In Bin Laden's latest statement, he invited Americans to convert to Islam, pointing out that it would mean "no taxes". What could appeal to Republicans more?

Other good things about turning Islamic would be an end to Hollywood sleaze-- popular culture cleansed of all the sex. Another thing Republicans want.

Can you tell me why, how, where and when? I thought we were attacked on 9/11 by orders of Osoma bin Laden. He thinks he ordered the attack as well.

Go into the room where a suicide happened to look at the blood and then make them see pictures of the body? Does the manager have the right to put his employees through that?

Like say I know a registered sex offender, but he doesn't know that I know. Can I ask him in broad daylight in front of say... a church? or a college classroom. Would he be allowed to lie and say that he is not. Or is he obligated by some sex offender law to tell the truth.

Bush prepares another September 11 terror act to transform America into dictatorship

A former Reagan official has issued a public warning that the Bush administration is preparing to orchestrate a staged terrorist attack in the United States, transform the country into a dictatorship and launch a war with Iran within a year.

Paul Craig Roberts, a former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, blasted Thursday a new Executive Order, released July 17, allowing the White House to seize the assets of anyone who interferes with its Iraq policies and giving the government expanded police powers to exercise control in the country.

Roberts, who spoke on the Thom Hartmann radio program, said: "When Bush exercises this authority [under the new Executive Order], there's no check to it. So it really is a form of total, absolute, one-man rule."

In UK law it is illegal to carry anything that could be considered an offensive weapon in public. I read of an eccentric young man who was prosecuted for carrying a walking stick in public because he did not need it and it could be used as a weapon! The police are also under a great deal of pressure to make as many weapon arrests as possible to boost their performance figures. I was with a friend in the local park when two gangs in the distance started fighting. We phoned the police. He went to his car and picked up a baseball bat and ball. The police stopped him on his way back into the park and asked him what was going on and he told them. They asked about the bat at which point he just waved the ball at them. They shrugged their shoulders knowingly and let him through. Does anybody else have any thoughts on what defensive items you can legally carry e.g. a pointed golfing umbrella on a rainy day?

Russia tests 'Dad Of All Bombs'
Russia's military has successfully tested what it describes as the world's most powerful non-nuclear air-delivered bomb.

Channel One television said the new ordnance, nicknamed the "Dad Of All Bombs" is four times more powerful than the US "Mother Of All Bombs".

"The tests have shown that the new air-delivered ordnance is comparable to a nuclear weapon in its efficiency and capability," Col Gen Alexander Rukshin, a deputy chief of the Russian military's General Staff, said.

Unlike a nuclear weapon, the bomb does not pose an environmental threat from the release of radiation, he added.

The statement reflected the Kremlin's efforts to restore Russia's global clout and rebuild the nation's military might.

The muscle-flexing comes at a time when ties with Washington have become strained over US criticism of Russia's slips on democracy, Moscow's vociferous protests against US missile defence plans and rifts over global crises.

The US Massive Ordnance Air Blast, a large-yield satellite-guided, air delivered bomb, had been described as the most powerful non-nuclear weapon in history.

Channel One said that while the Russian bomb contained about 7 tons of high explosives compared with more than 8 tons of explosives in the US bomb, it is four times more powerful because it uses explosives developed with the use of nanotechnology.

While the American bomb was equivalent to 11 tons of TNT, the Russian one was equivalent to 44 tons of regular explosives. The Russian weapon's blast radius is 1,000 feet, twice as big as that of the US design, the report said.

I know nothing of politics and have never voted. I'd like to get more involved, but I don't understand the separate parties. When you ask people, you just get their personal opinion glorifying their side and denouncing the other. I just want facts about the difference. Thanks!

"We're at the beginning of a transition in the Middle East, we're at the beginning of a long process of dealing with what the president called a long time ago a generational challenge to our security brought on by extremism coming principally out of the Middle East," Rice said.

Is it my imagination or did she just suggest yet again that the reason we're in Iraq is 9/11?
