ha ha ha So the only sources that are accurate are the ones that agree with you. Why am I not surprised. 4E, Is there any crime in Israel? Does any Israeli citizen steal, speed, burgler, extort, murder, domestic violence? Or are the only crimes committed in Israel by palis against Israel? You loyalty is wonderful. American Soldiers has committed crimes and been punished by US military law (My Lai fir example). Why don't Israeli soldiers commit any crimes? Why can't the US get great soldiers like Israel?

Nope That's Incredible

How about CNN? US Anti-Israel? Australia? I have a hard time believing that they haven't used Palistinians. Wouldn't it be collateral damage? Who cares if a Pali dies if it takes out a Hamas leader?

ss2k4? Not SS2K4

Hey, I need that to pull my Hummer out of the mud

4E, you will not believe anything if it is anti-Israel and will believe anything that is Anti-Palestinian. You both are the same, almost like twin brothers. Link from an Israeli Group London Telegraph From Haaretz 4E, I'm finding some fairly mainstream Israel puplications also speaking about this. It is old news, mostly from 2002 when the High Court was asked to render a judgement.

Here's a perspective from way far away. The Cubs sell papers and get people to tune in. I see regular coverage of Cubs games 1,600 miles from Chicago. Check with the guys around the nation. The Cubs are a better story. They are more popular, and more media friendly. Someone tell me Frank is as good an interview as Sammy?

but who would be interested in Brando besides me? share big guy.

Plus, the classis trade situation is I have extra this and you have extra that, let's trade.

I see the other end of the enlistment spectrum. Down here many kids enlist because of a very high unemployment rate, underperforming, poorly funded schools, and feel a military education is their best ticket to a good life. The relatively long periods of peace gave a lot of these kids a false understanding of the sacrifices they may be asked to make. They thought in and out in four years, learn a trade, and see ya. When you see the names of Rodrigues, Martines, Garza, etc. please take a moment and realize these are, in some cases, these are not citizens, they are kids whose parents, in many cases, were illegals struggling to improve their lives. Not many people realize but you do not need to be a US citizen to fight for America. It also doesn't guarantee you citizenship. And finally, there are misguided (IMHO) people on the other side who feel the same emotions we do. In another thread, we talk about forgiveness. Perhaps we can find time to pray for everyone who is effected by war. A world at peace, not seen in centuries, would be an incredible thing.

Like it makes a difference in that group :puke The only thing worse than those would be a hangover from too many.

I found it at a Victory Store - Bush - Cheney I guess they have a sense of humor about themselves. BTW, you can get all of your official Bush2004 campaign items there.

If you are an outfielder, why come to the Sox? We seem to have a bumper crop of good, young, outfielders.

Yep, with those two loser franchises in New York, no successful teams to cheer . . .

Thank you,

It takes a special person to be so nonchalant about mortar rounds.

OK, now I just saw an image that makes me respect the government's positions. Damn, show the pictures, dignify the soldiers, but do not photoshop them into something else. Do not use them to prove a political point. Now you are disrespecting our service men and women and this pisses me off.

God Bless Him. I have more respect for that man than I have the words to express. Rest in Peace.

Interesting views. Is it possible to agree with someone's action but not the underlying reasons? For example if someone propossed that Marte should be the closer many would agree. But if the reason given was that Koch has 4 letters in his name and that in 2004, based on Haley's comet, a Presidential election, and road contruction in the Damn Ryan, no closer should have 4 letters in their last name. Wouldn't it be ok to agree with the end result but not the justification? So therefore, does it matter that he supports his argument with a source that he himself only agrees with 10% or 50% or 99% of the time? Now can it go the other way? We all agree that X, Y, and Z are facts supported by this or that reference. Yet one person arrives at A conclusion, someone else at B. We are still dealing with the conclusions, not the underlying facts.

I was addressing specifically his religious beliefs and this debate. I care deeply about Israel's position for very personal reasons, mostly the health and safety of friends of mine and their children. I am not Jewish. That shouldn't make my arguments any less valid. I do not think 4Es religious practices validate or invalidate his arguments. Out another way, if he did keep Kosher and attended Temple each week, would you place any more validity on his views? Would we not debate just as vigerously?

And I pray it is never you
