", "A lot of football stars are more than overpaid: Wenger makes sure Arsenal always gets a good bargain. ", "That is why we are one of the most financially disciplined top clubs in Europe and our future prospects are brighter than Chelsea (they posts only losses and imagine if Ibramovich drops dead), Man U (Crazy debts in their books) and Liverpool (limited prospects for enlarged income streams)\n\nBUT, his stinginess gives me the creeps at times, as now.

", "Given they've already bought Adebuyor(£5m), Walcott(£10m), Diaby(£3m) and Rosicky(£7m) since Xmas and only received money only for Owusu, Bentley and Pennant(resale), I make it a net spend of around £14m this year. ", "Even if you just count the spending since May he would still only have £5-6m net available for the rest of the season.

", "In \"between-centers grinding\" operations, a cylindrical workpiece is supported by means of \"center holes\" disposed in opposite ends of the workpiece. ", "The center holes of the workpiece ordinarily originally are provided therein by means of a lathe. ", "One end of the workpiece is positioned in the jaws of the lathe, and a center drill is used to drill one center hole in the opposed end of the workpiece. ", "The workpiece is then removed from the jaws of the lathe chuck and reversed, and the procedure is repeated to cut the second center hole in the other end of the workpiece. ", "Unfortunately, it is very difficult to achieve the desired accuracy in alignment of the two center holes formed in this manner. ", "Furthermore, the roundness of such center holes is not as accurate as is sometimes needed. ", "Cylindrical workpieces with lathe-cut center holes often are heat treated before the between-centers grinding operation, and this usually results in some warpage, which misaligns the lathe-cut center holes, even if they initially are perfectly aligned and perfectly round. ", "In order to solve this problem, a prior art machine made by EX-CEL-O Corporation of 549 Cedar Street, Newington, Conn. 06111, known as a \"center lapping machine\" was devised many years ago and remains the only such machine that is commonly used. ", "This center lapping machine includes a stationary, rigidly supported, upwardly oriented conical support, referred to herein as a \"dead center\" cone coaxially disposed with a rotary conical grinding stone that is commonly referred to as a \"lapping stone\" mounted on a motor driven spindle. ", "This spindle is driven by a belt and pulleys, and has four speeds which can be varied only by changing a belt and pulleys. ", "The lapping stone can be \"dressed\" by means of a built-in dressing tool that is pivotal by means of a gate-like hinge mechanism to swing a diamond dressing tip adjacent to the rotary lapping stone. ", "The diamond tip point can be moved along the surface of the rotating lapping stone, trimming it precisely to the proper angle, removing any buildup of material that may have occurred. ", "To continue center lapping operations, the dressing tool is pivoted away from the lapping stone. ", "The user positions one end of a workpiece to be center lapped so that the tip of the dead center cone is inserted into that center hole. ", "The operator then lowers the spindle on which the lapping stone is supported into the upper center hole, and lightly grinds the workpiece material surrounding the upper center hole, thereby producing a new, cleanly lapped, precisely oriented center hole. ", "The workpiece is then inverted, and the same operation is repeated to lap the other center hole.", "\nAlthough the EX-CEL-O center lapping machine has been the \"industry standard\" for many years, it suffers from a number of shortcomings. ", "One is that the dressing tool mechanism does not always provide the extremely precise accuracy necessary to always dress the lapping stone as accurately as is needed. ", "This problem is especially pronounced for older machines, due to the wear in the hinge mechanism and the failure of the dressing mechanism to return to precisely the same dressing position every time it is used. ", "Other problems with this prior art center lapping machine include the necessity of a time consuming belt changing operation to attain one speed which is satisfactory for dressing a particular stone and another spindle speed which is necessary for center lapping a particular type of workpiece with that dressed lapping stone. ", "This operation sometimes must be repeated every time the lapping stone is dressed, which may be as often as every dozen or so center lapping operations, since hard metal workpieces rapidly deteriorate the grinding surface of even the hardest lapping stone. ", "The time required to change spindle speeds by carrying out a belt changing operation greatly reduces the efficiency of the machinists in carrying out the between centers grinding operations. ", "In modern applications, required tolerances for between centers grinding in the aircraft turbine industry range from vary one ten-thousandth to a millionth of an inch. ", "These tolerances cannot be maintained on a high yield basis without excess use of high cost machinist's time with the above described prior art center lapping machine. ", "Furthermore, some lapping stones have cone angles other than the sixty degree angle, which is the only dressing angle capable of being utilized by the prior art center lapping machine.", "\nThus, there is an unmet need for an improved center lapping machine which is capable of consistently producing extremely high precision, precisely aligned center holes in workpieces to allow