sometimes the only way to end problems is with war. Why can't they just accept that?

Is it ok to be bad if someone else is worse? I'm wondering specifically about the Jena 6. Supporters of the Jena 6 admitting six people ganged up to beat up one person. Basically, they say it's no big deal because the victim deserved it: that the victim did something even worse. Is that really appropriate logic?

...no more from me this evening, but would like to leave you with this and ask your opinions on it's wisdom becasue it seem very pertinent;

Just be ordinary and nothing special. Eat your food, move your bowels, pass water, and when you're tired, go and lie down. The ignorant will laugh at me, but the wise will understand.

I kiss you. MWAH!

There is a saying: Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
It seems to me that we could have avoided World War Two, the Holocaust, and all that destruction, if someone would have had the balls to launch a pre-emptive strike on Hitler in ’37 or ’38 while he was still pretty weak. Instead, we had Europeans with their “negotiations” and “diplomacy”, with Neville Chamberlain saying “Peace in our time”.

So why does everyone now despise Bush for doing that very thing? People howl and moan about “pre-emptive” war? Let’s not forget that Saddam used WMD’s on his own people and on the Iranians. And for you college kids, don’t forget that in the 80’s the Israelis bombed a nuclear plant in Iraq because Saddam WAS trying to develop a nuke. (I hope they bomb the Iranian plant next.)

I understand that entertainment news has its place, and that many are fascinated with celebrities, but it seems inexplicable how inane stories that do not affect our lives can be front page breaking news - even on cnn.com.

Should the media take responsibility for what content is highlighted or is it legitimate for them to just cater to what people are most interested in?

It makes no sense to me when huge lawsuits (for example the one against the woman who downloaded songs that is the news) are filed against someone who will never have that kind of money. It 's like if someone sued me for millions, well they would never get it as I don't even make 10k a year. Why do people and companies waste their time suing for something they will never get?

TEHRAN, Iran — Millions of Iranians attended nationwide rallies Friday in support of the Palestinians, while the country's hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Israel's continued existence was an "insult to human dignity."
