Nobody warned Iraq that these jets were flying over their air space and nobody shot at the jets in either direction though everyone knew where they came from and Israel had no permission to fly war planes over anyone’s country. THEY FLEW OVER THE KING OF JORDANDS YACHT, and had indeed alerted Iraqi's air defenses. They fired on the F-16's at the nuclear reactor site. "Oops those sneaky Israelis slipped through our radar that is always looking at Israel. Israel is surrounded by

I was accused of using this word once. Of course, being the person I am I don't, not ever, I have absolutely no use for it, but someone once thought that instead of me saying "Are you from Milwaukee or one of the bigger cities?" They had thought I replaced "bigger" with the racial slur. I was just making conversation, trying to be friendly, cashiering pretty much as was my job. This was while I was working at a gas station, the reason I had asked was, I figured she to be from out of th

Wow you sure seem to talk about the sun a lot, almost as if you had created it yourself. As for WMD "The Gulf war ended and 12 years passed without any intelligence people on the ground all we had was satellite data to go on." We had inspectors in country up until 1998, and unimpeeded inspections until around 1996. The bottom line is Ritter was right, there isn't any MASS destruction potential in what was left over to be found. "It was not the point that Ir

"Just to clear up this one little point. All the orbits are eliptical because the SUN is moving around the Galaxy and dragging all the planets with it." Yeah, do you know what an elipse and a circle are? If so, then you should conclude that what is meant by the sentence "-We also know the orbit of the earth was more eliptical at one time. " is that the orbit of the sun is more circular then eliptical now. Get it? Moot point anyway. "The religious left says the reason for t

I totally agree with you when you say nobody should be trying to make anything un-sayable what Jackson should be doing, is getting off the media circus, stand up and call for those men who are now suing Richards to accept his apology and move the hell on. He should be calling for them to do it for themselves, the country, race relations, do it because it is the right thing to do. I see nothing wrong with calling for a boycott of racial slurs, all racial slurs, but I don't thi

"The websites you listed did not say that second hand smoke causes cancer" You mean like right here? "Secondhand smoke, also know as environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), is a mixture of the smoke given off by the burning end of a cigarette, pipe or cigar and the smoke exhaled from the lungs of smokers. It is involuntarily inhaled by nonsmokers, lingers in the air hours after cigarettes have been extinguished and can cause or exacerbate a wide range of adverse health effects, incl

I'm not sure if you are playing the devils advocate, an idiot, or just want me to lay it out for you on cancer. Does smoking cause cancer? Eventually Yes. Does the smoke cause the cancer? The smoke as well as the chemicals inside the cigaratte that are inhaled cause cells to mutate, after a certain number of mutations they divide out of control and form tumors, i.e. cancer. If you are in a room, and there is a fire, obviously you cannot breathe the smoke, it's lethal,

"Why did he have tons of Urainum?" Show me evidence of this a link, anything to support that. I admit that the statement that Iraq had absolutely no Weapons of Mass Destruction is incorrect, according to your link. If I have stated that in an argument, then that is wrong I admit being wrong in any case of that. Let me be more specific and demaning in your proof, even though they apparently discovered some WMD, some "degraded", "hazaradous", "potentially lethal", that

The problem of global warming, real or perceived, would be better solved by putting resources i.e. capital from capitalism, into it when it materializes as an actual problem. As of right now, a slight increase in temperature change, which could just as likely be a cyclical solar system phenomenon as additional "greenhouse" contamination of the atmosphere, isn't a real problem yet. If and when the earth ever needs to be rid of or see a dramatically reduced force action then modern capitalism can
