Iranian don't want another war. They have already seen one.

Iranian don't want to change their government. It took years for Iran to have some stability after the 1979 revolution.

Another change will require many more years of adjustment and they don't want that. Those who seek conflict are wrong. What would President Bush gain from a regime change in Iran?

When you are offended by a Cartoon depicting Muhammed as Violent, or the Pope reciting a statement by an Emporer depicting Islam as Violent, Is it really the best reponse to take to the streets and validate those accusations?

I know the US has the best military, but why can't they give everyone the training Rangers get? I'm talking about the US Army, i think a regular recruit should get Ranger training, and that will be our regular Army Soldiers, and then Special Forces should be like the Seals Training. And for Marines, they should get even tougher, or at least Longer, they are one of the best, why not be better?
Air Force training is a joke, i mean come on! Anyone who joins the Air Force is considered a wussie, they should get ranger training too, and that will be our regular Airmen. So then they could be involved in the fighting as well.

You know what?? why can't they just train everybody like they train the Special Operations?? We will be more powerful and stronger. Our regular training should be at least 4 months and special forces should be over a year.

Anyone agree? lol

I am married to a deployed Soldier in Iraq. I found out he has been emailing,and asking girls for nasty pictures and talking dirty to them online. In the meantime this same "guy" freaks out if I go anywhere,even to the store! I do not talk to any guys,or even care to. I mail him care packages,food,whatever he needs,handle all our finances and home,plus 3 little girls. I send him anything he needs as far as pictures or magazines,,,but it seems he is always out to meet people,and only nasty hoes or "hotties" looking for a desert Pen Pal.{I was sent an email he specifically said that in to another friend of his}. Why should I be home waiting on him,being loyal,trusting and up all night waiting on his *** to get online when he has 15 other girls I just found out sending him nasty things through snail mail to Iraq? Do all Military Guys think they are entitled to this?? I was warned I have to admit..not to date Military,but is this how they all are?? We ARE MARRIED..But im Filing DIVORCE.

Oh I know other people like that, the terrorists that follow Bin Laden... and don't tell me that you don't blow up buildings for Bush, if he told you it's for the "war on terror" , you would!

Here's my suggestion [I've already posted this on another person's answer]
Here's what we do:
For every one of "them" that we catch, we find out where they're from, and then we find one useless American, like say most of Hollywood, or bums that don't [not those who can't] work and send them into that person's country.

I say start with Tom Cruise, both Mr. and Mrs. Britney Spears, and most lawyers.

Any others that you'd add to the list?

I believe that it is unfair. An example would be O.J. Simpson. He was found NOT-GUILTY, but paid millions. I call BS on that one. I believe he is innocent. If he did it, props to getting away with it my man.

Signs Of Fascism
Powerful and Continuing Nationalism
Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottoes, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.


Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights
Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.


Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.


Supremacy of the Military
Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.


Rampant Sexism
The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy.


Controlled Mass Media
Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.


Obsession with National Security
Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.


Religion and Government are Intertwined
Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions.


Corporate Power is Protected
The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.


Labor Power is Suppressed
Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed .


Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts
Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts is openly attacked, and governments often refuse to fund the arts.


Obsession with Crime and Punishment
Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.


Rampant Cronyism and Corruption
Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.


Fraudulent Elections
Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.
