Resistance or terrorist? Resistance fights back to keep what is theirs, terrorist fights to disrupt a way of life through terror activity.

I told him how silly he was to go into the military. I also told him the Marines are getting a butt beating. However, I will be nice to him. I'll push him around in a wheel chair when he gets his legs blown off.

I work at a town camp, & I have a feeling I'll be fired the end of the summer, just because I guess im not liked (im nice to everyone, just intimidating I guess). They'll probably try to pull some excuse that Im too old or whatever (but there are people older than me working the camps)

The only thing they have against me is that "I" lost a child on the camp grounds [which are very small by the way], but that wasnt my fualt, & the blame was placed on me, because none of my other co-counselors owned up.

Since then, they've said that I "always lose my kids" (which is totally untrue, swear! I dont know how one time turns into always) And I've heard them talk about me "negativly" a few times

I like this job, close to home, kids are nice, it pays REAL NICE, i'll do whatever it takes to keep it!

PS- last summer, i sprained my ankle bad on the grounds on some uneven gravel [aka, not my fualt] & i wasnt compinsated, yeah, they still payed my salary, but no med. bills, can i use that too?

It's time to say the truth. The best way would be for the FBI / DOD to

release the missing frames of the pentagon's cctv video,
release the cctv video of the "mysterious hotel" (the Sheraton National ?),
release the NEXCOMM/CITGO-gas station video,
release other videos or photos like the Virginia department of transports, or from the sites over which flight 77 flew on 9/11,
kindly ask the BBC, public media of the United Kingdom, USA ally, to release the images shown during Ehud Barak's interview on sept. 11,
allow independent experts to examine the debris of the crash on the pentagon, with witnesses having gathered these debris to identicate them,
make some holes in the newly brought materials on the pentagon helicopter field, down to the original soil, and verify that there is no uranium on it.

Public opinion, inside the United States and outside, must ask the United States senate and Congress to open an investigation on pentagon crash. Senators and congressmen must know the truth. They must know how and why the Bush administration has engaged their country into dreadfull conflicts in the middle east. Sign the petition on line !

The results of the official investigation commission on the 9/11 events, (see their web site or archived hearings) are just intended to frameup properly what happened. The hundred of pages to accuse "the bureaucracy" (with no name) to be responsible, and could be resumed ironically by the formula "it's the systemic's fault", are just a way to take the victims, the families of the victims, and the citizens of this planet for gulls.

It's up to the citizens of the United States of America to react and push their authorities, evenly after changing these authorities, to find out what happened really on september 11 2001 : this could need to go through a revolution, in the spirit of the eigtheenth century.
This must be analysed, for all earth's citizens, as a failing of the form of democracy so much praised by the occidental countries, which turns to be a plutocracy easily turned to facism. A new world order is necessary, and we, citizens of planet Earth, must build it, in respect of justice, fairness, international laws, environment protection. Brutal military or economic force must be eliminated. What convinced me that Flight 77 was not the Killer Jet

I ask this because it seems like most aspects of Mexican culture are driven by contact with the US. Their economy, their foreign policy, their immigration policy seem to all be dependent on the US.

The structure, I didn't say effectiveness, of their government is a mirror image of the US government (although the British and US governments have been the models for almost all modern republics).

It's often said (not that I agree with it) that America's economy is dependent on Mexican labor and would collapse if deprived of said labor. Can the same not be said of Mexico? Wouldn't Mexico's economy fall apart if deprived from the monetary exports of the immigrants and the tourism income?

So, therein lies the discussion. Is Mexico truly a sovereign nation, or are they already the 51st state just waiting for the paperwork to make it legal?

I think Israel kicks a s s. The only thing I do not agree with that Israel has done is the fact that it destroyed the whole country of Lebanon. Other than that, I think they are doing a great job to fight terrorism.

George HW Bush - incited a revolt to overthrow Saddam. Failed miserably, as Saddam mowed them down with helicopter gunships. Bush ignored their urgent calls for help, even though the UN no-fly zone was being violated. Approximately 300,000 Iraqis were massacred and executed afterwards.

UN Sanctions - approximately 2 MILLION Iraqis starved to death or died of diseases due to sanctions imposed by the Bush administration.

George W Bush - approximately 100,000 Iraqis were killed during the invasion of Iraq. Thousands more have died since due to car bombings.

That's approximately 2.4M Iraqis that died due to the Bush family. So who's the real Butcher of Baghdad?

Accused U.S. soldiers refuse to testify By RYAN LENZ, Associated Press Writer
TIKRIT, Iraq -.... Four U.S. soldiers accused of murdering Iraqi detainees refused to testify Thursday at a military hearing, where witnesses described how one of the victims spat blood as he lay dying and another was covered in brain matter.

The four invoked their right not to testify for fear of incriminating themselves at the hearing to determine if they should be court-martialed for the May 9 shooting deaths. Instead, their attorneys submitted sworn statements and rested their case on the third day of the hearing.

The defendants — Pfc. Corey R. Clagett, Spc. William B. Hunsaker, Staff Sgt. Raymond L. Girouard and Spc. Juston R. Graber — initially said the three detainees were killed because they tried to escape, but military prosecutors have said they were freed before being shot.

The troops have said this is the American way to kill arabs and they are proud to kill for Bush.

How can we get rid of English lager louts and their infantile primatism?
Panorama last night showed how beer and football have fused to create a subculture of degenerate yobs, who bring shame to football and to their countries. It's not just England that harbours these halfbreeds, Germany and Holland create them too, but the English seem to create a malevolent vitriol that exceeds any one else.

I partied with the Italians in Piccadilly, and they were wonderful company, I would think twice before entering an English crowd.

I believe that these people are empty-headed, dissatisfied, mis-educated and ignorant, as well as being utterly selfish.

So, what can our society do.

PS watch the answers carefully...they may indicate what we English have to put up with in terms of ignorance.

Top generals see threat of Iraq civil war By Kristin Roberts and Vicki Allen



WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Iraq is caught in the worst sectarian violence yet seen and faces the threat of civil war, two of the United States' senior generals said on Thursday, three years after the U.S. invasion.

"Sectarian violence probably is as bad as I've seen it, the senior Generals stated. Rumsfelt and Bush did not tell the truth about Iraq and another General said this about his boss Rusfelt.." Rumsfelt always put on a happy face about the war and he refused to admit the war was going badly". Now troops are dying for nothing and the warmongers don't want to admit that. The warmongers and Bush supporters should be ashamed. Do all of you here on this board agree?
