This reminds me of that old story from the cold war, yep. You see we had NASA eggheads develop some fancy schmancy, cockamamie, too cool for school pen that could draw in zero gravity, because without gravity a regular old pen just won't work right.
Yep, we spent millions of dollars developing that thing, and the eggheads came through with an all singing all dancing pen that could write upside down, in space, underwater and even on the surface of the sun, yep.
The Russians *sip*, they just took a fifty cent pencil, you hear?

I am suddenly reminded of a BBQ i went to a few weeks ago where i almost got into a fight with some old farts who accused me of being a Nazi because i contradicted their belief that Israel from 70 AD to 1948 was completely uninhabited besides 'a few old British forts'

This includes Jordan, Lebanon and Syria, they honestly think all those places were uninhabited for 2000 years. One also didn't understand why all the Iranians on TV were white because he thought Iran was in Africa. It really do be like that.

Israel proper was mostly uninhabited for most of its recent history, surveys by the British when they took over described it as desert scrub and swamps. The landlords living in Cairo or Beirut were happy to sell what they saw as worthless land the Fedayeen refused to farm to refugees fleeing pogroms, which is why the Shaw Commission report described 90% of the land that Jews had bought in the Mandate in 1929, in addition to the inter-generational Jewish settlements in Gush Ezion, Jerusalem and Hebron.

>Here, genome-wide analysis of seven Jewish groups (Iranian, Iraqi, Syrian, Italian, Turkish, Greek, and Ashkenazi) and comparison with non-Jewish groups demonstrated distinctive Jewish population clusters, each with shared Middle Eastern ancestry, proximity to contemporary Middle Eastern populations, and variable degrees of European and North African admixture. Two major groups were identified by principal component, phylogenetic, and identity by descent (IBD) analysis: Middle Eastern Jews and European/Syrian Jews. The IBD segment sharing and the proximity of European Jews to each other and to southern European populations suggested similar origins for European Jewry and refuted large-scale genetic contributions of Central and Eastern European and Slavic populations to the formation of Ashkenazi Jewry.

Besides Italian the majority group of Israel's population considers those at best second class citizens and often considers them barely one step above Beta Israel. You are deliberately cherry picking non European descendent settler populations who have had a contiguous Jewish habitation since the Roman times except Italian Jews who had a significant pre temple destruction population. I am talking about Polish, Russian ect Jews and you damn well know it.

Please don't misunderstand me, i don't actually care and even if it was straight up White European Christian colonialism i'd be OK with it. It isn't my problem and after WW2 they had to go somewhere, might as be a place where i don't really like the natives.

>>65340357
Correct on all three statements.

As mentioned above i'm OK with Israel, my only real complaint is their 'traditional' types need to get hit with a copy of the Kebra Nagast until they stop mistreating Beta Israel because Ethiopian Jews are about 3000 years more traditional than they are.

Presupposes that the land belonged to the seller in the first place, as the most contested place in human history there is no end to the 'it was stolen' nonsense, that literally goes back to before known human history. Since that is a pointless endeavor i figure after a dozen or so generations whoever lives there lives there, otherwise it is a unending cycle of bullshit.

The Kebra Nagast is actually three books jammed together out of order, if you take the oldest third as a separate work (which it is) it has no fundamental conflict with the Hebrew Bible and it's age is co-existent. They are not in opposition but instead supplement each other.

>While I agree with your condemnation, I can't help but notice it seems its mostly in service of your theologically motivated worldview. Being more "traditional" means nothing.

"traditional' is a misunderstood word in this case since there have been multiple reforms over the millennia, todays 'traditional' or 'conservative' Jews would be seen as lunatics a couple thousand years ago, someone would have probably called the Cops. A better word is 'archaic' i suppose, Beta Israel's traditions are far older than mainstream Jewish practice is i guess what i meant.

>theologically motivated
This i will admit. If i were to be a practicing monotheist i'd be a non Trinitarian who rejects Nikea, Arianism in all but name so i'd technically be a late stage post Messianic Jew. Into the camp with me.

