and in other news.... Americans and Israelis dance in the streets burning pictures of Bin Laden and waving ak47's


oh wait a second, maybe not, this is western culture, and we dont celebrate people dying..

 

[noswal]

Does it mean we now have world peace because he's dead

 

[Highflyer_GP]

Does it mean we now have world peace because he's dead

No cos Bush is still alive.

No there are thousands more of his type to fill his place.

There is too much diversity and hatred in just about every society to allow for peace.
The Middle East looks like a play ground compared to what's going on in Africa the only difference is it's not reported about a lot since no one cares about what happens in Africa. Not much oil or anything to cause much of an upset to people's pockets outside of the conflict areas.

The US doesn't stand to gain anything by invading Zim, it's of no interest to them. Unless Mugabe becomes a threat to their national security or he has a hidden stash of oil somewhere, it will never happen.

True as that may be, here is another question. If water ran dry in this country and your nieghbour was the only person with water. Your kids are thirsty to the point of near death, would you be willing to fight your neighbour for water? I know this is an extreme example and not really applicable to the oil issue, but would you?

Well - I thought that was one war already being fought: for Israel's control of the water supply?

BL - is alive and well and living in a cia sanctuary - with an attached tv studio - I mean - didn't he put our a new video less than a month ago? Oooh ya - for the anniversary of 9/11?

Laugh. Disney doesn't do it any better!

 

[oober]

But what you don't know is that your neighbour poisoned the water. Would you still give your suffering children the water?

Actually they did, not dance with AK47's tho but celebrated the deaths of leaders of a terrorist group. I remember that.

No cos Bush is still alive.

Heh, like the matrix, Unbreakable, there must be a opposite force. Oh well, time for the US to train another one.

I've heard of this once, can't remember where tho.

I've heard of this once, can't remember where tho.

Since its 1967 occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip (the “Occupied Palestinian Territories”), Israel has almost completely controlled the water available to the Palestinian population. While Israel theoretically recognized Palestinian water rights in the West Bank in the Oslo II Interim Agreement (Annex III, Appendix 1, Article 40), it has not implemented that agreement and continues to deprive Palestinians of their fair share of water.

well I for 1 hope he isnt dead because 1 day there is going to be a movie and I want it to end with an explosion or navy seals or something and not with a pakistani in his nightgown pooing himself to death in a cave

 

[schitz011]

does anyone really care?

 

[kilo39]

does anyone really care?

Oh ya, major security crackdowns all over the world (read uk and america) - massive loss of citizen rights - 2000+ dead american soldiers. A war against Fascist Extremist Fundamentalist Jihad Killer Terrorists - yes - some care.
