Class of 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
i am so out of shape too relative to how i was back in January, just trying to get back a schedule so i can rid myself of this mcat belly that has haunted me for 3 months. and let me tell you, its much easier to gain it than it is to lose it!

on an unrelated note, i don't know if i want boston or orlando to win today...
 
On another unrelated note, I hate Nebraska.
one of my math professors had the dimensions of nebraska all broken down. he made a little nebraska really is flatter than a pancake poster and hung it on his door. :laugh:
 
and why does this thread always have an extra page on the end? 😕
 
New resource for all of you from the mod staff! It's a convenient way to keep track of all the threads you'll be following over the year. http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?t=728165. You can find it stickied at the top of the Pre-Allo page, and when the 2010-2011 School Specific Discussions forum is made, it will be there too.

Please PM me if you think anything should be added to the resource if it's not there already.
 
Oakland guy I too am from middle eastern decent but raised in western culture. I was actually born in Baghdad but moved to Canada when i was 4 and been here ever since. I just wanted to say i agree/support your general stance. There are a few points that i would argue but over all i think your right.

Nice, I was born and have lived my whole life in America, but I am half-Iraqi and half-Lebanese. Thanks for supporting my stance, I guess that makes 2 outlandish and ridiculous people.

Anyways, I'm sick of the flame war, but I can't stand for people of my heritage being called disgusting for their view. We can sit here and point fingers and call people names all day and that won't solve a thing. The reality is that the majority of Arabs have an anti-Jewish sentiment because the Palestinian people were stripped of everything they know and now live in an extremely impoverished and unstable environment. I'm sorry Bleargh, but this isn't anything ridiculous or outlandish and I cannot speak for the majority of the Arabic people; however, it doesn't take a pre-med to realize that this is the main view of the people. There are extremists who take this view to the max and think the entire race should be destroyed, this IS NOT the view of the populous, but instead a view of a small minority of people. Arabs support groups that are fighting for Palestinian rights. It just so happens that many, if not all, of these groups want to exterminate Israel although in my opinion they are just bluffing and using statements like that to rile up people and to try to scare Israel. Again, I want to sum this up: The majority Arabs don't support extermination of any race, but they support defending Palestinians, yet the only means of supporting this cause is by supporting radical groups who may have the goal of exterminating a race. I don't like it when my people are called disgusting and I don't think you would like it if yours were either.

Please don't respond to this, I do not want a flame war and I have to go volunteer now.

wrong again.

just to be clear, what you said was that a majority of muslims/arabs support the view expressed by that young lady, which was the extermination of jews. stop contradicting yourself, it makes your opinions more difficult to follow than they already are.

edit: i just caught this. you think Hamas is bluffing????! 🤣

I do not recall saying that; however, if I did I meant to say that most Arabs support Hamas because of their goal of Palestinian freedom and they support those who defend themselves in Palestine. Again, there is a minority of radicals who want to exterminate Israel. I don't think supporting Palestine is disgusting, I do think that exterminating any race of people is disgusting.
 
Oakland, read what you just posted.

you said we cant point fingers, and then you immediately follow by saying that there is some "reality" (yeah, really FAKE) and point fingers

you say you cant speak for the majority of people, but make a claim for this majority


also, how would you know that extermination is NOT the view of the populous? have you gone and asked every single one of these people, or even 51% of them to make such a claim?


lastly, the only means of supporting this "cause" is not by supporting radical groups, that's just the ignorance




i would much rather be talking about KG vs Dwight anyways
 
you said we should not condemn this girl for having a view supported by the majority of a race/religion (which is a stupid defense, by the way). her explictly stated view is the hunting of jews. ergo, you are saying the majority view supports the extermination of jews
 
lastly, the only means of supporting this "cause" is not by supporting radical groups, that's just the ignorance
exactly. it's complete nonsense. even the president supports a full state of palestine. guess that means he is a hamas supporter. 🙄

Dude, I can go on and I can find you polls and I can talk about my trips to the Middle East, but I'm done. You can choose to believe what you want. Honestly, I thought people were calling her disgusting for not condemning Hamas, even though the leaders of the group hold specific views.

I think the Magic have been extremely dominant. Did anyone hear about the whole beef with Lebron and Delonte West?

you would be, unsurprisingly, wrong. in addition, hamas should be condemned, just the same way you feel it's so important to condemn israeli actions

what's the deal with west

I never said they shouldn't, I posted my personal view on the entire situation.

And I'm on the same side as you guys. I think what these groups are doing is stupid, futile, and a waste of time and resources. I also think what is happening to Palestinians is wrong.

I just stated that there are reasons that people support these groups. From my experiences with Arabic people (and I am one of these people and have many experiences with them) it seems to me that the support for these groups is not to support their actions in extermination of a race, but rather in Palestinian freedom. I may be completely wrong, and my sampling of Arabs, although diverse, is way too small and the Arabic news networks may all be spewing their own views and not views of the people, my relatives and friends in the Middle East could be lying to me and I may have been hallucinating when I have visited the Middle East.

lol delonte is bangin lebrons mama apparantly


polls? i understand where you're coming from, but that doesnt make your statements correct at all. just leave it at that
 
i have relatives in the middle east AND in israel, and i could be blurting rumors, one-sided ideas, but i'm not. i have just as many experiences as you, if not more. i don't necessarily agree with what some of the government is doing either, but that doesnt give any credit to your claims, almost all of which are absurd

you're going to tell me that a news broadcast is a reliable source? get outta here dude
 
there are no 'sides' here, and yes, there are many reasons people support groups like hamas, many quite understandable. that doesn't justify hamas. it merely explains it.

also, you might want to look up 'frugal'
 
Well there's a huge rumor going around...

http://apexnewsnetwork.com/21347/lebron-jamess-mom-gloria-james-affair-with-delonte-west/

It sounds really ridiculous, but the lady who broke the news was the first one to break the Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush break-up. It would be crazy if it were true.
just a rumor, but it would be hilarious


I feel like this would be a good time to take a break and play some robot unicorn attack.

yo that games gets way majikal when you pass ~30K points in a single life. or wish.

I was trying to say it's understandable and not disgusting. I don't think it makes it ethical or right. I would rather have them deal with it by talking it out and finding a solution rather than killing each other.

I meant futile, I feel like I've made that mistake before too.

You can say they are absurd, but the other middle easterner who posted agreed with me, so I don't know if absurd is the right word.

i can understand why someone would cheer for the yankees. the yankees are still disgusting.

lol a poster on a public forum agreed with you. now you should have your claim nationally recognized and published

i can't deal with you dude, you really don't know what you're talking about.

Maybe i don't either, but at least i'm not making claims i cannot support and contradicting myself
