    'Al-Qaeda' offers gold for deaths

    more senseless rhetorical hatred...they (those putting out the bounty) hate the u.s., the u.n. because they think it supports the u.s. in all matters, and everyone else just because they have to have more people to hate or else they'd have all that extra hate around.

    On the trail of manifest destiny

    Iraqi abuse by american soldiers

    you're perfectly right. i guess the part that got me so much was the fact that not only did they take pictures, they were sitting around smiling at all of this like it was some great lark and everything was fine. i can imagine the other things that go on that no one talks about...

    Iraqi abuse by american soldiers

    no, what's pointless is your refusal to listen to the evidence, where its more than just underwear over someone's head, i wouldn't care then. but this is rape, murder, and torture. go ahead and stick you head in the sand if you wish and try to pretend that these things that are happening aren't...

    Iraqi abuse by american soldiers

    golgo 13, i agree with senseiman. personally, i think you are saying these things out of either hate or simply misunderstanding. you are saying that because terriorists do bad, evil things, its okay for us to do these things to them. if that's the case, what makes us different from them if we...

    You're A Freakin Idiot !!!!!

    :souka: hmmm...actually, going to forums has helped me to realize that i'm never right, cause there's always something i don't know, and somebody's who is usually ready and willing to correct me :p . i like this forum, cause here i'd say people 'debate', usually without getting too personal. i...

    America Steps On It's Dork, Again !!

    :( you're perfectly right about the human psyche and about what'd we probably do in the same situation. however, though that might hold true for most of us (humanity, including myself), i think there are some who wouldn't follow the tide due to integrity...precious few, but still, it's those few...

    McDonald's to launch adult Happy Meals

    Speaking of toys, I was wondering. If a toy shapped like a cupped hand was fixed up so it would link to the motion of the wheels of an exercise bike, would that encourage men to exercise? :-)
