+1 for Israel.

It's certainly not the burgers from America though, nor the island monkeys nor the overrated blond junkies(scandinavia).

And definitely NOT the biggest land mass: Russia. Other than big in land mass it's also known as a home of the alcoholic Ivan and "that country that lost the cold war".

I did, and the OP is lying. The thread went on for months, and basically stopped. There was no mention of that person, at least not when the thread was active. And no one knows that person.

And anyone who thinks that Israel, a tiny country of a few million people with little geographic significance, producing fairly little, and not particularly wealthy, is "the most powerful country in the world" is either completely ignorant or a raging anti-semite. It's just a few million Jews surrounded by angry third world Muslim states.

Careful NOLA. This doesn't concern any half-baked anti-semitic conspiracy theories that "Jews are plotting to take over the world". The ideas are more within the area of ontology and require some amount of abstractification.

What are you even saying here? You're mis-using irrelevent English words. Are you mis-using Google translate or something?

Again, if someone thinks that Israel is the most powerful country in the world, then they're either a paranoid anti-Semite or have been living in a cave. It's a minor country.

Ontology is relevant here because it concerns cultural and political forces that transcend national boundaries and cultural identities. One could argue that it's the only context in which Israel makes sense in a geopolitical framework.

The idea is abstract because it is based on a functional assessment of a nation's power and influence that transcends concrete thinking-based measurements of power, such as population, natural resources, economic and military might.

How the hell can you be ANTI semite when you say Israel is the best country in the world? 0_0
With such logic if I say the opposite: that Israel sucks and is full of sneaky jews then I should be anything but antisemite? I think the bigger question here is whether you're troll or just genuinely dumb.

I'm not an anti-Semite. I don't love Israel but that doesn't make me an anti-semite. My girlfriend is half Jewish not including the fact that at least a 3rd of the community I live in is jewish

The only reason Israel exists is because of the US. So how can Israel be more powerful than the US?

The OP is obviously a troll. The US is the most powerful country in the world, followed by China.

But in the end it's not just about countries, as the same people who run the States also run Western Europe.
