Current Events - March 2007

British Naval personnel taken prisoner by Iranian forces. This is of course a serious event, and one would hope that the outcome is favourable with no casualities, but why, in events even far less serious than this, does the 'oil industry' proclaim that 'oil prices must rise'. The producers don't increase the prices, but the oil companies do, and it's the consumer that suffers giving HUGE profits to these companies.

im am sorry, but i am so annoyed with everyone (80 % of america) who says that they are against the war in iraq. i think that what we are trying to do over there is great, we are spreading and promoting democracy, i dont get why people want to pull our troops out of there, iraq will fall in chaos, and possibly turn out worse than it used to be. we cant just stay in country and isolate ourselves if the world isnt perfect. i understand that troops are dying, but there will be deaths either way, it will either be the troops dying for democracy, freedom, and for america; or it will be american civilians in another 9/11 attack. we cant just pretend that the world is ok just cuz we dont want to get involved, otherwize, while we are in denile in our country, a monster like iran, or north korea, or iraq will gain power that we will leave us with devestating results. i think
that if you're not supporting your team, then why the hell are you in their stadium? get the hell out!

If you believe the invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq is right and just, how come you aren't over there fighting yourself? Is it OK to send kids and back-doored reservists while you sit in your comfy chair in your comfy house, watching your TV and going to the mall? How do you justify that?

I am deeply concerned abou the recent reports that dog/cat food contaminated with Chinese wheat containing aminopterin is suspected as the cause for the recent pet food deaths. I love pets, but I am more concerned that American humans have eaten the contaminated wheat.

We called the Mujahideen who fought against the soviets in Afghanistan " freedom fighters." We were their principal allies and supplier of arms. To the Soviets they were terrorists. They committed unspeakable acts of violence on the Soviet officers they captured. Today, some of those same freedom fighters are fighting with the Taliban. Now we call them terrorists.

I was watching I think Keith Olberman on MSNBC the other night and he was giving a 10min speech and at the top of the screen it said that we had decleared war with Iran. I type in searches to see if we have and I can't find anything saying that we have.

So I am pretty sure we have not decleared war but I am confused on why MSNBC would have a headline like that?

1 ]. Wait it out for weeks or months.

2 ]. Give a 24 hour warning. Release them, or taste our nukes.

3 ]. Give an unconditional surrender. To Iran.
