Someone recently asked. ..what should be done about Hamas ?

I responded that 'they should be eliminated' .

Somehow, Yahoo Katie THINKS Hamas must be some sort of ETHNICITY . She's claiming that I am guilty of 'wanting an entire race or ethnicity to be 'wiped out' . Nevermind all the other bogus abuse reports I received . I was suspended for asking people if they 'remembered when Saddam's forces invaded Kuwait' and all the atrocities committed . Some foolish person reported that one as threats of 'Bodily Harm' . And IMMEDIATELY .. Yahoo suspended my account and sent me an email CLEARLY STATING that I was suspended for threats of 'Bodily Harm' .

The rest of the story ?.... . it's posted in the 'Forum' under the titled post. . .. . " Have You Ever Seen Anything Worse " ? Honest replies are WELCOME !!

What can be done to STOP THE NONSENSE ?

Thank you all .

In my view it is the ease with which both of these Governments are able to pull the wool over their citizen,s eyes.

It is Latin, I believe, and somewhat funny sounding. For example, your lawyer might tell you that you have no right to now go back and try to get past monies for child support for which you never orginally bothered to have court ordered due to the concept of ___________.

I just came back from town and not one young men or women cares. No tears. No quivering lips. What I did see and hear is this:.. "What is Rosy saying today? What did Spears wear today? What's the latest rap song? Is trump still mad at Rosy? What and who was on the view? Not one person is crying for the troops. None!!

the average student now graduates with $17,500 in student loan debt. The average student debt burden in 2004 was almost 60% higher than the mid-1990's. Each year, 200,000 qualified students don't enroll in college because they can't afford it.

...and now the GOP expects people making minimum wage to STILL go to college.

This is not PROGRESS for America.

our President, and the war in Iraq was getting more soldiers killed, would you still go about things the same way?







The reason i ask is becuase the General of the North Vietnamese Army said they were ready to surrender the vietnam war years before the actual end of the war, but seeing the dissent in the U.S. gave them the strength to continue, and i'm wondering if you are capable of learning from history.

President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have committed violations and subversions of the Constitution of the United States of America in an attempt to carry out with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the United States and other nations, by assuming powers of an imperial executive unaccountable to law and usurping powers of the Congress, the Judiciary and those reserved to the people of the United States, by the following acts:

1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of hundereds of thousands of Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.


2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.

3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable.

4) Instituting a secret and illegal wiretapping and spying operation against the people of the United States through the National Security Agency.

5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.

6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnaping, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions on governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.

8) Violations and subversions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the land" under Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes in wars and threats of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq and others and usurping powers of the United Nations and the peoples of its nations by bribery, coercion and other corrupt acts and by rejecting treaties, committing treaty violations, and frustrating compliance with treaties in order to destroy any means by which international law and institutions can prevent, affect, or adjudicate the exercise of U.S. military and economic power against the international community.

9) Acting to strip United States citizens of their constitutional and human rights, ordering indefinite detention of citizens, without access to counsel, without charge, and without opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, based solely on the discretionary designation by the Executive of a citizen as an "enemy combatant."

10) Ordering indefinite detention of non-citizens in the United States and elsewhere, and without charge, at the discretionary designation of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Defense.


11) Ordering and authorizing the Attorney General to override judicial orders of release of detainees under INS jurisdiction, even where the judicial officer after full hearing determines a detainee is wrongfully held by the government.

12) Authorizing secret military tribunals and summary execution of persons who are not citizens who are designated solely at the discretion of the Executive who acts as indicting official, prosecutor and as the only avenue of appellate relief.

13) Refusing to provide public disclosure of the identities and locations of persons who have been arrested, detained and imprisoned by the U.S. government in the United States, including in response to Congressional inquiry.

14) Use of secret arrests of persons within the United States and elsewhere and denial of the right to public trials.

15) Authorizing the monitoring of confidential attorney-client privileged communications by the government, even in the absence of a court order and even where an incarcerated person has not been charged with a crime.

16) Ordering and authorizing the seizure of assets of persons in the United States, prior to hearing or trial, for lawful or innocent association with any entity that at the discretionary designation of the Executive has been deemed "terrorist."

17) Engaging in criminal neglect in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, depriving thousands of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and other Gulf States of urgently needed support, causing mass suffering and unnecessary loss of life.

18) Institutionalization of racial and religious profiling and authorization of domestic spying by federal law enforcement on persons based on their engagement in noncriminal religious and political activity.

19) Refusal to provide information and records necessary and appropriate for the constitutional right of legislative oversight of executive functions.

20) Rejecting treaties protective of peace and human rights and abrogation of the obligations of the United States under, and withdrawal from, international treaties and obligations without consent of the legislative branch, and including termination of the ABM treaty between the United States and Russia, and rescission of the authorizing signature from the Treaty of Rome which served as the basis for the International Criminal Court.

I wish everyone the best in 2007 and May God Bless America!

He has made it very clear that he doesn't go by public opinion (or not concerned), but instead insists he knows what's best for America. Almost seems like we shouldn't worry about Iraq because he can/will handle it.

Saddam never attacked the US so does that mean that the US should never attack him? If so it would stand to reason that the US should have never attacked Hitler either, is this the opinion of most of the people here?
Saddam did advocate the destruction of the US where as Hitler was less vocal on this issue.
