Unfortunately, while Israel is geographically in Asia and politically in Europe, it is economically supported by North America. I say, abandon the West. The East is the future.

I do have to say though, at least it is up front and honest that this is a for profit thing. Not some sneaky, hide it from the believers that we are using your donations to do whatever we want with them type thing. I have to at least respect that aspect of being honest about that.

I'm sorry ...

Sickening, just sickening. In protest to these stuff, whenever I'm with female company, we always sit together. Almost got ugly once.
Unfortunately, as Fable said, the ultra-orthadox community is too big a voting bloc for most governments or organizations to ignore.

And, BTW, unfortunately, that ...

And you think it is working?

I know it's working. Suicide bombing prevention is at almost 100%. Many fewer shootings. But, most importantly, there isn't someone I know blowing up every other week, including a girlfriend (while waiting to meet me for lunch at a Pizzeria), family members (a second ...

On the other hand, you are in the unique position of observing first hand that "violence sows violence". In military terms it is generally referred to as an "escalated conflict", and strangely, they all do.
Well, I am of the opinion that the human race is not a peaceful one. Get rid of all the ...

Sure they are, but probably fewer. Why add to the bodycount? If military types played their wargames on the moon or in Arizona and just killing other military, then it would be fine by me - their choice. Unfortunately they keep placing their warzones in ordinary people's back yards.

When did we ...

In my free time, I amuse myself by finding single, lonely women and brutally murdering them. That's a-okay, though, because even if I didn't women would still get killed.

Yes, but by finding single, lonely women and brutally murdering them, I am also stopping the the thugs down the street from ...

Statistically speaking, there seems to be far more exceptions than rules in this case.

Maybe in the US since WWII. The US is not the entire world.

You may rationalize your own view of the military any way you please, but people tend to get killed whenever the military is doing it's job.
And ...

In my view there are many more useful things to do with your life than joining the military.

The only thing in the paragraph that isn't nonsense.

The fact that they are training you for the sole purpose of ending someone else's life should be a great warning sign to anyone, in my opinion ...

Wow, a GM thread bashing Bush! How revolutionary!

While I myself was initially cheered by the support by the Christian right, it's taken such a dangerous and venomous turn that it is actually quite scary at times, like when Pat Robertson, a big supporter of Ariel Sharon, said on his show that Sharon falling into a coma was god's punishment for ...

What event, pray-tell?

And while you don't see the point in any war, you're saying that you do see a point in every city in Northern Israel being under a barrage of rockets, killing soldiers and civilians alike?

'Mass Murder Bombing strategy'? Talk about a one-sided and uninformed statement.

Anyone know? We need a good world war around here, and I'm getting a bit antsy.

'tis a great injustice to the film to use the revisionist terms. ANH is the same film, just made worse with every single tiny change, turned into a mere shadow of it's former self. It should be burned and forgotten, concidering that it's original corporeal form still exists.

Of the films above, easily The Empire Strikes Back. However the best one is the original Star Wars, from 1977. You really should add it to the list.

I've never been affected by a film in this way before. I saw Paul Haggis' film Crash , and I've just been contemplating it ever since. It is a powerful, important film, that I think every single adult in the world should see. It is about racism and anger. It is one of the few films I've seen that I ...

I don't think there's such a thing as a hero in reality. It's a purely fantastical invention. There are no heroes, and there never have been. The word implies too much for any mortal to be classiffied as one.
But I agree with Fas that soldiers are the closest things we've got. He said it all, but ...
