Every nation which is developed or has developed has one thing in common. The common citizen of that country takes pride to say he is from that country. He wears its flag. Wants its country to grow in might both industrial and military.
In India people wear American flag. People are so corrupt that roads with 100 year gurantee gets torn appart in 5 months. Even out side Taj Mahal where so many foreigners come has brocken roads central channel, no water and beggars roaming all around.
The people have no self pride eg.
police men are found taking bribes from truck drivers oppenly, every govt dept is corrupt top to bottom,
people keep their streets dirty,
Piss every where,
Throw garbage every where,
A sense that our country should be best is missing,
etc etc.

Ok so my friend had her wallet stolen out of her car. (id, credit cards, money etc.) Somebody actually broke a window to get it out. The money was spent and she never got her id back. They soon caught 2 suspects. (credit cards unused). One of them admitted to stealing it. Now, like 6 months later she has a court date...what could the minimum and maximum charges be for stealing? I do not think there was too much money in the wallet..probably like $50 or something.

Each ethnic, national or religious group can say that they are chosen by God.. etc...

We cannot make oue own interpretation of the Bible, because we can change the context according to political interests!
For example: Israel in the Bible is not the israel created in 1848, and also the people are all different. It is like trying to say that all Mexicans are Aztecs and they are also chosen people in their beliefs.... And that's not true because mexican is a Nation and there are also Muslims and Jewish mexicans...so We all are humans and God is only one! God loves all humankind and don'y give preferences!!!

My Grandmother was married to an air force SMSgt in the 40s. They had two children and were stationed in England. He left her, did not divorce her, and stayed in England while she came back to the states. He died in 1978, and we're assuming his common law wife received all his military benefits even though he was still married to my grandmother. Is my grandmother entitled to any compensation???? Who do i contact

Yes, City bonuses are enormous perhaps obscene but they are paid on results. If Harman and her ministerial colleagues were paid on results they would be claiming benefit! The hypocrisy of politicians turns my stomach.

Pentagon moves to increase U.S. troop levels in Iraq By Will Dunham

WASHINGTON - The U.S. military is delaying the departure of thousands of soldiers from Iraq while speeding the arrival of thousands more as a way to keep more troops on the ground to handle unrelenting violence, U.S. officials said on Monday.

The United States, in a bid to stem a rise in sectarian violence between Sunni and Shi'ite Muslims that has heightened concern over civil war, has increased its troop count in the past two months to the current level of 142,000 and more to come.

A brigade of roughly 3,800 soldiers from the Army's 1st Armored Division, based in Germany, that was due to have left Iraq in January is being held in place for a little under two months, said defense officials who asked not to be named because the decision has not been formally announced.

These soldiers, serving in the volatile area of Iraq are needed. However, the crying has started. The troops wanted to go home.

It's a common arguement that illegals get welfare and drain our economy.Besides the fact that they cannot recieve any assistance unless they have social security numbers.I mean,they could recieve for their legal children,right?Anti illegals complain about this alot.But WHERE did the illegal immigrants get this idea for applying for welfare?I'm sure they didn't walk across the border with this knowledge,seeing as how Mexico doesn't offer full welfare benefits like we do.Is it possible(gasp)that they learned about it from us americans?Besides the fact that americans who work in the clinics and hospitals have practically shoved the information in their faces.If someone offers you something free,won't you apply for it?Most people would,if they thought they could get it.Anyway,for all the hooplah over illegals and welfare,aren't we the same ones who first introduced this to them?Why be mad at them?Why not be mad and blame the government for giving them this info.?

If you get approved for early release by the prison and by home confinement and the day you are to leave your probation officer slaps a VOP on you, once you go to court and clear up the VOP, is the early releases still good or do you have to go through the process again. The prison early release is still good, but does home confinement have to approve you again?

Seriously,... Alot of you, including myself,... will either be elderly or 6ft under, when things start to get desperate. The Planet is dying, the signs are in the news every day.

Do you think the future you're working for, saving for yourself and your children will be better? What measures should you be preparing for? When many of the things we take for granted, become scarce and hard to come by.

A lot of the youngsters these days want to party, maybe they're serious about living it up. Because some are aware of the situation & the ramifications of our potential future.

Sure there are some extremist survivalists around, but what about you? How will you prepare for when things get really rough? What can you do?


Its not whether I'm right, but what can you do for yourself - the signs are there to deny or accept.

You do have a choice.

"[Y]ou could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down"

Comment he made Sept 30th of 05.

This is crazy and a very extreem comment that he had made.....

1. Blacks make up well beyond the majority of prisons in the United States.
2. They are responsible for most thefts, murders muggings etc....
3. Blacks have the highest AIDS mortality rate of all demographics

YET..... they are the minority....

This is something most don't speak of and I was curious on everyone's honest opinion of the issue......