extremely precise between centers grinding operations to be performed on the workpieces.", "\nAccordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide an improved center lapping machine and method for providing extremely precise dressing of lapping stones with an extremely high degree of repeatability.", "\nIt is another object of the invention to provide an improved center lapping machine which avoids excessive inconvenience and waste of time by the operator in changing spindle speeds from an optimum dressing speed to an optimum center lapping speed.", "\nIt is another object of the invention to provide an improved center lapping machine and method which avoids inaccuracy in dressing of a lapping stone due to failure of the dressing mechanism to always return to precisely the same position for each dressing operation.", "\nIt is another object of the invention to provide an improved center lapping machine that avoids inaccuracy in the center lapping operation due to slight misalignment of the dead center cone.", "\nIt is another object of the invention to provide an improved center lapping machine which precisely and conveniently can dress a plurality of lapping stones having different cone angles." ]

", "The age and comorbidities of patients included in the NAXOS study were similar to those of patients from the PAROS study (Apixaban in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation in a Real Life Setting: Cross-Sectional Study in France), a recent French cross-sectional survey of OAC prescriptions in patients with NVAF.^[@R15]^\n\nThe safety, effectiveness, and all-cause mortality observations pertaining to apixaban and VKAs in NAXOS are consistent with the results of the ARISTOTLE trial.^[@R4]^ The mortality of VKA-treated patients, however, was higher in NAXOS (13.39%) (data not shown) than in ARISTOTLE (3.94%), likely due to the older age of patients in the NAXOS cohort and due to the stringent selection process used to identify eligibility in randomized trials.

", "It is one of the largest nationwide observational cohorts of patients initiating OACs for the treatment of NVAF to date, providing high statistical power. ", "Results were consistent across sensitivity analyses. ", "Most importantly, it was population based and relied on a single payer (French National Health System) database, thereby minimizing the potential for selection bias. ", "Finally, although it is not possible to exclude residual bias favoring apixaban in the comparisons, the fact that, among patients treated with DOACs, those receiving apixaban had higher CHA~2~DS~2~-VASc and Charlson scores than patients receiving the other DOACs suggests that residual bias by indication is an unlikely explanation for the superior safety of apixaban and that the findings are conservative estimates. ", "The magnitude of some differences between DOACs suggests that head-to-head randomized clinical trials appear warranted. ", "From an exploratory calculation conducted by authors based on the proportion of events, around 10 000 patients per treatment arm would be needed to evaluate outcomes across DOACs in a hypothetical head-to-head trial (assuming an 80% power).", "\n\nLike all observational studies, NAXOS has limitations: patients with NVAF were identified by an algorithm that may have excluded patients with less severe disease, such as those with uncomplicated paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. ", "The SNDS database does not collect diagnoses other than discharge diagnoses; therefore, some cardiovascular risk factors had to be identified from proxies based on treatments and hospital diagnoses (the drawbacks of using DRG and inability to fully ascertain the nature/cause of some outcome events are well known), and information was missing for major confounders (clearance of creatinine, hemoglobin, smoking status, weight, diet, and alcohol consumption), as is often the case for claims data, or even for medical records when data are not regularly updated. ", "Thus, the CHADS~2~, CHA~2~DS~2~-VASc, modified HAS-BLED, and Charlson scores adjusted for age were assessed through algorithms based on proxies. ", "It would have been of interest to separate the etiological subtypes of ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage, as we aware that the exact etiology is important for determining a causal relationship to anticoagulants' use. ", "However, in the database, we could not fully ascertain the nature/cause of these outcome events (for instance, in some elderly patients, no radiological investigation was performed, when the overall health status was poor).", "\n\nAlthough significant efforts were made to minimize confounding, residual confounding may be present, as in all observational analyses. ", "Nonetheless, the consistency of our findings is reassuring, suggesting robust evidence. ", "Large numbers of models were produced, opening a possibility of correction for multiple testing. ", "However, the majority of our findings were highly statistically significant, and the application of corrections for multiple testing would not have affected the critical findings, even if a threshold of *P*=0.001 and Bonferroni corrections have been used. ", "Finally, edoxaban is not reimbursed in France for treatment of NVAF and therefore could not be included in the present analysis.", "\n\nConclusions\n===========\n\nIn NAXOS, apixaban-treated patients had a lower risk of major bleeding events leading to hospitalization, lower risk of stroke and STEs, and lower risk of all-cause mortality compared with patients receiving VKAs.

