Politics & Government - 23 February 2007

Bill Clinton administration was respected and revered throughout the world. Now everyone in the world thinks that most of the americans are imperialistic subhuman scum with a desire to bring the world's end. Everyone knows that there are draft avoiders and awols ruling america today. And many people think that americans deserve WHAT IS ABOUT TO COME AT THEM!!!

What If They Gave a War and Everyone Came

What if they gave a war and everyone came;
Every senator’s son and daughter.
Every senator too and me and you:
Hindu, Buddhist, Christian, Moslem, Jew, in barter.

What if Yale and Harvard went port to starboard,
Sending every scholastic son and daughter.
And “Think Tanks” had to go, committing “who know”
To clean up after the slaughter.
Yes, there’d still be war, but we’d know what for
When we buried our brave sons and daughters.

Iraq and 'The son of Star Wars' missile defence programme are the most prominent examples i can think of. We settled our debts with the US last year when the loan that they lended us in 1947 was paid off, so why is this government following old patterns of behaviour when it comes to global strategy?

Iran refused to abandon it's Nuclear Programme.
Iran claimed it is for Energy technology.

Now this year 2007, Iran has begun 5000 Centrifidge... they are going to increase it to 54000 per year!
But 54000 centrifidge a year is too much... able to develope at least 12-48 of Nuclear Warheads!

I'm not sure...
But the world are worried about the Iranian Nation of developing Nuclear Weapons?

What to you think?

What is the current situation reguarding the US military on St Kilda?

Bill Oddie spoke breifly about it on a recent program a number of 'masts and a power generator' the size of a large caravan' he said.

I wasn't aware that the US Military had any sort of presence there at all?

Below from Wiki:
The MoD base is part of the Hebrides missile tracking range based in Benbecula, where test firings and flights are carried out. The Ministry of Defence leases St Kilda from the National Trust for Scotland for a nominal fee.

Do you really think that ONLY soldiers in the the military should be willing to DIE for our freedoms and liberties?-I can't believe the cowards, the SHEEP! that have no business being a part of this country, to go along with the government, taking freedoms liberties and privacy, from us, using security as an a excuse! Cowards have no principals

As an Enlishman,it has always amazed me that the American army is thought of as the worst.As they have much more money to spend on weapons,it amazes me that they give their soldiers guns with bent barrells,missiles with faultly targeting and helicopters that have poor visability.At least if they had proper equipment they could fire at the enemy.

A client ask you for help in a financial merger situation. You decline because the matter is outside your expertise and refer the company to a fellow practitioner who is knowledgeable in financial affairs. The fellow practitioner is so appreciative he sends you a check for$500.

in my personal point of view, Israel has no right do defend themselves because they are invaders of a land that was meant for all to enjoy.
presidents of the USA have constantly said that "israel have the right to defend themselves"...but against what?
the people who they stole, freedom, lives,and a right to hapiness from?
they are cowards, they fight while hiding in armored tanks, they kill from planes...against people who are farmers, mothers, teachers...people who only want peace.
there are atleast hundred of thousands of children and women killed every year.
children who just are too inoccent to realized tht they are in a warzone...children who want to sleep at night knowing that the next day they can live to see the day ahead.
what can you say or do to erase a memory of a child to see their parents head discarded from their body, their limbs all over the place...their house turned to a grave?
this is no justice, this is wrong...it better that no child could ever live than to see

uranium enrichment for weapons
when america did it no one stopped them even though america intended to use it against another country
the americans themselves supported terrorists like al quaeda, mujahedin, taliban and supported dictators and oppressors like saddam hussein and the shah of iran
now when iran is doing exactly what the Americans did decades ago america is threatening iran with war
im not sayin supportin terrorists is right they have attacked my country as well both the ones who used to be supported by americans and the other who were supported by arabs
but i hate when someone preaches somethin and practices somethin else and threatens other when they dont follow the preaching
and iran will never ever use WMDs against isreal its just propaganda weapon or psychological warfare they will lose everything and will be in complete isolation for such actions even from the closest of allies ie. russia india china and other arab states and they know that very well

Does any one else feel that the Govenment is using "Safety" and "Security" as reasons to take away Freedom, Liberty, and Privacy away from the American People? Do you ever feel the government is trying to ease in control like the Gestapo of Nazi Germany?

First it was Bombay,then this recent blast.What are we paying the railways for?If they cannot take care of the Common Man.A Minister or a VIP or any "important" person on any given day has commandos /police armed and ready to protect his "valuable" life.Why is it that the railway cant Afford the Security for the"100's of common life" that use it and hence contribute to nation building.Sending hundreds of troops and police after a tragedy has almost become an eyewash.How many time can you fool the people.Every time a tragedy strikes, they wake and give promises only to be shelved later.For heavens sake learn from such disasters so that people can "Travel to life and meet the loved ones not death".
