  • I'm not a U.S citizen, but I did grow up in the U.S. I consider this my home, and while I am not yet legaly recognized as one, I am as american as anyone else in this country. It pains me not to be able to speak out on such issues that are troubling…
  • I think the song, like many utopian ideals mean well and are founded on a genuine hope for a better world. However, without problems, challenges, and causes to fight for we would loose what makes us human. What would life be worth without challenge?…
  • We are going to crawl our way inch by inch into space untill their is a global effort and real political leadership like JFK's push to go to the moon. People aren't going carry the heavy cost of space unless in moves them, unless it inpires them. 20…
  • [quote]Originally posted by rcmodels: [b]what makes us any better than any other country? If a soldier massacres civilians or carries out some other heinous crime he damn well should be tried in a world court.[/b][/quote] The U.S already has a c…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Tyvar: [b] And in retaliation, democracies also become a "tyranny of the majority" where nothing but popular opinion hold sway, potentialy without any serious facts or discussion of the issues taking place. Thats why t…
  • How is it unrealistic? Regardles of the problems we have in the U.S I can still pursue my dreams and generaly make my own choices concerning my life. If you are talking about applying that to the rest of the world, people a few hundred years ago…
  • When I talk about freedom I'm talking about the right of every human being to choose his or her path in life, to pursue his or her dreams and ambitions without the direct interference of any outside power so long as that person's choices do not infr…
  • There are at present no charges against any U.S soldiers who were involved in the Balkans, the move was to prevent soldiers from being charged in the future. As for the world government, a tightly controled system with too much centralized contro…
  • That is probably true, but my point was about why Bush pushed to get U.S troops out of the jurisdiction of the ICC. I think its foolish to be giving power to an organization that answers to no one, and has countries as members who are oppresive,unde…
  • "The fact that Bush made the Haag Warcriminal Court (dont remember its exact name now) back down from prosecuting US peacekeepers in the Balkans proves this is not so." Messaih, It was an agreement to exempt U.S peacekeepers from procecution und…
  • I did a search on google but found nothing, what is the movie about?
  • "Try watching a real news program." To me they are all just outlets of information from which I can decide what the truth is, "real news programs" don't exist because they are all based on the biases and motivations of the people who produce them. …
  • I turned on the T.V today and still nothing, also nothing on the internet. I know its seems like one of those conspiracy things, but I really did see that report and its troubling that it would just disapear like that.
  • I thought there was only one transformer movie, the one where Optimus Prime dies.
  • Its easy though to understand why many people don't support space exploration, with all the problems we face in the world it seems better to deal with them first. I believe that to truly extend our reach into space we are going to have to do it a…

  • [quote]Originally posted by Faylorn: [b] BTW, a lot of Afghans interviewed say they miss the Taliban given the crap the Northern Alliance is pulling again. Furthermore, RAWA [url="http://www.rawa.org/apr28-02en.htm"]says[/url] that they need a lit…
  • Mr. Bungle I don't understand why we are arguing here. If we both agree that in cases of outright and extreme opresion action needs to be taken, then what is the argument. Your question as to why the people of Afganistan choose the Taliban is eas…
  • Mr. Bungle while I agree that internal social movements, education and perseverance can change opressive governments over time, it it many cases takes many years for an impact to be felt. Reforms will be slow, and dangerous because dictators will do…
  • We should probably get back on topic, who here knows anything about the two Supreme court cases that supposedly justfy what the President did. News reports only vauegly say "a past Supreme Court decsion", for some reason its hard to get the actual f…
  • The Iraqis rose up right before the Gulf War ended, when Saddam was had just been defeated, and his main forces were deserting. So both you and Konrad are right at the same time about when our chance was lost to get Saddam. I think we are startin…
  • While I am troubled at whats going on with this guy, and other measures that are causing debate. We are still a long way from loosing everything. Also I think that in the end if our governments went too far, people would rise up and fight. Konrad…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Mr_Bungle: [b]. So, rather than have this "war on terrorism", to further the division, why not try and address the issues that led to this problem, and kick the stool out from beneath the 'fanatics'? [/b][/quote] …
  • Thanks but I didn´t write the last post. Although he did make good points. I wrote that both Europe and the U.S have been involved in shaping the destiny of the 3rd world. We´ve both had hands in manipulating countries for our own benifit. The re…
  • why are our forces in the middle east? Because if a radical Islamic movement took power that was hostile to the west, you could see the entire area explode. Tell me what would happen if the flow of oil suddenly stoped from the middle east? the enti…
  • You make alot of good points, and its good to see people rising up and being individuals. Did you distribute this around your school? What were people's reactions? Howver I disagree with you on stoping the war on drugs, while its true making them…
  • What gives me a little bit of hope is that alot of people are questioning whats going on with this case. It seems people aren't as stupid as Plato said, when things start caliming down people start to see what the consequences of giving the govermen…
  • Of course we treat our enemies better than they treat our soldiers, they don't even take prisoners. As for the enemy combatant, perhaps it has been done before in a time of full scale war. But this isn't a full scale war, and Al Qaeda is not a co…
  • Hey i'm sure what you said is true, and this guy is most likely a terrorist. But its not up to the president or any single person to decide when the constitution applies. Some people think we can just use it when we feel, and trash it when its convi…
  • I'm getting a new computer this summer, but I can't decide between a desktop and a notebook. I like the mobility and compact size of the notebook, but even the top of the line $1,600+ dell notbook can't compete with the gaming power of a cheaper des…
