The so-called "peace" prize has gone to terrorist Yasir Arafat and not to Ghandi who has been a greater inspiration for peace than anyone. It has gone to terrorist-loving Jimmy Carter and not to Ronald Reagan who dismantled mutually assured destruction. Calling it a peace prize is like nicknaming a tall guy shorty and a short guy stretch. Is the Norwegian parliament trying to say Al Gore is a terrorist?

Why did the police and other agencies deploy these tactics to make arrests this morning in Liverpool? What was wrong with the usual methods? Seemed a bit extreme

I happen to have some inside info that penguins are plotting to take over the world. I know that seems impossible but thats what they're counting on. What I need to know is how can one man stop an entire species from putting forth thier plans for global domination.

This is question from british residents and citizens. I moved in UK four months ago for my Msc. I came from Saudi Arabia, where there is no freedom of speech and I loved to be in UK. I liked democracy and freedom of thoughts in this country.But I am depressed to know that I can't speak of certain topics. Can someone let me know if I can express my following views in this country:
1. I am a peace loving person who is against any type and form of killing the innocent people. I feel for the people suffering around the globe. But I am against war on Iraq and Afghanistan. I feel it killing of innocent people. Can I say that if bin laden is behind 7/7 bombings he must be sentenced in front of victims families. Similarly mr. blair must be prosecuted according to british law as killer. There was no reason to invade Iraq. Secondly, I don't call the insurgents attacking coalition forces in Iraq as terrorists. If someone enters my home to kill me. I'll defend it anyway and kill one who broke in.

I went to an Anti-Bias Diversity Seminar this week at my kids pre-school (He goes to a Jewish Pre-School, we're Catholic). Everyone that attended were either really fat or lesbians and all they talked about was them being fat or lesbians and how they had to cope. I went because it was required for Parent Points. The instructor was the saddest person I have ever seen and seemed like she taught the class only to justify her insecurity and self social outcasting because she outed herself after being married with children 27 years ago. Why we must we attend a Diversity Class when all it is is a poor old me I am miserable, fat lesbian testimonial? Boo-Hoo. A wasted three hours of my evening that I could have spent reading to my Son. It was PC training for the PC. I could really care less if Jimmy's parents are Lesbians or fat. Great for them. If I want to eat steak and watch a hockey fight with my son good for me. Should I be ashamed that I'm a Average Good White Straight Republican? NO!

this church wanted to supply food and a place for the young people to enjoy the Super bowl game on a large screen T. V. N.F.L. is trying to stop this due to some legal rules. I think it stinks. they bring in millions and millions of dollars from so many areas and crowds are gathered in bars across our nation for the game and they are lousy enough to try and stop a church group from giving the young paople a place to gather and watch a game.

The National Intelligence Assessment today said the war in Iraq is a civil war. Several commentators are saying though that the situation is "more complex" and something like "We would be lucky if it were only a civil war." What do they mean by that?

As you know, he was in Florida in a classroom when Andy Coric whispers to him. It was at 9:05, 20 minutes after the first plane crashes into the first tower. But, he goes on with the speech to the kids like NOTHING happened. In December of hat year, he is asked in (I believe) asked how he felt about 9/11. He says he found out about it from a TV report which he saw OUTSIDE the classroom. But, the tapes of 9/11 were not shown till my birthday, the next day on September 12.
Could it be that Bush knew more about it than he says he does?

That place has been sinking since it was built - so why is everyone moving back there? It will flood again - so why take the risk? That's like living in "tornado alley" - why? When a tornado blows through and blows all your crap away - why do you cry? You live right in its path!!!! Am I being evil?

dr.Mohammad Naseen, Birmingham Central mosque says muslims are being labelled just as the jews were under Hitler and that the government is justifying its anti-terror laws to persecute them. I didnt know that jews were going round killing and blowing up people before the nazis put a stop to it??? Naseen states the UK is just like Nazi Germany. Now the muslims in the police force are expressing concern over the safety of their officers in the light of the recent allegations of plots to behead serving muslims (whether military or police).
So, naseen, who really are the nazis in the UK. What do others think?
