SJWs are planning to march all the way from Germany to Aleppo over the course of three and a half months: youtu.be/L2A3KidIhe8
How does frontlines work?, is there shift work?, so some soldiers can fall back and get some sleep and then swap back over?
Nolan Moore
>Assad staying, Brussels paying for it Is there anything on this damn earth Brussels doesn't want to pay for? I really hope "paying" means bribing the officials so all the reconstruction projects go to European companies.

That's not half of it, we also got her account suspended and made our own, tweeting shitposts.

>I would add, that a less corrupt government like China's would actually enforce anti-trust law. Nice try Zhang Wei
>Will the way to Aleppo be safe? >We are working with respective authorities to make the march safe for all the participants. Generally, within the EU, the march is not considered to endanger safety in any way. In regards to Turkey and Syria, we will be cooperating with local authorities to ensure the safest passage possible. We will also have medical coordinators walking with us to take care of urgent medical issues along the way.
Christ, this is the Children's Crusade all over again. Someone is about to get a whole mess of new sex slaves delivering themselves to their door.
Gavin Bennett
You shouldn't imagine frontlines as 24/7 fighting. Typically a soldiers spends less than 10% of his time in combat.
Don't know how things work in Syria specifically, but generally you don't keep soldiers on the frontline for too long to avoid stress.
Brandon Fisher
>Yes, thats because governments make the laws, and companies follow the law. If you make money by making the law, then thats corrupt. And no, this is not a cultural viewpoint. It actually is. If industry is controlled by individuals (market capitalism) than any money for law deals result in obvious favouritism. If industry is controlled by government however (state capitalism) than money for law deals become beneficial to the government. If that government, as a whole, is acting in the interests of it population (in order to promote stability and popular support), than money for laws seize to be bribes and become research grants for political policies. This is where second part of your statement shows your ignorance. >corrupt government When Chinese speak about corruption, they are not talking about governmental control of industries. They are talking about under the table deals between individuals, instead of deals above the table in the open based on productivity margins and opinion polls. >one party state It actually is in many ways better than two party state. States where multiple parties that focus on variety politics and form coalitions represent healthy democracy. Two party systems are horrible beyond all belief because of how they work in practice. Parties in two party system hold polarising opinions (because someone has to represent both sides of most issues) and government works by swinging pendulum back and forth between the two, where all political discourse inevitably descends into us vs them mentality. Due to dynamism of human societies this either results eventually in swing too hard in either direction(see US population behaviour, you have more and more hardliners advocating nazism/communism), or it results in reduction of the swing to a point where the differences between parties are mostly artificial (see US congress right now).

