As an Englishman and owner of many major US based companies I feel I must ask this.
Most of the Americans I own are very hard working and loyal, but recently I have noticed a little unrest in their ranks.They no longer seem content with soup and bread, but instead want food with more protein.I believe the Americans i own have been spending too much time in their huts on Yahoo answers and therefore getting ideas above their station.If I am not careful there may be an uprising!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am well aware there is a few that do, and I strongly support them. However dispite the fact that occupied territories in Israel don't offer the same human rights that are guarenteed in the main land of Israel, Israel is a nation that is supported by the west and human rights abuses of civilians contradict Jewish ethics. Because of that Israel should be malleable to change through peaceful protests because simply not condoning violence and protesting peacefully while spreading media of being shot for doing it is only going to further weaken Israeli support, of Jews and citicenze of western nations see peaceful protesters hurt and never hear about incidences of Palestinian violence, western nations would sanction Israel as well as synagogs run by rituous Jews may even put pressure on Israel. It worked well in british occupied India and its already working real well in Burma, so it would be pretty easy to peacefully spread dissent about Israel because their supposed to be a democracy.

Today oil rises above 90.00 a barrel, some people can claim that supply and demand is the problem. Exxon Mobil made super billion in profits last year. The bum CEOs have astronomical salaries. Now you know why we invaded Iraq..

Why aren't Europeans screaming blue murder that the Ashkenazi Jews and Japanese score higher than them? Why is it okay to say the Japanese are smarter than Europeans, but not that Europeans are smarter than Africans?

Now Sir Ming Cambell has resigned http://www.libdems.org.uk/news/resignation-letter-by-sir-menzies-campbell.13283.html is there any point in voting for one of the three main parties? A

Afterall, we only have the following now available when we get to a General Election:-

A) The anally-retentive incumbent Prime Minister - who talks like an insurance claims assesor

B) Him that sounds for all the world like a double-glazing salesman - with his foot firmly entrenched in the door

and

C) Some yet to be announced 'wet behind the ears' child for the Liberal Democrats!

I suppose you can transfer your 'protest vote' to the environment mob or maybe even 'The Monster Raving Loony Party' - mind you, that's not what it was either now Screaming Lord Sutch is no longer with us - is it?

Is there someone out there who's got the deposit at the next General Election for a new party:-

Don't you think, those who claim that they seek justice for Madeline by trying to nail her parents for her alleged murder, are missing the point???

There is no proof that she is no more.
So that means there is a chance that she is alive.
If she is, she needs to be found.
If people act just on the half chance that she is dead & go ahead & do their best to nail the people they believe (without any proof) are guilty, and if by a tragedy of the legal system, they succeed,,, WHO WILL FIND MADELEINE?????

Apart from the injustice to those charged as guilty of her murder, imagine, just imagine the injustice done to little Madeleine who desperately needs to be found???

This isn't about egos. This isn't a word game.
This is about finding a little lost child.
So put your pride in your pockets & search for justice the way you should...with proof & significant evidence to back you up.

Here the story, what would you if you were President?


Bush Warns of WWIII Over Iran WASHINGTON - President Bush warned on Wednesday a nuclear-armed Iran could lead to World War III as he tried to shore up international opposition to Tehran amid Russian skepticism over its nuclear ambitions. Bush was speaking a day after Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has resisted Western pressure to toughen his stance over Iran’s nuclear program, made clear on a visit to Tehran that Russia would not accept any military action against Iran. At a White House news conference, Bush expressed hope Putin would brief him on his talks in Tehran and said he would ask him to clarify recent remarks on Iran’s nuclear activities. Putin said last week that Russia, which is building Iran’s first atomic power plant, would “proceed from the position” that Tehran had no plans to develop nuclear weapons but he shared international concerns that its nuclear programs “should be as transparent as possible.”

MadeleineMcCann’s father Gerry was allegedly concerned about his wife Kate’s state of mind on the night their little girl vanished.
Heart consultant Gerry was said to have been so worried, he asked a friend to check on Kate and their children.

If this is TRUE one must ask why was he concerned?

They've been planning it for years. They will lie about this, just like they lied about Iraq.

Your honest opinion and why...

haha I just thought I would share this:
I was playing FIFA and I found the Israeli team on Europe continent????
I found it really silly, shouldn't Israel consider Middle East...it is in the Middle East region.....
It's like saying Russian shouldn't be in Asia because they are not literally Asian.

On MSNBC's Catch a Predator, a man is caught on national TV trying to start a sexual relationship with a 13 or 14 year old girl. If we are to be appalled, why is a school in New England going to be distributing birth control pills to 11 year old girls?
