Is it possible for a citizen of a country (living and working there with no contacts in any other country) to defect (his citizenship)???

If yes, who takes responsibility of the citizen and how long will he be allowed to stay in his home country?? who would support his livelyhood?

Are there international laws that provide refuge to him?

both are equally needed in order for a society to survive...and not allowing them to blend together will not allow burden on its citizens to be too great...

How long would this dictatorship continue. How many more Iraq's we have to see before the world community reacts. How much bodies needs to pile up before we say "no more".

Immigration is a basic human freedom to move freely in this world. This planet belongs to all forms of life and just as nature roams and migrates, so does humans. Walls have never stoped anyone from going to where he wants to get to. Even prison walls have failed to keep them in.

Today, by the slimmest possible margin, the Supreme Court outlawed the procedure that anti-abortionists have labeled "partial birth abortion." This was a big win for the Religous Right, Jerry Falwell, the "Moral" Majority, Pat Robertson, American Evangelicals and other Christian groups who have tried for years to outlaw a woman's right to choose.

Regardless of what you feel about this particular issue, here is the question: Which is more frightening for America, and more dangerous to your freedoms and personal beliefs:

1. Having the Federal Government make your most personal and intimate medical decisions for you, rather than you making those decisions with your doctor's advice

2. Having religious groups and zealots force their beliefs upon you and all Americans?

Before you answer, remember, the next powerful religious political movement could be Mormons, Christian Scientists, Jehovah's Witnesses, or Muslims. Would you still support religious groups dictating our laws?

I am trying to reenlist into the Navy from the Army Reserves. I took my MEPS physical and I have two disqualifying issues. My cholesterol is a bit high and I have hardware in my neck from when I broke it two yrs ago.
This reenlistment is important to me and I want the waivers to be approved. Does anyone have any insight about the Navy BUMED waiver folks and whether or not I have a decent chance at getting them approved?

if you do or if dont give me a reason why...

*personally i think he's a pompous idiot (to put it nicely) who has no clue what he's doing, he keeps pushing a war in Iraq and his own country is falling apart, his views suck for the most part, and i hate his self rightous attitude!

for the record i am not a democrat...nor am i a republican and before anyone makes a comment about the armed forces i was in the army so i know why most of the soldiers enlist it wasnt for a war it was for their country that is now in shambles

I have read the basic tenents of his presentation already, and I am IMPRESSED, because he apparently will withhold nothing.

He will present the whole sordid Iraqi bucket of worms (without lies), beginning with pre-911 times, which alot of us haven't taken the time to explore...

Might be worth watching --for truths' sake.

Isn't Freedom the chance to find your own way in a dangerous world. Isn't it worth the risk when any animal or human leaves the safety of his nest in order to live his reality unfettered? Isn't it worth risking a few terrorists so that we can maintain our freedoms? Isn't it worth dying for these Liberties? Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis have died. Would it be acceptable if a similar number died here and we still remained free?

Seriously, I keep hearing these people call suicide bombers cowards. But, cowardice usually involves the impulse for self-preservation, and an unwillingness to face an enemy. This is not a question of ethics and suicide bombers, or right and wrong, but what is cowardly about suicide bombing?
