RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

a warmonger's view on Israel
actually found this site from one of the supposed spammers who registered here... http://www.terrorismisrael.com/
Quote:Samson Blinded: A Machiavellian Perspective on the Middle East Conflict, by Obadiah Shoher, abandons moralizing to view Israeli-Muslim struggle in terms of raw realpolitik.
Yahoo and Google banned Shoher’s book site from their advertising programs for “unacceptable content,” Amazon deleted the reviews, GoDaddy cancelled hosting, JewishBlogging.com refused to list Shoher's blog as Jewish, and Booksurge terminated the publishing contract. Denounced by leftists and criticized by the ultra-right, Shoher receives threatening letters from both Jews and anti-Semites. More than 170,000 people from 78 countries read the book on Internet.
Morality is alien to politics. International relations are closed to good faith negotiations. Balance of power is the only operative foreign strategy - and the West must use it against the Islamist enemy.
Terrorism is historically normal mode of war. Israel must respect terrorists as efficient warriors – and kill them, no matter the collateral damage. Wars are not humane.
Nuclear terrorism is unavoidable, and it will hit America before Israel. We must learn to mitigate its damages.
Only by shedding liberal idealism the West can win against Islamists. Advocating political rationalism, Shoher deplores ideological myths, and argues for separating politics from moralism. His motto is, an eye for an eye .
The Middle East will reject small Israel, and she can only survive by becoming big. Shoher demonstrates that Israel is militarily capable of annexing Saudi Arabian oilfields and North Lebanon - and proves that the West will tolerate the annexation.
Some call the Samson Blinded a war crimes manual, while the few recognize it as the efficient doctrine of antiterrorism and the uneasy Middle East coexistence.
Shoher, who writes under pen name, served in several public offices, managed election campaigns, and leads a political party. He wrote dozens of articles and essays on politics, political philosophy, religion, economy, and security matters.
with people like this in the world, no wonder people keep on killing each other.

yeah, ghandi's the man. one of the only sane people in history.
have you seen the movie? there's a lot of great info in it, and the actor looks just like him.
I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.
The quickest way to kill a revolution is to wait for it.

i've seen it spelled this way though, maybe they were wrong. or maybe it's like Mao Tse Tung, whose name has been spelled a billion different ways.

To be ruthless against terrorists to be become one of them.
What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy?
