If we're going to be consistent with the definition of terrorism, then isn't it about time that we acknowledge that what Israel does falls under the rubric of terrorism?

In British common law, the legal definition of unintentional murder is called mens rea. If a building was blown up without the intention of killing anyone but did so, the perpetrators would still be charged under murder. With Israel's persistence with these military acts in Lebanon last summer and the Palestinians territories, why isn't Israle labelled as terrorist. And why does the US and UK support Israel?

Teams of experts secretly loaded the buildings with explosives to bring down the buildings.

Now let’s assume that this theory is correct…

Here is the question, how did 2 planes loaded to the gills with fuel that slammed in to the side of the buildings and explode NOT cause the buildings to explode immediately?

Now I am not exactly an expert but I grew up in a military family and knew more about weapons and military equipment than baseball and football, so I have a pretty strong understanding of what things do what and how things work.

And I have yet to see one explosive device that could survive an explosion without also being detonated.

A lot of the questions here seem childish and shallow. I can search and I'll find some good, well thought out questions, but the answers are mostly just juvenile quips and jokes. I signed up hoping for something more and it is here to be found, but only if I'm willing to sift through a bunch of ridiculousness to find it.

We can all agree that American and British troops in Iraq are keeping global terrorism in check, but how can we make sure that when blair is no longer in office that we will still be able to carry on the noble cause against terrorism. the last thing we need is a pro-terror candidate who will remove the troops, even though they have been fighting hard.

You said you want to argue with facts. If this is the case,here's your change to prove that you do argue with facts.

In this specific question, I am not implying nor arguing that 9/11 was an inside job done by Bush or his admin. I am simply asking what happened to WTC7.

1. Do you agree Larry Silverstein declared on TV that he and the fire department commander decided to "pull" WTC7?
http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=-7750532340306101329&q=larry+silverstein
You can see and recognize Larry Silverstein, the leaseholder of the WTC complex, declaring on TV that the building will be pulled.

2. Aside from that, a german demolition expert states clearly that there is no doubt whatsoever that the building came straight down for any other reason. This is exactly what Larry Silverstein had said that the building was demolished.

Is it just me or is anyone else sick of hearing about criminals in prison complaining about their human rights? They get compensation for slopping out and complain that this is against their human rights, but I dont see them so up in arms about crime being against the victims human rights.

I say punish them properly - no cushy prisons that are getting more like holiday camps!

We're around three weeks away from the Scottish Parliamentary and Local Authority elections and I have seen and heard NOTHING on TV or radio, and precious little in newspapers about this. The vast majority of people don't even know it will be different - radically different. Is this a deliberate strategy by Labour to minimise impact or lower turnout and participation? Might it backfire in the long run, creating resentment, confusion and spoiled ballot papers?

For info: In LA elections, candidates will now be ranked in the voter's order of preference - if there are 7 candidates there you can rank them 1,2,3... up to 7, if you wish.

In the Parliamentary election you will have two votes, made with a cross - one for your constituency MSP, one for your Regional choice (who may be the same or different).

Most of the republican candidates have a characteristic of strength and leadership, but with the exception of maybe Obama, all the democratic candidates appear socially retarded and sickly.

Is this hope to darwinian for you...the hope that our next president have an image or persona of strength?

By the way...don't bother to argue that edwards or anyone else has this...anyone who says so is hoplessly pc and party loyal as opposed to concerned for the nation interests.

All right, lets assume you’re the defense attorney and you need to make your defense suspect not guilty. Since the court of law doesn’t say weather your innocent or not.

The driver is 16 and has his driver’s license. The passenger and driver have giving an older man they don’t know money to buy them alcohol for the party they are going to. They get this and they nor the police ever see the guy again.

So they pick up a friend named John Doe 15 years old. John goes behind the driver seat in a regular 4 seat, 4-door car. The passenger has the alcohol beverage unopened by his feet. John knows its there and the passenger and driver know he knows its there.

They get pulled over for speeding. Now they get arrested for minor in possession of Alcohol. All 3.

You need to defend this as the defense attorney would.

If one stops the pay of the USA military men and women they will stop fighting. The Insurgents do not get a pay check. They fight for honor so guess who will win.
