Where do you think the middle east would be today if the CIA decided to back him instead of Hekmatyar and Bin Laden?
Better.

They USA did back him and the Northern Alliance over the Taliban you dumb shit
Afghanistan is not in the middle east
At the turn of the century, a whopping 45% percent of children in Vienna and Budapest were born to unmarried parents. This is higher than the illegitimacy rate in either Austria or Hungary today.
http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/3324-births
What caused this rampant illegitimacy? Did the church or stare care? How did prewar fascist leaders in these countries respond to these huge rates of unmarried pregnancy?

Is it true that conquistadors went around Mexico/Peru just raping/killing/pillaging anything they could find? What did Conquistadors do when they landed in their destination? Please no meme answers.
Pic unrelated, for the most part.
>Land ashore
>Pick a direction
>Blaze a trail

>Meet some weird brown people with no clothes

Were most of these interactions constructive or destructive? Trade? Dialogue? Directions? Rape? Looting? Torture?
>>1989943
It varied considerably, depending on how either side behaved. It could be all of the above you mentioned.
The Holy Roman Empire included hundreds of states over the course of hundreds of years.
What systems of government did they have? Did any states have really wacky political structures?
How did a society this large exist in pre-modern times? Was all law local, or could the Emperor tell all his citizens what to do? How were language and religion controlled by the Emperor?

Why is utilitarianism so controversial?
Because rape is immoral even if the population of Japan is dwindling.
>>1989324
Because nine out of ten people enjoy gang rape.
>>1989324
because utilitarianism is a form of collectivism, the ideological opposite of idividualism
Why wasn't Italy subjected to Allied division and occupation after WWII like Germany and Japan were?
Was there a deal struck with the Italian resistance that ensured control of their own county after the war between them and the British/US? Or did the Western allies just not see Italy as a worthwhile war prize?
Because Italy was an allied member after Sept. 1943.
>>1989090
Because Italy wasn't in a position to destabilize the region the way Japan or Germany were if left to their own devices.
Because Italy wasn't in danger of being captured by the russians.
Is he right, /his/?

If Phoenicians are arabs I guess Jews are too
that's why all those guys spoke arabic and left behind typically arab architecture and manuscripts. because they were arabs.
>>1988901
It's pretty much well-known that the original Arabs were Yemeni, who then moved north and went on to build many civilizations there. I wouldn't be surprised if at least the Phoenicians and the Carthaginians were descended from those Yemenis.
Even by looking at the Phoenician and the Old South Arabian script, there is a clear connection. So he's not completely wrong.
Why teutonic order, not germanic order?

dont forget how he cucked germany into an eternal guilt trip, their biggest import is Muslims and biggest export is Leopard 2's to Poland
When a guy posts Pepe the frog on twitter the bbc and guardian claim that it is 100 % proof of the conspiracy theory that Putin is hiding behind the white house curtains right that instant.
When the bbc and guardian and many other academia-media-publishing industrial complex organisations say that the UK should immediately import 20 million Muslims then you're called crazy if you say that maybe during the period of 1945 to 1989 the USSR has infiltrated western institutions in some form (not even a PARTICULAR form, just any form).
Let's talk about this.
>>1988746
Well, let's say USSR infiltrated some of American Universities. Why would agent do shit after the fall of USSR?
>>1988746
>industrial complex
You just threw that in there for no reason. Dumb frogposter.
>>1988761
It's not a literal infiltration by KGB sleeper cells. It's a corruption of the system.
And since the next generation's academics are educated by this generation's, it will continue spreading.
Hey /his/, fairly interested in the Vietnam War, is there any way to properly inform yourself about it?
Now I know Wikipedia or youtube videos aren't the most reliable source for that, is there any kind of book / other medias you'd recommend for someone who really wants to learn something about it?
>>1988706
It ain't me
>>1988706
Street Without Joy by Bernard Fall is a excellent overview of the situation in French Indochina and the early parts of US involvement. (Fall was killed by a landmine)
>>1988706
The issue with Vietnam media is navigating the anti-war rants and the gung-ho histories written with blinders
to the very negative realities of the war.
'First Kill' is a great documentary on the psychology of American soldiers.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0m573MxXXw
The BBC Battlefield Series (all of which is excellent) did a season on Vietnam that's also very good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQdFGr7NQ4o
'Battle of Long Tan' is a documentary about Australians in Vietnam that's very well done.

Why did the European powers never conquer Thailand or China?
Considering how utterly BTFO the Qing got by the Brits and French in the Opium Wars, it seems possible.
I've been told it was because they wouldn't let any of them be in control of fucking China, and they couldn't agree on how to share it.
>>1988102
same reason why the belgians became independent and not a part of france, why they didn't go to war against the ottomans, and siam was unmolested.
great powers stop shit getting done

This. Everyone wanted a piece of the pie so they just carved it up into spheres of influence.
