Current Events - September 2007

Why does America make a big seen in Iraq and then invite the presedent of the nation beside it to come and speak when we were fighting Iraq in the first place so that they don't come??? Also, why are we still fighting them now??? Who are we to set up there government??? Is it all because we need there oil??

What is the reason that people believe to keep troops in Iraq of to take them out? By reason, I mean a wider-perspective reason - not something like "Because families are heart-broken that children are dying everyday," but something like "Republicans don't want to pull out the war they started or they'd lose power in the elections." I'm not saying death isn't important but asking what the end-result would be if we chose to keep/pull out troops.

Its 4 on 3 instead of 6 on 1. Think Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton will call for a march to release the accused on grounds that the charges are overblown and this was merely a school fight?

And this from a guy that says ...."The holacaust never happened " ?
So, should we believe him when he says the Iranian nuclear issue is "now closed" ?
In my opinion, Ahmadinejad is missing a few sandwiches for his picknik......the same way Hitler was missing a few bricks for a load......and just as dangerous.
I, for one am real glad we're sitting right on this moron's door step with our troops....
What do you think Hitler would have been able to in Warsaw if we'd had Patton parked on the border of Poland in 1939 ?
Not A "F"ing thing ! That's what ! and something else.....Tojo would have had to think more than twice about Pearl Harbor too !!!!
Walk Tall and carry a BIG stick .....from now on !

Comedian Dave Longley "told the stunned audience at Liverpool's Baby Blue club that "you think parents would have learned about putting their children in Everton shirts after Maddie and Rhys". The red-faced comic, who was a hit at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, was booed off stage.

Everton FC spokesman Ian Ross added: "I certainly speak for every Everton fan in this city and probably all the Liverpool fans when I say they'd be eternally grateful if this man never performs in this city again."

Longley's manager, Lee Martin, said: "Dave was having a great gig and got a little carried away. By his own admission he made a stupid mistake and greatly regrets the ill-chosen joke." "

I AM NOT saying that I think this is an overreaction, I am just asking your own opinion. Not giving my own. Did the Everton FC spokeman overreact?

. What is the most feasible solution to this terrible problem? What is wrong with most of the solutions out there today? Please note, my question isn't about who has the best claim to the land, but how to get out of this situation.

I'm an independent & agree on some things with each major party but who agrees that if democrats are going to try to point fingers & put blame for the Iraq war on republicans though democrats also voted time & again in support of it until public opinion changed then democrats "own" or are to blame for Vietnam & the 58,000 americans who died & thousands of wounded from that 10 year war. Which was started by JFK with adviser then increased by him & of course the bulk of the war & commitment to it coming during LBJ who also was a democrat. So while I disagree with trying to put blame on anyone for either war if politicians are going to be children & try to pass the buck when things get bad then Vietnam is theirs as well as failing to come with a better plan for Iraq since they control congress & for cutting the military during the Clinton empire which helped to lead us to smaller military today. Who agrees? Dont forget democrats claim a majority & mandate yet can't get anything done LOL.

Ok I'm off, my time on YA is done. I leave you with three points and the final question.

1) thanks to all who have answered my questions whether I have agreed with you or not, thanks also for the stars, and thumbs for my answers too.
2) Despite it now being over 5 months since Madeleine disappeared. I hope she is found, and found alive and well.
3) I don't know to what extent Kate, Gerry and the Tapas 7 were involved in Madeleines disappearance, but they are self confessed serial child neglectors and should brought to book for that.

My question is really over to you to give you a chance for that parting comment before I go ?

Take care its a crazy world out there.

ps with matters get fragile over Iran I may re-emerged on the Washington Post News Forums, we will see.

Why are Canadian GM plants shutting down due to U.S. strikes? It would make sense that if anything it would provide more work opportunities in Canada. Also, what are these strikes over?
