How can I not respond to what amounts to a personal insult ??
I may seem a little agitated the past couple of months- thats mainly because of being bombarded with seventy-nine very big, very difficult, assignments, and having 2 weeks to do all of them. Everyone has their good times and their bad times, and right now I am going through a very bad time; and hoping to not drag anyone into the same void. Please, let me know if I do drag anyone right into this void- i`ll filter out my anger by flaming the BIS boards if thats what it takes to keep myself from doing it here.

In my opinion there's only one way to deal with this faceless enemy, and that is hit back, hit back so hard they shit themselves from fear, just like they did to us on september 11. There is an old saying that says an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and i believe in that. If bush wants to attack irak, please by all means, do so, only this time finish the job. It's no use defeating the iraki army and let saddam sit on his throne. This time it's time for him to be brought to justice, or even better, put a bullet in his head. No more mr niceguy, finish this, whatever it takes.
Johnny, nothing is so cut and dry, simple. I cringe at the thought of the President declaring war on all the nations Georgie mentions as part of the Axis Of Evil. I can't believe he used that phrase in Germany, he has no shame.

Whatever happens though, we can't blame a previous sin on a person who wasn't born when it happened.
If my father shot your father and took his house and land, so that I was living in luxury in the house you should have lived in, am I not reaping the benefit of my fathers deed?

If I can reap the benefit, should I not reap the negatives?

Our cultures have wills and testaments. Legacy is passed down from generation to generation. Wealth, land, esteem. There are rich people in America who's families initial wealth was made on the backs of slaves.

If they can inherit the benefits, they can inherit the blame.

Certainly that is how the disspossessed see it.
If the possessor blindly ignores the views of the dispossessed, trouble brews. It's easy for the person with the house and land to say
"Just forget about it, that's in the past " because THEY OWN THE HOUSE! It's much, much harder, for the dispossesed to say that.

Until that day comes, we can't forget about it. All over the world the dispossesed are SCREAMING.

[/QUOTE]Lennon apparently you have no concept of world affairs. Or perhaps you have a narrowminded and ignorant view of recent events. That I can tolerate. But to advocate the death of the leader of your country? Your tone wasnt "joking". You disgust me. I reiterate-dont post to me again. edited for profanity

[/QUOTE]I think you should take a deep breath and back off LOA. I think sometimes youngsters don't always think before they post. And I think your tone is out of line, too.
