If only they appreciated the many gifts they had been given, maybe everything would have turned out nicer. A bunch of advanced philanthropists come to your land, build a bunch of modern day structures, and let you use them for free.

Why can't they just be fucking grateful? They should apologize to pic related

Why is black Americans European heritage so extensively downplayed?
202 posts and 17 images submitted.
>>
American race dynamics are all loads of fucked.
>>
the blacks themselves downplay it. they would rather name their kids after random african words then embrace their true heritage.
>>
because it's not as significant as people make it out to be. I think it was like 58% of Blacks have only 12.5% European ancestry (mostly barbaric Europeans like scotch-Irish) and the percentage of Europeaness goes down the higher the number of Blacks you are testing.

I just now realized that Israel is basically a LARPing state. Think about it.

>Revived a dead language and made it the official language
>Bases its flag, borders and currency on those of an ancient state and mythology. I mean fucking shekels for g-d's sake
>Even name their tanks and defense strategies after religious mythology (samson option etc.)

How can they get away with founding a state based on role playing as old testament Israelites.

That's nothing.

Consider how first gen Israelis literally changed their German/Slavic/Hungarian/Whatever surnames into Hebrew-sounding family names.

>>2776783
I guess what they said is that they basically changed *back* those surnames. Lots, maybe most, of the Jews changed their surnames at some point to make them sound more local.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moshe_Barazani

>Barazani was born in Baghdad to a Kurdish Jewish family from Iraqi Kurdistan. The family moved to Jerusalem when he was six.

>Barazani joined Lehi at an early age, following in the footsteps of his brother. He participated in numerous sabotage operations, laying mines to destroy British vehicles and taking part in railway sabotage.

>While awaiting execution in the Central Prison in Jerusalem's Russian Compound, he met Irgun fighter Meir Feinstein, who had also been sentenced to death. On April 21, 1947, shortly before their scheduled executions, they committed suicide with an improvised grenade which had been smuggled inside a hollowed-out orange.

They would rather kill themselves then let an Anglo kill them.

>Menachem Begin, leader of Irgun and later prime minister of Israel, was buried next to them on the Mount of Olives in accordance with his will.

The British were executing valuable Hebrew warriors. Moshe Barazani was a Kurdish Jew and a direct descendant from the first female Rabbi of all time. When people like him were martyred, not to mention the attempted slaughter of one of the most ancient Jewish communities of all time (Hebron) led to these militias. They blamed the British for not allowing them to respond. They decided to take it in their own hands. They would mutilate and torture British soldiers, even Jewish ones who were Zionists.

Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bait to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

Tripcodes are still pretty much anonymous

It makes sure nobody usurps your posts

You guys keep saying that Germans are evil or barbaric or whatever. I think it's different.

I think Germans are just very obedient and complacent. They do whatever they are told and whatever they are given, to the best of their abilities.

Consider the fact that Germany has never had a major civil war or successful revolution, apart from the parliamentary nonsense of 1919 that the average German didn't care about.

For Germans, rebelling against authority isn't a concept. When they get told to do something, they do it and they do it to the best of their abilities.

Like, when someone like Hitler tells them to go kill all the Jews, they all know it's a bad thing, but they do it because orders are orders and they intrinsically can't disobey orders. And they go over the top with it. Whereas countries like Russia when they sperg out at the Jews, they do it in isolated uncontrolled outbursts and pogroms. When Germans get a general order to kill the Jews, they organise this highly efficient and neat structure to doing it to maximise efficiency.

If Russia wanted to kill Jews, they'd just send some angry peasants and soldiers to do it. When Germany wants to kill Jews, they build a huge network of railways, build all these factories, create a huge beuracracy to manage it, autistically keep paperwork and documents for each minor thing.

After the war they get told that nationalism and racism is bad. They accept that and go over the top with it, shunning the flag, banning patriotism and flooding the country with foreigners.

They get told to march to war they don't want and know they'll lose, but they go and fight to the death in it anyway.

Whenever a tiny dispute arises, whether it's Denmark, France, Russia, Poland, the answer is always full fledged open war. There's no concept of middle ground for them, it's either all in or nothing.

"germany" WAS a civil war for most of history.

Tell a German speaker in the 1700s that Germany would be a country and they'd keel over laughing.

Who would fair better in combat. Mongol hordes or Roman Legions?
101 posts and 16 images submitted.

>>2774128
Well, Here's the thing. Hunnic Horse archers proved a match for the Late Roman Empire, but Rome did win that fight eventually. If we're talking peak Vs. peak, I think the empire under Trajan could have eventually beaten back the Mongols, though the Mongols would be indisputably the superior military force.
>>
>>2774128

Okay we have a "president" for this. The Parthians vs Crassus.

> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Carrhae
>>
>>2774128
really, it all depends on the location of the battle.

Romans typically stuck to tight formations of infantry/archers with cavalry to flank enemy armies and ballistas/onagers as artillery/support, which is most reliable in mixed terrain with only limited room for maneuvering.

The Mongols stuck to highly mobile warfare with horse archers and other mounted troops to run circles around soldiers who are on foot, which worked miracles for the mongols on flat terrain which was most of their empire, but the mongols were notoriously bad at fighting on unfavorable terrain, and avoided such battles that didn't favor soldiers on horseback.

Where the romans would shine though is siege warfare such as fortresses and cities, where historical mongol advantages can't be put to use, suffice to say the Mongols would never be able to siege cities like Constantinople.

Though if I had to say, the Mongols would be able to tear Roman legions apart in open field battles, but in turn Romans would hold their cities and win battles from behind walls and other terrain, winning city sieges and naval battles.
