No, but we can agree on this

Not happening

poison the wells

Let the count deal with it. Or begin a war of attrition by limiting the amount of local food the invaders can live off and retreating to a series of castles and forts. A functional steppe army requires more calories to thrive because they must not only ensure that the men eat, but that their many horses do too. If the defenders all tighten their belts and endure some hunger, the horseniggers suffer tenfold. At some point, they will have to begin slaughtering horses for food thus eliminating their advantage in mobility and open warfare. Also, get local partisans to harass whatever supplies they receive.

>>3271032
That just means some die the first time, they test all future wells with one of their slaves/your peasants, and stick to rivers and streams in the future.

Plus, you know, earning you their eternal hatred.

You are arab if you are from the Arabian peninsula, but the term is too often used as a generalization of all the people from the islamic world.

>>3271209
There are Arabs in northern Africa and middle east.
This isn't really "muslims wear towels, sunglasses and beards and all live in middle east (whereverfuck that is, I don't care, USA USA USA)" tier

>>3270872
Th "original arabs" are from Arabia. Currently, "Arab"'refers to all populations that speak a form of Arabic which is pretty much all of MENA. Even in thes countries however, you have minority populations who reject the Arab identity such as Coptics in Egypt.

Qui

La France is ready
Guns aimed, hearts are heavy
With Austrians at the border already, Max is steady
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks sly and ready to list names,
but he couldn't find the courage
To call them out
Convention's ruined clout
He opens his mouth but the crowd shouts him down
He's blown it now
Blood of Danton chokes him now
The guards are out
His rule's over blam!

The athenians in their democracy had sortition instead of elections. What that meant is that citizens could get selected by lottery to serve on a council for a short amount of time, instead of elections. And in addition to sortition, the citizenry had the vote on anything the councils/leaders proposed. So the athenian democracy was a combination lottery and direct democracy.

The reason for why there were no elections, was that the rich and powerful would always dominate elections and thus elected democracies are not democracies at all, but are rather aristocracies. American founding fathers BTFO because its obvious now the greeks were right.

>>3270157
Wait, are you implying that it is possible for a leader to be democratically elected by votes?
I thought that was just a fairy tail because elected officials are always just talking heads while the real rulers continue to rule regardless of the actor in the president chair

>>3270683
Are you talking about ((Them))?

Cause the fleet was led by a French admiral.

Nelsons fleet was able to pierce the line and was able to bring more full broadsides (more weight of shot) than the french

>>3269826
How was the British fleet able to pierce the line of the French fleet?

It was too wordy relative to the amount of actual content.

It's probably the weakest HH, by far, but when he's done so many amazing ones I'm not going to complain. Hopefully we get another Rome one down the line that's better, maybe something during the Imperial era.

I've listened to the Achaemenid episodes and I liked them.
How do the others compare? Any recommendations?

go to around 10:15 if curious, talks about Yugo cultures (Serbs, croats and Muslims of Bosnia), and going around the nation to look at how beautiful it all is and at 10:52 breaks out in an extremely popular pro-Yugo song.

Looks kinda like propaganda looking back but it's more nostalgic.

"Irish were not considered white"
A surprising majority of people believe this even though it's easily refutable.

>>3269252
Maybe, but the whole white race thing is an anglo meme in general, Slavs for example were definitely not seen as white by the self-proclaimed white nationalists, yet a look at /pol/ today would tell you otherwise, I think the whole concept of white is just flexible to include whatever people you need to align with your cause.
Race is mostly a social construct, biological differences aren't though

>>3269252
>easily refutable
It would be if there was socially standard definition of what it means to be "white".

>What can you tell me Night of the Long Knives?
Reactionaries pushed Hitler into purging the revolutionary members of his party, before they could be purged themselves.

Dramatic effect, it's a story.

>The Jews did something wrong
That can't be. God must just be anti-Semitic. What a cunt

>>3268615
It kind of gave me the impression that the Semites are just mindless worshippers that can't be without some sort of deity to justify their pitiful existence for even forty days.

>It gives a much deeper thought and meaning to the text
how
it's a fucking foreign word that means word
how does not translating it gives it a deeper meaning?

>>3268538
So you basically refuse translating it and pretend it has a different meaning? Cool.

It doesn't mean "word".
>Despite the conventional translation as "word", it is not used for a word in the grammatical sense; instead, the term lexis (λέξις) was used.
>Greek word meaning "ground", "plea", "opinion", "expectation", "word", "speech", "account", "reason", "proportion", "discourse",
>but it became a technical term in philosophy beginning with Heraclitus (c. 535–475 BC) who used the term for a principle of order and knowledge.
^thats the important part. It doesn't mean word in this context, it had been used for more for over 500 years before it was written in the gospel.
>Logos is the logic behind an argument. Logos tries to persuade an audience using logical arguments and supportive evidence.
>Logos is a persuasive technique often used in writing and rhetoric.
>Ancient Greek philosophers used the term in different ways. The sophists used the term to mean discourse, and Aristotle applied the term to refer to "reasoned discourse"or "the argument" in the field of rhetoric.
>The Stoic philosophers identified the term with the divine animating principle pervading the Universe.
>Under Hellenistic Judaism, Philo (c. 20 BC – 50 AD) adopted the term into Jewish philosophy.
> The Gospel of John identifies the Logos, through which all things are made, as divine (theos),
>and further identifies Jesus Christ as the incarnate Logos
Now apologe for being so wrong and get back to the question.
Also what other translation problems do you know about in the Bible?

>>3268443
Indeed meme man they were so not socialist they purged actual socialist and populists from the party

>>3268443
They were pre-marxist socialist

>>3268498
Well, classic socialist sounds better, since they were created after Marxism. But either way, that's wrong. They were not socialist, at all. Even from the beginning they were far-right populists, who co-opted certain terminology and talking points from socialist and worker movements to appeal to the working classes and nationalistic social democrats.
