Islamist-Left Alliance A Growing Force

"Where else can you sit down in a single evening and listen to senior people from Hamas, Hezbollah, the Muslim Brotherhood, people from the revolutionary left and the antiwar movement from around the globe?"

— British Trotskyite John Rees at the Cairo Anti-War Conference, April 2007


Over the past year, multiple international conferences have featured leaders of the anti-global left and Islamist groups working together. Go to any anti-war or anti-globalization demonstration in the West and chances are you will see the flags of Hezbollah and Hamas waved by people wearing Che Guevara T-shirts.

Ahhhh and more communist murderer worship! (Che Guevara)

And at some of these meetings, members of such radical Islamist groups as the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and Hezbollah have enjoyed starring roles.

Do you like Bush. Or, do you hate him?

Don't waste your time generalizing and name calling because, that's what it amounts to..... A waste of time! If you can't back it up, skip this question.

Thanks! I'm waiting to see 30 responses with back up!

I'd really like to hear their justification on this one

By Dale Hurd

CBN News witnessed this strange coalition in London in 2003: a massive anti-American, anti-war demonstration by radical leftists and radical Muslims. They are two groups with seemingly nothing in common except hatred of America, capitalism, and Israel.

DNC Chair Howard Dean condemned the anti-Semitism inside his party

Question: When A-jad meets justice, should the financiers and the hierarchy of the Democrat Party share his fate?

They share feelings and intents toward our nation. Why not share fates?

The whole "Why don't you enlist and go to Iraq if yo support it" thing? Is that the thinking of a teenager or an adult? Maybe a tween.

Should we expect them to work in an abortion clinic? Maybe have a gay marraige themselves?

Ridiculous

I was having a conversation with someone who's opinion I respect and this question entered my mind. I will defend a persons right to offend me (by doing things like burning a flag etc...) but will they defend my right to be offended by their actions? (speaking out about my feelings on the matter) or is free speech only a one way street...

France is bankrupt and can no longer afford to pay its workers generous salaries and subsidies, its prime minister has declared.

Could this be our future under Universal healthcare?

Indeed it is. Thanks to Jon Stewart and a quick edit, the sufferers of Bush Derangement Syndrome will surely jump on a comment President Bush made yesterday that "Mandela is dead." Since Jon Stewart ended his clip of the President with "dead," the President looked kind of foolish, as Mr. Mandela is very much alive. Here's the entire quote for those who don't get their NEWS FROM COMEDY CENTRAL:
WASHINGTON (AFP) — US President George W. Bush on Thursday declared there were no more "Mandelas" left to help aid reconciliation in Iraq because former dictator Saddam Hussein had killed them all. There could be no "instant democracy in Iraq" because "people are still recovering from Saddam Hussein's brutal rule," Bush told reporters.
Referring to former South African president Nelson Mandela, who led the fight against apartheid to become a symbol of reconciliation and hope, Bush said of Iraq: "I heard somebody say, 'Now where's Mandela?'"

What's your opinion on her and do you think she has a chance? I pray to God she doesn't win. She's insane. Also, someone else brought up a good point in a different question: It really isn't a good idea to have a female president when we're dealing with countries who have no respect for women. We're practically asking for it.

Is criticism of the government of Israel anti-semitic?

2007-09-25 09:49:12 · 13 answers · asked by Paranormal I 3

1. Saudi Arabia?
2. Angola?
3. China?
4. Viet Nam?

The Bush family has had long personal family ties with the Saudi dictatorship so I have to assume this would be their first choice. But we are making billions of dollars from Angola and China and now Viet Nam. The oil we get from Angola is nice and it’s understandable that our business ran government is user-friendly to them. But what is our excuses for befriending both China and Viet Nam, both countries that are still communist strongholds?

Why do we cast aside our moral standards for the immoral wealth of a handful of American businessmen and their political buddies?

Be thankful that they have the right to make that incredibly untrue statement? If they said that in Cuba, they would have been Castroated (castrated)

Here's what Iraq has dealt with today...This is just ONE DAY mind you :

Car Bomb in Baghdad. 3 more Iraqi cops dead, 20 more injured, More suicide attacks in Basra:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20968117/

US troop deaths now at 3,798. With what to show for it ? A failed government. Continued crippled oil pipelines. Civil war, and now massive spread of disease.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5972698/

The Government is basically nonexistant. It doesn't work. There's no crediblity, and even less authority...

If tax cuts for the rich help expand the economy (of which I agree)…

...then by the same account, would giving the same huge tax refund to the middle and lower classes not accomplish the same thing merely on the basis that their spent dollars tend to flow to the most productive members of society (back to the rich)?

While I agree that giving the money back to the members of society who are producing (and who actually paid the taxes in the first place) seems to offer the biggest benefit, it seems to me that in the long run (more than a year) it won't matter anyway who it is going back to because the middle and lower classes spend it frivolously (making profits for the rich) anyway which is why they are poor in the first place. At least this would give them a better chance to become better producers themselves.

So why harp on who is getting the tax cut, just make a tax cut and give it back to someone. It all ends up being positive.

Bush said "long rule of a cruel dictator is nearing its end" about Cuba....i think this phrase is ironic comming from bush, when his 7 year dictaorship is nearing its end...1 year left. Anyone else find it highly ironic, and offensive that he would say such a demeaning thing?
