The united states federal government should end the war in afghanistan.

Wow, That was a mess up. kick the source, And I missunderstood that statement. In conclusion I win this debate. First, he drops every single one of my arguments. He gves you no reason to continue a war in afghanistan. He drops all my arguments so all points go to me. Just vote pro, There is absolutely no reason based on this debate to vote con. However, he concedes that war is horrible, hurts the economy, and causes instability. Therefore we should end the war.
The united states federal government should end the war in afghanistan.

The 257 billion you keep mentioning is how much Australia spends. Not the U.S. Are we not debating the U.S. war in Afghanistan? When did we start debating about how much money Australia spends. If you truly cannot see how Special Operations are effective then you have an insane amount of military history to read, dating back to ancient times. >>War obviously creates regional instability. Its War. Its not happy go fun time. -how? and please use a source Why are you asking me to prove a statement that you first said? You brought up instability "...he never answers my instability advantage." Why are campaigning for votes? Do your arguments not stand on their own?

The practice of Islam should be banned within the United States

For fear of another round forfeiture by my opponent, I will keep this one short. If my opponent comes back and does post, I request that the voting community to consider this round a tie or in my favor if I still out debate him. It"s not fair to expect me to go all out if I don"t know whether or not my opponent is still actively engaged in this debate. Continuing from the previous round, I would like to expand on the concept of "taqiyya" and prove that is already in practice in the U.S. The Islamic Society of North America was funneling money to terrorists while claiming to be a charity to help orphans. Their sister organization in Canada was doing the same thing. (1) These are not the only two Muslim charities involved in this type of activity. This is a chilling example of "taqiyya" being used to exploit Westerners and their political correctness. The first stage of Jihad as explained in the previous video has begun. American mosques have become breeding grounds for anti-western teachings and jihadists. "A survey of 100 randomly selected mosques in America finds 81% of them feature Islamic literature " not including the Quran and Sunnah " that advocates violence. And 85% of the imams running the mosques actively recommend these tracts." (2) There"s more: "Experts indicate 40 separate episodes connecting U.S. mosques to terrorist organizations in the past decade." (3) The Islamic Society of Boston, MA has built a $22 million Islamic Cultural Center, whose founder, Abdurahman Alamoudi, is under scrutiny for extremist ties. Alamoudi currently sits in federal prison."(3) "Several local businessmen connected with the Al Farooq Mosque in Brooklyn allegedly funneled more than $20 million to al-Qaeda through a cleric in Yemen." (3) All this is very disturbing information. The first stage of Jihad is in full swing in America. But what happens when Muslims become a sizeable minority or majority? Well there sure don"t get more peaceful and tolerant. In Dearborn, Michigan Muslims make up 30% of the population. (4) Let"s see what happens when Islam is challenged by a Christian minority amongst a Muslim majority. Remember, according to the Quran and Muhammad you are not allowed to criticize Islam; there is no room for free speech. I refer you to the video now. Please watch the whole thing. It shows the intolerance and violent propensity of Muslims when they have a sizeable population. Also, note that the police force is completely scared or indifferent to do anything about their behavior. They blame the Christians for the Muslims violent actions. They make no arrests or do anything. I ask, what is going to happen when Muslims become an even larger percentage of the population in other cities? 1 http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com... 2 http://news.investors.com... 3 http://www.clarionproject.org... 4 http://www.30-days.net... http://www.youtube.com...
Capitalism

"Yes, Capitalism is the worst system ever devised- except for all the others." Here my opponent is saying that capitalism is the worst system only if you exclude every other system. However, this is just basic logic. If you only have one item on a list, that item will simultaneously be the best and worst on the list automatically. My opponent has proved nothing thus far. Now, we have agreed that the resolution is "Capitalism is the best economic system ever devised." This leaves my opponent with a hefty burden of proof to fill. He must prove that any system other than capitalism is inferior to capitalism. In order to disprove that, I decided to randomly select an ideology out of a list and see what I got. The result: anarchism. I was secretly hoping for communism since it's basically the exact opposite of true free-market capitalism, but oh well. So, what makes anarchism better than capitalism? Many things. First and foremost, anarchism may be the most flexible form of government of all. In anarchism, the people as a whole decide on how they want society to be. There are many forms of anarchism. For example, anarcho-communism is a system in which communism exists, but there is no government to control it. This way, there is no possibility of a tyrannical dictator becoming the ruler. In anarchism, the only purpose of the "government" is to manage foreign affairs. There's an enormous benefit to this - almost no possibility of corruption. Since the well-being of citizens is not decided by a few select individuals, bribing government officials becomes almost pointless and certainly not worth one's time. Now, many people are skeptical of the feasibility of a successful anarchy that doesn't turn into chaos. However, I argue that not only is it possible, it has already existed in the past. The native Americans had a system very similar to anarcho-communism. Everyone worked for the benefit of each other. People listened to their tribe leader, not because they had to, but because they respected them, and that's the way it should be. Another example is Aragon. During the Spanish Revolution, this area had no official rulers. Before, there was a working class of peasants who were controlled by serfs, but the anarchists overthrew them and created a true anarchist society. People were free to fulfill their needs of life without the control of others. Anarcho-communism for the win!
Capitalism