", "One can observe from the figures 1-3 that the energy in Einstein’s prescription is always positive whereas the energy in Møller’s prescription assumes positive values only after a certain distance from the horizon. ", "Interestingly, we note that the energy in Einstein’s prescription adopts some real values within the horizon.

", "When $r\\approx \\sqrt{\\theta} $, then $E_M \\neq E_E$. In fact $E_E\n>0 $ and $E_M<0$. Our results show that the Einstein prescription is a powerful concept than Møller’s prescription.

[ "Introduction {#Sec1}\n============\n\nStructured or complex light beams with tailored intensity, polarization or phase have emerged as an interesting route in a variety of applications (e.g., microscopy, quantum optics and information, photonics, optical trapping, data communication, etc.)^[@CR1]--[@CR6]^. The development of efficient beam converters allows generating powerful pulses of complex light beams, which is of particular interest in direct laser processing and surface structuring. ", "For example, optical vortex beams with nanosecond pulse duration have been exploited to fabricate chiral micro-needles on various materials (e.g. metals, silicon and azo-polymer)^[@CR7],[@CR8]^, while a variety of structures have been achieved with fs pulses (e.g., silicon nano-cones^[@CR9]^, polymer micro-tubes^[@CR10]^, graphene micro- and nano-disks^[@CR11]^, nano-cavities in glasses^[@CR12]^, etc.). ", "An amazing property of fs laser pulses is the ability to trigger the formation of self-organized quasi-periodic surface patterns, generally indicated as laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS)^[@CR13]--[@CR15]^. Under fs laser irradiation, LIPSS with a period Λ considerably smaller than the laser wavelength, λ, or with a near-wavelength period are formed^[@CR13]^, which are generally termed as *high spatial frequency* LIPSS (HSFL, typ. ", "Λ ≪ λ/2) and *low spatial frequency* LIPSS (LFSL, Λ \\~ λ), respectively. ", "In the present investigation, with LIPSS we namely refer to LFSL. ", "For metals and semiconductors, the typical LIPSS are ripples perpendicular to the laser polarization forming a surface grating with a sub-wavelength pitch. ", "The ripples formation is generally interpreted as resulting from an interference process between the incident laser light and a surface scattered wave associated to surface roughness^[@CR16]--[@CR19]^, but also other mechanisms, like self-organization of surface instabilities, hydrodynamics, etc., ", "can be involved^[@CR20]--[@CR22]^. More recently, for semiconductors (e.g. InP and Si), other LIPSS characterized by a supra-wavelength period and a preferential orientation along the laser polarization, indicated as grooves, have attracted attention^[@CR23],[@CR24]^. Grooves are typically formed at locations characterized by higher fluence, and for large number of laser pulses; their genesis seems to be strictly related to a further spatial modulation of the intensity appearing at higher excitation level, and to the presence of nanoparticles back-deposited on the target surface during the ablation process^[@CR25]--[@CR27]^. However, upon multiple-pulse irradiation the periodic intensity modulations progressively lead to local ablation and/or material reorganization, eventually leading to LIPSS formation on the material surface.", "\n\nThe general characteristics that the LIPSS orientation is linked to the state of polarization (SoP) of the incident beam has been exploited to obtain new morphological patterns by generating ripples and grooves with fs vector vortex (VV) beams characterized by spatially variant polarization and intensity distributions^[@CR26],[@CR28]--[@CR31]^. Moreover, the analysis of the surface structures has also been shown to offer a useful approach to the characterization of intense complex light fields^[@CR32]--[@CR35]^.

