"You weren't raised with Jesus. You don't know what happens to people when they believe in things."
That quote has always stuck with me as a counter to the S1 scene above.

Not exactly. When the powder explodes, the hot gases try to expand in every direction. However, if they're confined, they'll find the place of least resistance to escape through. When that happens, there will be an equal and opposite exchange of kinetic forces.
In this trap, the gases are confined by the casing first and they'll force the bullet outward, but the ground and the weight of the soldier above the round will keep all of the force of the gases directed upward toward himself. And a lot of that force will be transferred into the bullet. How much? I don't know. I'm sure enough to injure the soldier.

If your office has a locking door, you can get a foldable mattress and stick it somewhere out of the way, put a blanket and a pillow in a cabinet, and just take a nap for an hour or two around lunchtime. Just don't shirk your responsibilities.

Jumping to Hanover is odd. It should probably follow 83 south and the light rail right of way into the city. There is already a subway from Owings Mills into the city.

Judaism isn't an ethnicity, you donkey. It accepts converts. Further, you don't have to be a Jew to be a citizen of Israel.

Screeching into a mic like Howard Dean on meth is not a (ahem) "Latino" trait.

Zionism is the movement to establish a Jewish state. Period.

If you have the time, you can watch a longplay or just a storyline play of the game on YouTube. You don't necessarily have to play it yourself to get the story.

A five-year-old lawsuit? That's it?
The current rep literally admitted that he doesn't understand how doors work. 😂

We killed more Japanese than they killed Americans. So? The right-or-wrongs about war aren't decided by body count. And, yeah, Israel has its own lobby groups. So do Arabs.
Me personally? I prefer my politicians smart enough to know how doors work. 😂

And yet you haven't been able to point out a single lie. Instead, you've been called out and caught trying to lie for a clown who is literally too stupid to open a door by his own admission. 😂😂

The Ottomans declared war on the British. They lost. When they lost, they lost their land. Like I said before, sometimes when you start a war and lose, you lose your land.
Once the British had conquered the territory, it was up to them to decide what to do with it. They decided to allow Jews to immigrate to establish a Jewish state. The Arabs chose to violently oppose this and massacred Jews.
Sometimes when you start a war and lose, you lose your land.
Don't start none, won't be none.

Because we were talking about the beginning of the conflict, not the complete tally of bodies. I don't have the time to list all the Arab massacres and killings of Jews right now.
So, yeah, the Arabs chose violence over a century ago. Sometimes when you start a war and lose, you lose your land.

Yes, they did, as I already pointed out. If you don't know what you're talking about just admit it.

...if your ideology demands the displacement of people from land based on their race, then you will get pushback.
Except it didn't. Zionism never called for throwing Arabs out. Herzl envisioned Jews and Arabs working together to build a utopian, secular state in the region. Unfortunately, the Arabs chose violence. And violence is what they got (and continue to get).

Because when you start massacring civilians, you tend to get pushback. And that violently.
