Current Events - November 2007

As you all probably know,my main account was suspended 1 week ago today (sob,sob).I keep getting emails saying you need to choose best answer (which i can't do,ooops keeps appearing).
Right my question is:
The community has picked best answers for my questions,so do the recipients still get the 10 points or is yahoo wasting time and effort with the emails,they must know they killed me off,so why keep sending me yahoo answer stuff.

It rained all day and night (not just a shower but heavy torrential rain) This morning it is raining again (heavy torrential rain) and it looks like it's here to stay again.

Will it pass or should I start gathering wood, nails & a hammer and start building?

so their engineers could get to work.

Has anyone noticed anything different with Yahoo? I haven't.

I still get an error message when I go in to certain questions which closes Yahoo Answers! down

Has anyone noticed any changes or do you get error messages?

In Italy they kill thousands of black cats (poor kitties) due to superstition that black cats are unlucky

Black Cat Day has been introduced by animal rights campaigners to stop the cull.

I think it's a brilliant idea.

60,000 cats were killed last year alone.

Has countries like Italy gone mad????

YouTube are running a new anti bullying campaign for anti bullying week (this week).

Are YouTube one of the worst offenders for allowing some of the bullying videos such as happyslapping to be shown on their site?

Several news carriers are tonight claiming OPEC members favour ditching the dollar for the euro. Has the falling US$ had its day?

2007-11-18 16:36:49 · 7 answers · asked by Phil McCracken 5

The American Right attacked Iraq for one reason and one reason only: to control the oil fields and stop OPEC switching to Euros which would screw the American economy; the attack was both an attempt to control the oil fields and toi serve as a warning lest any middle east "dare" switch it's currency reserves away from US dollars. Saudis are the only country still backing the US in this use of brutaility and intimidation, Iran and other OPEC countries are calling for switch to Euros, and why not?? why get paid crap when you can get Euros?

Look how she cried and pleaded for the return of her two small boys:

And then she confessed to killing them.

So is it right for people to judge and condem the McCann's because they don't carry on like some people think they should?

I read a post on a forum that said "If you do not support the war on terror then you are supporting terrorism and you are a terrorist. You should therefore be subject to punishment".
Is this statement true, or is this person simply a right-wing nutjob?

I am of course refering to Mr. and Mrs. McCann. I think they have conducted themselves with the utmost dignity in a situation that would have destroyed most people. But for their strength of character and determination I am sure they would have fallen apart. May God bless them and return their beloved daughter to them soon.

It's a new day tomorrow, can we all have a week when there is no racial tension, no bullying just being nice. It upsets me to see some of the things written on here and there really is NO need for it.
This is a current event board so instead of all the awful things that some people are posting can we please just have some healthy debate, or have we all forgotten what that was ?
People will never always agree but on here it gets TOO personal and vindictive.

For me he may be becoming a tyrant. I understand his opposition toward USA, is quite common in Latin America. However I find him more a big mouth clown, than a scary character. He talks too much, and seems more in creating a "scary image", than being a threat. All image only. What do you think?