I wonder where they are posting from now, I heard like yesterday that their house was captured or something
Russia was introduced way too late and it wasn't strong enough. And I mentioned Russia - the eternal enemy they're expected to take a stand against. And most Americans don't even see them as a threat or an enemy - that is because of Bush tenure and Obama's reset tries. Barely any MSM shilling to paint them as the Big Bad, at least in ways that appeal to general populace.
Next on, if you manage to convince your nation that it's their enemy's fault that they don't have as much food as they'd want to, that their life condition is shit, they won't rebel. You need to control the information they're served and make sure to crack down on so-called "enemies" every now and then to spark some bitter hate.
What you're describing goes more in line with Brave New World way of management. While when I mention a "regime" or "dictatorship", I mean 1984.
Noah Murphy
Wait what the fuck? someone here called the airstrike on her house? lmfao
Joshua Morris
I'm just saying, how can you hang out here and not get the impression that many/most NGOs are a tool of US/EU foreign policy?
As full Sup Forums as it sounds, /sg/ redpilled me on NGOs.
Julian Sanders
>I wonder where they're posting from Implying the man posting doesn't live in the UK
Kayden Johnson
no, we just geolocated here and passed the information to the relevant people. No one here called for an airstrike. That would be just wrong.
Easton Ross
I have always thought that the Brave New World technique was the perfect, and maybe only realistic pathway for a lib dem to transition into 1984, that's why I used it as a basis.
Going straight for 1984 in a previously free society will simply generate too much pushback and culture shock that I believe it will doom itself. A long period of demoralization, combined with brainwashing the next generation (only slightly) ever closer to the main ideology is the best path.
Carson Walker
There's ngo's and ngos'. Transparency International is a quality ngo. The red cross is another example of a quality ngo. ngo's are alright as long as they are not partisan and don't have a hidden agenda.
Owen Hughes
man, some Turks and Syrians gonna be getting some fresh slaves and cannon fodder soon
Oh no it won't. You need a revolution. Fast, brutal changes laying the foundation at first while fighting the "common enemy" and then gradual changes to ensure the regime to last.
William Baker
The best use for them is like uh... I think Ghouta, or Aleppo, 2015.
Women and children set in cages all around ammo dumps and HQs. Airstrikes couldn't even touch them. I wonder why they stopped doing that.
Brody Ross
>that oboma interview
Kevin Wright
Ala Bolshevik Revolution Russia, you have in mind?
I guess that is also an idea. There is also historical proof that the technique works. I like to think that mine is more up to date and will cause less degradation to national assets once the revolution is over, tho.
Owen Fisher
didn't even know they did that. smart way to keep your ammo dumps safe from the West though, Russia on the other hand...
Cooper Johnson
I once met a Chinese guy who's was a corrupt police official. However the reason he was a corrupt apparently stemmed from the offical stats the communist party put out which stated that the specific percentages of corruption present in every department. So in departments with hardly any or no corruption at all people were forced to become corrupt to uphold the statistics. In these clean areas those who become corrupt are treated with respect by their coworkers because they are sacrificing themselves for the good of the team. And while these volunteers are still cracked down on by the party they exist as a means of giving the party insight into how corruption operates as well as allowing the party to penetrate the underworld.
Luke Hall
>a fucking red & white cross supporting a red cross lel Ofc you think the red cross is legit!
>More than 100 Nusra groups attacked their brothers in Jaish Al Islam and Failaq Al Sham. The attackers were shouting Allahu Akbar as if they had just liberated all of Syria. They stole the weapons and equipment and stepped on the wounded. >These are criminal gangs and they are weakening our front. Their leaders lust for power in a city that has only a few streets left standing. Beware god or your greed and treachery will destroy us all.
Voice change: >I wanna say that Al Nusra now are ruining the efforts of the other groups in Aleppo but inshallah they won't take over the city.
Voice change: >Our positions in Al Sha'ar and Al Sakhour had fallen and our fighters are looting property on their way out.
Imo this might be connected to the video posted yesterday showing militants jumping on some bodies in the back of a pickup truck claiming they were the bodies of SAA troops even though the guys in the video were talking about retaliating against those who infringe upon their rights or something like that. If someone has the link post it please.

Again, please don't go full Sup Forums. The TI indicators are a good measurement how the business works in what country, and when you actually do a lot of international buisness then you come to more or less the same conclusions as them.
NGO != automatically bad, so please don't get triggered.
Jace Harris
It can sound insane in principle, but in practice it's not that much different than undercover work anywhere else, just catering to those who would try to bribe officials instead of say those who would solicit prostitutes or buy drugs.
Ian Jenkins
>using meat shields against Russians good luck with that, but the human body is frail and won't do jackshit against a FAB-500
Matthew Richardson
Also,cant wait till they all get killed. They cant understand that there is a goddamn war over there,not a food fight.
Leo Lewis
Oh there's a food fight going on in Aleppo alright - and they're the food.
Xavier Parker
Those were alawite women actually captured in the Masaken Adra offensive before Russia came in. One of the most awful chapters in this war.

Studies say that soldiers in modern combat environments can stay 60 days in frontline combat before 98% of them will go clinically insane, the 2% that remains unaffected are psychopaths that revel in it (which actually explains why jihadists think beheading by knife is the best shit ever since they have no such things as frontline shifts).
Carter Taylor
Oh, it was not their own women, then. I guess that makes sense in retrospect.
Juan Reyes
Sorry, I only have this memed up version.
Julian Butler
They sound like the same Soros-esque BS NGO that I'm used to
>In January 2015 it was reported that Transparency International (TI) accepted $3 million from the German engineering multinational Siemens, which in 2008 paid one of the largest corporate corruption fines in history – $1.6 billion – for bribing government officials in numerous countries.
>“The whistleblower resolution was watered down by the US delegation,” a TI insider was quoted “TI USA is very corporate oriented, very inside the Beltway oriented.”
I think if you're gonna report on other people's corruption, you need to be not corrupt yourself