My opponent argues for anarcho capitalism, which, though ensures that you won't be exploited by your goveronment, almost ensures that you will be exploited by someone elses goveronment. The Natve Americans for example lived in an akmost utopian socioty is certain places, the Indians in El Dorado, for example, lived in an absolute communist socioty, and somehow they weeded out the bugs of communism, everyone was treated exactly equal and no one starved. They all died. This is repeated through history, and the truth is, to preserve the rights of the people, a goveronment is necessary, big enough to protect our rights, but not so big that it begins infringing our rights itself. People just aren't good enough for a anarchist socioty to work, infac this was referenced by one of our founding fathers: "If men were angels no goveroment would be necessary" - James Madison

Suffering is Good

Lol. You're supposed to provide arguments to support your claim (your main argument) and not to support *your* rules, aka yourself. Anyway, I don't care if you win because in the first place you win by your rules which in the very first place were ambiguous...lol. You can take that throne of obsession with winning a debate because you won thinking you did rather than citing facts to support your claim primarily because you are the Proposition side here. Well okay, you win because you think you are the rules.
Duke Football Will Go to a Bowl in 2013

Schedule wise, the first to games should be easy wins for Duke, as they play NC Central and Memphis, but after those two games they play Georgia Tech, who went 7-7 last year, and went to the ACC chamionship game. Then they play Pittsburgh, who went 6-7, and is in many of the experts minds, a toss-up. After Pittsburgh, they play a very winnable game against Troy, who went 5-7 last year. After a bye week, they play a Navy team who runs the Triple Option, an offensive running game that takes weeks of preparation for. After facing Navy's triple option, they then have to go on the road to play against Virginia and Virginia Tech in back to back weeks. Altogether, that is a three game stretch that they could easier go 0-3. After a bye week, they then play NC State, who went 7-6 last year. After NC State, they play Miami (fl) Who is arguably the best team on Dukes schedule. After Miami (fl), they play at Wake Forest, and then a rivalry game against North Carolina on the road. Many analysts also believe that it is possible that Duke could lose their games against Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh, as well as their final seven games, which would mean that they could be as bad as 3-9, which would mean that they would miss out on a bowl game.
Duke Football Will Go to a Bowl in 2013

Duke has an easier non-conference schedule this year than last. It will again play NC Central and Memphis, but will also play Troy (who went 5-7 in the weak Sun Belt) and Navy, who went 8-5, but against largely weaker competition. Again this year, Duke will play 7 of its 12 games at Wallace Wade Stadium. You also mentioned that Duke played 3 top-25 (actually top-10) teams last season. This year, it plays none, as Florida St. and Clemson are replaced by Pitt and NC State, who went a combined 14-14 last year (both lost bowl games). Apart from those schedule downgrades, Duke has the exact same schedule as last year, but with 12 winable games instead of 9. Instead of having to win 67% of those games, Duke only has to win 50% of them this year. Duke will not win all 12 of them, but will easily beat NC Central, Memphis, and Troy. Duke will also likely be favored against Virginia, Navy, and Wake Forest. Duke should win 8 games this year.As for your point about Renfree, as I mentioned earlier, Anthony Boone is considered more mobile than Renfree, with bigger big-play potential [1]. he led Duke to a 42-17 win over Virginia last year.[1] http://espn.go.com...
Duke Football Will Go to a Bowl in 2013

Duke last year went 6-7 and went to the Belk Bowl. Duke this year has 14 starters returning, but one of the starers lost is star quarterback Sean Renfree. The came in 5th in their division, but made the bowl game do the a nonconference schedule that featured Florida International, Memphis and North Carolina Central. FIU and Memphis went a combined 7-17, while North Carolina Central went 6-5, but played in the much weaker FCS. Duke also played three top 25 teams and lost them all by a combined 154-40. Duke also won only one road game and had 7 of their 12 games at home. This year, Duke has to play at North Carolina, at Virginia Tech, at Virginia, and have tough home games against Miami (Fl), Georgia Tech, North Carolina State, and Pittsburgh. They also have a game against Wake Forest which is right after they play Miami (Fl) and before they play a rivalry game against North Carolina. Many of the top college football analysts are predicting that Duke will finish around 5-7, which is just short of reaching a bowl game.

