I have one on my car and it was stolen recently. I think we can support the troops without supporting the war. The troops are simply doing their job. They don't have the luxury of quitting, if they do they lose their right to own land or a gun in the US due to a Dishonorable dicharge, and forget finding a job.

just read a response off an American I quote "I envy English people. Life seems to be better there than in the U.S. I know crime and poverty is everywhere, but really, really bad things seem to happen to the U.S. that don't happen to other countries (such as England). I know the subway bombing was pretty bad, but that's one example and happened over a year ago. How many subway bombings happen in the U.S.? One a day, a week? Too many, if you ask me.
I also envy English weather.
Overall, I like English people. Have no beefs with them."

Is this true and if so who is responsible?

I mean, what will it take for the nation to wake up and get pissed off? This is absolutly disgusting! The Bush administration OWNS the United States because we let them.

i am thinking that world war 3 will start
these are my reasons:
1-iran told israel to beware because the arabs are united now and will go and help lebanon
(iran has the best guns and stuff like that)
2-israel told syria that they will hit a part of it
thats why iran lebanon and syria will unite together and make a war with israel sooner (thats what they said)and maybe other arab countries will help
and for this USA will go and help israel
so do you think this will be a worldwar?

We negotiate only when we believe that we can achieve better results negotiating than not negotiating. Negotiations are a means, not an end. They can be a good or a bad idea. I recalled that as I heard Israel criticized for not negotiating with Hamas or Hezbollah. What good can come from that?

Negotiations are frequently used as offensive weapons or subterfuge. The losing side calls for negotiations as a way to avoid defeat. Terrorists and revolutionaries use negotiations as a way to divide their enemies and create doubt among them. (Dictators and killers can be very charming, as Che and Fidel showed us, and let's not forget uncle Joe or that sweetie Mao) This is what Hamas or Hezbollah are doing now and they dupe plenty of people, the same sort that would have praised Stalin or hailed "peace in our time". Hamas and Hezbollah have stated that their goal is to destroy Israel. What concession can Israel make? Is there a point to negotiation or will better results be achieved w/o them until conditions change? If Israel’s existence is not something that Israel will negotiate away and if the stated goal of Hamas or Hezbollah is to destroy Israel, on what basis can they talk?

(There is also the problem of unequal or inappropriate negotiations. The obvious case of this is N. Korea’s demand for bilateral negotiations with the U.S. This is the principle of the hot potato. Someone throws a hot potato in your lap and if you work with it, it becomes your problem. A good negotiator does not accept other people’s hot potatoes.)

You cannot always achieve optimal results. Sometimes you just have a bad situation. Sometimes negotiations can improve that situation, sometimes not, and sometimes negotiations can make things worse. Negotiations with Saddam produced negative results. British and French negotiations with Hitler made the situation very much worse. Jews learned this lesson the hard way. Negotiation with people whose goal is to kill you and everyone related to you is not a good idea. Hitler stated his goal clearly in "Mein Kampf". Appologists said he didn't really mean it. Hamas and Hezbollah state their goal just as clearly. When will we learn to take such threats seriously?

I am disturbed by the threat of war in the Middle East. But let's be clear about who is responsible. It is Hamas and Hezbollah along with the Syrians and Iranians. We are faced with an ideology that uses terrorism as a preferred tactic. We are in the same boat as the Israelis. They just are closer to the storm.

The mysterious 'rescue worker' (who obviously isn't a rescue worker):

This dude has actually managed to rescue a girl from the rubble 3 hours AFTER she's been photographed dead in an ambulance.

The staged collapse of the building in Kana (Hezbollah blew it up themselves and used bodies of people that had been dead for days!):
http://web.israelinsider.com/Articles/Diplomacy/8997.htm

Kind of reminds me of the socalled Gleiwitz radio station incident on august 31st 1939 that the Nazis had staged in order to 'justify' their attack on Poland.

I have a big problem. It has been foretold thousands of years ago of my second coming. now that I am here, I am seen as a mental patient where ever I go and nobody believes that I am God in flesh. I was sent down from heaven as it is time for me to release you from your sins but you are all ignorant sheep and do not want me to save you. You go and pray in churches, mosques and temples of all sorts, you all pray for the same God, me, yet when I am here, you want to put me in an asylum. May the wrath of YOUR FATHER be upon you. What will happen next?

We are informed that Israeli rockets are destroying buildings and the environment and are killing young people and women, but not soldiers! How often do they do this? Does Israel did it before? Do you think Israel is doing well exterminating innocent people?

Iraqi Christians are being forced out of their homeland once again. Before the Iran-Iraq War there were over 2 million Iraqi Christians in Iraq and over 100,000 in Iran. Iran now has less than 10,000 Assyrians. They are also known as Chaldean Catholics. They have been in Iraq since the times of Noah. Biblically they are thought to have descended from Ashur the son of Shem who was the son of Noah. They speak Aramaic as their native tongue, not Arabic. It is believed that Abraham was an Aramaean.

I feel sorry for the dude. I suppose, looking at the photographs of the ever incresing destrucion of Lebanon and mounting death of women and children (720 to date),he burst out. Insulting any other group (Jews are a religious group, not a race) , French, German, Irish, Latinos, Catholics, Muslims, would have been OK. But insulting Jews, even if you are drunk at the time, is far more serious and the courts will no doubt punish him accordingly.

I suppose, even if the courts had no proof and did nothing, no doubt the Jews controlling the film making industry would see to it that he got no more work. Good bye career.

His offence is nearly as bad as denying the holocaust. Denying the existence of God is OK, but denying the holocaust is a serious crime.

Have you learned your lesson to be careful in future?

All this about murdered children and women! What about the school bus full of children the PLO attacked?! What about hijacked planes and the thousands of Lebanese citizens killed at the hands of Yasser Arafat and the PLO? Anyone see the movie Munich? The Lebanese government has "proudly" supported their terrorist group Hizbollah and continues to do so. And as far as your "innocent" women and children;
