What is the difference?

I signed off on my divorce under desperate circumstances, as my husband had tryed to kill me 9 months before, (put on probation only)and I was still afraid to cross him in any way. It was a twelve year verbal and phsically abusive marriage. He makes 400,000. per year, and has a home with no mortgage. I have physical custody of the childre(4), and receive 70,000./ year and cannot work due to child with special needs. My ex threatened me the day before court, and still being under his seige, I assented. I am now healthier (therapy) and cannot make ends meet with this settlement. He clearly can afford more, (he has had an increase as well), but I did sign off. He also it turned out, was gay and acting out our entire marriage. He is now financially abusive and I'm at my ropes end. Is there any way to bring a motion to reopen the case.

Our brothers, sisters, fathers, sons are on the front line in Basra, Kabul and Baghdad. They enlist, they give their lives for their country. Yet the man who got us into this war has kids who will never fight in Basra or Baghdad. We see them in glossie magazines partying and on vacation. Meanwhile Cheney is laughing all the way to his offshore account as his Haliburton profits soar.
Halliburton Profits Skyrocket On Iraq Deals

Thu Jul 31, Financial Times

By Sheila McNulty in Houston

Halliburton, the second biggest oilfield service company in the world, on Thursday said work in Iraq had boosted revenue as it swung from a loss to record second-quarter net income of $26m , or 6 cents a share, compared with the year-earlier period.

The Houston-based company credited the quarter's 11 per cent rise in revenue, to $3.6bn largely to increased activity in its Engineering and Construction Group (ECG) projects, including government services work in the Middle East.

They have dragged this on for a year and a half and just keep delaying and making wild accusations almost every single day, sleeping with the babysitter, punching the kids, threatening her all the while I was taking care of her because she had two seizures one day. I have the kids 100% she gets a 55/45 ruling even though she admittedly drinks heavy, pops pills, and was driving without a license, it goes on and on, a judge who doesnt care, a FCS counselor goes against: drinking, prescriptions drugs, seizures, panic attacks, with her refusing counseling, refusing to quit drinking and getting all the judgements for her while I take care of her and the kids. How can I stop this train wreck?

During the Cold war, it was commonly accepted that MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) would prohibit 2 sides from using nuclear weapons becuase it would bring forth a devestating retaliation. When there is a balance of power in nuclear technology, people think twice about using it. If every nation on the planet had nuclear weapons, we would have everlasting peace.

Because everyone knows if you use it, you are toast as well. Thus, just like US and Soviet Union, either side would not be able to make the first move.

Do you know there are about 10,000 Arabs ( Palestinians and Lebanese ) in Israel jails, including 1000 kids and women? How should they free their imprisoned people?

Everyone knows that Israel is the only country which doesnt respect the UN resolutions, They don't free the prisoners in no way. So the only way left for them is to kidnap soldiers and exchange them with Israeli army. It had happened before as the only way for releasing their people from Israel's jail.

Why was it THIS TIME that these two soldiers equal destroying Lebanon as a country with everything in it! Killing its people, social life, and economy? What should they do to release their prisoners?
