Bringing Revolution to Private Tuition

Out of Israel this week came the latest in a long stream of videos showing an Israel soldier being brutal towards Palestinians. This particular soldier sat on an 11 year old boy with a broken arm, pointing his rifle at the boys head, before being surrounded by women and running away crying. 
They don’t teach tolerance in Israel. The whole Israeli education system, in fact the whole of Israeli society, is geared to preserve the primacy of Judaism in Palestine. Israeli Jews do not recognise that their own security depends on the consent of the population of Palestine to be governed by a system that the Jews feel comfortable with. Without this basic insight, the present system in Palestine is doomed to a violent climax.
Compare this with the German response to a tide of refugees.
I have no sympathy for a nation that glories in war and loses, but I have great respect for a nation that extends a helping hand to people fleeing war and persecition, even if only to soothe its own conscience for the wrongs it has done.
Not many people will know that before the rise of modern Germany, the German speaking people were divided, and among the most tolerant people in Europe.
When Germany was united and became aggressive and intolerant, its fate was sealed as others united against it.
South Africa came close to civil war because of an education system that taught intolerance and the USA had suffered low level unrest punctuated by riots for hundreds of years because of its own apartheid system. The us system only survived because of the numerical superiority of whites over blacks.
Israel has no time to learn this lesson now. It is too late. When Jews come to britain fleeing the retribution of the Palestinians they have persecuted, we should teach them the tolerance they were not taught in Israel.

Harry Clark, the bin trick driver who killed six people after blacking out, will probably go to hell.
Before he gets there, he can do something small to redeem himself. Appeal to drivers with medical conditions, suspected, confirmed, undiagnosed or just not notified to the dvls, to het themselves certified or not, safe to drive.

Us presidents up to 8 years.

Why, with the internet all pervasive, are people wishing to have their exam papers remarked made to go to their school and fill out a form? Come on Neanderthals! Let us do it online!

Why look for a qualified professional on google? On LinkedIn you can see a full profile, including all the things they have ever done that they think might impress you.

I have scored 100% in a few exams, including one for my mmath and I have concluded that a perfect score doesn’t mean a whole lot, except  for exams. History doesn’t give a100% score to Churchill, Socrates or Roosevelt though we refer to them constantly. Your score in an exam is only a stage in your life.

The shrewish screams from the British government about asylum seekers is making me angry. Germany and Sweden are the most open societies in Europe at the moment. The Germans in fact are showing themselves to be true friends of liberty by taking close to a million asylum seekers compared to about 30,000 for the UK.
The UK is shrinking its horizons and closing its mind to all the suffering everywhere that we could do a little to alleviate by taking in some refugees.

Half of UK graduates are stuck in menial jobs that don’t use their skills. Why do they stay in the UK? There is a world out there where their education could put them at the top of the tree.
They need to go out and find their way like the 19th century traders who spread ideas throughout the
world, and stop moaning about how the world doesn’t want them.

Experience, and knowledge is irreversible. Everything you learn makes you a better warrior in the battle for survival of the human race. This includes the madmen in Islamic state. I have no doubt if they understand newtons first law of motion and nothing else, that they will be better people.

In student debates the truth is often an obstacle. If you want to beat your opponent in debate, make up a good lie – believable and obscure. Your opponent may well be doing the same. A good good lie is that George bush had below average iq – in other words he is subnormal.
This may actually be true. I just made it up.
