ISIS Leader Abu Bakr poisioned

I just want to point out that this guy has died something like 5 times now.

He is either invincible or government intelligence is worthless.
 
The thing about saying "fuck Syria let them take care of their own shithole" is...history and innocent human lives.

What if we had said that to the Jews in Europe in 1941? We tried. But thank god we got involved.

Helping others and fighting for causes you believe in is all good, but no one wants to create another sandbox for the military-industrial complex to screw shit up in.

I definitely wouldn't call our military intelligence worthless. I think the government says "there's a possibility that", and the media runs with it. I've noticed they aren't running with the story this time. They recognize that they've had egg on their faces so many times, and are holding out for more details.
 
Three other top leaders were also (food?) poisoned at the feast

"Three other top leaders were also (food?) poisoned at the feast"

Do we have their names? Will this be the first time they're going to die, or have they already died several times before in drone strikes etc?

The DRAMA, the SUSPENSE, what a....Cliffhanger this is :popcorn:

I hear they caught AIDS from an unclean goat.

The goat wore a condom.

In the long run this will be a good thing, but sadly bad things are on the horizon. Between their leader dying and Iraq being almost completely liberated I think there will be an uptick in terrorist attacks in other countries. They've shown in recent months that they are already in desperation mode. They may not have the reach to do much in the U.S. but I pray for the countries in that region.

I agree, in how we should limit "boots on the ground" - it's a complicated dispute.

But I don't agree when it comes to other ways we can help those people caught up in it.

There are NO boots on the ground in Syria.

They would be ripped to shreds were they to try and put their little feet on SAA turf.

Accepting refugees for one.

I resent that this country has turned into Fortress America.

11,000 B.C.: The first evidence of condoms is an arsty one. Caves in France known as Grotte des Combarrelles are said to be the oldest evidence of condoms, with a painting on the wall that scientists say represents them.

1000 B.C.: Some historians argue that condoms made from cloth were used in Ancient Egypt to protect against disease.

1400s A.D.: Glans condoms — ones that only covered the head of the penis — were used in China and Japan. In China, they were made from lamb intestines or oiled silk paper; in Japan, the materials of choice were tortoise shell or animal horn. Hm, tough choice.

1500s: Italian physician and atomist Gabrielle Fallopius writes about the horrors of the then-frequently fatal STD syphilis in De Morbo Gallico. He recommended the use of a protective linen sheath, soaked in chemicals and dried, which would help prevent the acquirement of the disease. Fallopius conducted an experiment using 1,100 participants to determine the early condom's effectiveness; none became infected with syphilis. Condoms to the rescue.



1605: Catholic theologian Leonardus Lessius claimed in De iustitia et iure that condoms are immoral. Side note: strange how we're still facing that argument today?

1600s: Condoms made from animal intestines were first made available to the public. Because of their expensive nature, though, they are frequently reused — something we know to be a big no-no nowadays.

never would normally say this....but should they become "late"...I shan't shed a tear. not in sorrow anyway

Edit: Nevermind what I originally said (misread), but there are these sheep skin and intestine condoms made by Trogan.

The first known documentation of the “condom” was that of King Minos of Crete[1] in about 3000 B.C. King Minos, who ruled Knossos, was a figure of history from the Bronze Age. He was referenced in various manuscripts including the famous Illiad by Homer. Minos, the father of the Minotaur, was said to have “serpents and scorpions” in his semen. His mistresses died after having intercourse with him. In order to protect himself and his partners, which included his wife Pasiphae, the bladder of a goat was introduced into the woman's vagina which protected the woman from disease. Prokris, King Minos' subject, understood the sadness for Minos not being able to produce an heir; upon introduction of the sheath, significant results were shown.[2] It is said that Pasiphae had given birth to eight children after the use of the goat's bladder. It is a subject of controversy that the bladder was inserted into the woman. Another argument brought about is that the goat's bladder was worn by Minos himself and not Pasiphae.

The Ancient Egyptians were one of the first civilizations to use sheaths. Egyptians were known to have a very ritualistic culture which used symbols and calligraphy to denote objective and subjective communication. For protection during intercourse, evidence from about 1000 C.E. states that linen sheaths were used, specifically to prevent tropical diseases like bilharzia. Furthermore, Egyptian men wore colored sheaths to distinguish social status within their complex hierarchy.[3]

The Ancient Roman civilization influenced the modern world in many ways, including architecture, government, philosophy, language, and even condoms. Romans were very keen on the development of public health, since diseases were prevalent as the empire spread throughout the Mediterranean world and beyond. Health was attributed by the people to the goddess Hygieia, who was the daughter of the god of medicine, Asclepius. The Romans[3] did not acknowledge the contraceptive perspective of the use of bladders of animals, but they took keen interest in its effects in public health and prevention of venereal diseases such as syphilis. Little did they know that employment of the sheaths made of bladder would also be contraception; this can be seen as something that stands out or is even contradictory of the Romans due to their evident appearance as a very wise and learned empire. The condoms used in Ancient Rome were made of linen and animal (sheep and goat) intestine or bladder. It is possible that they used muscle tissue from dead combatants but no hard evidence for this exists.

The archaic Djukas[1] tribe that inhabited New Guinea developed its own idea of the condom. They designed a distinct type of female condom that contrasts deeply with other examples in history whether it may be the Egyptians, Romans, or Greeks. A female sheath made from a specific plant was introduced into the vagina prior to intercourse to prevent conception. The sheath was described as six inches long, chalice shaped[1] so that one end was open and the other closed. The pressure exerted by the vagina helped to keep the sheath in a fixed position.

In a more oriental perspective, the Chinese civilization, with their expertise in silk, fashioned sheaths from silk paper that were applied with an oil lubrication. Sheaths became more prevalent as disease and plague spread through the East from Central Europe.[4] The Japanese civilization utilized the Kabuta-Gata, which was a shell that was used to cover the glans. It was made of tortoise shell but occasionally with leather. The Kabuta-Gata could also be used as a supplement to those who suffered from erectile dysfunction.<<
