WHERE IS CHARLES LEE???
What went so horribly wrong?
This is a thread involving the Middle East throughout history
Never underestimate the power of Spenposting
"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God."
"Is it not written, you are Gods?"
"To enter the kingdom of heaven, you must be born again."
Maybe Jesus meant these things literally, and Christianity is a church of mysticism but has been misinterpreted throughout the ages.

Even Vikings had to bow to the Muslim warrior in the end, it seems.

It was hell of an adventure and one of the coolest stories in history.
I really enjoy posting on this board and having historical discussions, but it really annoys me to see all the German hate here.
I understand that many people here are annoyed by /pol/, and use the anti-Germanism to oppose nazis, but please be aware: with this tactic, you also alienate normal German people who want to have a historical discussion.
I guess I am trying to say there is a difference between anti-Nazism and Germanophobia.
The Nazis were the good guys and modern day Germany deserves to be destroyed.
Stop making this thread.

Good
If the Nazis had won, what sort of trends do you think we would've seen in academia? Would they have done away with analytic philosophy and most of what came out of postmodernism? Would Christianity have fared worse or better?

Can I get some advice from /his/ on the best ways to discredit Crash Course? Most of my friends are convinced it's completely legit and it gives them there retarded views of/on history. Pic related because they're too autistic to put Athens in the right place
>>3147954
Just show them the full history and if they cant handle taking the time to understand it they are retarded and probably shit friends.
>>3147954
I typically point to the value judgements. If they're actually educated in or legitimately interested in history, they'll know the folly of moral relativism and recognize the sneering judgment of European civilizations for political brownie points. Stuff like "oh this place used slaves, they sucked".
>>3147954
Do you have to? Do you want friends who may irritate you or do you want to shit on them and thus enlighten them.
Not every normalfag can take a beating.
Post your favorite pieces and talk about them if you wish.

Zaporozhian Cossacks to the Turkish Sultan!
O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are thou, that canst not slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil shits, and your army eats. Thou shalt not, thou son of a whore, make subjects of Christian sons; we have no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck thy mother.
Thou Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia,Podolianthief,catamiteof Tartary, hangman ofKamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw thine own mother!
So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!
It's just a beksinski but I can't help but like them

Is there any historical legitimacy to West Papua's claims for independence? Why was the territory never transferred to Papua New Guinea instead?
>>3147701
Why should it be?
>>3147701
The Papau island was split between the Netherlands, Germany and Britain in the 1890's and the Netherlands made their part part of the Dutch East Indies (modern day Indonesia) iirc. The area is fairly mixed between Papauans and Indonesians now I believe.

>>3147718
This.
Only one nation has rightful claim over West Papua. As well as the east.
