Politics & Government - 15 February 2007

Since granting them independence over two centuries ago, the yankees have turned into the most belligerent, aggressive, war mongering, politically corrupt nation in history. Clearly, granting them independence in 1776 was a big mistake. They lack moral and political leadership, and with their simplistic and naive vision of the world are, I believe, very likely to lead us into a third world war before very long. Surely,the time has come for us (i.e. the English) to withdraw their independence as they are clearly too immature as a people to be able to value or appreciate it.

I believe it is our duty as Englishmen to withold and suspend their independence, and bring them back under our control, until they can prove they are sufficiently responsible to deserve their democracy and freedoms.

Anyone share my views?

I am sure that I read somewhere that Iran has lots of soldiers because of its current dispute with Pakistan over the Kashmir.

Does this not pose a serious problem for the USA ?

So many times I’ve heard war supporters try to compare the Iraq War to WWII. I’ve seen parallels drawn and heard all the clever patriotic clichés. But amidst all the bravado and anti-terrorist drum beating, no one has ever addressed the most compelling issue: why isn’t the Iraqi War a massive military offensive? Why are there only 150, 000+ troops on the ground? If we truly want to win this war on terror, why isn’t the effort a “full court press”?

We sit on here and bicker about silly stuff while in my opinion our government and our two party system are broken. Corruption is the name of the game in Washington and we are all the victims. I say keep kicking out the incumbants every two years until we flush the system. It's time to tell our government they work for us, not us for them. Once that is accomplished, term limits. Comfort is death in Washington, it's the killer of decency and integrity. That's my suggestion to help America.

The free nations of the world once had opportunity to address the insidious rise of the Nazi ideology in its formative years when it could have been dispatched without great cost. But they delayed, and the result was atomic bombs falling on cities, 50 million people dead worldwide, and the swastika's shadow nearly plunging this planet into Cimmerian night.
Winston Churchill's words of warning far preceded such tragic events. He said, ``If you will not fight when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may be a worse moment. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory because it is still better to perish than to live as slaves.''
If so-called enlightened Germans fell prey to the Nazi ideology, why do we not believe Third World Muslims can also fall prey in large numbers to this jihadist ideology? History does indeed repeat itself and each time the price goes up.
Jihadists believe they have a critical advantage over free people in the world. They believe their will is far stronger than ours and that they need only to persevere to break our resolve. We need to ask ourselves first, not whether the Nation should have gone to war but whether the Nation should lose this war .
Will jihadists break the will of the world's free people or not? Will they be able to hide long enough to gain access to nuclear or other weapons of mass destruction? If we do allow nations like Iran to gain nuclear weapons, what will we tell our children when they face nuclear jihad, perhaps even in this generation? If liberals are willing to see freedom defeated in Iraq , are they willing to take responsibility for what will almost certainly follow? If this entire Nation was riveted and heartbroken when two airplanes hit two buildings in New York, how will we feel when an entire American city is in nuclear flames?
If Speaker Pelosi and other Democrats are willing to vote against monitoring terrorist conversations on the telephone, or tracking their financial transactions, or protecting our border from terrorist insurgency, or effectively interrogating terrorists in custody, or sending reinforcements to our troops on the battlefield, then the question that cries for an answer is what are they willing to do to defeat Islamic terrorism? What is their plan?

law enforcement placed someone who was diagnosed Bi-Polar and had a history of drug and alcohol abuse behind the wheel of a school bus in the very community they are sworn to protect and then put this person in situations where drugs were readily available ?

Hannity, Coulter, Limbaugh, Savage etc.., all promote hate on their shows, sometimes even violence against Liberals.

Ann Coulter quotes; "My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he
did not go to the New York Times Building."

"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity."

"We need to execute people like John Walker in order to physically intimidate liberals, by making them realize that they can be killed, too."
