Re: Chattel Slavery: Egypt after the 7th century, Subsaharan Africa and after the Trans-Atlantic trade was shut down, the trans-saharan and red sea trade continued to ship Chattel slaves to the Middle East. Mauretania abolished it's Chattel Slavery system legally in 1981, but the practice continues to this day.
Everywhere, where humans established empires, they dehumanized and colonized. Claiming that somehow western Europeans specifically are inherently more prone to doing that.
Even the claim "since Jesus' birth" false. In the meantime, especially in the early years, there were larger empires than the "western European" ones.
God I hate this myth. The Eastern world had its fair share of absolute dehumanization, be it the extreme brutality in education systems (Pol Pot claimed to have been beaten senseless by teachers multiple times for minor infractions and he had seen this as normal), the Mongol Empire razing cities on a monthly basis or the countless bloody civil wars in Chinese history. Name me a culture and I will name you the ways in which they dehumanized others.
Do they include period prediction now?
Killing a well known swedish citizen would be political suicide. Murdering thousands of Palestinians isn't.
So, single tests of dispersing an inert material via special planes are proof of every single commercial plane leaving a trail of bioweapons?
Because that's what the Chemtrail conspiracy claims. Every contrail in the air is actually designed to kill you or make you infertile or dumb or clog your third eye.
Iran has 82 million inhabitants.
The amount of people willing to die for this regime is much much smaller. 16% are Azerí, 10% Kurds and 2% Balochi, all groups who would rather die than fight for the IRI. Not that this would stop the IRI from pressing 15 year olds into service, but there wouldn't be many volunteers.
