  • "It almost seems as if the more integrated different groups were, the greater the potential for conflict"

    This is bad...the is very very bad.....so the whole multicultural thing that we have been told is a self destructive philosophy ?

  • @Bracerjack Conflicts have the potential to stimulate creative thinking, provide feedback, and serve as a catalyst for change and growth. Conflict is an opportunity for problem solving-because it is in this whole process of meeting and solving problems that life has its meaning. Its only from the pain of confronting conflict or problems that we can summons courage and wisdom. In fact, without conflict or problems, there would be no courage or wisdom.

  • @compazine Intellectual gobbldygoop. This forced mixing of ethnics only leads to conflict. We have enough problems without these artificial conflicts..

  • @dmacid I agree completely, considering that i lived the conflict, this is disturbing how people are brainwashed to think that conflicts are one sided like this.

  • @fixISon piss off commie USA USA

  • @MrBillcale I lost my uncle and sister to muslim Bosnians because they were serb... I won't hate you for your racisit comment, but I realy wish you live to learn about western propaganda and that no people what ever ethnic background they are different. Let god bless your soul not the one of Bill Clinton, who single handedly helped destroy peace in the balkans.

  • @Bracerjack Abstract identity is a REGRESSION of intelligence. The Universe has THREE dimension: not two. 8 million years of destructive tool-use proves this. We are not designed to destroy the earth we live on. All of civilization needs to be gotten rid of before it destroys the EARTH. Everything based upon 2 dimensions in a 3-dimensional Universe is a regression into destructive insanity. The actual truth is the reverse of EVERYTHING that you have been led to believe...

  • @turak0

    Agreed, all human societies unite by defining/finding/creating a common enemy.

    Not so much as a common good will, but a common enemy, which is pretty sad.

    This seems to happen regardless of whether it leads to a detriment [current middle east] or overall wellness of a society.

  • @Bracerjack He explains nothing about the actual dynamics of human history. One basic insanity of modern man is the abstract identities of Imperialism, nationalism, religion, and ethnic culture. All of which are used as an excuses for the commitment of genocide and atrocities. The fact is: all human societies define themselves by an enemy. Without an enemy: no human abstract identity can survive or even exist. The limit of words on this.forum prevents all intelligent discussion

  • god bless the usa and god bless bill clinton

  • if i were a serb i would be ashamed, are you dogs?

  • So this is what an art of bullshit looks like. Completely one sided from episode 1 to episode 7.
