Jews do not observe the Sabbath, they observe Shabbat. Sabbath is an entirely Christian word.
And look at the differences between their articles on Fatah and Hamas. The Hezbollah article makes no mention of their rebuilding efforts in Lebanon after the 2006 war.

I just looked up D-Day on there one after you wrote that ... if i had ever worried about the realaibty of the wiki articles ... i would take them over any of the crap on that site (the unecylopedia is propably more reliable).
British forces at Juno faced light resistance thanks to bombardment by the Allied Navy.
:rolleyes:
When the planes were flying to their drop zones, they ran into some cloud cover. Naturally, their formations spread apart because the pilots were afraid they would collide with other planes.
:rolleyes:
Ok so is this site serious?

Beatnik is a term for an anti-materialistic culture of people in the late 1950s analogous to hippies a decade later. The term was coined by Herb Caen on April 2, 1958 in an article in the San Francisco Chronicle. He modified an earlier, more positive term Beat Generation and added the -nik suffix from Sputnik, which had launched in the prior six months.
Beatniks were associated with poetry and jazz. Jack Kerouac's novel "On the Road" was viewed by many as the beat generation's manifesto.
Complete bullshit. Kerouac is responsible for "Beat Generation", and they don't even mention that "Beatnik" is a derogatory term. They're called the Beats and nothing but.

World War II, pronounced World War Aye Aye, all started because a cranky Australian named Adolf Hitler wouldn't permit his gay priest to get a piece of the fondling action. Coincidentally Hitler's priest was also jewish, which insulted Hitler further. After his mom died and he had no money to mooch off of, he was eventually forced to join the Bavarian army in World War I. Things really escalated when someone stole Hitler's adopted military doggie. All of this resulted in one of the few sequels that was better than the first.
I was really confused then... From Dramatica.

Dramatica and Uncyclopedia are quite clearly humor sites. What scares me is that Conservapedia isn't.

It was only a matter of time before Conservatives created a filtered, family-friendly, pro-Bush wiki of their own. Like Stephen Colbert said once "And reality has a well-known liberal bias".

"One cannot wage war under present conditions without the support of public opinion, which is tremendously (and wrongly) molded by the press and other forms of propaganda (http://www.conservapedia.com/Propaganda)."
--Douglas MacArthur (http://www.conservapedia.com/Douglas_MacArthur)
The daily historical quote. I find that I like MacArthur now.

MacArthur knew how to throw a party, no doubts about that, but politically and socially he was just a douchebag. The big warrior-generals of that era often were, because they didn't know how to handle the press like generals today do. They fought on Napoleonic terms in a time when the world was experiencing a revolution in Communications. However, MacArthur did have his moments when he strongly supported the United Nations and strongly opposed the military-industrial complex.
If we're going to play the quote game:
"It is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificially induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant propaganda of fear."
I'm of the opinion that the press MacArthur is referring to is closer to Fox News than al-Jazeera or MSNBC.
