I watched a programme on BBC 1 a few weeks ago, I think it was called inside the Taliban or something like that. A journalist actually went and talked to some of the members and it was in one of the Talibans hideouts, in Afghanistan. If a normal British journalist can go in and talk to them , how come the military can't go and find them? I'm no expert on the war or anything but that programme puzzled me.

An "honor killing" is when a father, brother, or cousin of a girl kills the girl because they suspect that she has had sexual relations with a man. Even when tests confirm her chastity, she is still killed. The Islamic community seems to look the other way when this happens. Is forgiveness not part of the Islamic religion?
Why are they so intolerant?

There is no documented Marijuana related death but there is documented medicinal value to Marijuana, such as Glaucoma and Chemotherapy Sickness Treatment. If legal, the government could tax it for revenues and the cost of fighting crime would save the tax payers. Just want to know what is the real reason for this prohibition.

Hello, i met some people from scientology, and they have a lot of media-coverage, like Tom Cruise and others as media-idols for scientology. In Germany scientolgy is in 1 line with al-qaida and are officially labeled Terror-elements, so in Germany Scientology is forbidden.

What is scientology, a cult, a true religion, or are they just making money , for asking enourmous amounts of money for their lessons ?

PS: no offence to scientology, just wondering...

The CNN reporter asked a very unappropriate question to VP Dick Cheney about his gay daughters' baby.

I have a feeling that they are MAGNIFYING the disasters and omitting the progress and successes regarding our side in order to help hype the sensationalism. After all, what helps to sell the story!

Due to who we as America are dealing with over there(insurgents) AT THIS POINT- alot of them are capable of gleening "the news" that we are bombarded with daily(the world has gotten smaller in this area).

I would think that the insurgents are a clever lot and realize that this kind of lopsided coverage is to their advantage.

What we may be doing in the long run is shooting ourselves in the foot!-Don't forget about the 3000 lives lost in NY in a matter of hours.


comments/ideas ?

I need to find information on those most directly involved in the war such as soldiers, protest groups, military leaders and other civilians that directly impact military actions.

I've watched the Wolf Blitzer interview of Cheney (not one of my favorite people) and cannot believe that the question concerning his daughter and her pregnancy was even asked. This is irrellevant and trivial when compared to other subjects discussed and is so personal a matter that it is almost blatant harassment of Cheney by Blitzer, IMO. What disturbs me most is that this is a trend in our news services. The 'question' is now being exhaustively reviewed and critiqued on many TV channels. We get more fluff, like who's divorcing whom, or who's not wearing panties in some crotch shot from Hollywood and who's blowing coke that there isn't time enough left for real news analysis. Is anyone else as tired of this as I am? Does anyone else consider not allowing their children to watch the news? Does anyone else want to see 'hard' news and have quality analysis of it like I do? Maybe I'm alone? Please comment about how you feel about this.

He asked about her pregnacy. Apparently she is unmarried.
How could he?