A distinction without any significance - presumably the people who owned the title deeds the Ottomans, and later British, saw as legitimate accepted money for ownership of that land and subsequently failed to challenge its development after its acquisition.
>The Kebra Nagast is actually three books jammed together out of order, if you take the oldest third as a separate work (which it is) it has no fundamental conflict with the Hebrew Bible and it's age is co-existent. They are not in opposition but instead supplement each other.

Agreed. It's like the Dead Sea Scrolls - religions change as people and societies do.

Make sure to read a few books explaining it, it is important to separate the parts that are Arab fairy tales, 12th century politicking and the actual ancient stuff.

Basically: Solomon marries Sheba, sends her home with all the second sons of the Priests and Administrators to create Israel 2.0 (1.0 was in north eastern Saudi Arabia btw, show me where the mines in modern Israel are hmm?) then his son Menelik I shows up and takes the Ark. Solomon (and God) knew Babylon was about to destroy them so Beta Israel was an insurance policy.

>>65340569
Not actually a follower of Christ except maybe in a secular way. Also non Trinitarians don't think Christ was the son of God, just a spokesman like Moses or how Islam views Mohammad.

Here is a hot take for you: All the Christians Mohammad would have met would have been non Trinitarians and the Muslim conquests swept all the areas where they still had a presence. Since that early form of Christianity was almost identical to Islam besides Mohammad as a second prophet and Islam being shall we say 'proactive' in converting people they are just continuations. By oppressing non Trinitarians a backlash against was inevitable.

Mohammad was the non Trinitarian Christian version of David Koresh and Muslim are just really pissed off Arianists who stopped turning the other cheek.

Almost all forms of government require infringing on individual rights as necessary and legitimate in certain circumstances.
I'd say any government that views the concepts of private possessions or ownership as optional would be as illegitimate as a tyrannical one that decides to proscribe its political enemies, because regardless of whether you're confiscating land or heads, the outcome is still people being destroyed. If Israeli courts repeatedly denying certain Palestinian land claims is wrong, then expecting Israelis to accept an invasion in 1948, give up their land, and subsequently be destroyed would also have been an injustice.
>Not actually a follower of Christ except maybe in a secular way. Also non Trinitarians don't think Christ was the son of God, just a spokesman like Moses or how Islam views Mohammad.
Seems a lot more syncretic than the Hellenistic abomination
>Here is a hot take for you:
I strongly disagree with your definition of a 'continuation' but its true that in certain eras of Muslim rule Jews and Christians were viewed differently than everyone else.
>Mohammad was the non Trinitarian Christian version of David Koresh and Muslim are just really pissed off Arianists who stopped turning the other cheek.
That's a spicy take, if by "turning the other cheek" you mean "not forcibly converting people after conquering them and subjecting them to religious, legal and political disenfranchisement."

That is silly, 2000 year old land claims enforced by colonial governments are bound to cause conflict and cannot be taken seriously. Or do you wish to justify an Egyptian/Canaanite claim to Israel as their settlement of the area predates the Jews? Ridiculous ancestral claims and conflicts justified by millennia old superstation are pretty much how the Jew's problems started in the first place, to continue that is moronic.

>Seems a lot more syncretic than the Hellenistic abomination
Please define 'Hellenistic abomination' as i am confused, almost the entirety of Western civilization is based on the Greeks. Early Christianity was based on many concepts, especially since messianic Jewish thought was (is?) somewhat vague as to what happens after the guy shows up. The early days of the Hebrew/Roman merger was a very confusing but free spirited time in terms of religion and philosophy, no wonder when the Romans combined their brutality and organizational skills with the intolerance of monotheism more open minded concepts like Gnosticism were crushed.

>"not forcibly converting people after conquering them and subjecting them to religious, legal and political disenfranchisement."

Correct, Arians and like minded folks inherited the Jewish tendency to avoid proselytization (despite not needed to for ethic exclusionary reasons) and simply lead by example, this is why they lost out to Rome not to mention their general aversion to the use of force*. Islam removed that and like most religions when they change doctrines they enforced the change zealously.

