The Arab / Israeli peace process should be abandoned

At the end of World War II, Britain withdrew its mandate over Palestine in order to allow for the creation of a homeland for the Diaspora, many of whom were traumatised as the result of the Holocaust. Noble as this cause was, the creation of Israel caused the mass displacement of the Arab families that already lived there and, furthermore, the Zionist architects of the Jewish State went well beyond the of the parameters of the Balfour Declaration of 1917, (1) not only depriving Palestinians o...
The U.S. Government Should Allow the Big Three Automakers to Go Bankrupt


1. Definitions. For the purposes of this debate, the "Big Three" are General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler.

That this house would ban all blood sports as a means of entertainment

Being Irish, the first things to come into my mind when i think about blood sports are fox hunting, hare coursing, dog fighting, and deer poaching. Each of these blood sports...
Homosexual marriage


Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, today I will share with you and my opponent the reasons why I believe homosexual marriage (and all homosexual rights alike) should be allowed. My opponent brian_eggleston , is a good debater whom I respect. Now Ladies and Gentlemen, I will begin debating. 1. Homosexuals should have the same rights as heterosexual (straight) Men and women. As the 9th amendment states "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or dispara...
