Damn topical interview on the Israel/Lebanon conflict with Steve Nesser. Not the most politically deep guy on the planet, but interesting to hear nonetheless...

NESSER IS SICK !
-
I never knew he was Lebanese, anyway he seems like a nice guy and i hope his family stays safe. I guess the point is everyone is just living life and its a certain group of dickheads that think fighting will solve all the problems.
-
viva la liban, good to see a fellow countryman using his position to try to get a few kids informed.
-
Rad skater and he seems like good people.
-
Now that I think of it, this is a thread tailor made for Jesse.
-
"Nate: I Know tight knit family and friends is a strong part of Lebanese culture. Do you think if The USA had a better understanding of extended family we would not be as quick as a nation to jump on others who value the extended family?"
^^^What in the fuck is this guy yapping about? That question makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
-
what the shit do i care about what some skater thinks? give me an interview about the situation in barcelona and i'll read it, not something he knows nothing about.
-
I Think Steve is rad.
-
I think it is true the USA has no sense of family.
-
the question is just asking if nesser thinks the us would be acting differently if they took into consideration the hundredes of family members of us citzens that are being killed/injured...
-
hes got tribal tats and his name is steve
-
All I was saying is that it seemed like a brilliant question. I mean the USA is fed off of greed and power and the generic sense of family is to take grand ma to the old folk’s home and not take care of her. As opposed to Lebanon where it is custom to not move out till you are married and when your parents get to old to fend for themselves you take them in. I am not saying anything negative to you guys but it seems that Nate had a good grasp of what he was talking about or he would not have conducted the interview.

Nate Sherwood is a funny guy, really down to earth and happy, and would someone please clear it up with me why everyone hates on him? i really dont know why, what has he done to deserve the hatred he gets?
-
cause his style is bad.
i don't give a shit. i think hes a good person to have in the skate community.

the only thing i ever hear people hate for is "all he does is pressure flips" but really, thats his thing, so whats wrong with it? if hes having fun doing pressure flips, he should keep doing them.
-
There's nothing to hate about his skating, he never gets any coverage.

A few things...
I don't see how Nesser's comments could have raised even the slightest eyebrow concerning this matter. He is obviously of Lebanese decent and didn't have a bad thing to say about either. You sissies need to start finding other things to bitch about. If you don't know anything about the conflict in Iran and what is about to happen, you'd best start reading up:

Cliff notes: Iran, for years, has been doing nuclear reactor testing for national energy processing for a few years now. The USA, along with Russia, China, and other Eurpoean nations see Iran of the threat because of the obvious. But, Iran has made it clear in such instances as this:

interesting how you are referring to two sources with the most biased opinions out there...you shouldn't go there for proper information.

Who was asking the questions and were the disabled of regular in anyway ?
It has to be the worst interview i've ever read, it might have well been along the lines of
"Sooooo aaahhhhh, you come here often ?"

And it doesn't matter one bit.
Those are Lebanese character, It means "Tribal tats".

We don't give a shit about the thousands of troups that are away from their familys dying and coming home crippled why would we care about relatives of citizens. We obviously don't give two squirts of piss about people from other countrys dying or poor people dying. You don't have to look much further than Katrina to know that. Am I the only person who has noticed that an eqarthquack that kills thousands overseas gets lets media attention than some drunk slut that goes missing on vaction? You think if that girls name was laquisha they would still be making a big deal about her? People go missing and get shot up every night in Houston and it gets mentioned in passing on the news but if it's a white girl, they never stop blabing about it. No disrepect to the white girls, I'm married to one, but just the situation is fucked up. We don't care about the poor and we certainly don't care when foriegners die.

no shit, native kid and a white kid go missing/are kidnapped and theres only an amber alert for the little white kid.. that was like 3 days ago
-
Isn't this a Chris Rock stand up piece?
-

-

I think he hits the nail on the head most of the time but that post had nothing to do with him.
