Whereever radical islam is taught, you get this. It is only a question of time until the next spectacular one slips through.
By concetrating on only catching this shahid or that, the Western police forces are blind to fhe forest because there are too many trees.

It is amazing to see how Obama, Sarkozy, and other Western leaders are itching to get once again involved in an internal conflict in an Arab country, with the predictable disastrous results.
Much as I dislike Putin, but in this case he is right.

No need to guess my political belief or yours -- we post them here.
Fact: Israel has not been "stealing land".... it has been shrinking since the 67 war. Check your facts.
Fact: The muslim Arab population inside Israel (as well as outside) is growing much faster than the Jewish population. At this rate, it is a question of time until Jews will be a minority even inside Israel proper. So explain again who is "breeding like rabbits"?

Israel has been doing nothing of the sort. The muslim Arab population both in Israel, in the West Bank, and in Gazah is growing by leaps and bounds. Some "genocide"...
Ahmedinejad, on the other hand, is promising the "real holocaust" on Israel, and is building the weapons to carry it out.

I wonder what Noda would say if Japan was in Iranian missile range and the islamic republic was declaring that the "dirty bacteria" Japan should be wiped out.
What this hypocrit is really saying is: "Don´t mess with our oil supply".

Sure, but not with windmills. Those stupid contraptions are more a drain on the power grid than anything else.

More pie-in-the-sky BS.
They are after government pork, i.e. we all will pay for this.
Better than the famous "bridges to nowhere" maybe, but still government pork and nothing else.
The most ecomical mode for those stupid windmills is when they are standing still.... that way they cost least for all of us.

Mario a fiscally responsible PM?? Come on. More likely Merkel told him that Germany is not going to pay, thus pulling the plug.
Japan should pull out of this nonsense too. Or re-use the 1964 facilities.

That is so sad. Something similar happened in my neighbourhood last year. A 3 and a 5 year old should never be left alone in the house, especially not when heaters are on.

I have been skiing in Shiga Kogen, and Aussies are appearing there too this year, lots of them. I haven't seen any of them caus any trouble, so afaic they are doing their bit to prop up the local economy (Japanese ski tourism is way down compared to before).
As for the dead guy, we can only speculate if he was drunk. He might have just lost his way, I don´t think they have many blizzards in Australia.

What you mean "counter"? It is a hell of a lot easier to attack a couple of oil tankers than to protect every single one of the from every single dynamite-laded speedboat.
Iran does not need aircraft carriers and similar expensive gimmics shut down the world`s gas station.

Obama started his office with the famous brown-nosing speech to the islamic world in Cairo, and has since gone to endlessly appease islamists and throw Israel under the bus.
Get real, open your eyes, and stop pretending Obamas foreign islamophile dhimmi policy is not a fact.

Triumvere:
You are assuming that Irans theocracy is motivated by rational thinking and aspects such as material wealth. That is a fundamentally wrong assessment.
The mullahs are acting on much deeper motive; they are acting to please god. Step back and think: Is there any rational or material reason to want to destroy Israel? If they were motivated by material reasons, they would want to trade with the Jewish state, and not to wipe out the "dirty bacteria".

Absolutely. Attac king ship ping in the Str ait of Ho rmus is an obvious reac tion by Iran. And world-wide oil pri ces will of course go throu gh the roof. So what is your preferred solution? Sa crifice Isra el and its inhabitants in exchange for ch eap oil, as long as it lasts?

The top U.S. Navy official in the Gulf said Sunday he takes Iran’s military capabilities seriously but insists his forces are prepared
His forces might be prepared, but Barack Hussein is not. I predict that Barack Husseins USA will sit idly by while Ahmedinejad finalizes his bomb. (Not quite "idly" though... Barack will spare no effort to prevent Israel from taking out Iran`s nukes.)
