At a press conference yesterday President Bush announced that a recent National Intelligence Estimate concluded that Iran abandoned its nuclear weapons program four years ago. Yet in the last few weeks the US government has done nothing but warn of the nuclear threat that Iran supposedly posed. How can this be explained--rationally? What is your reaction? Should anything be done about it, and if so, what? Your reactions, please.

Now then as Managers where we work we have had to take a few members of staff on secondments to answer phones and take orders.
Now one of the girls who i know quite well and i'm very friendly with her sister is muslim and wears the head gear wanted one of the secondments. We said no for 2 very good reasons 1 she will not be able to answer phones because we use 1 ear headsets and she won't be able to hear the customer which she herself has confirmed she can't hear due to her head wear. She is not allowed to use a standard telephone as health and safety won't allow it due to acoustic shock, thats why we have specialist headsets. Second reason was she refused to take calls on the sales floor due to the same fact that she could not hear the customer (even though when she applied she said she could hear) so she was given an offline role which p issed all the other staff off as offline roles are like gold dust. Now we are being accused of being racist as we have said we are unable to offer

Do you think it's right that our over-worked and under-paid nurses should be spending their time turning Muslim patients' beds towards Mecca five times a day so then can pray?

http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/27213/Nurses-told-to-turn-Muslims-beds-to-Mecca

OVERWORKED nurses have been ordered to stop all medical work five times every day to move Muslim patients’ beds so they face towards Mecca.

The lengthy procedure, which also includes providing fresh bathing water, is creating turmoil among overstretched staff on bustling NHS wards.

But despite the havoc, Mid- Yorkshire NHS Trust says the rule must be instigated whenever possible to ensure Muslim patients have “a more comfortable stay in hospital”.

And a taxpayer-funded training programme for several hundred hospital staff has begun to ensure that all are familiar with the workings of the Muslim faith.

He appears to be some sort of lackey or lickspittle to the muslems, allowing them to build a gargantuan mosque in the east end. always being rude about the jews, allowing a homophiobic islamic fanatic who preaches death to gays to come and give a talk here.

I read an article in the Daily Star today, which made my blood boil.
Our nurses are to stop whatever they are doing, to turn the bed's of Muslim patients (in OUR hospitals ) towards mecca, 5 TIMES A DAY!!!! How much more of this pampering of foreigners must we endure? Whatever is happening to our Country? and how can we make our government see we have HAD ENOUGH?

That Bushy says he was not made aware Iran halted work toward a nuclear weapon under international scrutiny in 2003 and is unlikely to be able to produce enough enriched uranium for a bomb until 2010 to 2015, a U.S. intelligence reported and he said he didn't know that until last week?

Include specific reference to passive border control, lack of language enforcement, and increase in liberalism.

Glad she was released eventually, but doesnt this show how Muslims cannot even take a small insight, critism or joke towards their religon without giving someone "40 lashings". I mean its not an uncommon name, a huge amout of people are called that but if this happened in a Christian country and someone called a bear Jesus, Nothing would have happened. You dont see other religons attempting to give capital punishment to people.

Anyway, why did this Teacher nearly get punished when it was the children naming the bear?

Basically i just need to know why only certain countrys can get away with stuff like this?

... dangerous than North Korea or our open borders or even Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, or China???
Isn't it all sort of an illusion, and the more some place is hyped, the more dangerous it is perceived to be?

A hospital in Dewsbury is going to turn the beds of Muslim patients to face Mecca and staff are to be trained to help patients uphold the Islamic faith.
Now you know where your money is going, what do you think?

Me and my friend are at college full time doing a HND to better ourselves etc.
She has food to buy, rent to pay and its hard 2 get a job when ur at college full time and i have a daughter to support, food to buy,christmas etc the usual.
Is it fair that when our fridges are bare, my brother who is on job seekers allowance (he gets more money than us) sitting about not even attempting to get a job announces that he has plenty of food in his freezer probably too much and he gets 'paid' again on friday????
