| Re: Changing the International Law of War | October 29, 2009, 3:26PM | I believe the beauty of war is the culling of population. Imagine the mess we'd be in if the 65 million people who died in world war two had survived. Now that we're pushing kids out at 12, fuck man. That's like an extra few hundred million during 70 years.

You seem to always forget that what if in one of these wars, you're one of the civilians that gets killed? You wouldn't be so eager to have yourself 'culled' then would you now.

| Re: Changing the International Law of War | October 29, 2009, 3:36PM | No, I wouldn't be eager. No one wants to die. But if it happens it happens and I can't complain, literally, to you anyway. But if I do die a civilian in a war, you best cut your ears off for when you die, I'll make you hear all about it!

So we should stop looking for them? We should stop fighting international terrorism? We should withdraw from Iraq and Afghanistan and allow Iran to take them over?

I believe the beauty of war is the culling of population. So you've changed the topic from it being "smart" to have to murder half of the civilian population of a nation to be able to win, as opposed to... you know, not needing to and being able to be a competent general... to apparently the civilian casualties being desirable to reduce the population due to overpopulation? What evidence do you have that the logistical concerns wouldn't be met given the need? The same smarts that require the destruction of a large swathe of civilian non-combatants to acquire a military victory? I think that's likely.
While we're on the subject of afghans liking the boys. Read this, it is very interesting... and also funny in a very dark way.

| Re: Changing the International Law of War | November 2, 2009, 9:39AM | When did I say you have to murder half of the civilian population to win a war? All I've said was - do anything you can to win. If killing half the civilian population is going to get you a victory then do it. Haven't you played age of empires?

Wow. That article is fascinating lol. And also fits with my hypothesis about sexually oppressed societies exhibiting more extremes of human sexual behaviour, most notably sexual violence but other extremes certainly fit in as well.

Haven't you played age of empires? I have, often. But life isn't AoE. Do you have Aoe3 and the Asian Dynasties? If so... game!! I need fresh meat.
We've also over-sexualized the female breast. I always find that idea rather funny, women like their boobs and nipples being fondled as much as men like fondling them. They are sensitive things, and thus have as much erotic potential as say, the lips. But we don't complain about over-sexualising them via things like kissing, which isn't a fundamentally natural thing, it's just a learned behaviour.
How is that related to my post? For that matter, how is aversion to obesity a reflection of Western culture or in any way related to Afghans? I don't understand what you're getting at. Perhaps, that since boobies are hidden they are sexualised... which is a bit unrelated to the Afghan example.
