It's such a difficult item

There is no solution.

Please kill this topic, and go on with programming.

Just my opinion. :)

I'm with you Cor.

Politics are just plain scary. Your country is guilty of this. Oh yeah?!? What about Your country and this. Let's go back and forth about it continually, all the while accomplishing nothing.

The way I see it. The whole situation was created by politicians trying to run our lives for us. The governments of men do nothing in the service of man-kind. They only exist to serve themselves.

Thats a very naive outlook, IMHO, sometimes countries interests/freedom can only be preserved if this isn't true.

How do these people know this for sure? they are not in Bush's/Blair's position and privy to all the inteligence they are! Again, if Bush told the American people they had to go to war and remove the taliban regime from Afganistan unless thousands of Americans would be killed by islamic terrorists, would they have believed him? i'm not sure they wouldn't of! (just like Iraq) he wouldn't be able to reveal his sources and therfore any proof. We (UK/USA) have the privilage to be able to select and vote for our representative leaders, if you do not like a certain candidates then again you are free to vote for another.

I know also that USA/UK have alot of interest in keeping the oil flowing from Iraq and do not want this disturbed (hell, the UK created and ruled Iraq until the 1950's) Maybe Saddam had plans for it. who knows...

This thread is getting old now, please somebody put it out of its misery and kill it!

"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."