", "With these ashes, the priest marks a cross on the foreheads of worshipers, saying, \"Remember, man, that dust thou art, and unto dust thou shalt return\" (Genesis 3:19 KJV). ", "Besides showing sorrow for their sins, those who honor Ash Wednesday add an additional meaning; the need to prepare for a holy death.", "\n\nOrigin of Ash Wednesday\n\nAsh Wednesday has a non-Christian origin and was accepted into the beliefs of the Catholic Church at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. ", "The council also settled upon the 40-day fast period as the standard length to celebrate Lent. ", "During this time period the goal of Constantine was to combine pagans and Christians into a peaceable unit within the Roman kingdom.", "\n\nEven after the Council of Nicaea the beginning start date of Lent was still questioned. ", "In 601 Pope Gregory moved the beginning of Lent from the fourth Sunday of the year to Ash Wednesday, 46 days before Easter. ", "This changed allowed for 40 days of fasting with six Sundays counted as feast days, for a total of 46 days for Lent. ", "Pope Gregory also instituted the tradition of marking parishioners forehead’s with ashes in the shape of a cross.", "\n\nIs Ash Wednesday Mentioned in the Bible?", "\n\nAsh Wednesday is not specifically mentioned in the Bible, however, from Biblical times, sprinkling oneself with ashes has been a mark of sorrow for sin. ", "Several times the Bible mentions people repenting in dust and ashes; for example: Mordecai (Esther 4:1), Job (Job 42:6), the inhabitants of Nineveh (Jonah 3:5-6), and Daniel (Daniel 9:3-4). ", "Repentance in dust and ashes often was accompanied with fasting during Bible times.", "\n\nThe type of fast Jesus himself endorsed was the following, found in Matthew 6:16-18, \"Moreover, when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance. ", "For they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting. ", "Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. ", "But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.”", "\n\nAdditionally, Isaiah 58:5-7 says, \"Is it a fast that I have chosen, a day for a man to afflict his soul? ", "Is it to bow down his head like a bulrush, and to spread out sackcloth and ashes? ", "Would you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the Lord? “", "Is this not the fast that I have chosen: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke? ", "Is it not to share your bread with the hungry, and that you bring to your house the poor who are cast out; when you see the naked, that you cover him, and not hide yourself from your own flesh?”", "\n\nJesus is calling His followers to avoid making a show when fasting, but rather to help those in need.

", "Therefore, Christians are under no obligation to celebrate the holiday. ", "The important fact to remember is that Christians should be ready and willing to repent, fast, and focus on God throughout the year and not just during the Lenten season.", "\n\nAdditionally, Ash Wednesday is not a day of holy obligation, although Roman Catholics attend Mass on this day in order to mark the beginning of the Lenten season.

