I'm trying to understand Syrinana, and in a lot of ways, dont get it. I get that our gov, works with corp. that has their own best interest at heart and a government that gives approval to initiatives that agree with the bennefits that big bus/benefits have to offer(ie, energy and oil, political votes etc.) But is that the only message of Syriana? Am I missing something?

No assumptions about me or attacks on me please. I'm just telling you what I saw.

While channel surfing I came across the channel C-Span which showed a panel of people discussing and presenting examples as to why they believe that the US government planned 9/11. I heard of this conspiracy before but I didn't think that it was being taken this seriously by any group. Have any of you heard anything (specifics and sources please) pointing towards the US committing the 9/11 attacks?

For arguments sake, suppose the US did plan this attack, what do you (especially the Americans) think the punishment should be for the people involved?

It is my understanding is that this whole thing started as a Hezbollah plan for a "prisoner swap" in an effort to get some of their people in Israel out of prison. They have done this before and sadly, Israel negotiated and freed some prisoners.
So, wouldn't it have made more sense to just kill 8 prisoners? Six for the ones killed in the kidnapping and 2 for the kidnapped soldiers. Yes, this might be the death of the two hostaged soldiers, but it would have saved all the civilians and foiled the Hezbollah plan, making them empotent.
I know the international community would have cried and whined about it, but perhaps it would have prevented future acts of terrorism such as the one perpretated by this cowardly group of heavily armed thugs who hide behind children.

They say they have asked the civilians to leave. Perfect. How can the civilians leave if the roads are bombed and there isnt gas due to the bombings of gas stations .. moreover most of them are from a poor area "Qana Village".
They say Hezbollah have hid behind these people and there women, and when Israel attacked they put these families upfront and left them to die. Perfect. So Hezbollah has hid behind all the 670 dead today ? So hezbollah has been hiding between these buldings that are so clustered together to strike bombs ? Nope Hezbollah is so dug into the mountain grounds there un reachable. There guerilla tactics has left Israel no choice but to retaliate in an inhumane manner.
They say Hezbollah is a terror organization ? Perfect. Have you heard of any Hezbollah suicide bomber anywhere ? Have you heard of Hezbollah strikes on any city or country in the world ? Have you heard of Hezbollah being a part of AlQaeda Network ? Hezbollah is a (resistence).

After 40 years' march in the desert, on arriving at the promised land, that's what Moses supposedly told the Israelites to do, kill the people who were living there, with some differences according to particular territories whether to kill off everybody or just all the men or all the adults.

In modern times we have come to condemn such systematic wholesale slaughter as genocide, particularly as practiced by Hitler, but also, for example, as the Turks did to the Armenians and the US did to the Indians.

The Bible and Torah in Genesis 49 condemn the cruel ways of the Levis; that such nasty ways are to be regarded as separate and apart from the spirit of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Moses is said to have both mother and father from the tribe of Levi, so the condemnation clearly applies to him.

Can we point out this condemnation of the cruel ways of Levi, so Israeli leadership doesn't rely on Moses's urging genocide as justification for their policies against Arabs?

Due to increasing oil prices, private transportation hits the lower/middle classes hard. Public transportation is unreliable and most are run off petro, and hence, are affected as well. Can we adopt a mass transit as well honed as those found in Europe or Japan?

One would think the US would have learned from the first oil crunch in the 1970s when OPEC disrupted the oil flow then. Alas, the cars seems bigger (look at the Hummers) today and not much progress has been made towards making efficient cars or cost effective mass transit.
