The Palestinians are now in open civil war because of the policies of Israel and the US. Starving sanctions has led to the breakdown of the Civil Service. Is this the best way to bring stability to the Middle East

Yes we all know that all the democrats are pissed at bush for us going to war, but the thing is thats only becuase they only hear the bad things about it on the news. Did you know how many children in Iraq are going to school now and getting a education? They can do that with out the fear of being killed! Plus you guys think your freedom is taken away because of wire tapping. They are only doing it for OUR SAFETY!! Would wather not have and have another 9/11/? Also democarats think that 9/11 was a inside job. Well I can say to the hell with YOU! How could you even think that? Democrats just try to find ways to bash at Bush. Then when they find one they make it a HUGE deal. So you democrats think that all of what Bush has done is bad but think about what he has done. There can be bad sides and good sides to what he has done. And well wouldnt you want to look at what he has done in a a good and postive way then make a huge deal about the bad? If you dont then your just igorant.

Washington is ignoring this very danderous threat by the North Koreans, meanwhile is destroying the middle East , why the difference? The real and present danger to the United States is and will come from Asia!

I feel like the President should be held accountable, if the public doesn't approve of his actions. Saying one thing in his campaign, and doing another is telling a lie. What about lie detector test? Shouldn't some form of forcing him to do what he says he will do be applied to his position? Would it be different than any employee taking a drug test? How much should he be allowed to get away with without concrete proof he is telling the truth? Isn't there too much hid from the public in the name of national security? Shouldn't the public have a right to make sure he isn't telling us lies? The current watch dog system, does it really work?

Please keep your guns!

BUT isn't it time for some bullet control? Imagine making an id on every bullet! It is very possible. All murders could be identified by the bullets they purchased.

What do you think?

Maybe yu don't know, but the USA senators have apppoved a law for turturing strangers in the USA land. I suppose that G.W.B. will sign it up (approve, I mean).

Aren't you guys, in certain sense, returning to medieval ages? Turture in 2006? That's crazy! And more: in a civilized country. First, how many of you knew this I'm talking about? I think you do bc you here are well informed. But the majority of US people don't, I guess.

Torture is against Christian ethics. For sure.

Consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theater of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of 2112 deaths. That gives a firearms death rate of 60 per 100,000. The firearms death rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000 for the same period. That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in the U.S.Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq.

What is the lie to which I am referring? The lie is that the more gun control we have the safer the citizens are. The lie is that if citizens don't have guns, crime will go down. The TRUTH is that the law abiding will follow the law and the criminals won't. That is why they are called criminals. Taking weapons out of the hands of honest citizens just makes them more vulnerable to the predators.

School chidren at a very young age are forced to shut their mind and just adapt to rote learning. Jana gana mana is the foundation for this memorise and vomit process. This is the reason, inspite of having millions of science and engineering graduates, we are afraid to innovate and leave that risk to others.

I dont think that was the right thing to do. None of those problems with terrorism or with Iraq has been solved. All thats been happening is killing of soldiers, crazed sucide bombers, and civilians. This war has turned into a religous war. Muslims against Christians. I also think its too late to pull out of Iraq now. I believe that nobody in the government knows a damn thing about how to stop this war or how to get out. So I guess for years to come the government is going to be wasting billions upon billions of dollars on this useless war. All of this is just my opinion, What do you guys think?

This bill redifines the Geneva conventions and allows for harsher treatement of detainees. We pull out of Iraq, and we find ourselves fighting a country with an organized Army, how would we feel if they played around with the Geneva Conventions and allowed harsh treatment of American soldiers? Would our Govt. say they can't do that even though we did, what makes anyone think that other countries won't redefine it either when fighting wars.
