Title: WHY WAS ASK MERKAVA LOCKED ?
Post by: Merkava on February 14, 2008, 02:12:31 AM
Is it because I'm an angry young black man?

Where is the freedom of speech? And you seriously expect us to vote JTF into Israel & the USA? JTF's censorship is stricter than that of Communist Russia ! Heck my Ask Merkava was clean cut - no heavy subjects so there was no reason to lock it.

The favouritism that some moderators show towards certain mambers is absurd.

Ahhhh but I have a plan. I'll leave JTF, make a big deal about it and then, I'll resurface ! I'll rise again. Just like Black Jesus and just like my home boy Makaveli. 

Then maybe I can get my wings too !  :D

I believe there should be free speech on the JTF forum, although I believe that the members must act with some tact and morals.  The only thing I would request is quotations to be placed around any usage of the words "P-lestinian", "West B-nk", "East Jersualem" or "Occupied Territories".... O0

Jesus was black?   ;)

I notice they claim he was black, but not that he was a [censored] or [censored]

I think it was probably because of the lewd references to your "tank."

Did you mean Niccolo Machiavelli who authored "The Prince"?  If you liked that book you will love Sun Tzu's "The Art of War".. O0

I read some of it once, Sun Tzu gives some good points.

Mastura and Dexter - they are both excellent books !

Machiavelli can get a bit heavy with historic details but the general  concepts are good. Not necessarily applicable in all circumstances. But I think the concept of "better to be feared than loved" would bring some real peace to our beloved Israel. Someone in the thread has a slogan "Peace through superior fire power" (or something along those lines) which is a reflection of Machiavelli's philosophy.

Art of War is a great book. cleverly written and alot of its teachings can be applied in modern day business.

Yes you are right.  I'm reading "The Art of War" presently but also hear that T'ai Kung's "Six Secret Teachings" is also a masterpiece.... ;)
