Why Bertie's Teapot?

.

"A later conviction for publicly lecturing against inviting the United States to enter the war on the United Kingdom's side resulted in six months' imprisonment in Brixton Prison (see Bertrand Russell's political views) in 1918. He later said of his imprisonment:"
I found prison in many ways quite agreeable. I had no engagements, no difficult decisions to make, no fear of callers, no interruptions to my work. I read enormously; I wrote a book, "Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy"... and began the work for "The Analysis of Mind". I was rather interested in my fellow-prisoners, who seemed to me in no way morally inferior to the rest of the population, though they were on the whole slightly below the usual level of intelligence as was shown by their having been caught.

Strife is Lucrative


24-4-17 Palestinian leaders not Israel, have eschewed a Palestinian state | AIJAC > .
"This video is no longer available because the YouTube account associated with this video has been terminated." AIJAC has been terminated?! Since the channel was legitimate, this must be attributable to a concerted attack by Islamist trolls. It appears that Islamist war against ALL other religions is underway. Western nations, in their insistence on
naïve kindness, have allowed the enemy to lie their way into our societies. We will regret the naïveté of our liberal democratic governments and the folly of tolerating "weakist" reverse-discrimination.

Why is Islamism a problem?

The Arab world: Area = 13,132,327 km2 (= 630 times the area of Israel)
                              Population = 456,520,777
Israel: Area = 22,072 or 20,770 km2; 
            Population = estimated at 9,883,520 (2024) 
            [73% Jews; 21% Arabs; 6% others]

456,520,777 vs 9,883,520. Which is the underdog?

As of 2023, the world's core Jewish population (those identifying as Jews above all else) was estimated at 15.7 million, which is approximately 0.2% of the 8 billion worldwide population.

Adherents of Islam constitute the world's second largest religious group. A projection by the PEW suggests that Muslims numbered approximately 1.9 billion followers in 2020.

15,7 million Jews vs 1.9 billion Muslims. Which is the underdog?

The only actual solution involving a distinct state for Arabs who call themselves Palestinians (Gaza plus West Bank), would be to relocate the "Palestinians" to a newly independent state somewhere within vast Arab lands. The difficulty, of course, is that Arab leaders do not want these troublesome people.
