For everyone out there who passes off every UFO sighting as people just looking for attention, what's your retort to all the testimonials by former government staff who have confessed with all seriousness that they have worked with, seen and investigated extraterrestrial craft? I've looked at some of the testimonial films by the disclosure project and it just seems strange that elderly Air Force and Navy veterans would make these things up. Most of them have faced much ridicule and even lost jobs willingly because they felt it was that important to bring truth to the people.

In Australia we apparently have the Worlds largest unmined deposits of Yellow Cake and Uranium, we are currently riding on a HUGE mineral and mining resource export boom with China ! I can see a possible future conflict of interest here ! Can't you ? Rather than supplying the worlds largest economy China, who are yet to prove themselves an Allie why doesn't the US enter into a joint arrangement to mine and share the vast deposits we have here ? It can only make us stronger and a further advance our collective strengths, than couldn't we actually be "the" watch dog for the US in South East Asia, I beleive we already are but this could be improved ten fold ! Also it would ward of any short sighted profitering by exporting enriched Uranium to China, A JOINT EFFORT is required here. The chinese realised the importance of securing mining supplies, atleast the Government refused to sell our mines offshore, but by exporting raw resources we're doing just that !

I think the government is testing the waters, putting out feelers via news stories to see if the public has an appetite for the draft.

forces us to support the US and make decisions that we dont really want to. some people on the other hand say that while this is true, britain is the only country that can in fact persuade america to do things it really doesnt want to do ( a thing that no other country can do ). the 2 things that people over here say that the US did for the UK , but didnt really want to was the , criminalising of NORAID, in america and also we forced america to choose our side during the falklands war, when in fact ronnie reagan was big friends with argentina and like minded south american countries, he was in fact forced against his will to side with the UK against his wishes by maggie thatcher, what do you think

I am writing this from Japan.
I know you Americans are all taught in schools that a-bombing had served as the means to end the war and saved the lives of the people who might have died if the war continued.
But there were other alternatives like dropping the atomic bombs on uninhabited islands instead of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

According to you what plays a greater role in defining or describing a person, his religion or nationality? What do you lay more emphasis on personally? If you face a dilemma where you have to protect your country or religion, which one would you choose?

Would you feel closer to a person from same country and different religion or to one with different country but same religion? Please give reasons too.

... has me leaning more towards the Marines, or if that fails, the Army. My question is whether or not either of these branches have good technical jobs that I can use in the future. My interests lie in military intelligence, namely intercepting and decoding enemy communications.

Are positions of this nature available in the Marines or Army? Also, about the new Army sign-up bonus they've been mentioning... when is that paid? After basic or after individualized training?

My boyfriend of 3 years recently told me that he will join the army for 4 years. It's always been his dream and his grandpa is a big influence in his decision. He says its his dream, however it seems to me like he's just looking forward to the bragging rights of being in the military and big ego after he returns. He is physically fit and conditioned but He is just too optimistic about it and he already thinks he is going to be the best one there and he will have no problems at all throughout the 4 years. He has no worries about our relationship because he thinks everything will be the same after he comes back. I love him and i know he loves me too, and im not even questioning our relationship or leaving him. I just have all these worries and he has none, so i don't know if its me that is overreacting and being too dramatic or him not reacting at all at all about what might happen?

I feel that that only course of action now, that we are so far from the intent of the Constitution,is armed rebellion.The whole system that our fore fathers gave us has been hijacked by the the Socialists,Globalists,Homosexuals,Muslim threat,and the Federal Reserve.In a nut shell ,if we,who are pure in the understanding and belief of the Constitution,are to enact the change that is necesary to the original intent of our Fore Fathers then pick up your weapons because the war is about to start.Do not be blind to the religion of "Tolerance" for it will destroy us all.I have no problem of tell the alphabet agencies to kiss my ***.Bring it on.
How many of you are willing to make the sacrifice that our Fore Fathers did?Our way of life and our decendants future depends on YOUR willingness to give up your comfort and status to ensure their freedom.The time for TRUE BATTLE is at hand.The war shall start.My honor as an American and Veteran will no longer be impuned by cowardice.God Bless Us.

1st option: leave now, and miss the holidays. and start my military career.

2nd option: leave in january, and have to get a full time job, and go to school until I leave.

I want to leave now, but then I don't..
