Do you believe he was Jack the Ripper?

Was Thomas E.A. Stowell killed because he revealed the truth?

Absolutely nothing.

But I had a question though: Why couldn't Israel just completely annex the territories occupied after invaded by neighboring Arab countries? That used to happen all the time, if you attack another nation and lose, the occupied lands are ceded. Has there been some international convention prohibiting this since the formation of Israel?
>>
>>1175036
Ever since WW2 annexing conquered land has been looked down upon, to put it lightly.

Apart from the border shifts immediately following the end of the war, the closest thing there's been to a full-on annexation in the postwar period has been the establishment of puppet states.

Take the big bad Soviets, for example. For all the shit they got for literally holding half of Europe hostage for half a century, they *only* went as far as creating puppet states in Eastern Europe rather than completely annexing them.

And then look at dedicated wars of conquest. Somalia in 1978 invaded Ethiopia with the intention of taking and annexing the Somali-majority region of Ogaden. The Soviets not only withdrew support for Somalia, but completely flipped sides, executed the largest strategic airlift effort in Soviet history, and supported Ethiopia as they completely slapped Somalia's shit.

Iraq was even worse. Saddam invades Kuwait and fully annexes the country, and then six months later the entire country is wrecked and the Iraqi army is annihilated.

Annexation is no longer tolerated by the international community, especially in cases where the people living in the occupied area are a distinctly different population than the occupying power.

>Christianity destroyed for us the whole harvest of ancient civilization, and later it also destroyed for us the whole harvest of Mohammedan civilization. The wonderful culture of the Moors in Spain, which was fundamentally nearer to us and appealed more to our senses and tastes than that of Rome and Greece, was trampled down (—I do not say by what sort of feet—) Why? Because it had to thank noble and manly instincts for its origin—because it said yes to life, even to the rare and refined luxuriousness of Moorish life!… The crusaders later made war on something before which it would have been more fitting for them to have grovelled in the dust—a civilization beside which even that of our nineteenth century seems very poor and very “senile.”—What they wanted, of course, was booty: the orient was rich…. Let us put aside our prejudices! The crusades were a higher form of piracy, nothing more! The German nobility, which is fundamentally a Viking nobility, was in its element there: the church knew only too well how the German nobility was to be won…. The German noble, always the “Swiss guard” of the church, always in the service of every bad instinct of the church—but well paid…. Consider the fact that it is precisely the aid of German swords and German blood and valour that has enabled the church to carry through its war to the death upon everything noble on earth! At this point a host of painful questions suggest themselves. The German nobility stands outside the history of the higher civilization: the reason is obvious…. Christianity, alcohol—the two great means of corruption.

Why do people say that Sub Saharan Africa never had civilizations, let alone advanced ones? Many had huge cities with cultivating learning centers, large populations, and a standing military. I'm not saying they're as advance as the ones in Europe and Asia but they're good regardless.

If the middle-east and North Africa were never Arabized/Islamized would it be a lot better than it is now? Would a Christian Middle East have flourished post 1600s the way Europe did?

I wouldn't bet on it.

Eastern Europe was also Christian, and they didn't do nearly as well.

It seems that whatever happened in Western Europe to propel them to greatness, it was a particularly unique phenomenon.

I'm personally betting on republics.

Can someone educate me on the British conquest of India please.

I've never heard of any large scale battles that took place.

Who are the British generals which took power? How did Britain do it so seemingly easily?

Thanks

Mughal and Maratha India had become a bunch of small princely states after all the fighting, which made it easy for Britain to divide and conquer.
>>
Someone feel free to correct me but I'm pretty sure it goes something along the lines of the British set up small factories and communities then worked with the rich Indian landowners to extend their will in a process that involved make the caste system much more rigid and closer to the modern interpretation in order to have a wider labor force kept down by culture. Something like that in a vague sense

>Dear Mr. Skarlakidis,
>Thank you for your email dated 31/1/2010. I believe I can be of assistance to your worthy project.
>For the last thirty-five years I have been working with Experimental Fracture Mechanics at the Physics of Strength of Materials Laboratory of the National University of Athens and I believe wherever there is no scientific explanation, there is a miracle.
>I have no reason to doubt the Munich Library manuscript dated to 1634 which gives an account of the miraculous manner of the rupture of the column as well as what ensued: that the Greek patriarch used this Fire to light his candle. I do not believe it is possible to doubt a miracle and especially where there are related accounts.
>By examining the fracture from the photographs, we could conclude that it is a result of combined pressure: a combination of electrical discharge (probably a strong lightning bolt) and a large seismic tremor. The electrical discharge, due to the high momentary temperature, embrittled the material in the column down the length of a narrow area (origin). The surface seismic wave put pressure on the column resulting in torsional oscillation (fatigue). This simultaneous pressure resulted in the fracture beginning at the base of the column and continuing upwards in a zigzag course (as it appears in the photograph the course of the fracture is not linear) along the length of the area made embrittled by the electrical discharge. If the above indeed occurred, in my opinion this simultaneous combined pressure of the column remains inexplicable. Therefore, one could speak only of a miracle.

I don't get what the it's saying?
That a unlikely coincidence is a miracle?

But that's stupid, because it's unlikely and not impossible. And from it's unlikeliness, that just means statistically it was going to happen eventually.
That's not a miracle at all. Am I missing something?
