Should people be allowed to take over other peoples land just because they have guns and their victims don't?

Imagine a band of heavily armed religious zealots out on a cruise who stumble upon a land of milk and honey. It is already owned by others but "God" told the zealots to slaughter all the inhabitants and steal their land and live in it. As time went on they grew and grew and stole more and more land and even brought slaves from far away places to work the land for them because they were to lazy to work it themselves. Eventually the fanatics divided from the motherland and created their own country. As the guns got bigger and better they took more and more land. To justify all this they named their victims "Insurgents" or "Terrorists" because "God" was on the fanatics side and everything they did was right. They even have a "Department of Justice". They even sing a little song
"This land is your land,
This land is my land,
This land was made for you and me."
So, in the name of "Justice", should the fanatics be required to return the land they stole?

Will you pray for the hostages?

This is more of a request rather than a question actually. I just felt sick when I knew of the German hostages kidnapped in Iraq and scheduled to be killed in 10 days. Yahoo!Answers is the only way I can reach a huge number of people, besides my blog www.dustanddreams.blogspot.com to pray with me that their lives be saved. Whoever you are, whatever your religion or ethnicity, just pray with me their lives be saved.

Did you know time changes tonight?

Time is springing forward tonight here in the ole US of A. I didn't know and didn't believe it when I was told so by a family member, so I looked into it. Aparently Bush's Energy Policy Act of 2005 changed when the time changes.

It's almost a month early and not even spring yet, however will I remember without the old fall back and spring forward thing to remind me.

Oh, woe is me...

I am currently a La Crosse Tribune Food Section columnist. I need contacts to go national, can you help.?

I am an executive chef at a medical center in La Crosse, Wisconsin. I have been writing a column in the Sunday paper for four years and have a good following. I think the time has come to expand my column and go regional or national with my writing. I am looking for someone who can help me with contacts or has an interest in helping me along the way, for a percentage of the profits. I welcome all ideas and comments.

Should soldiers be punished for refusing to go to Iraq?

True they did voluntarily enlist, but they joined to defend their country.. is that what we are doing in Iraq? No WMD's after all, and now many feel it 's an illegal war, an occupation of their land to force our ways (democracy) on them, which many Iraqi don't want. I think our GI's should not be prosecuted for refusing on oral grounds, or else the government is forcing them to be immoral.

Do you think that Bill O'Reilly Lacks Compassion for Victims of Crime or Tragedies?

O'Reilly shot off his mouth about Shawn Damian Hornbeck, jumping to unwarranted conclusions before the whole story was reported and he recently decided to make a social or political point about the kids who died in the Bronx fire. Even Geraldo was frustrated by his colleague. Doesn't this guy, O'Reilly, have a bone of compassion in his body?
