i think a lot of muslim children feel a little scared to go to school, they're always thinking about what others may be thinking about them.

also, don't you think children of other religions pick up negative vibes from the media about muslims in general?

it sounds like a vicious circle.

What about your body liquids after all urea has chemicals i.e ammonia that can be use as explosive. The skeptic in me tells me this is nothing more than a big media event. Just when there was a one day lull in the war in Lebannon. Here comes another big media event. Seems to me the cops would want to arrest these guys quietly and then buid a case with strong evidence and not cause the hype and chaos they have now that we are all gonna die of thirst while flying.

Well, I got alot of answers and feedback from everyone. Everyone has a different view on this matter. What makes me laugh is that alot of people on here assume that being an illegal immigrant means lazy and freeloader. Now, I will be the first to admit that Yes, there are some smoochers living off our hard earned money while they sit at home and watch "JOSE LUIS SIN CENSURA", but same can be said about the 'american' than gets welfare and sits at home watching "JERRY SPRINGER." Don't make your judgement based on the bad apples. There are alot of good illegal folks out there that earn an honest dollar to support the family. What always crosses through my mind is :Isn't it amazing how we are allowed to go into other countries and expect to be welcomed just because we're "americans" ? And to that comment that it has never been posted on this site that immigrants are not welcomed, I ask you to look twice. Alot of characters on here that post. Its a free country I know, get educated 1st. :)

I am looking to ship a package oversseas to a soldier fighting in Afghanistan. He would like lots of choclate! Is the heat out there harsh enough for it to melt in transit? If so, what can I pack it with to keep it cold enough to stop it from melting, because obviously... regular ice would not work! Any suggestions?

Why isnt the lebanese army fighting off the Israeli attacks in southern Lebanon? We hear a lot from attacks from the Hezbolah milita but practicaluy nothing about the national army. Are they holding back for some reson?

Have you seen this? How can this be legal. It's so
obvious even to a lay person like me that this stuff is doctored. How are we supposed to know what's true on the news and what is made up? i guess i am more naive than i thought. i mean i knew that the media was biased... DUH..but to delibrately fake photos?
Does this shock anyone else? Why or why not?

I didn't want to start this but I had to speak my mind on this. I have seen alot of messages being posted on here regarding the immigration laws. "Illegals get out, you are taking jobs away from Americans" (quoted).Some people even calling it "THEIR" land. To those people, I laugh at your ignorance. When did YOU purchase this country? The day a so called 'poor american' takes a job out on the fields, working for pennies a day is that day anyone can say that illegal immigrants are not needed. Until, then (the poor trailer trash guy, or anyone else who wants to call themselves a "Poor American") that I see off the freeway offramp begging for money should learn to see themselves first and what has become of their poor pathetic lives. Illegals here pick up the slack that the 'american' people will not due. Just as LEGAL people have the opportunity to live life as a free human bieng, shouldn't they get the chance to live as well ?????????

Why some Israelis think that Iranians and Syrians have connections with terrorist groups? Why is this such a general assumption in Israel? I think the media coverage should be blamed for because some channels and media coverage is biased against Arabs other channels biased against Israel, and the media coverages affect people and their thoughts, and it seems that Israelis are so sensitive about that.... Why do you think are they sensitive?

Since Muslims will not eat pork, maybe requiring every person passing a securlity checkpoint to eat a 2 cent chunk of ham would keep dangerous radical islamists off the plane. Those who decline on religious grounds could be given an alternate means of proving their peaceful intent.

Let me get this straight, if a person who is christian kills, rapes or does some atrocity - goes to church to his priest and into the confession box, says 'father i have sinned....' the priest says 'say so many hail maries and your sin will be forgiven'. Isnt he a sin eater and isnt he the one going to go to hell for all the sins which HE himself cleanses off the people who sinned? (while the real sinner gets off scot free and ends up in haven). If this is true, then no wonder there are so many crimes in the world. Am I right in this assumption?
