Give me civilization. I ordsprog

en Give me civilization. I don't want to be pampered.

en The Siege of Western Civilization has become an international bestseller. One reason is that its host and narrator, Herb Meyer, provides the clearest possible explanation of what the War on Terrorism is about--and of why our armed forces are fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. Right now, when so many Americans are questioning the war, we believe its message is more important than ever. And we want to give members of our armed forces--and their families--some 'ammunition' to defend themselves against the war's critics. They're the people who are on the front lines defending our civilization, and we've decided that making The Siege of Western Civilization available to them for free should be our way of expressing our appreciation.

en Judaism is a civilization. It has history, culture, literature. It has jokes, ... Part of any civilization is its religious beliefs, and so part of Judaism is the religion of the Jew, but they are not the same thing.
