[quote]Common misconception in the West. The middle east is VERY homogeneous in terms of religion/ideology and it hasn't precisely been a hotbed of peace and unity. And before we blame ALLLLLLL of that on ebul Islam, Ireland wasn't much different back in the IRA glory days. [/quote]
Both of those are wrong. Islam has Sunnis and Shiites and there are weird cults of it too (weirder than the normal variant, that is) and Ireland had Catholicism and Protestancy.

[quote]Everyone being the same (religion, political party, pick your physical or ideological denomination of choice) hasn't brought lasting peace in like any of the places it's happened. If anything it seems to make things worse. It's a total red herring.[/quote] 
I do agree there however. The left tries to remove "barriers" i.e. language, religion, etc. and make it all one yucky mixed up mongrelized thing like the USSR that tried to standardize Russian, kill off/end religion but you know that didn't really work out well because all these differences are simply natural. No two people are ever alike and that is something that should be celebrated, not destroyed like how neo-marxists are trying to do. I mean, isn't diversity strength? All of these "barriers" are what makes us human, and once you get rid of all of these items you're more or less a non-existent husk with no purpose that I'll use for fertilizer like in waterworld. 

[quote]The closest thing we've found to a panacea for violence, is democracy. Western democracies don't fight each other, like, ever, in the history of ever. I mean we bomb the living shit out of other countries, all day erry day, but if we just AMERICAIZED everybody else, that would totally stop happening right? So the answer to world peace is TOTAL CONQUEST. YOU MUST SURRENDER UNCONDITIONALLY OR THE BOMBS WILL CONTINUE WITHOUT END. IT'S FOR PEACE.[/quote]
