Fine. It’s not even a concession to say that people are a mix of nature and nurture. But people assume that saying there exists such bell curve for intelligence is the same thing as saying that people’s worth is on a bell curve, and no one is suggesting that (or at least I’m not).

It’s ok to say that there exists natural differences between people.

This is stupid. Noting that there is a bell curve of some innate talent we label intelligence is like noting there’s a bell curve on a person’s height.

Not to be pedantic, but an impressive pharmaceutical industry is not the same as leading cancer research. Still impressive. Not the same. Again, I get your point, but no need to exaggerate realities.

While I get the point you’re trying to make, it’s just incredibly wrong about cuba. Carry on for the rest.

Source: I do lots of cancer related research.

This is only true of GnRH related medications. Use of hormones as well as more effects. Just to be clear.

Arterial, tiny bubbles cause strokes. Venous, giant bubbles cause air emboli.

Sometimes there’s connections that shouldn’t be there that can cause venous bubbles to cross over and be a problem.

It’s an interesting article, but it’s not an exhaustive look at the situation. Look buddy- the article is from the point of an American, and proscribes American actions that should be taken. While that is interesting, it doesn’t touch nearly at all on what the current parties should do (vis a vis Hamas and Israel) and it doesn’t apply ANY scrutiny to Hamas or suggest any actions they should take.

It’s not that it’s not an insightful piece, but it’s POV is limited, and can’t be applied generally.

I’m not justifying either- I’m just saying that Hamas is the responsible party
