No, he's a Muslim convert with a shaky grasp of history whose grammar and spelling skills are kept in a cruet set, where, whenever they are required to be used, they are rapidly shaken up and down, and scattered liberally into his p.c. .

See, Charly Farly don't need no 'new fangled his story Zionist oppressor controlled media outlet Christian NeoCon Liberal propaganda' (apologies for spelling it correctly, but it's an old habit I can't get out of) to keep him informed- he has the Koran, and Allah fighting in his corner.

This enables him to squeeze all time periods together, from Sumeria and Assyria, to early mediaeval Arabia and 20th Century Germany, to show that Saudi Arabia is a truly benevolent country and more liberal than the Arab eating Zionist murderers of Occupied Palaestine and Al Quds, because the Saudis have provided some Bedouin with Foxtel and a mobile 'phone.

It also enables him to do without burdensome things such as links, quotes, or pictures, or indeed, any kind of facts at all.

Boris you are wrong. Nomad where apart of Sumeria as sheep and goat herder have to travel to new grazeing places based on the season and supply of grass after the sheep and goat ate grass which meanth they have to move with they herd which meant they where Nomad.
Stop takeing dope as it cloud your mind.

I snipped all the crazy ranting that was utterly irrelevant to the subject.

Here's an idea, Charles.. P-R-O-V-E an argument. I'll start with a basic history lesson for you:

http://www.gold-eagle.com/editorials_01/mbutler121401pv.html

"Around 2150 BC, eastern nomads called Gutians overran the Akkadian Empire and destroyed it.

Now, maybe in your bizarro universe, "destroyed" is synonymous with "living in peace," but here in reality, that is not the case. This is but ONE examples of nomadic peoples marching in and CONQUERING Mesopotamia, not "living in peace" with it. Since the Mesopatamians were certainly agrarians, your assertions that nomads and agrarians lived in peace in ancient Mesopotamia is utter BS. We also have the continued conflict with the Elamites as proof against your absurd claims, not to mention the conflicts with countless other nomadic peoples:

http://www.abacci.com/history/history.aspx?historyID=35

"In the deserts, which were growing more arid now, of Syria and Arabia, tribes of a dark white or brownish people, the Semitic tribes, were driving flocks of sheep and goats and asses from pasture to pasture. It was these Semitic shepherds and certain more negroid people from southern Persia, the Elamites, who were the first nomads to come into close contact with the early civilizations. They came as traders and as raiders. Finally there arose leaders among them with bolder imaginations, and they became conquerors."


Hell, even the Akkadians were semi-nomadic when they conquered Sumeria and Sargon established his empire.

Doesn't that mean libertarianism equates to the end of civilisation?

According to Fukuyama, indeed.

I was just asking if you were, because your typing has an interesting style, that's all.

[Kuciwalker]

He has a mental disorder IIRC (wrt his typing).

[MrFun]

I was not trying to troll -- I was wondering if he really does have a disability that hinders his typing skills.


Cause I didn't want to go ahead and make fun of his poor typing, only to make a jackass out of myself because he can't help it otherwise.

Yes.

Nomad and settle people arenot alway enemer on sight, China trade with the Nomard near then as they needed furs from then. Raiding doesnot count as raiding alway occour even between Nomards they raid each other. The Akkadian Empire conquest and destory other civ and culture also an they arenot inorent of doing the same thing. Isaac Asimov in one of his book on history state that the Histoyian that wonder where these Nomad that conquest people who live in town all suddern came from out of nowhere. The Nomad where there tradeing with those people and when those societry became weak and decrance they where conquested either by other town people or Nomad.