Well, then you got your opinion and I got mine, and lets leave it at that.
Jeremiah Moore
TI is solid but it's still partisan when needed. Welcome to post-information era. Enjoy your stay.
Jayden Howard
This. Bias permeates everything, and you will have to sift through it no matter what you read, no matter were you read it.
Even this very post.
Benjamin Kelly
Jihadis believe beheading by knife is cool because it is a part of sunnah, the acknowledged tradition of the pious Muslims of old. It doesn't necessarily has something to do with them going insane due to prolonged exposure to intense combat. Saudis and Iranians behead people too, and I don't think the executioners are psychopaths.
Nathan Baker
Problem is, business people are the main customer, and money knows no sides. So if their information is incorrect, people will just not give them credit anymore. Ask S&P or Moodies what happened after the Subprime crisis. It is easy to bullshit people, but it is hard to bullshit the market.
Asher Rogers
They -were- able to bs the market juuuust before the crash hit tho... or it would never have happened.
Also, S&P is still up and about to this day, so...
Jonathan Brooks
>Iranians behead people when did that happen?
Adam Ross
>Syria, we will be cooperating with local authorities >Assad please let us march in your country so that NATO can bomb you
Nathan White
When needed. When it pushes an agenda someone wants pushed. Corruption doesn't actually have a direct effect on markets the way rating agencies do.
Hudson Scott
Don't you guys do that? I know you stone and whip adulterers so I thought you might have the whole package as well.
Ayden Price
I agree back in the olden days, everyone did beheading it was the most logical way back then, we have evolved, but some retards want to keep that tradition like many other stupid traditions.
but what crimes need to be commited for that punishment?
Nolan Allen
Yes, they are, it is just that everybody (all big banks, asset managers etc) started to double check ratings again, back then we hired 4 new guys for the job on the spot. Before that you just took the rating for granted.
Ryan Stewart
iranians just hang people, they don't behead
Tyler King
Well, corruption has a lot to do wiht how you can do business, in a non corrupt state the rules are the same for everybody, in a corrupt state this depends on your connections and how willing you are to bribe. Most Businesses does not like this. Like you invest big time, keep to all the rules of the law and then you get fucked because you did not bribe the right people. That does not happen to you in something like Norway, but it will happen all the time in shit Nations.
Jace Powell
Moderates killing the more moderates. Perfect. They should all perish in the city.
Ryder Harris
Beheading by the sword is the civilized European way! Hanging is barbarian!
Brody Cook
That is true, but overstating or understating the extent of corruption is not instantly noticeable.
Tyler Campbell
I've just seen videos of irianians hanging gays and stuff, but never beheading.
No, no, is HONORABU Samurai tradition of DAI NIPPON!
Joseph Perry
Not really first time I've heard about beheading. Same about stoning. I've heard this myth about stoning on internet, even some Iranians say they heard of it back in 80`s or so, couldnt find a concrete evidence yet. But yes rapists and drug smugglers get executed by hanging, sometimes in public. There are discussions about reducing these sentences because it seems they don't prevent drug smuggling and giving us a bad rep in human rights. They are going to change these sentences by sending drug smugglers to gulags.
Cameron Perez
I don't know Tbh. But you need to understand that muslim fanatics don't behead people just because they're stuck with old traditions but rather because according to Sunni doctrine, by doing something the way the prophet did it, you show Allah how much you love his messenger and prove that you're willing to shape your life after his blessed example. When you see Muslims who shave their mustaches and keep the beard for example, know that they do this because it was reported that Mohammad did the same back in the day.
Joshua Peterson
>people were forced to become corrupt to uphold the statistics this is fucking brilliant I'm stealing this idea
Juan Hill
I understand, still odd since in one way okay they are doing what Muhammad did, BUT the reasons they are doing it are not the same.
They do it because, this person is gay, or this is a Christian, as far as im aware Muhammad didnt do that.
I understand if rapist, or murderer etc
but I guess you cant understand and be on the same level as religious fanatics.
Logan Walker
>Syrians are whiter than Argentina
Ryder Johnson
>we have evolved A very dangerous statement to make, my British friend. We have not evolved. Society has. some 500 (~12 generations) years in not enough to affect even minor change in genetic patterns, what keeps us from beheading each other is our laws, our culture, our moral compass, which comes not from inside, but from our modern society. And ISIS should be a cautionary tale to anyone who thinks otherwise.
Isaac Taylor
Kind of off topic but are there Chinese posters post on Sup Forums?
Hunter Nelson
Argentina is pretty white, desu. Just look at all this ivory.
Jackson Foster
maybe, mostly just user's who are there on vacation or business.
Jonathan Murphy
Beheading, either by sword, axe or guillotine was the main peacetime way of execution all over Europe and praised by most executioners for being quick and humane. Hanging was seen as a sever punishment for notorious offenders.
Nathaniel King
Well good to know that majoosi bro. I know Iran isn't a human rights heaven, but you guys are still not half as bad as Saudi Arabia. I remember there was a talk maybe some years ago about a girl who was going to be stoned in Iran but the court wouldn't let the thing pass or something, which while inhuman, is still something you definetly won't see in ksa where they seem to do a lot of this stuff on the spot.
Nathaniel Ross
We used to have a regular CH poster on /sg/.
Joseph Murphy
They have their own image boards, there is an occasional visitor, but they never have a Chinese flag.
