The governments of the Western nations are as much to blame for making drugs illegal with NO SCIENTIFIC RATIONALE for doing so.

“They said that they only intended to travel to Afghanistan to help their Muslim brothers who are in trouble, who are bleeding and who are being victimized by Western forces."

Yeah, right. Three-quarters of all civilian deaths in Afghanistan are at the hands of the Taliban. Last I checked,…

This is difficult work for the Mexican government, but the only way to defeat this level of corruption is to stand up to it. I agree with the first 2 posters here.

The idiocy continues.

So you're saying you're rather Obama and Brown send in the troops instead of training the Yemeni police to deal with terrorism? It's been known for some time now that the crazies have been operating out of Yemen and Somalia. Or would you rather just leave…

I don't think that anybody would attack a soccer team. Everybody loves soccer and soccer brings people together. What would be the gain?

Cricket is the most popular sport in Pakistan, yet terrorists ambushed the Sri Lankan team's bus killing a few people. It was only the bravery of…

Technically, if the election is unconstitutional, then the current government should be re-named a caretaker government and electoral boundaries should be redrawn and elections held as soon as possible. It is nonsense to say the DPJ should be dismissed as the problem was clearly caused by the party in power…

I wonder what the Japanese side has to say about the AHS Centaur. Do they also say it was a mistake; maybe poor visibility through the periscope.

If I recall my reading of this incident, it was a clear night, the ship was well lit and clearly marked as…

"The metropolitan government has asked the JOC to bear personnel costs for JOC officials who were seconded to the Tokyo 2016 Olympic Games Bid Committee."

If the JOC members were seconded, then the Tokyo people should foot the bill. If you borrow people from another department, you can't expect…