", "Most of them were anti-Semites, because where best to send Jews but to Palestine. ", "Today John Hagee, who believes Hitler was acting out the divine will, is the spokesman for CUFI.", "\n\nIn Genesis and Ezekiel Gog and Magog are forces of the Apocalypse who are prophesied to come out of the north and destroy Israel unless stopped. ", "The Book of Revelation took up the Old Testament prophesy:\n\n“And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.”", "\n\nBush believed the time had now come for that battle, telling Chirac:\n\n“This confrontation is willed by God, who wants to use this conflict to erase his people’s enemies before a New Age begins”…\n\nThere can be little doubt now that President Bush’s reason for launching the war in Iraq was, for him, fundamentally religious. ", "He was driven by his belief that the attack on Saddam’s Iraq was the fulfilment of a Biblical prophesy in which he had been chosen to serve as the instrument of the Lord.", "\n\n“Tony’s Christian faith is part of him, down to his cotton socks. ", "He believed strongly at the time, that intervention in Kosovo, Sierra Leone – Iraq too – was all part of the Christian battle; good should triumph over evil, making lives better.”", "\n\nMr Burton, who was often described as Mr Blair’s mentor, says that his religion gave him a “total belief in what’s right and what’s wrong”, leading him to see the so-called War on Terror as “a moral cause”…\n\nAnti-war campaigners criticised remarks Mr Blair made in 2006, suggesting that the decision to go to war in Iraq would ultimately be judged by God.", "\n\nBill Moyers reports that the organization Christians United for Israel – led by highly-influential Pastor John C. Hagee – is a universal call to all Christians to help factions in Israel fund the Jewish settlements, throw out all the Palestinians and lobby for a pre-emptive invasion of Iran. ", "All to bring Russia into a war against us causing World War III followed by Armageddon, the Second Coming and The Rapture. ", "See this and this\n\nThis all revolves around what is called Dispensationalism. ", "So popular is Dispensationalism that Tim LaHaye’s Left Behind series has sold 65 million copies.", "\n\nDr. Timothy Webber – an evangelical Christian who has served as a teacher of church history and the history of American religion at Denver Seminary and Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Vice-President at Northern Baptist Theological Seminary in Lombard, IL, and President of Memphis Theological Seminary in Tennessee – notes:\n\nIn a recent Time/CNN poll, more than one-third of Americans said that since the terrorist attacks of 9/11, they have been thinking more about how current events might be leading to the end of the world.", "\n\nWhile only 36 percent of all Americans believe that the Bible is God’s Word and should be taken literally, 59 percent say they believe that events predicted in the Book of Revelation will come to pass. ", "Almost one out of four Americans believes that 9/11 was predicted in the Bible, and nearly one in five believes that he or she will live long enough to see the end of the world. ", "Even more significant for this study, over one-third of those Americans who support Israel report that they do so because they believe the Bible teaches that the Jews must possess their own country in the Holy Land before Jesus can return.", "\n\nMillions of Americans believe that the Bible predicts the future and that we are living in the last days. ", "Their beliefs are rooted in dispensationalism, a particular way of understanding the Bible’s prophetic passages, especially those in Daniel and Ezekiel in the Old Testament and the Book of Revelation in the New Testament. ", "They make up about one-third of America’s 40 or 50 million evangelical Christians and believe that the nation of Israel will play a central role in the unfolding of end-times events. ", "In the last part of the 20th century, dispensationalist evangelicals become Israel’s best friends-an alliance that has made a serious geopolitical difference.", "\n\n***\n\nStarting in the 1970s, dispensationalists broke into the popular culture with runaway best-sellers, and a well-networked political campaign to promote and protect the interests of Israel. ", "Since the mid-1990s, tens of millions of people who have never seen a prophetic chart or listened to a sermon on the second coming have read one or more novels in the Left Behind series, which has become the most effective disseminator of dispensationalist ideas ever.", "\n\n***\n\nDuring the early 1980s the Israeli Ministry of Tourism recruited evangelical religious leaders for free “familiarization” tours. ", "In time, hundreds of evangelical pastors got free trips to the Holy Land. ", "The purpose of such promotional tours was to enable people of even limited influence to experience Israel for themselves and be shown how they might bring their own tour group to Israel. ", "The