Why do so many people believe that the whole "man on the moon" thing was made up? Do you believe that Neil Alden Armstrong landed on the moon in July 20, 1969, or do you think it was all a hoax?

Why can't we send back the families of these terrorists who terroise us to their country of origin as a punishment when the terorists are caught and convicted of their crimes. If the terrorists realise that their families will be sent back to their own countries they might think again before terrorising us If they cant be patriotic to the country that has fed and educated them, given them all types of benefits that they won't and don't get in their own countries. then why should they live here? I lived in a developing country for a few years and I wasn't given any preferential treatment nor any benefits whatsoever so why can't all these benefits be on a reciprocal basis?

Obviously he is portraid as evil and quotes are taken out of context. How much of a threat do you think he is in power to the US government and their allies? I think he's crazy, I said this before he was elected and remain to think his intentions are to dominate the region.

A significant proportion of the American public support the war in Iraq even in the absence of WMDs and United Nations support, why?

This confusion on my part is compounded by the fact that following the death of 6,000 innocent civilians on 9/11, the Republican Party saw fit to invade Iraq and kill a further 2,000 or more Americans in the process; this country had nothing to do with 9/11 in the first place. Apparently, for some its also unpatriotic to say that the war is unjust, that killing 2,000 innocent American soldiers is a bad idea. It is a pity that Germany thought the same way during Hitlers reign.

Supporters appear to believe that the invasion of Iraq was due to muslims envying American freedom. Why do they believe this spin? I have spent some time in a muslim area, even though I'm not muslim, and American freedom is not a phrase that is said very often or even cared about.

It has been reported that many of the men suspected of attempting to blow up UK-US flights in mid-air were from the town of High Wycombe in England. After 9/11, the US attacked Afghanistan, because that was where Al Qaeda was based. Israel has been attacking Lebanon because Hezbollah is based there. Should the UK government now send F-16 fighter jets into High Wycombe and use 500lb bombs to smash this haven of suspected terrorists to pieces?

My criminal record is quite lengthy from 1980-1990. Nothing serious or drug or violence related is on it.

I am finding this is holding me back from many job opportunities and housing.

Is it possible to have my record sealed or handle the expungment process myself and if so, what is the process and the cost?

I am not saying that the threat is not real but what I am suggesting is that they pick and choose when to make the threats public. I told everyone in this forum that this would happen last month and look it has begun. I expect at least one more terror plot to be made public before the Novemer Elections. What do you think?

Let's face it, America is a Terrorist State.

Those lands belong to the British Crown. An international peace keeping force should be deployed to deal with the massive insurgency of bloody foreigners there (after we've bombed the hell out of it), the colonists should be brought into line and those lands should again be made to work for Mother England!

God Save the Queen!

From a military view, this is not debating them or justifying that they should be invading Lebanon. They said they are going to hold off the offensive until the weekend, and try to reach a cease fire. Don't you think they should move massive amounts of troops into Lebanon? It seems like the air attacks can only be so critical when you need to be careful of where you are bombing.

terroists be banned from their Mosques and reported to the authorities by fellow Muslims because Allah surely doesn't want these people taking innocent lives in his name??

The anti-Semitic stuff directed at Joe Lieberman was ubelievable and all from the far left for his support for the war on terror!

The Left-Wing Liberal smear merchants are now all over the mainstream media and have spread like lice on the Net. They are truly misguided and in some cases emotionally disturbed human beings.

Writing today in The Wall Street Journal, former counsel to President Clinton, Lanny Davis of all people, surprised Liberals everywhere when he said: "I came to believe that we liberals couldn't possibly be so intolerant and hateful, because our ideology was famous for ACLU-type commitments to free speech, dissent and, especially, tolerance for those who differed with us. Now in the closing days of the Lieberman primary campaign, I have reluctantly concluded that I was wrong, very, very wrong, to be a liberal now means to be facist and facist loving."

So how do you combat them? Exposition is the best way.
