instead of US dollars, will the US invade?

( Saddam switched to euros in 2000 (and later converted his $10 billion reserve fund at the UN to euros) and the euro gained 17% against the depreciating dollar. Iraq was invaded to put in place a government that would stifle OPEC's movement towards the euro, keeping the dollar as the standard oil currency. Iran is OPECs second largest producer and if it switches to the euro, the dollar will crash.
Perhaps this is the reason for the Iraq war - the axis of evil isnt terrorism per se, but American bankruptcy.)

I would love to be able to finanically suport the IDF or just the people, but I can barely afford rent on my itty bitty apt. I wish there was a HUGE "kick their facist butts" card we could all sign and send to them. I feel so helpless, and restless. I am sure they feel like the whole world is against them. How many countries would stand for even one missle targeting their people. Israel has had thousand fall. And people have the audacity to tell them to be patient. The last time someone attacked us in this manner we dropped two nulcear bombs on their country. And nobody whined about the "kilt children then" nobody told us to "be patient with the Taliban" Hizballah is like all terrorists. Israels enemies are all terroists. I just wish I could help. Any Ideas????

You're about to board the plane when suddenly you see 4 to 5 Arab, Muslim or Islamic looking men also on the same flight. What do you do? Do you walk away and catch another flight or do you say the hell with it and get on board anyway?

I saw a picture the other day that was in newspapers the day after 9/11. It was of a firefighter climbing the stairs in one of the Trade Towers. He had a 28 on his helmet and badge # 12898. anyone know if this courageous man made it out?

Even in the photographs, there is more documentation of Lebanon's families and citizens walking around "enjoying their weekend". It seems that the majority of pictures of Israelis are of Israeli soldiers or Israeli tanks and bombs...but the pictures of Lebanese and Hezbollah portray injured people and destroyed buildings.

There is little documentation of the conflict hurting Israel or any Israelis.

Certainly Hezbollah (not to mention HAMAS) have been busy....killing Israelis and levelling their cities.

Why is it being reported with such an obvious Hezbollah-Lebanon-Iran bias?

I live in Cleveland and the it's an up and coming city but I don't understand why they wanted to come here to Ohio. They attacked New York because the World Trade Center was a very important economic building to the U.S., but Cleveland isn't economically important or anything like that.
