I just can't figure out why America has supported him for so long. Has he done anything for America? Lets put Iraq aside for the moment. I am from New Zealand, a country that has no nuclear power stations, nuclear weapons, have a female Prime minister who has been in term for 9 years, have no security issues(as we dont support Iraq) and are living happily at the 'bottom' of the world wonder why your country has gotten itself into a state as this.

U.S. Strikes Iraq for Plot to Kill Bush

By David Von Drehle and R. Jeffrey Smith
Washington Post Staff Writers
Sunday, June 27, 1993; Page A01

U.S. Navy ships launched 23 Tomahawk missiles against the headquarters of the Iraqi Intelligence Service yesterday in what President Clinton said was a "firm and commensurate" response to Iraq's plan to assassinate former president George Bush in mid-April.The attack was meant to strike at the building where Iraqi officials had plotted against Bush, organized other unspecified terrorist actions and directed repressive internal security measures, senior U.S. officials said. Clinton, speaking in a televised address to the nation at 7:40 last night, said he ordered the attack to send three messages to the Iraqi leadership: "We will combat terrorism. We will deter aggression. We will protect our people." Clinton said he ordered the attack after receiving "compelling evidence" from U.S. intelligence officials that Bush had been t

My Aunt was shot and killed in a convienent store robery 22 years ago, and I was wondering if there would be any way on the web to research this, If there is a chance that there is information on a case that happened that long ago. I know the county in which it happened and I know some of the details sounding the death, but I would like to know more about it, she was a favorite Aunt but a lot of the family does not talk about it because it is a hush hush thing very hurtful which is understandable, but I would like to know more about the case itself. Can someone please help me.

Serious answers please.

The media has been making a huge deal over the 'botched' hangings. The goal of hanging is to provide just enough rope to break the neck and sever the spinal cord.

Given the fact the goal is death, and more specifically a quick death, I'm at a loss what the big deal is that he was decapitated and the hanging was 'botched'. Messy, definitely. Horrific? Sure, but they were KILLING him, after all.

(By the way, I'm on the fence about supporting the death penalty or not, but I'd rather not discuss that in this post.) I'm curious about your opinions on this. Maybe you have some insight into why this 'botched' execution is deserving of the attention it is getting? Or, maybe you agree with me and question why it is such a big deal?

I do give out 'Best Answers", it will go to someone who put some thought into what side he or she is on and thoughtful discussion. Interesting society we live in today, no doubt...

This number is three times the death toll caused by Saddam. Saddam was hanged for crimes against humanity. What should we do with Bush? This is a blatant crime against humanity.

As Chancellor, GORDON BROWN has:-
Handed the power to control our economy to non-elected bankers (control of interest rates), creating the most debt ridden society ever, in the history of Britain.
Increased overall taxation to extortionate levels (up 80%).
Used underhand methods of taxation (stealth taxes).
Raided the pension funds of millions of workers.
Penalised married couples by removing their married tax allowance.
Supported Blair’s Iraq debacle (which has resulted in thousands of deaths, and wasted billions of pounds of taxpayer's money), Supported all the other disastrous Blairite policies.
With a record like his, surely he deserves to be booted out of office, not given the job of Prime Minister?
