That's fascinating. You managed to find a source so dishonest that it could claim that the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings saved hundreds of thousands of lives. That isn't even a serious topic of debate, since the post-war study revealed that a US invasion would have cost 20-40,000 lives. And that was an invasion. We could likely have gotten a Japanese surrender without an invasion. The only serious debate is whether it was known BEFORE the bombing that Japan was ready to surrender.

You are lying again. It's the Arabs who still practice slavery - in the Sudan and Mauretania.

Facts aside, can you explain how the existence of Sudanese slavery would disprove the existence of Israeli slavery?
