Israel, Iraq, others, should be insignificant to the sole super power in the world, why do we, or our government, still care? Altruism?

I don't get why these groups and other groups think that God would be happy with their actions when his only beggotten son was Jewish and God made everyone and loves them all even idiots.

dont we have freedom of speech in america, does it seem like a bad thing to anyone else that the very documents that this country was founded on are becoming void. if mel doesn't have the right to say something about jewish people then we dont have freedom of speech. the very first thing in the constitution doesn't exist. i find that very concerning. the very second thing. freedom of press. is also now null. you cant write christmas on your own frontyard without a jewish person suing you for thousands of dollars. that is less then freedom people. mel gibson is a US citizen, he can say whatever he wants and write down whatever he wants, he should not have to appologize and he should not be penalized. the same goes for meand you. we are slowly losing our rights. does no one realize that america could become a fascist goevernment. forced to say what is appropriate, forced to write down what will never offend anyone. which wont be much. america isnt free now, and its only getting worse

Driving under the influence (alcohol) and talking on cell phone both should be held on the same platform when it come to breaking the law, both are equally dangerous, talking on a cell phone in my opinion more commonly to cause problems, since there are more people doing this that drinking and driving. For example i have been ran off the road completely twice in the past year by people have been talking on cell phone they had merge in oncomming traffic and i have swerved to miss them, and yesterday my father was at a red light and a woman talking on a cell phone plowed into his car, totaling it. When the cops came all she got was a fine and is required to pay to have my dads care fixed, but if the situation contain alcohol the woman would have been arrested, i feel punishment should be just as harsh, just wondering other peopls thought on the matter.

Someone is trying to scam my brother out of $4900.00. He is up on them. They told him he won a Canadian lottery. They sent him a check for the $4900.00. He is now supposed to issue 2 money grams for $2500.00 to 2 people....allegedly the Montreal Secretary & Montreal Treasurer. After he does this he allegedly would get a check for One Million Dollars. My brother knows it is a scam and that they just want his $5,000.00. My brother has been collectiong the information from this Mid-eastern man over the last month that he has been in contact with him. He received the check and went to the bank expecting his bank to take a complaint. He called the credit union organization that issued the check. They said it is a "Nigerian lottery scam" going on and they are aware of it. He called Montreal Police, FBI and Chicago PD. Everyone keeps blowing him off to someone else. Who can he give this info to so they are caught & others don't get ripped off and $$$ in terrorist hands??

We lambast the folks in the southeast section of our country for flying the Confederate battle flag. They're rednecks, they're klan members, they're dumb hicks... etc. They're showing pride in their region's past. They're showing reverence for their ancestors. 'But their ancestors owned slaves!!!' Well, the United States had legal slavery for 85-90 years (depending on what year you consider the US founded and when slavery ended) and the Confederate flag flew over slavery for only 4 years. Shouldn't the US flag be considered more slave oriented...

But I digress...

My point, and my question, are isn't it a double standard to make light of the Southerners displaying their heritage by waving the Confederate flag, when we constantly see Mexicans waving their flag proclaiming their heritage?

Yeah, the ancestors of Southerners owned slaves, true. The ancestors of the Mexicans performed human sacrifices and ripped peoples hearts out. What's worse?

I suggest he may in charge of the reconstruction committee for Lebanon, or maybe, US Ambassador to Iraq and Afrghanistan. You know a sort Pres. Carter role, if he can garner enough respect around the world.

America absolutely depends on middle east oil, there is no possible denial of this fact. It is my belief that the accusations coming from the left are correct but for the wrong reason, (as odd as it might sound). The free flow of oil from the middle east is beyond critical to Americans way of life, if you can't see that study it. Our reliance forces us to protect the transportation of oil from the middle east. Therefore we had to and must continue to do what ever is necessary to keep it coming. The war was for oil but to BUY it not steal it like the lame accusations claim from the left. Our government was probably reluctant to go to war but forced to at the same time. Same goes with Iran, count on this, we will and must defang (disarm) the ragheads threatening the shipment of oil to the US. So, directly it is about the oil but most importantly it is about continueing life as we know it until we adjust our reliance on foreign oil. So, the left was right (sort of).

a cease fire between Lebanon and Israel? If this is true, can someone please explain it to me? I'll be totally honest, my life has been stressful as it is and I haven't paid so much attention as I NORMALLY WOULD to this situation because I need to stay "up" somewhat. Crying isn't fun all the time. Not only that but he makes me so angry - Bush - that I almost can't stand hearing about it but NOW I HAVE TO KNOW THE TRUTH. What is up with this man? Why would our president NOT want a cease fire and war to stop? They may not resolve everything during a cease fire (probably won't) but MAYBE - JUST MAYBE - they can come to some sort of resolution. I mean the less time shooting and firing bombs, the better --- am I right? I'm so confused. You can bash me for not paying attention - maybe I deserve it but sometimes your life is at a point you can only take so much.

How come this happen. Young children is not terrorist. Hizbullah make them as a shield but you CANNOT KILL THE CHILDREN.

I have asked the question and most of americans said it is good to kill the kids. what a damn stupid. Do you know that killing children is just for dracula the devil.

If it happen to your children do you agree with them? Most americans and israel hungry for blood. That is not good.
