While watching the war on T.V., I have noticed most of the soldiers have hard helmets but every so often I see one with kind of a floppy hat. What kind of helmet is that?

Was there an intense focus on "German casualties" by the prevailing media(print and radio) during WW2? I sort of doubt it.

I'm an American teen and I have a few ?'s about the conflict between Israel and Lebanon. I'm a pacifist and am against war.Why are they even fighting? What started the fighting? Why can't we all just get along? Do they even think of the children/teens in each others countries? Why were Lebanese people burning the American flag and calling us teorrist when they are fighting with Israel not us? (They were also burning the Israel flag which i could understand since they are fighting) Why do all these muslim countries hate us Americans? Not all us Americans are the same so I don't see why they have to bad mouth everyone of us Americans cause not all of us are the same. We are all different! I don't go hating muslims cause they like to bomb people. (I'm not saying all muslims bomb people but I'm talking about like the 9/11 madrid london events) Yeah Bush is an idiot and I don't blame them for hating Bush i dislike him too! I just wish everyone would get along for the sake of our future!

Instead of being offended, your entitled to dissagreeing with what i have to say, but the yellowbellies always have to yell anti semitic bcs they cant take the truth. I have not once posted hatred only contested Israeli behaviour and sothey hunt me down bcs its not in their favour as victims.
No one can stop Israel but Israelies can sure as hell stop anyone from having an opinion. Is this the democracy that everyone is talking about thats so wonderful?
If i dont like whats going on in Israel i will say it and if you think im wrong Then Educate me.

Do you think/hope that Leonard Peltier will be freed?

Do you think/believe they were imprisoned because of a racist police state?
If white supremecy does not exist, as so many people believe, then why are they still in jail for resisting assimilation as so many other political prisoners are?
Should forced assimilation be a crime? Let me rephrase that: should assimilation be a crime?
What are your thoughts?

First, the transfer is only temporary, and second, power was transferred to Castro's BROTHER. Do they really think he is going to make any major changes?

According to CNN, Fidel Castro has ceded his power to his younger brother, citing intestinal problems. This is said to be temporary, but in the history of his presidency, Castro has NEVER ceded power before. Is he gone for good?

With Fidel having relinquished power to his brother, the chances of a successful coup by the Cuban resistance look pretty good. Anyone else agree? And considering the contempt of the world community--outside the U.S., Britain, and Israel--for democratic reform, what will the world reaction to a coup be?

If this nation is intent on wiping it off the map,

If its citizens are willing to blow themselves up to accomplish this,

If this is the only way to ensure that they will NOT be attacked constantly,

Than why shouldnt they have the right to conquer them?

(just asking, its a hypothetixcal considering anyone who thinnks israel is trying to conquer lebanon is an ignorant, illiterate fool)
