i have a iranian friend and he translated some of the things the ahmadinjad said and the isreal bit was a quote from a speech by ayatulla homeni . and he said if the palestinians and jews want to live in peace then you should get rid of the state of isreal and have a new democratic country where the jews and the palestinians shared power which sounds like a pretty good idea its better than them killing each other all the time . so he didnt refer to killing any jews just a clever idea on how they can live in peace.

According to Bible, you should forgive your enemy because God forgives your sin through Jesus. Also, another from Bible, if someone slap you, give the other cheek, means that if someone did something bad to you, you should forgive that person. Another extreme is from the New Testament, "Love your enemy", which is very hard to be done. However, will you be able to forgive your enemy at least?

I mean he went to Virginia Tech (expensive school), he had a car, he was able to rent a townhouse, he was able to buy a gun, he had a computer, digital video cam, digital camera. Don't you think he was rich kid too? Do you think he was a hypocrite?

the Iraq war began as an Invasion to topple Saddam Hussein from power. But now that Hussein and his sons are dead, American casualties continue to climb. Have not we learned from the Vietnam War that a coutry cannot be occupied without casualties? Why is Bush so stupid to force Americans in a war we cannot win?

It is WRONG.

Yes, I know all there is to know about isolation, not being accepted, sexual frustration and what not. I'm a multiracial man, 38 years old, and I've never had a romantic relationship or even a real friend. All I've had are acquaintances.

I'm a researcher and I've spent over 90% of my life after childhood on my own. I don't know what is going out with people, and I notice that everyone only hangs out, dates and marries only those who belong to their own "race."

So, as someone who is a mix of several "races," I find myself in the position where I don't fit anywhere and no one wants to be close to me. Which is ok with me, I've learned to enjoy my loneliness.

Yes, people taunted me and I was bullied because I'm very small. Yes, I've asked probably over 500 women out for a date and so far I still have to hear a "yes." Yes, I've been discriminated because I was poor, foreign and short when I was in high school and in college (I never had friends in either), but...

And the Liberal media tries to pass their mocking as "sharing in our sorrow." Who here believes mussies don't feel happy so many people died in the USA?

I don't want in any way to belittle the loss of the families of the VT students and professors killed by Cho. But CNN and Today and all the news shows can't do enough interviews with the families of these kids, while the kids the same age being killed in Iraq are mere footnotes.

And Iraq was avoidable.

i have received some mails from gun defenders and most of them said that it would have been worse (about virginia tech killings) had the killer placed a bomb...so it makes me wonder, is it bomb construction something everyone learns at school??? are the gun defenders just using irrational reasons to defend their guns???

Today Bush said "I will strongly reject an artificial timetable (for) withdrawal and/or Washington politicians trying to tell those who wear the uniform how to do their job," .

Minus the 'artificial timetable withdraw' part sense it is a "and/or" statement, he is part of the "Washington politicans" in my view, so he should back off on telling those in uniform what to do. Right?

I'm sick of seeing the idiots on tv tell us that if someone is black and poor they can say ANYTHING tlhey want to because it is art, but if you are white you better shut up. Does anyone think else think Imus was an artist? Just because he is white and wasn't jumping around on stage in a sweat suit grabbing his crotch and spitting in a microphone when he used the word "ho's" he got fired. Give me a major break!

I'm currently typing up my feature story for my journalism class (mine is about a local diner) (also, We had to go observe our person or place for the story.), and I'm not sure what word to put in this sentence to make it...complete.

"She takes it to a table, passing the ______ fireplace."

The fireplace I'm talking about is like not a real fireplace. It's this fake thing that looks like a real fireplace with a fire burning. What word would I put in there?
