Why is Pinochet more famous than Franco?
Franco was more successful. He was a general who actually fought in a war, Spain became industrialized and modern under his rule, and he managed to hang onto power until he died.
Is it because Franco lost style points for using firing squads instead of helicopters?

Probably because the chileam cup was more coveraged than the Spanish Civil War (there is a 37 years gap between each one).

Franco was ostracized by the West for some time. Pinochet was a CIA puppet with full foreign support.

A town in Italy with a population of less than 1000 was once home to Jesus Christ's circumcised prepuce. It got stolen in 1983 along with the container holding the relic, nobody knows who stole it but some argue it's at some lab.
What are the chances of making a clone using Jesus's only surviving tissue in the world?

Not good.
Even if it was His foreskin (highly unlikely), the resulting clone wouldn't be Jesus, just some guy. What made him the Son of God was the fact that God resided within Him. You can't just clone that.

>implying god exists
You have to worry about DNA contamination as well as degredation. So probably unlikely to get a 100% genetic clone of the meme tier schizophrenic
>>
>>3056668
>implying that god doesn't exist
we also aren't quite able to fully clone humans yet, especially with ancient tissue.
That's not even getting into the shitstorm that would (rightfully) be raised.

Did Ancient Greece get everything they knew from ancient Egypt? Even if they did, would ancient Egyptian culture even qualify as Black or was it European and Near Eastern like scientist and historians claim? It seems like Egyptians had more in common with Greeks than Sub-Saharan Africans.

Even though this is more /sci/ related I found it pretty interesting.
http://www.history.com/news/julius-caesar-suffered-from-strokes-not-epilepsy-new-study-says
According to neurologists backtracking on his symptoms and family history, Caesar may not have had epileptic seizures but actually suffered from a mini strokes a.k.a transient ischemic attacks.
I find the neurologists statements questionable though because strokes can be a cause of epilepsy later in life.

That explanation has the same problems as any attempt to diagnose the illness of a patient that's not sitting right in front of a doctor. It's just speculation and there's absolutely no way to tell if it's correct or not.

Its only a matter of time before ayy lmao's are confirmed to be a huge actor in our creation. But honestly what difference would it make? So what if humanoids were fucking around with the dinosaurs and doing experiments on shit?
At most it was btfo out of religion for good
At least we add it the history books and it looses its wonder in a decade.

>Guadaloupe Woman: Miocene
That was the date of the rock near the skeleton, not the skeleton itself. The miocence dating was probably an attempt at a hoax. Creationists just keep lying about that because they think it proves some kind of point.
>Calaveras Man: Pliocene
This was a hoax.
>Kanapoi Elbow: 4.15 mya (Pliocene)
This was also a hoax.
>Paluxy Man: Mesozoic (most likely Jurassic)
Yet another hoax.
>Tiwanaku: 12,000 BC (Late Pleistocene)
Not a hoax, but you got the date completely wrong.
>Klerksdorp Spheres: 3 bya (Precambrian)
There are natural concretions, so they have nothing to do with human evolutionary history.
It's almost like this is bad bait.

The Ottomans WERE the Turks!
That's why The Ottoman Empire was also known as the Turkish empire!

because the modern Turkish state is not the Ottoman empire there two wholly separate entities. The only thing they share is a dominant ethnicity and language

But in reality, ever since the late 14 hundreds, the Ottoman empire became more an Empire of Muslim Greeks and Serbs (or Bosniaks as they now call themselves) than of the Turks, since almost all high officials were either Greeks or Serbs.

Ever imagined a possible scenario where Napoleon btfo the turks and actually controlled the entire mainland Europe?
In 1805, Napoleon asserted that if he had:
been able to take Acre [in 1799], I would have put on a turban, I would have made my soldiers wear big Turkish trousers, and I would have exposed them to battle only in case of extreme necessity. I would have made them into a Sacred Battalion--my Immortals. I would have finished the war against the Turks with Arabic, Greek, and Armenian troops. Instead of a battle in Moravia, I would have won a Battle of Issus, I would have made myself emperor of the East, and I would have returned to Paris by way of Constantinople.

Expedition to Acre was a complete failure and Napoleon sacrificed many good men because of it. Then he ran away from Orient like a bitch and abandoned his army which was destroyed afterwards.
He was simply obsessed with emulating Alexander in every possible way but he had just enough brain to distinguish dream from reality. In reality he aided the Ottomans against Russia.
>>
>>3053821
>he aided the Ottomans against Russia.
He tried to abuse the tensions between the two, but the Russians basically btfo the Ottomans every chance.
When you think about it a full scale Otto/French alliance would wreck both Russia and Britain and change the world.

He had sent French officers to train the Ottoman army that fought against Russians and Serbian rebels at the time.
>When you think about it a full scale Otto/French alliance would wreck both Russia and Britain
Not really. The Ottomans were a dying empire plagued by unrests and rebelions. Napoleon would gain little from it.
