I'm not interesting in debating it either. I'll never see the connection, I know you'll never fail to see it. What's done is done. However, there is still an onus on the US when it proclaims to be in the right to adhere to its own principles and behave honourably in war.

I agree here with you completely. I think paedophiles and rapists should be jailed permanently, for example, despite the fact that their mind is probably disturbed. And I'm sorry if you thought I intended that comment about being stupid towards you, I was directing it towards Winky whose...

You can apply scientific method to many things.

I don't see a difference between dead Iraqi civilians and dead American civilians.

That's not what I said. It's too late for the victims that person has already inflicted suffering upon. If I'm dead, it's of very little use to me if you execute my killer. I'm still dead. I didn't say science, I said looking at the situation scientifically. Cause and effect, not solely...

I'm not anti-US, nor am I making anti-US tirades. It's not me making statements such as "most Europeans are racist." I'm attempting to draw a comparison between poor minorities in France and those in the country of which many of the posters here reside because people seem to be gloating over the...

Firmly established by whom?

I wasn't asking why you were laughing, I don't really care. Environmental pressures always control population. If our population is growing it's only because the environment we live in allows for the growth to take place, nothing else. When resources become too limited for the population to...

It's too late, though, they already have. "Ours" as in our society. Our justice systems are based upon similar principles. We have the same problems, thus our shared experiences can contribute to a shared solution. I never claimed to have an answer for everything, no more than you do by...

I know hvala means "thank you." That's about it. Try looking for a Serbo-Croat translation, might help. The languages are quite similar, almost dialects of one another.

Indeed, it is hard to make any true comments on the veracity of the claims without seeing the documentary. However, I am still more concerned that people are willing to justify the use of white phosphorus. Whether you believe the claims or not is one thing, another is suggesting that even if...

I was wondering what this was about, then I realised. I was actually referring to Winky with that comment. I will never apologise for calling Winky stupid.

Not at all. I just don't see how imprisoning sick people with common criminals or killing them offers a solution to the problem or prevents other sick people from doing the same in future. Our justice system is a failure if all it can ever do is react to tragedy. By the time someone has been...

And also US soldiers.

Military sources are unlikely to give their names when divulging such information.

Is it that hard to answer a simple question? You made a comment, I am asking you to explain it. It would be easier just to say "no, I don't want to." Save us both the trouble.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4422086.stm Big story over here right now. Tony Blair has suffered his first defeat in the Commons since being elected Prime Minister in 1997. I do think it is a good thing that police have not been given the power to detain people without charge for...

Explain it to me then. If we've spent all these years evolving and seemingly becoming more enlightened and advanced, why would resorting to killing weaker members of society be our best solution to a problem? Wouldn't that be a gigantic step backwards?

An Italian documentary, featuring US military sources, photographic evidence and people living in Fallujah.

No, not at all. Seemingly people have reacted here to a situation which hasn't even occurred (i.e. this woman being set free).
