I always heard that people wanted him to admit that he made some mistakes and that would lead to "healing" but I haven't seen that. Same old hatred abounds.

I just saw the movie.

It was one of the greatest of what I have watched on my entire life.


From watching the movie, I pondered "what made those terrorists to behave that way? Those terrorists acted so desperate."

Why do those terrorists hate the West? I think this is actually the real core of the issue, when dealing with the terrorism.

I do not think the terrorists hate the West simply because they are "bad", "hate freedom" or "religious fanatics". I think they are the humans, after all and there has to be something that makes them so desparate and hate the West.


I want to hear your opinions; what do you think make the terrorists to hate the West so bad?

My thinking is, the history (colonization, and the general struggle between the West and Mid East) AND the American policy (strong support to Israel).

Although I do not suppor him, Bin Laden once said from his audio message, "West must appologize for the crimes it had commited."

Does this have any clue?

I'm so very very sick and tired of hearing about the CLINTONS. I hope and pray that the American public does not put another CLINTON in the Whitehouse. 8 Years was more than enough...

If we were to vote today, how would you vote? Would you vote for OBAMA or CLINTON? What a choice we have.....geesh!!! Maybe things will change in time and a better candidate will surface.

Well, as you know he didn't pay any attention. Now Hilliary and me is gonna have to go back over there and put things back in shape. This Iraq mess and all the waste is a dang shame but we will be willing to fix it back up again. You can trust Hillary to do it right.

My concerns are thus: Bush admits that mistakes have been made concerning the war, but his answer is to send more troops? Seems like a band-aid for a bullet wound.
We got rid of Saddam, dismantled his murderous government, & helped Iraq to start a new government. Why are our troops still there? Are we really fighting terrorism? No! This is not just an opinion here. By Bushs own admission our troops are there to stop SECTARIAN violence between Iraqis. Study your history of the region, these people have been fighting ever since they could. Honestly, is there anything we can do to stop them from doing what theyve been taught raised & socialized to do from birth? Iraq war is protecting US? The facts say diff. 5+ yrs after 9/11 & we're vulnerable now as we were then. Less than 10% of bags are checked at airports & less than 5% of incoming cargo containers into US ports are checked. Money better spent ACTUALLY securing US instead of war that creates more terrorists & enemies.

In India, we dont have any sort of self recognization. How about giving a social security number for the Indian citizens, who can use that for every purpose in their daily life, simplifying the way they live...
and can someone tell where and how to start the idea?
thank you

The motel in question has had a bad reputation in the past. But thats just it, it was in the past. For the last few years its been cleaned up, and the cops stopped the harassment. but after hiring four new officers recently it has started again. Is it legal for them to harass innocent people??

Is there such a site that (at a minimum) posts names or at least last names of deceased soldiers in Iraq? Or maybe the city they're from?

From the beginning of our country, every US President has lied; especially war time presidents. From Roosevelts illegal manipulation of the Supreme Court to Lincoln's untrue emancipation proclamation. The first casuality of war and pre-war is the truth. An establishment of a democratic Iraq pursued by Bush is for sure a brilliant statesman's move for thousands of reasons. One of the main ones is not only a more stable Middle East that can better control and help irradicate these silly cowardly terrorists, but also it stifles the threat of China becoming the next fascist Superpwer by helping to control the weapons trade and the flow of oil which is still the world's trump card.

It sound pretty unlawful to me but I see many people do it over the Internet. They scan books, encode songs and distribute them. Also they say "anyone who download this file must own the actual book/CD, otherwise you have to delete the file within 24 hours".

Well, those distributors are surely not copyright holders. Do they have the right to do this? Is there really this kind of law exist? (It would be great if someone could show me links to legal documents related to this.)

or is it just a coincidence that while he was there this 'so called' race bullying occured on a t.v show only the saddest people on earth would ever want to watch let alone be on?? I ask the question because suddenly there were over 10,000 calls to complain. I can't believe that 10,000 even watched it let alone had the intelligence to work out what was going on!! The only conclusion I can make is that Gordon was sponsored by 'vodaphone and took 10,000 mobiles with him, after all the 'victim' is worshipped by the Indian public!!