*Yes yes, Alaric I was an Arian and wasn't adverse to force including that little sacking of Rome episode. No one ever said he was a GOOD Arian when it came to that.

Which Arab landlords were accepting millennia old land claims? This is your strawman, which I dismissed at the very beginning of the discussion by referencing the Shaw Commissions' findings - which were based on who held title deeds to those tracts of land and not theology.
You can go read Abraham Granovsky's Land Policy in Palestine, (New York: Bloch Publishing Company) 1940, pp. 3, 17ff.
You don't get to start a war just because someone bought your old apartment and you want it back, and you definitely don't hold a claim to the land after losing it in war - unless you wish to justify East Prussia returning to Germany or South Tyrol returning to Austria.
>Please define 'Hellenistic abomination'

>*Yes yes, Alaric I was an Arian and wasn't adverse to force including that little sacking of Rome episode. No one ever said he was a GOOD Arian when it came to that.
It is tragic that pacifistic cultures were often swallowed by aggressive ones, I just disagree that conquering and forced conversion is what occurs when one stops "turning the other cheek." You're creating a false choice.

Almost the entire 'Arab renaissance' was based on translating old Greek texts. Also that democracy thingy.

>Which Arab landlords were accepting millennia old land claims?
I was referring to the Ottoman Empire/UK claiming ownership of the land at all. Every land claim and those based on transferal off those claims are based on violent acts of seizure that no modern government would respect as legitimate, especially if based on removal of inhabitants who have lived on that land for periods of time predating the existence of those states.

We are talking about people who are in some cases direct linear descendants of the biblical Jews whom the Jewish settlers claim decent from as justification for the seizure. It would be like Elizabeth Warren using her alleged 1/16th native ancestry to seize part of a Indian reservation. She may actually have that ancestry but everyone knows it is a bullshit justification.

>I meant Trinitarian dogma
Agreed although i'd use some anti Papist slur.

>This is an interesting topic, are you aware of any historians or theologians who've discussed this in their work?
I generally reference the entire history of Christianity post Nikea.

>I just disagree that conquering and forced conversion is what occurs when one stops "turning the other cheek." You're creating a false choice.

I am sorry if i gave that impression, i didn't mean to. I was just referring to the rapid switch of the mostly pacifist Arian's (i use that as a general term for non trinitarians and gnostic types in this context) to very much non pacifist Islam. Self defense is an inherent human right, aggressive action is not justified unless it is a unmistakable moral imperative for defense of the species as a whole; examples would include The Lord's Resistance Army, the Aztecs and Pol Pot.

I hate this bullshit because by that logic at a surface level even many Japanese and South Americans can be considered "white". It's not like "Caucasian" is any better because we don't come from the fucking Caucasus, but "white" as an ethnic descriptor isn't just about how pale one is. And being Asian isn't about having slanted eyes, because epicanthal folds are common in South America too.
It's a funny occurrence when Arabs or Persians look really white but it's not the norm for their region and it's a result of uncommon features lining up, not a justification for attributing a descriptor for European heritage to non-European peoples. Haaland looks like an abino black dude, doesn't mean all Norwegians are black.
If anything being concerned with integrating more ethnic groups into the "white" category seems to be a tacit admission of feeling that white heritage is somehow superior. Not to get too woke here, but being embarrassed of Persian heritage on the Persians' behalf and trying to upgrade it to "white" is actually racist.

First this is not guidance, and most fpv drones don't have guidance they have stability control which is different, and secondly most cheap IMU can't track yaw properly (cause it's aligned with the gravity axis usually) and thus they do in fact rely on external sources to correct the drift, for old/cheap missiles that can indeed be the earth electromagnetic field. For long range missiles/drone they of course use more precise things like GNSS + TERCOM + star alignment and newer missiles have laser IMU that don't drift that much anyway..

Big Ben hD some weird shit in his life. Early on he ran with some racist dudes because they had cash and he was poor. He recanted a lot of this stuff in later years, about the time he became an ardent abolitionist
