I know a good number of P2P network services are hosted overseas, I found in limewires privacy policy that they are US based though, but being that some of the services are in countries like russia I wasnt sure where the money was going to.

no since no money made on it apart from ppl buy pro and pro money usesd to pay programmers to make limewire better lmao not fund terrorism
how ever simple logic says that if u have a company with over 30 ppl in it 1 of those will spend there money on somthing that does ither fund ppl gettin hurt or ill or somthing (smooking alchol)
but terrorism is somthing the govmerts using massivly at the mo as a scare tatic altho yes there is usaly a lot of people involed most of them are harmless and theres only realy a few 100 real dangerous 1s out there meaning no limewire quite save its like the drugs a few years ago was a scare tatic and all the cinemas would say pirate dvds promote drug sellers and help provide money for them admitly probs 1/ 25 people who sell dvds probs do ither use or sell drugs but trust drug deallers make 100k a month selling crack dont realy care about selling dvds for £3 each
terrorism is just a new scare tatitc where as in every thing usa or england goverment dont want to happen they just say its linked to terrorism
and lets face it ok some people are big in to selling pirated stuff and do make a fourtune out of it ok but theres so few (like drug dealers) most people that do it are just tryin 2 earn a extra few £ here and there and are not linked to any massive organization

No. Limewire does not directly fund terrorism. What the goverment claims is that Terrorist use networks like limewire to download illegal copies of movies and music, then they sell those videos and music to people on the street. If you live in New york you have seen at least 1 person on the train, Street corner , or just walkiing around with movies for like 5 dollars or something. These are usally new movies or music albums that are not available for private purchase yet. What the goverment claims is that theprofit from sales of these movies and albums are going to terrorism. It might be so in some cases, but definatly not all cases. If you want to know if you buy a regestered copy of limewire with no ads will that money go to terrorisim, the answer is no , not terrorism as we know it, but american goverment has some messed up views since the patrioty act. If you download a movie from limewire , they could call you a terrorist and say you are trying to ruin americas economy by violating copyright laws.
Are you a terrorist ? most likely not, but america will call you one if you donwload something copywrited, vbut they will also call you a terrorist if you try to question the new electronic voting mahcines.

Hi. From the web: "I'm against piracy, but come on. I can play this game too! I like oranges. The ones from Southern California are often grown and sold with the help of illegal Mexican immigrants. Many of them support their families back in Mexico. There is a huge drug trade in Mexico, and a few of the same families grow drugs. Drug money often goes back to terrorist networks. Ergo, buy oranges, support terror."

So for the reason which you have "studied" political technological know-how, you at the instant are an authority on the topic? the US "funded" the lesser of the two evils in lots of international conflicts. on the time of the Afghanistan invasion via the Soviet Union, the US became in a chilly conflict. we'd definitely have sided with anybody who became against Communism, which became the worldwide possibility on the time. Now that Islamic terrorists are the suitable worldwide possibility, why does not we fund those adversarial to that? Political climates replace in the process the an prolonged time, and one has to conform to that. The conflict on Terror does not have been prevented because of the fact that's through Islam desirous to make the worldwide Islamic. undeniable and easy. there is no longer something political approximately it. that's in basic terms a non secular conflict. Islam deems the West as being "infidels", Christian, Jewish, and "Crusaders". You pay attention it of their rhetoric continuously. as quickly as you return to grips with this thought, the extra knowledgeable you would be.
