"Is Having a Loving Family an Unfair Advantage?" - Joe Gelonesi, ABC, 1MAY2015

>Plato famously wanted to abolish the family and put children into care of the state. Some still think the traditional family has a lot to answer for, but some plausible arguments remain in favour of it. Joe Gelonesi meets a philosopher with a rescue plan very much in tune with the times.

>So, what to do?

>According to Swift, from a purely instrumental position the answer is straightforward.

>‘One way philosophers might think about solving the social justice problem would be by simply abolishing the family. If the family is this source of unfairness in society then it looks plausible to think that if we abolished the family there would be a more level playing field.’

>It’s not the first time a philosopher has thought about such a drastic solution. Two thousand four hundred years ago another sage reasoned that the care of children should be undertaken by the state.

🚨🇮🇳🇵🇰How Pakistan aims to SURVIVE WAR with India?

Pakistan is the ONLY conuntry with and explicitly declared nuclear doctrine that includes the possible use of tactical nuclear weapons on its own territory.

🪖 This is part of its "Full Spectrum Deterrence" policy, designed to counter India's conventional military superiority (1.46 vs 654K troops).

☢️ Doctrine of First Use & Tactical Nukes - Unlike most nuclear-armed states (excpet possibly North Korea), Pakistan reserves the right to use nuclear weapons first - even on its territory.

For example, India has a "no first use" policy, committing not to be the first to use nuclear weapons in a conflict.

🇨🇳🛡 Chinese umbrella

Pakistan’s nuclear security is reinforced by its strategic partnership with China, which has provided substantial support for its nuclear weapons and civil nuclear energy programmes since the 1970s, including in potential wartime scenarios.

🚀 China has long supplied Pakistan with nuclear technology and missile systems, strengthening its deterrence against India. In the event of a Pakistan-India conflict, China is likely to offer diplomatic support and military aid to Pakistan, although direct intervention would be unlikely.

✏️ The 2024 joint statement reaffirmed their mutual defence of core interests, with China committing to defend Pakistan’s core interests, ensuring the country’s stability and safeguarding investments such as the CPEC.

"Carbon dating of the Isaiah Scroll is as early as 335 B.C., according to tests done in 1991. Paleographic and archeological dating is as late as 100 B.C. But Zeitlin found spelling on the Isaiah scroll "on a par with the spelling in many [Hebrew] writings of the Middle Ages."
The author of this article found new evidence in the Isaiah scroll to indicate a medieval origin at the earliest. The scroll shows sentence separation - most evident in chapters 49 and 50 - a practice unknown in Hebrew texts before the sixth century A.D. It was between the 6th and 10th centuries A.D. that the Masoretes began separating the previously unbroken strings of letters into words and sentences.

"Philip Comfort, professor of Greek and New Testament at Wheaton (Ill.) College and senior Bible editor at Tyndale House Publishers, agrees that there is "very clear versification" in the Isaiah scroll.

"Evident also is the medieval style of breaking the formation of the Hebrew letter "L" at the center, a practice that didn't begin until the 11th century A.D., and putting a vowel on the right side of that letter.

"Aside from the internal evidence of the text, there is archeological evidence for dating the scrolls after the time of Christ. If the Dead Sea Scroll caves had been untouched since 50 A.D., as most current scroll scholars contend, material from later periods should not have been found there."

🇮🇷💥📹 — The closest footage shared so far have shows the moments leading up to this morning’s explosion at the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas in Southern Iran

On video, orange smoke, likely nitrogen dioxide, being produced by a fire interacting with a still unknown chemical can be seen right before the explosion takes place

Iranian journalists claimed that the holder of the cellphone filming died, but so far it wasnt confirmed

The chemical materials that would produce such smoke as well as the blast include:

Ammonium nitrate - NH₄NO₃
Dinitrogen tetroxide - N₂O₄
Nitric acid - HNO3
Sodium perchlorate (NaClO₄)

All of which are likely to have been stored at Bandar Abbas.

Interesting to note that Bandar Abbas Port was claimed to have received a cargo of Rocket solid fuel from Communist China's Zhuhai Gaolan port

Sodium perchlorate (NaClO₄) specially is used to make Ammonium perchlorate (NH4CIO4)

Iranian BMs and Rockets often use Ammonium perchlorate (NH₄ClO₄), alongside PBAN (Polybutadiene Acrylic Acid Acrylonitrile) and HTPB (Hydroxyl-Terminated Polybutadiene), whose materials aforementioned could be used to manufacture such.

As noted by netizens, the explosion on this Iranian port ressembles a lot the Beirut Port explosion of August 4, 2020 when 2750 tonned of ammonium nitrate detonated due to poor storage, causing 218 deaths, over 6,000 injuries, and displaced around 300,000 people, with damages estimated at US$15 billion, 31% of Lebanese GDP back then

Kursk was a British Op

In case you weren’t entirely sure that any EU/UK attempt to continue a war with Russia will be a complete disaster, it turns out that the appallingly stupid attempt to recreate the Battle of the Bulge in Kursk was planned and operated by the British military: On the morning of October 30 2023, dozens of […]
