Politics & Government - 15 July 2006

My daughter's Honduran boyfriend was deported from Canada in December. He says he will be on a train in Mexico by the beginning of August and will be in the USA by mid-August. What do you think? Will he make it? Or will he be caught in Mexico or at the US/Mexican border? Care to place a "guess?" Personally, I hope he is caught in Mexico and jailed for the two years or more that I heard Mexico often jails their illegal immigrants. If he is not caught and jailed in Mexico, I know that he will just keep on trying until he makes it and my daughter's future is going to go down the drain! Once he gets into the USA, he figures he will be back in Canada by September. I do NOT want this to happen! I am hoping against hope that he does NOT make it! What do you people think? Will he make it? Will the increased border patrol, NG, and/or Minutemen stop him if he manages to get through Mexico?

this is something that i can not understand. after WW1 the west, mainly england and the US, gives palestinian land that was under british occupation to the jews to establish the state of israel. the palestinian people and their land went from a british occupation to an israeli occupation. in the process GOD knows how many thousands have been killed and more had to leave their homecountry and lands to live as refugees until this day. in their place thousands of jewish immigrants came from europe and the rest of the world to live on ARAB land and make israel what it is.
i still cant understand what gave the west and the jewish people the right to do so?
u might say this was a long time ago. does that make it OK?
u might say its israel "GOD given land". in that case, who truly is the religious extremist?

When debating politics, people often make assumptions about what the government ought to do, and then only fight about how to do it. But what exactly is the proper set of activities with which governments should be concerned?

In one of the answers to my question, someone said that blasphemy is a crime that is punishable by up to 5 years in prison. Is this true?

Will there ever be a political party in America, that will give the real power of this country back to its citizens, by allowing each individual to deside how and on what he wants his tax money to be spent on, rather than the Government desiding for us. I think we should have the right to at least deside on 80% of our money.

American dominance has proved extremly violant for the world and its fast decline may usher the world into a peaceful and prosperous future. Hence there is a need to give serious thought to the means to achieve fast American decline, by peaceful means for the welfare of the whole world.

If it is not illegal and it doesn't affect or hurt you then why care? How about we just worry about what is going on our own lives, thus making it better, and in turn making us less of an *sshole to others?

I've asked a similar question to this before, but I rethought it today. I was walking into a Wawa (for those of you unfortunate enough not to live in the philadelphia area, Wawa is the greatest 24 hour convenience store/dairy/sandwich shop on the planet) and a kid standing outside the door asked me to buy him a blunt. Kids under 18 can't buy tobacco in PA because it's illegal. The kid wasn't trying to get a cigar, he was trying to get the paper from the cigar for weed. Obviously, this kid can get the weed, but he can't get the cigar. There's something wrong with this. Shouldn't we legalize marijuana so we can tax it and at least control it?

without any negotiations isreal attacked to these countries civilians however they have got isreal's soldiers not civilans infact they are POW and attaking to civilians for releasing them is opposite of any worldwide rule.
On the otherhand isreal movements shows that their aims is rather than just freeing 3 soldiers they want to strike down the middle east and dictating there.
Isreal & US think they are higher than any rule and change them along their benfit and worldwide medias are just supporting them.
And we.....
