It appears I am certainly missing something. I thought we were talking about using nuclear weapons on another nation here in response to a terrorist attack. How can nuclear weapons not be indiscriminate? If you're talking blowing up a known terrorist training camp, then I'm all for it. I'm in...

I don't think that. However, I do think that the mindset of the people who get involved with Al-Qaeda is that they have a complete justification of their actions no matter the consequences: which is why they can kill ordinary Muslims in Jordan or Iraq the same as they can Western citizens in...

Yes, I can see how killing all those millions of people and poisoning the land for decades afterwards would teach such a lesson. Or maybe it would just piss everyone off even more. You still haven't performed the amazing feat of informing me how you scare people who blow themselves up to kill...

I'll go ask a Muslim when I'm in work tomorrow. How about that?

Money works until a drug-resistant strain eventually emerges in your body. Then there is not much that can be done.

No, I can't see that. I don't see how a terrorist bomb attack could ever be a justification to annihilate any country and its people using nuclear weapons or otherwise. There would be no moral or legal justification for it. That said, it's only speculation. I'm fairly confident in reality...

And it has been attempted to find people resistant to the virus. I can remember hearing about screening of African prostitutes who have been continually exposed to the disease but not contracted it. In this case, the man has so far refused to allow himself to be further tested to confirm his...

Even if it wasn't actually traced back to a particular country, someone would get bombed regardless. For instance, post 9/11 Iraq has been invaded, despite the 9/11 terrorists being mostly Saudi and Saudi government officials being linked to the attack (and being recorded praising it).

What makes you think that is how research works? Do you think businesses and organisations sanction huges amounts of money for research based on a whim? If lab research were a case of trying things randomly, we'd hardly have all of those protease inhibitors that are currently prolonging...

How do you verify it without directly exposing someone with HIV and checking them later? This is only recorded because the man was tested HIV positive, then negative. In Africa, the records may not be so reliable.

I showed you that they have. True, but then it's not just me who'll tell you it's not a religious dispute. It's not about Catholicism vs. Protestantism, over who is right and who is wrong. It's about whether Northern Ireland should be part of Ireland or Britain. The religious divide...

Go back and read your own post. I'm not assuming anything, I'm simply showing you that "moderate Islam" has offer condemnations of terrorist attacks by fanatical groups, something you said has never happened. Because that's all people choose to read. Intricate local politics are largely...

They're not all in regards to 9/11. Good effort, though. You said originally said no condemnation was issued from moderate Islam, now you're qualifying that statement by saying it's recent. Perhaps they're condemning because they actually think it's wrong? Who are you to assume they aren't...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4432564.stm Interesting story. It's true that no virus will kill 100% of people who are exposed to it, even HIV. I remember reading that one of the strategies to tackle the disease was to look at people who continually expose themselves to the virus but...

Why should I take the time to know you? This is supposedly a serious forum and this is a thread with several people advocating a nuclear holocaust. I can really see the humour value in that. I don't want a thing to do with you if that's your nature.

No moderates in Islam have ever condemned these groups? Have a word with yourself. A really big one. Since the early 1800s? They've been going at it since the Reformation. Don't talk about something you obviously have no understanding of. Northern Ireland has only existed since 1921. But...

How does a *ENOUGH* no personal insults...Gonz like you take a moral high ground over insults on a message board when you advocate murdering people? Ban me if you like, I no more want to remain at a message board that condones the attitudes expressed here than I would an Al-Qaeda one.

Groups like Al-Qaeda pay nothing more than lip service to Islam. They don't care about Arab civilians any more than they do Americans. This is proven by time after time by the bombs in Iraq, the bombs this week in Jordan etc. Islam is nothing more than their attempt at a moral justification...

In all honesty, if it does happen (and it probably won't), I hope it manages to clear out some of you. That way, at least out of a great tragedy we can have some consolation that we've gotten rid of a few idiots at the same time.
