One caveat - all non-haredi Israelis (including all those pictured, presumably) serve in the Israeli defense forces. So they aren't really that far removed from the conflict, which more than likely exacerbates their fear and hatred of their "enemy."

You've taken the Sokolow quote about mutual charges out of context. The context at that point was that two drunk people had consensual sex (seemingly), and the male was charged after the fact because the woman was drunk. Not because she said no, or resisted, or was unconscious... Only because she was equally drunk as…

He did sing though, at the end.

He wrote the song and composed the music?

A high PFT score is one thing; lugging a heavy ass kit over obstacles and distance has a major strength component that is hard to overcome with simple fitness.

You're an idiot and so lazy that you can't even be bothered to think through the reasons for strict physical requirements for combat infantry.

It's in the context of the men's world cup tournament. I'm guessing that in the midst of the women's world cup tournament, commentators referring to the fantastic career of Abby Wambach need not constantly refer to her records as "women's all time"? Hopefully not, anyway. They are leaving out information that is clear…

She should have grabbed the water glass I'm sure was right there and smashed it into that cowboy's face. See how much he felt like grinning once he was missing a half dozen of the teeth in his dentures.

Hate that stupid rule. Never had anyone straight out accuse me of not being Jewish, though.

I'd love to see the safety manual that starts "In the event of a critical system failure..."

Is there an error here? 24 turning 25 on October 22, and 24 turning 25 on July 21... Makes the July 21st chick older, not younger, right? Unless she turns 25 on July 21st, 2015... In which case she's 23 now, not 24?

You won't find "statutory RAPE" in any of the actual statutes. Since the commenter referred to the legal definition of rape, I suppose he was saying that what was alleged to have occurred was not legally described as rape. As far as it goes, that's perfectly accurate. I can't read the minds of legislators, as they…

Statutory RAPE (or lowercase rape, too) is not the name of a crime in most jurisdictions in the U.S. or elsewhere. The only point he was making is that its actually called sexual assault. And, by the way, R Kelly was acquitted of sexual assault and all other charges related to the videotape by a jury in Chicago.

As he/she said, the legal definition would be sexual assault — not RAPE (statutory rape is not a term often used in legal contexts). On those and any other charges, R Kelly was actually acquitted by a jury in Chicago. So is he a rapist? Not in the eyes of the law.

That sounds like a good topic for a masters thesis! Go write it.

The editor of the paper that dumped him was also male, natch.

Just be honest - the outrage on a hot button topic drives hits. Hypocrisy is permitted, because there is no internal logic to the moral compass that ridicules skin bleaching but holds other types of body modification as sacred and beyond reproach.

Oh whatever. Can't be bothered. Include the word you're referring to next time, moron. "Sawter" is at least the pronunciation of the word. "See-ay-oh" is nothing, except evidently the product of a limited mind.

I don't know - some comment as to why? The bit that they were in adjacent communities doesn't necessarily make it clear that they weren't related. For the main hook for her whole effort, and the basis of her becoming a pilot, it's a little strange to give her actual connection to the original Amelia Earhart two (not…

Wait, so this whole thing, and no explanation of how she got the name Amelia Earhart??
