I am sorry but you have a pretty interesting ability to ignore facts. This recent battle was the fault of Netanyahu and high ranking Israelis. Nearly immediately after the boys were dead Israeli police and Netanyahu knew. They also knew the names of those involved with the killings of the teens and also that they did not commit these crimes on Hamas' order. But they did not release these details and Netanyahu himself said that he knew Hamas was responsible even when the information actually supported the opposite conclusion, that Hamas had nothing to do with it.

Hamas was elected democratically by the people of Gaza. If the USA and EU nations, and Israel cared to make peace, why would they declare Hamas to be a terrorist organization when it was elected? That is in other words cutting communication instead of trying to have peace. People have the right to self defense. What if the USA took over part of Canada tomorrow because the UN said it was just, forced many of the people in the captured territory to go away, let the rest suffer under terrible conditions, not allowing them their human rights, not letting them travel freely to other parts of Canada, and subjugated them? Would they have the right to defend themselves? You should look closely at what you think and why you think it. I know that you are used to obedience but you have to try to fight it.

You are haughty, condescending, and just plain rude. You are a dumb canadian and you ought to educate yourself. Here are some sources where you can start:

Such a terrible world we have. You know I am quite interested in psychology among other things and well intelligence is a part of psychology, which you majored in if I am correct. And how race effects intelligence is something interesting and is the subject of some debate. If your memory is good enough how would you rate the general intelligence of those white kids in your program who come from terrible backgrounds against those African-Americans who come from terrible backgrounds? Obviously this is a challenging thing to do and a tricky a topic. What are your thought on how race affects intelligence?

18 year old here who has been very privileged in growing up. Now from what I know about this world and about people I have to presume that the kids who come into where you work mostly are kids that come from broken homes, poverty stricken areas, families with no "good" role models, etc. This has to be true to a large percent of the inmates, I think. Is this true do you think? What is your opinion on the circumstances and the cards dealt to the kids in the program you work at? Thank you for your time and your help to society as well.

Very interesting. And I was in no way, and I don't think you were either, trying to be rude or mean towards any skin color. So what are the kids in there allowed to do for "fun"? Are there any kids who you think simply made one bad mistake and their lives will be ruined for it? Most of the kids in there are kids who were just on the wrong side of life totally, right? I ask this because I myself almost made very bad decisions in my life that could of, just a mere few months ago, sent me to a place similar to where you work. And it's all very interesting and thank you for answering my questions and being so nice.

Hey there, I'm 18 and very interested in classical archaeology. I know this of course depends on the individual but do you think it is wise to get into such a specialized field? I eventually want to be a scholar in this field.
