@OMGIWhat

You're all over the place. Look at your first comment. Look at my response to it.

Now look at your response to my response. Stick to the points you made originally, or concede that my reply is why you shifted goal posts.

Regardless: None of this has anything to do with the concepts raised in the video.

"also while we pulled out of Iraq. Iran declared victory"

We haven't pulled out of Iraq. And people all throughout the Middle East declare nebulous victories as often as I blink.

"I understand John Lennon"

John Lennon/poetry is entirely irrelevant here.

"You have been there. You had your friend shot right?"

Be less vague.

"say what you say in Iran, you would of been silenced long ago"

That depends on whether I'd have an internet connection, like I do here. Saying this outside, even here in Canada, has consequences. Irrelevant anyway, since I critiqued US foreign policy. Doing so in Iran makes one blend right in.

Now take an actual quote from the video & argue it.

"a comment telling that you are wrong"

Yeah that's just too clever.

"A committee was set up to prepare the Islamisation of the Libyan legal system. The committee’s activities resulted in four laws with regard to the hadd crimes and related offences, enacted between 1972 and 1974"

4 laws. 4 fucking laws added, with secularism gaining ground heavily following the 70s, as stated before. Sharia law =/= couple of pro-Islam laws

'What the fuck is this?' A comment telling you that you are wrong.

'None of this information is difficult to find online' Ok, source?

[AntiBullshitMan]

What the fuck is this? Did you not read over the rather long exchange in which I already proved your claim as being false? I'd imagine you did seeing as how you replied to the tail end of that, meaning you'd have read the following: With Secularism predominantly gaining ground as early as '74, Islamicisation of laws came to a halt. He published "The Green Book" in '75, then made further concessions to Secularism in many areas by the late 70s.

None of this information is difficult to find online

Sharia WAS in effect during his reign. This is fact.

Our ability to go further in debt in a semi linear upward fashion depends on GDP to parallel that line of the graph.If oil triples in price The GDP line will go negative and we will get stagflation.The 15 trillion debt can't weather that. The game will be over. That why we spend billions defending those oil fields. As long as the world is addicted to oil, not much will change.

That was quite impressive. Not everyone can speak for a half hour on a topic and remain articulate throughout.

@KarujaSipelgas

Pft, if even that! - China aren't *exactly* going along with International Law in terms of Press Freedom and Human Rights, Russia's War Crimes in Chechnya and against its own people including Putin/Berezovsky's Kleptocracy, America's decision (Under Clinton, also a War Criminal) that they can rescind the Geneva Convention, Britain's decision that they can ignore the rulings of the European Court of Human Rights.. I largely blame the U.S for the Culture of impunity though.

[MrGOTAMA420]

support our troops should bbe followerd immediately by" bring them home alive now"

[KarujaSipelgas]

Might makes right will stay in international politics for one reason. There is no higher authority then a state. UN is not a government, it does not have any powers over its member states. You break the law and the police comes, you break international law and who comes running? Nobody, most of the time. And i dont see states giving away a large part of their sovereignty to a supranational entity. International law works only because US, Europe, China and Russia play along 8 times out of 10.
