Where did the officer/enlisted divide come from? It's ubiquitous among almost every culture, even the communist and revolutionaries had it. Is it just a remnant of aristocracy because I honestly can't see a valid reason to keep it.

I know there is a divided opinion and I know why there would be one.

The question I am asking is whether there has always been sufficient enough knowledge of his actions (or to you, his Jewishness) that could cause a divide in opinion.

Will give you some motivation knowing that you are working towards the "end" of it all.
Otherwise you may just read African kingdoms and tell us if it was WE WUZ tier or not.

Is Orientalism a real thing? And if so, how can one study the history of Eastern countries without engaging in it?

A "thing"?

most of IRL /his/torians become "muh-study-subject"aboo so its no rare thing to find books of asian cultures written with bulshitic bias.

Its really difficult to be truly neutral (not in pro nor in con) on your studies since if you start to hate your subject, you usually drop it and if you dont get too engaged to it you would usually just scrape the surface.

So Yes, orientalism is real specially among those people who have to face those cultures day by day. Funny thing, westaboos also exist

I am writing a paper over how the Kennedy administration handled the Cuban Missile Crisis. It's a historography paper so I'm writing about historians and critics' points of view of how well or poorly the Kennedy Admin. handled the situation. Right now I'm in a slump. Any help would be appreciated!

Kennedy lost.

Soviet victory for scaring him into removing missiles from Turkey.
>>
Kennedy displayed brilliance in using the "Compellence Theory" of International Relations. By threatening massive consequence for the placement of weapons on Cuba, Kennedy scared the Soviets into removing their warheads.

By bringing them back to a "red line", as it is known, Kennedy had successfully achieved his aims of preventing a strategical disaster for the US.

Why does /his/ never talk about arabian poetry and history? Arabian poetry is some of the most eloquent and based shit ive read, though it might not be relatable to you all as you all do not speak arabic.

All I remember from 1001 Nights is that Arabs consider black people to be monkeys; that sex with black people was considered bestiality; and that their wives always seemed to be drawn to the help.

To theists on /his/: it what ways do you justify or back up the idea that God or the deity you believe in has a will, a mind, opinions, and things of the like? This isn't intended to be an attack, I just want to hear your point of view. Thanks.

The wonderful thing about faith is that you don't need anything to back it up. A theist can prove God by shrugging his shoulders. This is why theists will be the death of wisdom in the world
