Brigade, is known to be terrorist)

Psychoburgandy6 As I said, I am leery. As for the turn around, I don't think it happened in one day. As he said he was jailed for his behavior and I suspect that when one is rotting away in a small stuffy cell it gives one time to think. I hope he's legit but as I also said time will tell. One thing that he didn't do was give an example of how to establish the youth-led grass-roots democracy movement. Also he repeatedly said "I think" instead of "this is fact." I give him credit for that.

So, our answer, he says, our need, is a "youth led....grass roots....democratic activism on the ground...propagating democracy". The truth is.....we need power.....not the power of smiling.....not the power of creativity....not the power of education. What we need and have not had and do not have in the modern culture or modern church is the power of God. When the power of God moved and the preaching of the pure Gospel of Christ Crucified occurred, some or many believed. Nineveh repented.

All who believe that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for their sins, was buried and rose again will have eternal life in Heaven. Call upon the Lord Jesus Christ and believe in Him for eternal life! God loves you, and Jesus is the way.

He certainly is articulate. He's very charismatic as well. Perhaps by giving such talks he believes he is paying for old "sins". Perhaps he is. If he can cause what he espouses then I say more power to him and like-minded thinkers. I am a bit leery but that's because I think that people like him are rare. But do hear me: I could be wrong. In fact I most certainly hope that I am wrong. His ideas sound good. Time will tell. One thing that he said is dead on: Democracy's taking a beating.

@E5Bobby Hitler was articulate and charismatic too, and he had some ideas that certainly sounded good on paper. Then he started exterminating people left and right.
Yeah. I am highly skeptical of this guy. You don't just recruit terrorists and call for violence against innocent people like this guy has and then turn around one day and decide to speak out against it. I have a feeling something is up with this guy.
PsychoBurgundy6 7 months ago
@PsychoBurgundy6 well... Hitler also based his ideas on exterminating people left and right :P he was frgging obvious about his methods that he would use, to lead Germany to power.
Im skeptical of this guy, but i'm not unduly so. Give him some opportunity, maybe even some money. We're spending billions on killing Arabs in the ME every day. Why not spend the same amount, to reform the ME, instead of only intervening to end trouble zones. :)

Except Hitler was always on a one way track, this is not the case for this man here. You're scared because of his skin, plain and simple. You can fight me, or anyone else on this comment page tooth and nail to deny it, but it's true. No extremist in their right mind would dare turn against their beliefs, there's a reason they are what they are. For this man to change his mind and to show his face to fight against it, takes some balls.

He certainly has good political language , but his idea's are that of a pure optimist. Whilst talking about the need for building democracy's from the bottom upwards is ideal , it has never ever worked in human history without international governmental action and pressure , and usually results in huge blood shed, so the need for governmental growth is needed. None the less what muslim extremists need is time to evolve and or be eradicated.

@MsSLAYER96 I am EXTREMELY fucking sick of people bandying about the term "racist" whenever somebody disagrees with them even slightly on ANYTHING. The fact remains that he was a former terrorist recruiter that called for violence against innocent people. You can't redeem yourself from that just by saying a few words on a pulpit and making money and fame off it. That's not the way it works. If you REALLY care about fighting racism, go DDOS some white supremacist or KKK or David Duke websites.

Understand that I have EXTREME reservations about this guy. You don't just redeem yourself from committing acts of terrorism that easily. You just can't. It takes a lot more than saying a few words speaking out about it onstage.