Ministry of Tourism was interested in more than tourist dollars: here was a way of building a solid corps of non-Jewish supporters for Israel in the United States by bringing large numbers of evangelicals to hear and see Israel’s story for themselves. ", "The strategy caught on.", "\n\n***\n\nShortly after the Six-Day War, elements within the Israeli government saw the potential power of the evangelical subculture and began to mobilize it as a base of support that could influence American foreign policy. ", "The Israeli government sent Yona Malachy of its Department of Religious Affairs to the United States to study American fundamentalism and its potential as an ally of Israel. ", "Malachy was warmly received by fundamentalists and was able to influence some of them to issue strong pro-Israeli manifestos. ", "By the mid-1980s, there was a discernible shift in the Israeli political strategy. ", "The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the Jewish state’s major lobbying group in Washington, D.C., started re-aligning itself with the American political right-wing, including Christian conservatives. ", "Israel’s timing was perfect. ", "It began working seriously with American dispensationalists at the precise moment that American fundamentalists and evangelicals were discovering their political voice.", "\n\n* **\n\nProbably the largest pro-Israel organization of its kind is the National Unity Coalition for Israel, which was founded by a Jewish woman who learned how to get dispensationalist support. ", "NUCI opposes “the establishment of a Palestinian state within the borders of Israel.”", "\n\n***\n\nIn their commitment to keep Israel strong and moving in directions prophesied by the Bible, dispensationalists are supporting some of the most dangerous elements in Israeli society. ", "They do so because such political and religious elements seem to conform to dispensationalist beliefs about what is coming next for Israel. ", "By lending their support-both financial and spiritual-to such groups, dispensationalists are helping the future they envision come to pass.", "\n\n***\n\nDispensationalists believe that the Temple is coming too; and their convictions have led them to support the aims and actions of what most Israelis believe are the most dangerous right-wing elements in their society, people whose views make any compromise necessary for lasting peace impossible. ", "Such sentiments do not matter to the believers in Bible prophecy, for whom the outcome of the quarrelsome issue of the Temple Mount has already been determined by God.", "\n\nSince the end of the Six-Day War, then, dispensationalists have increasingly moved from observers to participant-observers. ", "They have acted consistently with their convictions about the coming Last Days in ways that make their prophecies appear to be self-fulfilling.", "\n\n***\n\nAs Paul Boyer has pointed out, dispensationalism has effectively conditioned millions of Americans to be somewhat passive about the future and provided them with lenses through which to understand world events. ", "Thanks to the sometimes changing perspectives of their Bible teachers, dispensationalists are certain that trouble in the Middle East is inevitable, that nations will war against nations, and that the time is coming when millions of people will die as a result of nuclear war, the persecution of Antichrist, or as a result of divine judgment. ", "Striving for peace in the Middle East is a hopeless pursuit with no chance of success.", "\n\n***\n\nFor the dispensational community, the future is determined. ", "The Bible’s prophecies are being fulfilled with amazing accuracy and rapidity. ", "They do not believe that the Road Map will-or should-succeed. ", "According to the prophetic texts, partitioning is not in Israel’s future, even if the creation of a Palestinian state is the best chance for peace in the region. ", "Peace is nowhere prophesied for the Middle East, until Jesus comes and brings it himself. ", "The worse thing that the United States, the European Union, Russia, and the United Nations can do is force Israel to give up land for a peace that will never materialize this side of the second coming. ", "Anyone who pushes for peace in such a manner is ignoring or defying God’s plan for the end of the age.", "\n\n***\n\nIt seems clear that dispensationalism is on a roll, that its followers feel they are riding the wave of history into the shore of God’s final plan. ", "Why should they climb back into the stands when being on the field of play is so much more fun and apparently so beneficial to the game’s outcome? ", "As [one dispensationalist group's] advertisement read, “Don’t just read about prophecy when you can be part of it.”", "\n\nThose who say that criticizing Zionism is anti-semitic are misleading people for their own ulterior motives which have nothing to do with ensuring the safety of the Jewish people.", "\n\nIsraeli Zionists are no more true