WE NEED MORE OF THIS TYPE OF BACKBONE IN THIS COUNTRY.......I for one am very proud of 7-11 for taking this approach and now I know where I will be getting my Slurpees from.

Imagine the oppression, victimisation, stealing of land, killing of civilians carried out by the fake state of Israel against the Palestians.

How far would a people have to be pushed before certain individuals amongst them would give their own lives to seek some revenge as "suicide bombers" and show they will not lay down to be murdered, raped and abused?

When will you fools wake up and realise Israel owns your media, runs your government and everything on your news is thinly veiled propaganda?

-Taken from an article on yahoo news-

"WASHINGTON - The White House refused Wednesday to release in full a previously secret intelligence assessment that depicts a growing terrorist threat and has fueled the election-season fight over the Iraq war. Press secretary Tony Snow said releasing the full report, portions of which President Bush declassified on Tuesday, would jeopardize the lives of agents who gathered the information. "

I don't know, seems a little suspicious to me.

Nothing against Rita Cosby. She's a fine reporter. But that voice of hers is. . .unique. If somebody would have told me years ago that she would one day be a reporter for MSBC, I would have rolled my eyes and laughed. Is anybody else thinking the same thing?

I was watching her on TV some time back and the person she was interviewing had to ask her, several times, to repeat herself because he could'nt understand her. I'm sure people have been asking the samething and I'm sure there is a good answer. Please help me understand.

Why is everyone so caught up on being so racist when our planet is coming to an end. Ice caps melting and tropical storms. Doesn't anyone care about the real problems? Am i the only one who can see God is trying to tell us something?

Today my mother came from Israel and told me and my father that a woman was interviewed to the Israeli TV (or radio, I'm not sure) and asked (about state president, Katzav, who is accused of sexually hraasing women, and Prime minister Olmert, who is accused in involvment in bribery, or something): "Doesn't our nation deserve better leaders?" But actually, what other political leaders does a state-acting as the US political whore, whose media preaches hatered-deserve?
