I mean the united states just invaded a neibooring country that gave the U.S. little provocation, So iran needs some insurance i.e. nukes, if history teaches anything countries with nukes don't get invaded, Look at isreal its violated 68 U.N. resolutions http://christianparty.net/israelunresolutions.htm
but since isreal has nukes no ones(not even Iran) ever going to mess with them or look at china , it gives out excecution sentences like parking tickets but they got nukes so no trouble there.

What happens to all this 'hard working illegals' rhetoric when we build 'berry bot' and 'lettuce bot' and 'burger bot'? If we can put a robot on mars, why not put one in McDonalds? Further, I'll bet if you put the pay at 10 bucks an hour, you'd see plenty of bona-fide americans out there pickin' berries, and they wouldn't make an all-day job of it, either.

Ok so everybody knows that the soldiers are brave. So they are over in the war fighting for you but then some come back to USA and say Americans should not be there because it is Iraq civil war. What do you say to them? Do you say they are wrong? How do you know unless you go there youself? Not every soldier say this, ok. But some do.
In America you had something like civil war and Lincon was there ok. Is it right for other countries to be in America when you had civil war? I don’t know if they were but would it be ok for them to be in the middle of you fight.
I don’t know. I am just asking. I am not in fighting so I can’t say. But the soldiers that say America should get out are you calling them a coward?. I hope not unless you go fight instead of them.
So just because if they do not agree that America should be there does that make them a bad soldier. NO. Let them come home.

Yep, there are a bunch of racist intolerant facist bigoted murderous bstrds out there that think I'm a sl@g because I don't cover my hair, and that the blokes are drunkards and we're all going to hell. And I like a lot of you would like anyone who wants Sharia law brought into British law to just please leave.

But saying we should ban them all from flying? Comparing them to the nazis (who by the way, although no one will ever admit it for fear of upsetting the Jews, suffered terribly at the hands of the Russians in POW camps after WWII)? Do you want to end up as bigoted as the arses we're talkin about?

Israel go marching into Lebanon and no one stops them, after occupiing Palestine for however many decades. If anyone critisises them they scream holocaust.

I believe some one should not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character, to quote an amazing human being.

ie, being a muslem doesn't make you bad, being a fooking tw@t makes you bad

Most will agree that WWII was worthwhile. A tyrant was attempting to take over the world and we helped to stop him. This required that the American public assist in the effort in many ways, including belt-tightening so that our government could pay for the war effort.

So, if the war in Iraq is worthwhile, why are we borrowing hundreds of billions of dollars from our children and grandchildren to pay for it?

And could they let Bush know how it is done, how to capture them, and how to avoid going to war? I sure admire how they handle things, even their July bombings from last year, they treated the culprits as criminals, not enemy combatants. ANd they found them...

Sure we kill a bunch of Saddm monkeys when we first went in and we cleaned up a few city blocks now and then but the vast number of Iraqies are being killed by insurgants funded by Iran. Shouldn't Cindy Sheehan be protesting them since they are the ones doing most if not all of the killing now?

Islam is the farthest right any human can go. Take any issue and Muslims represent the extreme end of the right, yet leftists apologize for Islamists based on a "enemy of enemy" theory.

My experience is, when a leftist is well educated about Islam, they will have more contempt for it than a jew whose had his whole family killed by islamists.

I encourage all leftists to study Islam in depth...you will rue the day you uttered a single word of apology for it.

When Dick Cheney is in an undisclosed location is he really in a time machine. Did George Bush send him to the Middle Ages to cause the great plague by planting infected rats? To Ireland to cause the potato famine by poisoning the crops? To Germany to cause WWII? Etc. .. After all we do know that he and George put on diving gear to blow up the damn in Louisiana, that he and George flew those planes in the WTC towers and parachuted out at the last moment. How do we get the American people to wake up and see this irrefutable truth that is so evident to all the self-described smart people?

Deja Vu for Driver in Deadly Crash

The Associated Press

YUMA, Ariz.
A man accused of trying to flee from Border Patrol agents before crashing a vehicle packed with illegal immigrants, killing nine, was accused of leading authorities on a similarly dangerous chase last year, federal court records show.

After that chase, Adan Pineda Doval, 20, was sentenced on a misdemeanor charge, according to the records.

Pineda is in federal custody on a charge of felony transportation of illegal aliens for Monday's crash more than 30 miles north of Yuma, which also injured a dozen immigrants.

Federal officials said he was trying to avoid a Border Patrol checkpoint and led agents on a chase before trying to make a U-turn and overturning the Chevrolet Suburban he was driving.

Pineda led agents on a similar pursuit north of Yuma in June 2005, according to documents filed in U.S. District Court in Yuma.

"During the pursuit the defendant drove erratically, swerving toward (Arizona Department of Public Safety) officers and Border Patrol agents, putting the lives of the agents and his passengers in danger," federal officials alleged in a statement included with the 2005 complaint against Pineda.

Pineda had entered the U.S. illegally near Andrade, Calif., and was charged with illegal entry. The federal statement listed several more serious crimes, including aggravated assault against a law enforcement officer and endangerment, but he was sentenced to six months in a federal facility on the misdemeanor entry count less than a week after the crash.

Pineda apparently received a plea deal that federal prosecutors call a "flip-flop" - used because there are so many smuggling cases, said Ann Harwood, a spokeswoman for the Arizona U.S. Attorney's Office.

In a flip-flop, normally offered to smugglers who didn't endanger those they were smuggling, the defendant is charged with a felony and a misdemeanor but is allowed to plead guilty only to the lesser charge.

Harwood told The Sun of Yuma that without knowing the evidence against Pineda in the first case she could not say whether he should have been prosecuted on more serious charges.

Pineda is charged only with one felony in Monday's incident but may face further counts, federal officials said.
