Other - Politics & Government - August 2006

We are heading straight into WW3 and we will not will.
All our troops are in enemy territory.
They have closed down over a dozen military bases along both coasts in this country.
A large majority of our ships are in foriegn ports.
Our coasts are wide open.
There's practically no one here to fight .

The man is truly sick in the head.

I had enough. Everytime I use the word "black" (with no racist meanings) a lot of people come and claim their pain, their marginalization and blame the "white evil man" for their problems. I've met a lot of educated black persons (from Africa) and it seems they understood that work is very important for the progress of their countries, they understood the power of democracy and free market.

But hey. There's also a big African American community here always starting fights on racial problems. Everytime you tell them they are wrong (or stupid -note that i also make stupid a lot of other people such as caucasians and asians) they start to bark: "Racist", "Bigot", "Hater", "Uneducated fool".

Well I am not an uneducated fool ( i've spent a lot of my time studying both social problems, but also electronics (5 years- i have a diploma)). A lot of "my uneducated friends" have the same views ... We are not "racist" we are simple watchers and observers.
Question: Why all this hate ?
PS I am EU

The five members of the UN Security Council plus Germany have given Iran until August 31st to halt uranium enrichment. If Iran chooses to ignore the stipulations given by the Security Council, they face severe economic and political sanctions. Iran has called these requests illegal and has also stated that the Islamic Republic has a new agenda. The European Union does not endorse the UN's proposal. Are we looking a serious negotiations or is Iran buying time? Their answers and referenced proposals for negotiation remain vague. Please serious opinions ..... Thank you

Like all liberal reporting of the news, the bias and slant is toward favoring America's enemies. NYT uses the word RESISTANCE MOVEMENT to explain Hezbollah. Fox New uses the word TERRORIST to explain Hezbollah. As you can see, Liberals are always against America and report slant news. And Fox News report objectively.

do you think the new resolution allowing the un force in Lebanon to fire in protection of themselves and civilians, could potentially see them shooting israeli soldiers on their incursions into Lebanon. which i think is against the un resolution.

1) Possession of drugs is illegal.
2) Being "under the influence" counts as possession of drugs.
3) Penalty for 1st offense is confiscation of 25% of offender's possessions.
Penalty for 2nd offense is confiscation of 50% of offender's possessions.
Penalty for 3rd offense is confiscation of 100% of offender's possessions and involuntary commitment to drug rehab.
4) Authorized drug manufacturers, hospitals, pharmacies and maybe doctor's offices are exempt locations. Manufacturer's personnel are permitted to transport drugs to other exempt locations under rigid controls. Documentation, etc. Exemption is revoked if non-prescribed drug usage occurs in these locations.
5) Persons who have been prescribed drugs are exempt for the prescribed drugs only, but must carry and be able to show prescription on demand. Prescription states any behavior-altering effects and may restrict patients' activities. If patient does those activities, exemption doesn't apply. See 3)

george orwell's 1984 was amazing. do you guys think that the totalitarian government in the novel 1984 is pretty similar to the US government?
-goldstein = osama bin laden (ie. the common enemy that can never be caught)
-the ministry of peace = national security council
-being constantly at war with another nation
-"victory gin," "victory mansion" = the thought of the government that is implemented on the US citizen saying that every thing they do, every war they are fighting in, they are winning (war in Iraq being effective)
-"thought police" = FBI, CIA
-growing seeds of fear amongst civilians making it seem that there is a major threat and that only the government can help them
-"double think" = the "we want peace" thought yet the "let's dismantle terrorists" thought
-"telescreens" = american press (well less of the spying part, but the US government probably has some other body to do the deed)
-"proles" = people living in the country side and slums
-brainwashed civilians!

Every time the terror alert levels go up -- or arrests are made like in England -- President Bush's approval ratings move up, even if temporarily. Are we to expect more terror alerts and warnings leading up to the fall elections, like we saw in 2004?

Earlier this year Jesse Jackson also visited Premier Chavez of Venezuela, aka: the dictator/opposition silencer of Venezuela and declared him and his country to be, "NO threat to the region. This proclamation after Chavez earlier visited Iran and urged that country to, "Finish off the US empire, and likened the Israelis to Hitler. My question, just HUH?
