    However, he said that each “option has virtues in theory, but poses difficulties in practice.”

    In other words, we reserve the right to assasinate "enemys" without due legal process as we see fit...

    God I love America - land of the free, free to shoot people on any festive occasion. If you've got guns you might as well use them - the NRA have been right all along...

    God I love America - the land of the free, where you are free to shoot people on any festive occasion .... its even written into the constitution and continually promoted by the NRA and other gun supporters... whats the point in having so many guns if you cant use them??

    if the shooting does start, it will probably be the first real war the US comes out on top since WW2...

    Stop trusting the media on this, trust the military and the people making, flying and working on these planes. I don't think any of our men and women have a suicide wish.

    Unfortunately it is the very people working on this fighter who have come out and said it has many issues.... the computer combat systems apparently have huge issues which is one of the reasons the plane is running way late... if the combat systems dont work as they should then it will be a suicide mission....

    the F-35 is way over budget and riddled with problems... hard to see it ever being useful except for bankrolling Lockheed Martin and other military contractors who suck up billions of taxpayers money....

    Three years is quite a long time... lets hope they come up with a better plot (and movie) than the dissapointing Skyfall which centered on James B's mother issues...

    I don't think the US cares or needs to care...

    "Why do they hate us" asked a rather perplexed looking George W Bush ..... statements like this certainly dont do anything for the cause....

    the US has completely lost the moral high ground - something it could previously claim regardless of its covert actions...

    japan is interested in looking after Japan and who can blame them .... these free trade deals usually work in favour of multinational companies at the expense of countries...

    So the people in the WH and the current occupier, what do you call them? "Keystone Cops" would be probably a better acronym to describe the chaos going on over there.

    no - the Keystone Cops actually knew how to draw a legitimate laugh...

    Yes, it's easy to blame the last admin. For the war, but not one of you liberals add the sectarian fighting to the mix. Iran sending weapons to help the Shiites being smuggled in and Al Qaeda helping the Sunnis, that was a recipe in the making. So while a agree there were some mistakes that happened while US troops were stationed, lets not forget, you had two religious factions that hated each other for decades and the fall of Saddam just intensified it more so and with America in the middle of it all, it just added fuel to the fire.

    And who supported the minority oppressors for years until it suited them to boot Saddam out?? The USA....Sorry, you cannot just say that the US just happened to be in "the middle of it all" when they profited from Saddam for years...

    free trade talks are simply about globalisation ... in other words, giving multinationals (mainly US) as much unfettered access as possible to global markets regardless of national interests....
