[quote]AD, I'm saying that the reality of the situation is that the PA won't do anything. [/quote] What did Israel do to deserve being punished? Why are you giving the PA a pass (but claim we need to stop giving a pass to Israel)? [quote]Sometimes, in a group, when a person doesn't pull their weight, you have no choice but to pick up the slack for the sake of the rest of those in the group. In this case, the PA has shown no inclination. So then what? Do the Israeli

[quote]Bottom line is folks, I want to see peace. For the sake of my friends, and my grandfather; the stuff happening over there breaks my heart, and I do not see the PA willing to do much, so, it really falls on Israel to get things done. I'm not saying Israel is some hideous monster, but I do believe it can do better. I'm suddenly reminded of a comment that is worth chewing on: "Governments have never lied to anyone; they are the bastion of honesty, I should believe my government

[quote]And that despite the fact that both the PLO and Hamas do their best to make it clear that it is about killing Jews. It's weird.[/quote] They turn a deafening ear and close their eyes. Obama and many Americans come across as arrogant as a result. They have a solution but only reveal their ignorance. [quote]Most people think its all about the land. If only the PA had the land this whole thing would be over. In the two U.N resolutions that I posted

Leauki, Isn't it interesting how Israel has to always give up something? Israel needs to be the one to stop fighting first (ie start the cease fire). Israel needs to give up some land. Israel needs to give up some money. Why hasn't there been a solution that says. Hey Palistine you want to exist then leave Israel alone else, withdraw most of the restrictions on what Israel can do as part of warefare! There that's my two state solution. Obama

[quote]It doesn't matter who did what first, it's the peace that could be that matters.As for the high road, at least they didn't broadly fire into the yard, possibly killing said neighbor's family/children who likely had nothing to do with the specific neighbor.[/quote] Oh but in this case they do. When you have friends over they are open firing on them, including women and children. AJ, just look up all the horrors of S'derot. The terrorists constantly bomb them.&n

[quote]Ford went through a major restructuring in 2006 which included closing some plants & Bill Ford stepping down, but don't recall a bankruptcy.[/quote] Maybe it was just on the 'verge' of bankruptcy? I didn't pay that close attention back then. You are probably right, but I do remember some kind of financialy restructuring.

My mistake, everybody wants to elect fundamental religious wingnuts into offices all across the land.[/quote] How did we go from religious conservatives to fundamental religious wingnuts? I see you'd rather throw out heaploads of sarcasm rather than have a discussion on what you have to say. Fine with me.

[quote]Wow, 52 responses and only a couple have anything whatsover to do with Adventure-dudes point! It's a legitimate question... why does Obama respect the right of every nation no earth to use nuclear power... except the US? Nuclear power is the only "alternative" source that can possibly keep up with what oil does for us.. yet to Obama, it's off the table.[/quote] I guess their nuclear waste is ok because it isn't here?

[quote]Stop the battle and be proactive in providing places for the innocent palestinians to live.[/quote] Palistinians are welcome to move and live freely in Israel. The reverse is NOT true. How AJ, do you propose they 'stop the battle' when they aren't the one's throwing the first grenade, rocket, killing, etc? That's like me telling you to stop your feud with your neighbor when your neighbor keeps throwing rocks at you, your family, and your house. Not to

[quote]If they're so keen on giving up things for peace, then why not give up some land to settle this once and for all? Place the palestinians who truly want peace (the moms, dads, etc.) and then shell the shit out of the terrorists and those who fight them. See, a solution.[/quote] Lucas, they did, they have, and guess what... NO PEACE. Why do you continue to blame Israel for the lack of peace in the middle east. How come you aren't complaining that Palisti

[quote]But that is what anti-Semitism is and was. The Nazis did not, in fact, do much else to convince people that Jews are evil. They just retold stories and people believed them. And it never stops. And at no point do people wake up and think "Wait. Today I won't believe it. It ends here. Even if it is true, just for once I want to see what happens if the Jews are not considered evil.".[/quote] and USSR did the same through a publication.

[quote]My issue is the idea that we (USA) can have nukes and persue other forms of research regarding nukes, but Iran cannot. It just doesn't sit right with me. It's like saying, "Well, we can have X, but you can't have it, because we think you're ______." You get what I'm saying?[/quote] But let me ask you this. When is the last time you heard some US Leader say we need to make X country disappear? When's the last time you heard Russia say X country needs to di

Barring a Chavez-like move, which I don't think even BO could get away with, they'll be better able to produce & sell vehicles people actually want once the economy starts to recover, as opposed to what the clueless pseudo-CEO's in DC dictate. If I had any money to invest, I'd consider buying some Ford stock.[/quote] I've thought about that too Daiwa, but I don't think BO likes competition. Besides didn't Ford file Chap 11 not too lon

[quote]If the objective is to sell more cars, why on earth would we want to shut down dealers? It just doesn't seem to make any sense.

My understanding is that each dealership puts a liability on the manufacturer (I am too tired to remember or look up exactly how). They have to close some of them because they are too big of a liability risk to the Manufacturer. Keep in mind this is hap
