They created a terror hoax in Boston. I heard the penalty can be up to 5 yrs in prison per incident. That's 45 years. But who would serve it?? What do you want to see happen to punish them for this stupid act?

Participate in the biggest mobilization of Citizens Against Global
Warming!

The Alliance for the Planet [a group of environmental associations]
is calling on all citizens to create 5 minutes of electrical rest for the planet.
http://www.lalliance.fr
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20070119/sc_afp/unclimatefrance

People all over the world should turn off their lights and
electrical appliances on the first of February 2007, between 1.55 pm and 2.00 pm in New
York, 18.55 for London, and 19.55 for Paris, Bruxelles, and Italy. 1.55pm in Ottawa,
10.55am on the Pacific Coast of North America; 12.55 in Saskatoon!

This is not just about saving 5 minutes worth of electricity; this
is about getting the attention of the media, politicians, and
ourselves.

Five minutes of electrical down time for the planet: this does not
take long, and costs nothing, and will show all political leaders that global
warming is an issue that needs to come first and foremost in political debate.

Why

Don't try to be a brilliant comedian and say something like "you can't write a positive story about a Democrat." Every 6 year old has tried that already.

Are Labour a cynical machine trying to distract the British puplic into accepting this new way of life. After 6 months surveillence, they suddenly decide to go go in and make arrests!.
Leave Lord Levy aside for now, that will be back later, but can we trust this Home Security plan to save our lives!?.

Canada is the largest supplier of energy to the U.S.
Canadian visits to the U.S. alone are far greater than from any other country.
Canada-U.S. trade directly supports 5.2 million U.S. jobs.
Canada is the number one export destination for 38 U.S. states (2005).
Canada was the first US ally to deploy to the Northern Arabian Sea/Persian Gulf after 9/11.
The United States Government has awarded 30 US Bronze Stars to Canadian service personnel in the War on Terror.

I dont think that just because you have money you should be able to avoid criminal penalties for your actions.I know several people who killed someone in a car accident and did prison time and it was not due to drunk driving either.just a unfortunate accident.So what do you guys think?

I bet some people even forgot about Bin Laden. After 9/11 Bush said that he was going to find Bin Laden dead or alive. After some months no one could find him or even knew where he was. So what does Bush do, he bombs Afgan. He still can't find him so he tries to link Bin Laden to Saddam. No one could find weapons of mass destruction and what does Bush do. Starts another war with Iraqi leading to the deaths of many innocent civilians and American soldiers for no reasonable reason. The war in Afgan is still going on but its not reported on the news. I guess you can only cover one war at a time. When Irasel was fighting Lebanon thats all they showed they didnt cover the Iraqi war. Maybe Bush or the government is using Bin Laden as an excuse to try to take over the middle east.

ways?

From the way I see it it was the failure of Republican foreign policies in the Mid-east over the last sixty years that caused them do start calling us "The Great Satan" to begin with and to burn our flags that the Republicans sold to them for top price!!!!!!!
