Current Events - December 2006

they are indescriminately blowing up people who believe in Islam different than they do. Then everyone even the pope has to say they are a relgion of peace. Is everyone out of their mind?
Why are you saying what they want you to say even if you know it is a lie? From Africa to Afganistan to Iraq to syria people are dieing.

Why are a lot of enviromentalists against wind farms, they might claim its a blight on the scenery but they are against 4x4s aeroplanes. The truth be told enviromentalists are anything but green they for the last 15 years have been telling us the world is getting hotter, yet one of the most prominent professors who backs this theory was 30 years ago the world was going to be going through another ice age. This to me says everything its just a theory that in 50 years might be proven or might be disputed, one way or another these people are alarmists who cannot sunstantiate for they are spouting as its only theorethical.

Of course murder is murder, and any loss of life is to be regretted. But if you are a Russian agent and you betray your former masters and then start openly criticising them, the writing really is on the wall. If you play ball in that court, one day you are going to lose.

Meanwhile, while the news covers this non-story, Tony Blair and his cronies continue to form the Government and the cash for peerages story is forgotten.

The media has decided that the Prime Minister selling Parliamentary seats is not as important as the murder of a foreign national.

The murder of our own citizens often fails to make any national press at all, and when it does it is rarely headline news.

What on Earth is going on?

2 movies: Blackhawk Down and Hotel Rowanda.

America and the UN went into Somalia to prevent genocide and save dying people. We were criticized for going in there and meddling in their affairs when they didn't want us there (after 18 US deaths and a highly publiciced event).

A year or two later we DIDN'T go into Rowanda (because after all they didn't want us there and we weren't suposed to meddle in their affairs) and people say "Why didn't someone do something?" "Why didn't someone step in and help"?

So which is it....let the Somalies AND the Rowandans kill and starve each other, being cold, heartless and selfish, or go into both countries and help out in both situations and thereby be "the wolrd's police".

It seems like we're going to be criticized no matter what we do. Your thoughts?

Are We 'NOW' Seeing What Democracy Means To A Muslim?
Is Democracy something blood soaked Muslims and Islamic Fascists are not ready for, NOR interested in, NOR sane, rational, fair minded, and literate enough to even consider exercising, like free thought or free choice?

Islam is a religion of mind numbing control, disturbing abuse of women intellectually and physically, mayhem, murder, suicide, hell death and the grave.

Democracy requires education and a slightly evolved human spirit.

It seems from what we see, Muslims will NEVER be ready for democracy, not in this century ... or the next?

Until EVERY Jew is dead and every American in that order...then the Brits, perhaps then the Local Muslim Warlord might allow elections so the region under his control can do ... what else?

Vote for his brother !!

Everything he touches turns into crap! Look at Mexico's former president hanging his head in defeat and shame. He tried to do deals with Bush. Look at Tony Blair--he got pulled right down into the rat hole by that slimey snake, Bush!

Its interesting to see how Americans standby and cheer or just plainly do nothing when abuses are hurled to their president. Is America such a country with no culture that this kind of behaviour is ok? They are making fun of your president in Canada(with the broke back mountain movie canadian version), the Venezuelan president came and called your president a devil and nobody openend their mouths!!! The world sits back and watches as Americans abuse and taunt their leader shamelessly. Isnt there a man or woman or child who is capable of standing up and saying Enough is Enough? When a country is suffering, America comes to their aid, when people are hungry, America comes to their aid, when a Tsunami strike, America shows up, I mean, thanks alot for all your help. We are very grateful. But please, the world respects you America and believe me, we are soooo amazed when we see how you treat your president. We wonder whether that is some sort of entertainment for us!! Is it?

He was backed by the US in the war against Iran in during the 80's and was also successful in keeping the waring groups appart for 25 years.... We created a power vaccume and what works over there is a hard line strong man to keep the peace. Demoracy is against their reglion and will never work! Its either that or draw new lines in the sand and hope for the best?
