Yeah, keep on believing everything you read in the paper. Become the puppets of the media. When people listen to everything they read or see, they are evidently deceived and are not being told the full truth. Take, for example, the recent photographer from reuters- a um...respectable source of news photos- who was just let go bcause he doctored images to make them look like Israel had dropped huge bombs on lebanon. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060806/ts_nm/mideast_reuters_dc And: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/5254838.stm

Or did you ever see the fake funeral the muslims held? They carried a "dead" person that the "Israelis Killed" on a stretcher in a huge mobbed funeral. Except, of course, the person fell off the stretcher mid-march and CLIMBED BACK ON! It was even caught on tape! http://www.factsofisrael.com/blog/archives/000012.html

Did you know that Hezbollah offers "guided tours" to photographers in which they stage scenes of death 'caused by Israel'? Yep! They

Well I find myself upset at the state of the world. Yet in my current position what can I really do about it? Well, this past Monday I was out for lunch and I saw a young Arabic woman waving a flag (it was colorful like a rainbow and had PEACE written on it) celebrating peace on our Red mile.
I came across a case study:
The effect of transcendental meditation vs. the crime rate of a city
It was found as the group of people increased the percentage of violent crimes (homicides, rapes and assaults) were decreasing.
Using this information I have tried to come up with a possible solution, where I may be able to be apart of a positive change and a brighter future for us all. What if 7 million people together meditated on peace? If peace inner and outer was our cause, what would the global effect be?

I'm from the UK but I watch Fox News sometimes just for a laugh. But anyway my question is, in between of the Bush-cheerleading, there are always loads of reports about new health and medical related technologies. There's nothing wrong with that, but there seems to be a report every 10 minutes about some new thing that can stop obesity or heart attacks or whatev. It seems a bit obsessive. What is the reason for it?

Pat Robertson has gone to Israel to be a cheerleader (just like Bush was a cheerleader) for the IDF as they bomb Lebanon back to the Middle Ages. But wait! Now, after saying that they would refuse to sign an agreement at the UN, the Israelis are making noises about signing an agreement. Why? Come on; what's wrong with a bloodbath for Jesus!
Did Jesus Christ tell the Israelis to stop? Why would they stop for him; they're Jewish! Does that mean Pat Robertson went to Israel for nothing? Can he ask Jesus for a refund on his airplane ticket? Does this mean that The Rapture will be delayed and all those southern red-state Christians which Karl Rove loves so much will not be swept into heaven, and that the Jews will not immediately convert to Christianity?
I'm really getting tired of Jesus delaying the Second Coming for so long. I have been waiting for a long time, and Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, Tim Lahay and Jerry Jenkins have made millions getting me to believe that Jesus would come.

Isn't it a strange coincidence that today's announcements occurred during Cindy Sheehan's protest in Texas? I think not. They will do anything to take attention away from her just cause.

Without Bushs vigilance and Blairs understanding of why he is so vigilant this operation would not have been thwarted.

Israel has attacked Lebanon unilaterally. It has used the excuse that “Hezbollah” had abducted two of its soldiers while there are thousands of Palestinians and Lebanese prisoners in Israeli jails. Israel has deliberately killed UNO observers without any fear of punishment from UNO and any other nation. Bush and Blair are fully supportive of Gross and State Israeli terrorism against the Christian and Muslim civilians of Lebanon. When Israel has attacked Lebanon, the question arises that where is the Lebanese army. Is it not fighting with Israeli army? Or all those who are fighting Israeli aggression is branded as Hezbollah so that Israel’s ally and agent Hezbollah gets credit and a picture of war is created and where Israel is portrayed as innocent & oppressed nation despite being the World’s number 1 Terrorist country. The Zionist terrorism encompasses all spheres of life including monetary terrorism, cultural ðical terrorism, judicial terrorism and medical and media terrorprism

If you were a terrorist...YES, A TERORIST...what would you have acomplished by blowing up multiple airlines en route from London to US, that you couldn't acomplish by just detonating and blowing yourself up in a large crowd...where there are more people and more to kill ??

Does terrorism in the sky symbolize something?
Is the goal to bankrupt the US, and a good start is to start with airlines?
...why go thru all the trouble to do this in the sky???
