All I can say is TRY IT!!!
While not ALL of our military endeavours have been totally HONORABLE... the ones that counted WERE. Japan Germany USSR Afganistan Iraq An industrial machine that can out produce ANYTHING. A finacial arm that can outright PURCHASE many small - medium sized countries. Then there's John Q. American... we also have one of the (if not THE) most armed citizenry. So go ahead, belly up to the bar and start your petty little insurgency. We'll happy to SQUASH you like the little bug that you are. Peace!

Perhaps the World Worker's Party or the World Communist Revolutionary Party could do the heavy lifting. If ever there was a demonic rogue presence on the face of this world, it is the United States. The world would clearly be better off without its 230 year existence. Ward Churchill agrees. Your thoughts? Interious |

I just said that you as a non American can not decide for us, what we will do. Of course I am not all knowing as you are. Pan Ohco |

I just said that you as a non American can not decide for us, what we will do. But if what you will do has a direct impact on the quality of life and the political and economic stability of other sovereign nations, then you no longer have the right to act unilaterally without expecting any criticism levelled at your actions. That is what the UN was created to allow, a debate in a neutral area. You and I cannot resolve this because you are dead set against accepting criticism and I believe it is the only way you will grow up and join the community of nations. But the United Nations, created at the behest of the United States among other founding nations for this very purpose, is the proper forum to debate these matters and resolve them with the greatest (not wealthiest) good in mind. -- "The problem with the French is they have no word for entrepreneur." attributed to George W.

I'm not good with numbers, but the deciding per cent was even less if you take into account that the actual decision came from the Supreme Court. Wasn't it a 5 to 4 vote? Of course I'm talking apples and oranges, but it seems fair if the apples have the vote, but the oranges make the decision. |

Did say that there are faults on both side. And if you read a history of the Inquisition, you will find that the Inquisition was directed towards christians that were not christian enough.

All the territory outside of muslim home world, voluntarily joined the muslim nation. There was no invasions. Michel some times you suspend logic in your writhing. And your tag line still contains a lie ( which you know). Pan Ohco |