Duke Football Will Go to a Bowl in 2013

First of all, I want to address the work that David Cutcliffe has done towards restoring Duke's program. Prior to his arrival in 2008, Duke had gone 4 consecutive seasons winning 2 games or fewer, including a 1-23 combined record in the two seasons before he was hired. Cutcliffe has won at least 3 games in each of his 5 seasons, including taking Duke to its first bowl game since the 1994 season last year. Yes, Duke loses some talent from last year's team that did the minimum to qualify for a bowl game (6-6) in the form of Sean Renfree and Conner Vernon, both of whom are now in the NFL. However, three things should be noted. First and foremost, their replacements are very competent. Anthony Boone, a QB, led Duke to a 42-17 rout of Virginia last year when Renfree was hurt. Meanwhile, WR Jamison Crowder had the same number of receiving yards as Conner Vernon despite catching 9 fewer passes [1]. Secondly, the run game should be stronger than it was last year, as Duke will return its top three rushers [1]. Also, Boone is fairly mobile as is option-QB Brandon Connette. Finally, Duke needs to win 6 games for bowl eligibility. Last season, Duke had to play 3 teams that would finish in the Top 10 of the Coaches' Poll (Florida St. , Clemson, and Stanford) [2]. Duke lost those games by a combined 154-40. Thus, Duke was actually 6-3 against the caliber of competition Duke will face this year, as Duke is replacing those three teams with Pittsburgh, NC State, and Navy, three very beatable teams [3]. Therefore, Duke has 12 chances to win 6 games this year, while it only had 9 realistic chances to do so last year. If Duke can win 2/3 of those again, it will go 8-4 and back to a bowl game. 1. . http://espn.go.com... 2. . http://espn.go.com...3. . http://espn.go.com...
UN-educational shows

Your friends must not watch it as often as they can. Thankfully, your friends have not been sucked in to the mind of television and influenced by it, and you have also not been sucked in. I should know that when you are in love with a show you watch it as often as you can sometimes even if your parents won`t let you watch it when they are around so you back-stab them and disobey them so you can watch it.
UN-educational shows

Give your friend me condolences. My parents did not let me watch that and I am in accelerated classes, yet I doubt that that is why. I have friends just as smart as me that love spongebob and adventure time. All they talk about are their shows however. That is when they start to sound dumb. My friends that watch Doctor who always sound smart. Then there are those of us who don't watch tv or they just watch brainless shows and we are more focused on our work because the shows don't require brain space.
UN-educational shows

Well, in this day and age, it depends on if you have access to the internet or if you have cable. More and more people do though, so we can't depend on the fall back idea of having people who were un-exposed become our leaders. However, maybe the people do need the exposure of seeing lazy or stupid people on TV so that the people who are smart to their cores can realize that that is exactly what they don't want to be and become. They will go onto be the ones who are smart in every way (street smart and book smart) and those are the people who need to be and deserve to be our leaders.
UN-educational shows

Well, while that is correct the "humorous" shows are sometimes inappropriate and can give boys and girls the wrong idea leading to, what I call being a Psycho-path when they grow up. What if they continue to watch those types of shows as they grow up, then we would all be living in a world where UN-educational shows basically rule our minds. They would just be better off watching actual educational shows such as Full House, a show with a lesson every episode.
UN-educational shows

Dog with a blog has many good life lessons embedded in it. I actually used one of Stan's lessons in an essay that I wrote for school. But besides that, sometimes it's good to watch mindless shows such as Sam & Cat or Victorious just because they give us humor and a break from life. I personally hate Regular Show and Adventure Time and Gravity Falls because they are so EXTREMELY stupid. I think that shows can be stupid to some level, but not to such an extreme.
UN-educational shows

Yes, that is all society has become; back-stabbing, disobeying, brainless children who will grow up to never have a life. Yet, on the topic of watching things behind parent's backs, YouTube is a source of the problem, too. It has become so easy to watch whatever you want on any device that people become distant from real solid people. YouTube could be seen as a way people express themselves,or it could be the source of first-world problems.
