Conscientious objectors should be obliged to make the same sacrifices as conscripted soldiers
The leader of one nation to another: "You should, like, chill out, man. Instead of invading my country, why not light an ethically-sourced soy-wax scented candle, make a nice cup of organic Fairtrade jasmine tea and attain inner peace through holistic meditation?

I'm sure that if they advertised the fact their stores were Jewish owned, the public would make a point of favouring them with their custom more often. The trouble is, as well as not caring about money, Jewish businessmen are very mo...