to the cultural heritage of the Jewish people than Christian Zionists are.", "\n\nAtheist War Hawks Manipulate Believers to Beat the Drums of War\n\nLeo Strauss is the father of the Neo-Conservative movement, including many leaders of the current administration.", "\n\nIndeed, many of the main neocon players – including Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Stephen Cambone, Elliot Abrams, and Adam Shulsky – were students of Strauss at the University of Chicago, where he taught for many years.", "\n\nThe people pushing for war against Iran are the same neocons who pushed for war against Iraq. ", "See this and this. (", "They planned both wars at least 20 years ago.) ", "For example, Shulsky was the director of the Office of Special Plans – the Pentagon unit responsible for selling false intelligence regarding Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction. ", "He is now a member of the equivalent organization targeting Iran: the Iranian Directorate.", "\n\nStrauss, born in Germany, was an admirer of Nazi philosophers and of Machiavelli. ", "Strauss believed that a stable political order required an external threat and that if an external threat did not exist, one should be manufactured. ", "Specifically, Strauss thought that:\n\nA political order can be stable only if it is united by an external threat . . . . ", "Following Machiavelli, he maintained that if no external threat exists then one has to be manufactured\n\nIndeed, Stauss used the analogy of Gulliver’s Travels to show what a Neocon-run society would look like:\n\n“When Lilliput [the town] was on fire, Gulliver urinated over the city, including the palace. ", "In so doing, he saved all of Lilliput from catastrophe, but the Lilliputians were outraged and appalled by such a show of disrespect.” (", "this quote also from the same biographer)\n\nOnly a great fool would call the new political science diabolic . . . ", "Nevertheless one may say of it that it fiddles while Rome burns. ", "It is excused by two facts: it does not know that it fiddles, and it does not know that Rome burns.", "\n\nSo Strauss seems to have advocated governments letting terrorizing catastrophes happen on one’s own soil to one’s own people — of “pissing” on one’s own people, to use his Gulliver’s travel analogy. ", "And he advocates that government’s should pretend that they did not know about such acts of mayhem: to intentionally “not know” that Rome is burning. ", "He advocates messing with one’s own people in order to save them from some “catastophe” (perhaps to justify military efforts to monopolize middle eastern oil to keep it away from our real threat — an increasingly-powerful China?).", "\n\nWhat does this have to do with religion?", "\n\nStrauss taught that religion should be used as a way to manipulate people to achieve the aims of the leaders. ", "But that the leaders themselves need not believe in religion.", "\n\nIn the late 1990s Irving Kristol and other writers in neoconservative magazines began touting anti-Darwinist views, in support of intelligent design. ", "Since these neoconservatives were largely of secular backgrounds, a few commentators have speculated that this – along with support for religion generally – may have been a case of a “noble lie”, intended to protect public morality, or even tactical politics, to attract religious supporters.", "\n\nSo is it any surprise that the folks who planned war against Iraq and Iran at least 20 years ago are pushing religious disinformation to stir up the evangelical community?", "\n\nI’ve recently seen a swarm of spam claiming that all Muslims are evil, that they want to take over the world and establish a Muslim caliphate, and that they want to nuke Iran. ", "They misquote Muslims and use false statements to try to stir up religious hatred.", "\n\nThey are simply promoting the Straussian playbook: stir up religious sentiment – even if you are personally an atheist – to create and demonize an “enemy”, so as to promote war …\n\nThe truth is however the opposite. ", "It is Palestinian in-fighting, corruption and political illusions in imperialism which have brought us to the present impasse whereby Hamas and Fateh compete as to who can best oppress the Palestinians.", "\n\nAnd of course there is the Palestinian quisling Authority, which as far as I know isn't Jewish!", "\n\nThe fact is that political morons and idiots like Shafic have racialised and divided the Palestinians by accepting Zionist ideology at its word.", "\n\nContrast this with South Africa and the ANC where there was unity of purpose and struggle.", "\n\nThe tragedy is that politically the Palestinians have gone backwards in the past 40 years and their leaderships still cling to the phantom of a 2 states solution\n\nYou Jews are destroying the Palestinian movement.", "All your smears and fighting .....Jews leave the Palestinian struggle alone, you have done more dammage in the last 10 years then the Zionists." ]
