Hmm... I think that one of the things that make some people get anti-american views, is read americans talking about impose american values in countries like Iran but avoid to mention countries like Saudi Arabia. I think that in english is called double-standard and people around the world really hate it.

Hmm... In my humble opinion, some people is just angry that a few spechs of peace, respect and friendship from a pacifist president have more impact in the regime on Iran than all the threats of bombing from a hardliner president. No matter how much people play with the words, the cold fact is that right now the reputation of the regime on Iran is going down and the reputation of the USA is going up and that is thanks to Obama. If you can read other languages you can see how much anti-americanism is falling these days and that means that terrorism is less popular. The kind of action that the moderates muslims are waithing from the USA is more pressure on Israel, not in Iran.

I like it. Its different, like the Wii compared with the PS3. The new interface change how we use it. And that is good, because it bring innovation to the market. Did you saw the video of the Project Natal? That some amazing stuff. Is like the next step is all about the user interface, just like the mouse, the wii-mote and the multi-touch screen.

I agree with jackfish, I dont care how much things J companies put on a ketai, if some cell phone can provide a better interface with a bigger screen, then that is more user friendly. It hurt my eyes reading the news in a small screens and write with the numeric keyboard take to much time for use Google or Wikipedia.

In the few cases where there is no hope... Why force people to keep suffering when only a miracle can end the pain? Is selfish an unhuman dont allow suicide in these extreme cases.

Hmm... I think that we just need to see if TATA can make real the E-Nano. Even if the indian electric car end costing 1.000.000,- yen in J, it sound like a better deal to me.

I wonder why americans spend so much energy talking about a minor protocol mistake, in place of talk about foreign policy. I think that is not worst than GWB saying that Irak was a success or half as bad as Donald Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam Hussein. Also not worst than when the americans soldiers dont complained about working with sunnies terrorists that killed american soldiers and that the USA payed money to them. I think that is kind of late for keep being "arrogant", when you need to forgive and work with ex-terrorists for end terrorism or support the 7th most represive regime for secure a source of oil. Is Hubris what got the USA in the tragedy of Irak, in first place, so be a little humble, is not so terrible if no american civilian and/or soldier get killed for that.

Is true that a no unionized workforce cut costs. But even then, the quality of the cars dont improved so much for make a difference. The unions is an important factor, but not the only one on the problem. Now, the question is: You are going to make the other automakers get unionized and lose in price to imported cars? Or get the benefits of americans auto workers on the big three for save the jobs?

Is obvious that NK is taking advantage that USA being busy on Irak and Afganistan, plus thinking that Obama is weak for offer an open hand. I think that if NK attack SK, J must to seriosly consider to amend the art.9 for allow collective defense and send help to SK. If is for our own safety, I dont think that we are so in danger that we need to amend the constitution, but if it is for protect civilians in SK, that is different. In my opinion, we owe at least these to them for what J did in the past. In fact, I think that the only way they can forgive us some day is we are ready to risk our lives for protect their civilians.
