Honestly believe 9/11 was a conspiracy? How can anyone believe our elected leader could plot to kill thousands of people on home soil? Especially when:

a. Said president was only in office 7 months when this tragedy occurred.

b. The media would be on this like a fly on poo....There would be no suppressing it, I don't care who runs it.

c. Hundreds of eyewitnesses gave the same story. Was this mass hypnosis?

d. Dozens of structural engineers' explainations on how the towers fell.

I am sure there are many more credible reasons, but to me these are the biggies.

The United Nations charter has a provision which was agreed to by the United States formulated by the United States in fact, after World War II. It says that from now on, no nation can use armed force without the permission of the U.N. Security Council. They can use force in connection with self-defense, but a country can't use force in anticipation of self-defense. Regarding Iraq, the last Security Council resolution essentially said, “Look, send the weapons inspectors out to Iraq, have them come back and tell us what they've found -- then we'll figure it out from there.” The U.S. was impatient, and decided to invade Iraq -- which was all pre-arranged of course. So, the United States went to war, in violation of the charter. Making the war in Iraq an “illegal” war.

by ignoring known problems at military hospitals and not going public in order to avoid embarrassment?

These brave men and women they are quick to laud are quickly forgotten when Repub leaders silence Murtha, squash the then minority Dems and then go out and speak of defending the nation and supporting the troops.

Link provided is of Sr. Repub Congressional leaders stating they knew of the problems yet did nothing. Just read it and defend yourselves neocons.

Both of my parents are Jamaican and my mom said that I have citizenship in Jamaican because her and my father were born there, but I was born in the US. I looked for answers online, but didn't find much. I saw one website that said if both of your parents were citizens of another country when you were born then yes, you have dual citizenship. But a friend told me that the US does not recognize dual citizenship, its not that they don't allow it, its just that they only recognize you as a U.S. citizen. At the time I was born both of my parents were citizens so would I apply to the dual citizenship statement.

If I did apply under U.S. law, would I apply under Jamaican law?

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP AND TIME!

I am writing a University report on how antiquities are often smuggled back from warzones for profitable and illegal sale in allied countries (by fleeing refugees rather than service-people, I add hastily).

As a postscript, however, I would like to write about how easy it would be for a soldier /sailor/ aircrew to do the same; when you come home from active service, how hard would it be to smuggle back a small artefact (tennis ball size), or even something threatening like a plundered hand gun or camcorder?

I know lots of WW2 troops brough back 'souvenirs' like Lugers and kettle-top helmets and wondered if this would still be possible today, or is base security too high- what is the basic procedure for tropps returning home?

Note I am interested in the practised security, NOT what is written in the book (if the two differ). Thanks for any help.

I am sorry if have cause offence to anybody here, it is a genuine question for an assignment.

Thanks!

There are people in America who want it to become a communist country yet they will not leave to even visit a communist country.

I have been to China, Russia and Cuba. I do not want to live like that.

Do you know why they built the Berlin wall? It wasn't because they wanted to keep the capitalists out.

So come on people, do you really think communism is that great? How about taking a sabbatical, say six months, to live in a communist country. A first hand perspective might be eye opening.

Or say try Iran or Venezuela, I hear they have socialist governments as well.

So let me see if I get this, people who want communism will not leave America to get a first hand experience yet they want America to become communist. This is really illogical.

I see many are upset that Libby was found guilty of perjury, when he was lying about a non crime. Clinton did the same thing. Do reps now regret opening that door?

The early US settlers suffered disease, starvation, Indian attacks, sabotage, plague, warfare, horrid weather, lack of knowledge, etc., yet they built the US into a colossal super power that fought and won in the Pacific and in Europe during WWII.

So why can't illegal aliens start businesses, teach skills, and better their communities instead of abandoning the problem? Don't give me the drivel that the Mexican government is screwing them over, because opportunities abound in Mexico. And the Mexican people are many and their government is few.

The early US settlers were oppressed by the empire of England ... by the empire of Spain ... by the government of France ... and by various Indian tribes. Aren't the illegal aliens just as capable as the early settlers were? Or are they not?

I have a friend who hired a lawyer to represent her in a custody matter concerning her grandchildren. In the case she was suing her daughter for partial custody of the children. Her lawyer more than once violated the lawyer/client confidentiality clause by engaging in conversations with the daughter who had failed to hire a lawyer of her own. He also without my friend's consent canceled important court dates. He also set up mediation between my friend and her daughter where he ended siding with the daughter. At this meeting the lawyer's wife was eavesdropping on the meeting and burst in to offer unsolicited advise. My friend finds herself completely dis-satisfied with this lawyer and his antics and wants to hire another but she needs to know if she is entitled to any of the $1800 retainer she gave him.

certainly not WWI. The party was as good as over by the time we got there.
WWII, for sure, and Hitler, Mussolini and the rest of the Fascists found out the hard way.
Korea? the fact there is a country called "NORTH Korea" speaks volumes.
How about Cuba????? there sits Castro 90 miles off of our coast, outlasting every American president since Ike.
Vietnam??? did you forget about the fall of Saigon? if that wasn't running, what do you call it????
how about Iran during the hostage crisis??? HELLO??
and I won't even bring up Saddam, who was left INTACT after the first waste of taxpayers money in Iraq.

so...where are those colors NOT running?

2 days ago, I decided to do a drift using my handbrake in the snow. then, out of nowhere a cop pulls into the street I was on (with my car at a slant in the street). So i just start to drive off, he didn't pull me over or anything. I'm thinking that he didn't see me and he assumed I did a K turn or pulled out of a spot or something. But, being paranoid, I'm thinking he wrote my plate number down and I'll get a ticket in the mail. I'm wondering can I even get that? I figure he would have just given me the ticket on the spot. thx in advance for any answers.

My partner and I are leaving the country and moving to Bulgaria (before this country becomes a complete Totalitarian state). We are taking our 3 cats and 2 dogs, although i have no problem with all the blood tests and jabs they need i am very concerned about the microchip. Maybe that's an understatement, i will not under any circumstances have my pets microchiped. What do i do about bringing them with us to our new farm in Bulgaria?

I'm not really asking this to decide if you are republican or democrat I am more interested in knowing if this would be the best thing to do for the Iraqi people as well as the American people. What would be some of the pro's and con's to doing so? I think that we should pull out of Iraq because too many people are dying that don't have to, american and the locals there in Iraq.
