i cant believe that some people still think that the 9/11 was not a set up from the americans them selves... and the PEOPLE who discovered that are actually americans and they did show the exact way in different documenteries ive seen ... that is not an excuse for american forces to invade other lands for their own benifits... arent they terrorists? or is it just arabs and muslims who are? americans have always been racists .. EVEN BETWEEN EACH OTHER!!! between black people and white people.. people from different states.. Racism is in americans BLOOD.. they cant live without it .. in islam there is no racism wat so ever..

K so there are 2 serial killer out in AZ and recently the serial shooter has been attacking here in Mesa, AZ. The other day it was late night past 11pm and I was going to Wendy's but decided not to, so I made a u turn there in the parking lot when I noticed a silver car tinted windows park backwards not infront of Wendy's but towards more in the middle of a Denny's and Wendy's. Denny's is open but has a seperate parking which had open spaces and next to that parking there is an enterance to the plaza which all parking kinda meshes and then there is more parking and then Wendy's. Wendy's is closed except for the drive-thru. What I thought was weird is that no one got out, and no one came out as if they were waiting for a ride. The shooter is said to have a silver looking 4 dr sedan, like the one I saw. Not sure though if I should report it, should I?

This seems to be another dramatic defeat to those who are trying to introduce Intelligent Design.

“Yes, I killed innocent people for my government. And for what? I feel like I’ve had a hand in some sort of evil lie at the hands of our government. I just feel embarrassed, ashamed about it....I spend long hours speechless and looking at the wall, seeing nothing but images of dead Iraqis.” - Marine Sergeant Jimmy Massey

Pfc. Bradley Mason, 20 testified that, during the May 9 raid, Girouard told his squad that Clagett and Hunsaker were going to kill three detainees who had been handcuffed.
Clagett and Hunsaker "just smiled," said Mason, who said he objected to Girouard. "I told him I'm not down with it. It's murder," he said.
"He[Girouard] said that if I say anything, he'd kill me," Mason said, according to a pool report.

I've just had the information through in the post - they are going to charge based on size and depth and weight. Why are they doing this? It is going to be a mega nuisance especially for businesses.

Do you feel it's any of our business what he said or did? Or do you believe as I do, that what happened is between he and the officers and family. I mean, he was intoxicated, and we all say things we do or dont mean under the influence. Don't you think enough is enough?

Personally i think that if these savages want to wipe each other out i think we should pull out and leave them to it then after they have used all there arms and bombs go in and restore order.

Whats your opinion???????

Iraq is more likely to slide into civil war than turn into a democracy, Britain's outgoing ambassador to Baghdad wrote in a leaked diplomatic cable, the BBC reported on Thursday.

William Patey's final cable from Baghdad gives a far more pessimistic assessment for prospects in Iraq than Britain has disclosed in public. It warns of the prospect of Shi'ite militia forming a "state within a state", like Hizbollah
in Lebanon.

After reviewing several articles, many questions go unanswered:

1. How does a soldier get himself kidnapped? What kind of incompetent soldier back home in Israel gets himself kidnapped? It doesn't make much sense and the US media doesn't explain how it happened.

2. Why, in the press release pictures from the Israeli representatives visiting New York, do few of the pictures of one of the "kidnapped" soldier's not show her expressing any grief? She even looks pleased?! Were I the wife of a kidnapped soldier I would at least look embarassed, if not upset or depressed! But a big GRIN?? What? Did she want a divorce before or something and always wanted a free trip to NYC? Happy he's out of the way of an affair? WHAT?

3. I still don't get how the response to a kidnapping is seige of an entire country... I just don't get it.

Someone please make some sense of all this because it's really screwed up!

Rummy and Condi have ok'd a plan to help trian the Lebanese army to protect their country after Isreal defeats Hezbollah. We will also help supply them. I wonder if Mr.Bush remembers that we have schools crumbling, Senior citizens struggling to pay for their medicine, violenece in our own communities, a HUGE defecit, and a city of our own, New Orleans, needing to be rebulit. i am convinced this man is only concered with military operatins and beefng up our allies armed forces.

...don't they sound only slightly different than gangsters posturing over turf?

The only thing missing are the words "muthaf*ck*r", and "b*tch". Otherwise, no different. Sad.

Where's their version of Rodney King? "Can't we all just get along?"

(Oh and yes, I know the US has been guilty of the same thing, so save your Yankee-bashing comments thankyouverymuch.)

Begin was a life long killer of womena and children and a wanted criminal by British Gvoernment He also attacked Lebanon and killed many civilians there. He was given Nobel Peace Prize! Ehud also deserves the one as he is doing the same. Hezbollah is Israeli agent. It is required like Jamal Nasir and Yaser Arafat to act like an enemy. Th ecurrent attack on Lebanon was planned 1 year ago. if you remove Hezbollah from the scene then you see the real ugly face of Israel killing all civilians e.g. Israel killed over 900 civilains and injured over 3000 in Lebanon in just a few day. When Israel inserts Hezbollah the Zionist media paints that Israel is figthing an terrorist organization and hence all sins and crimes of Israel become a "brave" and legitimate action. Israel had attacked USS Liberty and killed USA mariens deliberatley, Israel carried otu Shatilla and Sabira massacre of 3000 women and chidlren. Israel carried out twice attack on WOrld Trade Center (Feb 93 and 9/11) ....
