I read an article about us soldiers in afghanistan. Basically they were sent up and down a mountain a couple of times for a mission (no helo was available). They had to carry their supplies with them but they only had 6 bottles of water to drink per day. This obviously caused dehydration. So to fight it they hydrated intravenously.

Is this true? Do soldiers give each other shots to stay hydrated? If so, how effective is it? How long does one shot keep you hydrated?

Col. Robert Bowman, PhD, U.S. Air Force (ret) – Director of Advanced Space Programs Development under Presidents Ford and Carter. U.S. Air Force fighter pilot with over 100 combat missions. (PhD in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering, Cal Tech).
Video 9/11/04: "A lot of these pieces of information, taken together, prove that the official story, the official conspiracy theory of 9/11 is a bunch of hogwash. It’s impossible. … There’s a second group of facts having to do with the cover up. … Taken together these things prove that high levels of our government don’t want us to know what happened and who’s responsible.…

Who gained from 9/11? Who covered up crucial information about 9/11? And who put out the patently false stories about 9/11 in the first place? When you take those three things together, I think the case is pretty clear that it’s highly placed individuals in the administration with all roads passing through Dick Cheney.

In the fall of 1938, Neville Chamberlain, the British Prime Minister, traveled to Berchtesgaden to meet with German Chancellor Adolf Hitler. Hitler had just threatened to invade Czechoslovakia unless Britain and France stood aside and allowed Germany to annex the Sudetenland.


At that meeeting, Italy's Benito Mussolini suggested a four-power conference between Britain, France, Germany and Italy to resolve the issue. Czechoslovakia's Eduard Benes was excluded from the meeting that would decide the future of his country.

Chamberlain, and France's Edouard Daladier traveled to Munich in late September.

Desperate to avoid war, Chamberlain and Daladier agreed that Germany could have the Sudetenland. In return, Hitler promised to drop any further territorial demands in Europe.

On September 29, 1939, Adolf Hitler, Neville Chamberlain, Edouard Daladier and Benito Mussolini signed the Munich Agreement which transferred the Sudetenland to Germany.

When Czechoslovakia's Eduard Benes protested at this decision, Neville Chamberlain told him that Britain would be unwilling to go to war over the issue of the Sudetenland.

The Munich Agreement was popular with most people in Britain because it appeared to have prevented a war with Germany. However, some politicians, including Winston Churchill and Anthony Eden, attacked the agreement.

These critics pointed out that no only had the British government behaved dishonorably, but it had lost the support of Czech Army, one of the best in Europe.

Neville Chamberlain came home to cheering crowds, waving the Munich Agreement and optimistically announcing it represented "Peace in out time."

Less than a year later, the Wehrmacht invaded Poland, beginning the Second World War.

The Iraq Survey Group was tasked with re-evaluating the war in Iraq and to come up with recommendations leading to its conclusion under favorable conditions to the United States.

The ISG fumbled and hemmed and hawed over the Iraq issue, in the end suggesting a plan where the US could pull out and blame the Iraqis for not being ready.

The ISG is headed by James Baker, who during Bush 41's administration, famously snapped, "F*** the Jews! They don't vote for us anyway!" Baker was widely seen by the Israeli establishment as one of the least Israel-friendly -- if not downright anti-Semitic -- member of the first Bush cabinet during the first Gulf War.

The spirit of the ISG final report's conclusions could be summed up using the exact words of Baker's 1991 outburst. It's recommendation could be called the "Neville Chamberlain Model for Bringing Peace in Our Time" and it proposes using the same outline.

Only this time, Israel is being cast in the role of Czechoslovakia.

Baker's group proposes a four-power conference to discuss handing over more of the West Bank and the Golan Heights (Israel's Sudentenland) -- with Iran standing in for Germany and Syria standing in for Mussolini's Italy.

In return, Iran and Syria will promise to help 'stabilize' Iraq. The ISG report is popular with the US left because they believe it might avoid a war with Iran and Syria.

And the report's critics, including Senator John McCain, are echoing Chamberlain's critics, calling it dishonorable and warning of the consequences of losing Israel as our most important ally in the Middle East.

Of course, Israel will be excluded from the conference, as was Czechoslovakia in 1939. And for the same reason.

Once you've already made up your mind to betray somebody, there is little point in giving him a dissenting voice.

That's why Benes wasn't invited to Munich. And why the ISG recommends that Israel be excluded from discussions aimed at its dissolution.

In his vision of the last days, the prophet Zechariah predicted that "ALL the people of the earth" will "be gathered together against" Jerusalem. (Zechariah 12:3)

The prophet Ezekiel predicted that when the Russian/Persian Gog Magog Alliance makes its move against the mountains of Israel in Ezekiel 38-39, the rest of the world reacts by launching a weak diplomatic protest:

"Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?" (Ezekiel 38:13)

According to Scripture, in the last days, Israel stands alone, without an ally in the world. God Himself comes to Israel's rescue.

"And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone." (Ezekiel 38:22)

Interestingly, that is exactly what Iran and Syria are promising to do to Israel.

My money is on Israel.

Marvin Pierce Bush (born October 22, 1956) is the youngest son of George H. W. ... Marvin Bush is a former director of HCC Insurance Holdings, Inc (HCC),

That Jonathan Bush’s Riggs Bank has been found guilty of laundering terrorist funds and fined a US-record $25 million must embarrass his nephew George, but it's still no justification for leaping to paranoid conclusions.

That George Bush's brother Marvin sat on the board of the Kuwaiti-owned company which provided electronic security to the World Trade Centre, Dulles Airport and United Airlines means nothing more than you must admit those Bush boys have done alright for themselves.

That George Bush found success as a businessman only after the investment of Osama’s brother Salem and reputed al Qaeda financier Khalid bin Mahfouz is just one of those things - one of those crazy things.

That Osama bin Laden is known to have been an asset of US foreign policy in no way implies he still is.

That al Qaeda was active in the Balkan conflict, fighting on the same side as the US as recently as 1999, while the US protected its cells, is merely one of history's little aberrations.

The claims of Michael Springman, State Department veteran of the Jeddah visa bureau, that the CIA ran the office and issued visas to al Qaeda members so they could receive training in the United States, sound like the sour grapes of someone who was fired for making such wild accusations.

The United States still uses the old measuring system, like in., yd., and lbs. No other country in the world uses this. Also, Brazil grows most of it's fuel, like 95% and imports only 5%. Why doesn't the US grow ethnol and recycle more? The gasoline isn't going to last forever. Besides, the Middle Eastern countries that we buy our oil from hates us, I would go so far to say they would wipe our country off of the face of the Earth if they could. But of course, we brought this on ourselves because we set up their goverment some years ago, thinking they would be all grateful and sell us oil, but their not stupid. They know that most of the world's oil is right under their feet. I just know that we're going to get another C average president, and he's going to start another war over there in the Middle East, then we will be in deep trouble, because by then they will have so had it with us, and they will just give us the finger and cut off our oil supply. We must start getting it together!!

I notice that anyone in this country can vote. Through voting we are able to hold our leaders responsible. Yet, who exactly holds the voters responsible for making bad descisions? Who voters responsible for voting for corrupt politicans that offer them bennies at the expense of the civilization?

The Contras were frequently accused of being responsible for multiple political assassinations, kidnappings, and the widespread use of torture. They were opposed by many Nicaraguans as well as foreign human rights organizations who viewed their tactics, which included the targeting of civilians, as brutal and indiscriminate.
