The result of unregulated immigration and imposed 'multiculturalism'.
Sounds rather unpleasant for all concerned.

COMMENT
Wow, that was fun.
Started off looking for maps of Egypt when Ramesses III was around, and it sort of evolved from there.
Not sure that I'm up for all that reading. And I'm not sure I like Aristotle. Women and slaves aren't the problem.
All that 'virtue' stuff sounds unpleasant to me. Is there a third way?
Quickly skimmed the philosophy of ethics info. Not sure I'll remember much of it. But I'm not that hung up on ethics, so it doesn't matter. I'm inclined to think that you cannot have blanket ethics rules, because all things are not equal and each situation demands specific responses. I'm talking about affairs of the state types of situations (rather than everyday existence, which is probably automatic). That's my gut feeling, but I haven't really given this a whole heap of thought.
Also, I don't think 'nature' intended man to live in massive societies that consume and breed on a massive scale, and destroy nature for the enrichment of an elite few. But 'nature' probably doesn't 'intend' anything. Nature just is.
Might skim some of Aristotle's 'Politics' ... after I edit Ramesses III's GIF to my satisfaction, because it's an action that will result in greater good. And it's more fun. ;)

Chicken Korma
RECIPE
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
Gearing up to cook this chicken korma. Recipe went something like this: 1.5 cups natural yoghurt 1.5kg Chicken thighs, skinless 1 tsp nutmeg / black cardamom (mix stored) ground & stored as powder (in her kitchen)
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
The plan 1. trim chicken & set aside Steps Brown chicken (in pan in which onion was caramelised). Add ginger & garlic paste (or crush). Once chicken browned, add:
Add: 1 cup yoghurt (more for thicker gravy)Add: 1/2 cup yoghurt (ie balance yoghurt) 10 mins - cook off, covered add caramelised onion & stir through (thickening agent) cook off another 10 mins 1/2 tsp (unknown liquid ingredient) & turn off heat. *** SALT AT END, preferred (by me) *** COMMENT
Unknown ingredient doesn't matter, as it's not key.

COMMENT
I'm having trouble following what is going on (here and in some other article I looked at).
The US wants to bring down Assad and has aimed to do so since 2006 or earlier, the US arms and supports Islamist terrorists, the US refuses to co-operate with the Assad government re the ISIS terrorists ... but the US military supposedly (in opposition to the Obama administration) sends word via third parties (Russia, Israel and someone else, I think it was), providing information in order to assist the Assad government in their fight against ISIS terrorists?
Why do I have trouble believing any of this?
Maybe I'm tired, but none of this computes.
