Israel today launched a massive air assault on suspected terrorist targets along coastal cities of the United States of America. Termed operation Just Reward II, hundreds of Israeli fighter jets streamed across the Atlantic in precise formation and fired surgical air strikes at alleged terrorist strongholds in the heavy Muslim populations of Jersey City and North Bergen, New Jersey. The jets then continued south, inflicting massive destruction in the densely populated northeastern US state.

Reaction to the attacks was swift. President Bush asked for restraint, but stated emphatically that “Israel had the right to defend itself.”

Someone rear-ended me yesterday. I am having headaches, back, neck, and shoulder pain. Also, I'm having pain with my siatic nerve and in my upper legs. I went to a chiropractor ( they are billing his insurance) and I am going to speak to an attorney tomorrow about a settlement. Does anyone have any experience with this? Any advice? Any ideas of how much money I will receive? thanks..

Written in response to a series of letters to the editor in the Orange
County Register:

Dear Editor:

So many letter writers have based their arguments on how this land is made up of immigrants. Ernie Lujan for one, suggests we should tear down the Statute of Liberty because the people now in question aren't being treated the same as those who passed through Ellis Island and other ports of entry.

Maybe we should turn to our history books and point out to people like Mr. Lujan why today's American is not willing to accept this new kind of immigrant any longer.

Back in 1900 when there was a rush from all areas of Europe to come to the United States, people had to get off a ship and stand in a long line in New York and be documented. Some would even get down on their hands and knees and kiss the ground. They made a pledge to uphold the laws and support their new country in good and bad times.

I have a lemon law case against Nissan. Last March, a Nissan representative sent a letter to my attorney offering me $3000 to settle the case. It appears the problem I was having with my Armada has been finally resolved. Now, I really want to get the $3000 they are offering. My question is, should I have my attorney contact Nissan to send me the payment or should I contact the Nissan rep directly without advising my attorney? I'm afraid that if I contact my attorney first, he'd ask for payment from me as well. Any ideas? Thanks.

I know most of us (left and right) know that this isn't true. I know some argue he was taken out because he was an immediate threat, but not due to 9/11.

This is well and good, but focus on the question: Why, when polled, does the general populace believe Iraq attacked us that day?

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/09/05/september11/main520874.shtml
http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2003-09-06-poll-iraq_x.htm

I realize the poll is an older poll and that number is less now, but still relatively high when considering our leaders have even said there is no DIRECT link to the attacks and Iraq.

i.e immigration, hezbollah, iraq, gay marriage, patriot act etc. I mean what are we (left/right wing) divided over if nobody is getting real results? All I see is 1 side bashing the other about their views? And why is that? Why do Republicans call Democrats stupids and why do Democrats think Republicans are insensitive to human life? Are these assertions true? Observe as I am insulted for asking such a relevant question.

The Democrats would cease to exist if just one generation would learn HOW to think. The only reason Democrats have survived this long is that we've handed over the responsibility of educating our children to government schools and the NEA.
