they have 100,000 million worth of oil on board. Cannot they afford to hire a few Green berets to guard the ship?

You are judging a poster who loves his missus and did not have a shotgun wedding? Well those on the moral high ground should know that if they judge, they will be judged much harder. seesaw is right. In one hand you hold judgment and in the other you are judged by it.

Japanese always get Christmas technically right but miss the point completely. Its just another cold winter day for romulus. I even hate it when they give me gifts. Its just a cliche. Romulus knows to get back to Italy to enjoy a real Christmas despite the cost of air travel.

maninjapan79,
been thrashed by southern hemisphere teams recently have you? or perhaps you live in a country where people from the 3rd world are not welcome. Sure, NZ and Aus have a few talented Islanders on their teams but they are the product of domestic rugby, not Island rugby. By your account Island rugby should conquer all. That is far and beyond their means. Obviously playing Rugby in NZ and Aus has enhanced the skills of an Islander just as it has the players who are natural citizens. This slur is just more propaganda by a hater of the powerful southern unions where rugby is played and developed at a superior level.

was not it the Republicans who enforced the "Patriot Act" that stripped the human rights from U.S citizens? What can Obama possibly do to top that?

they should sell off billions of yen first thing tomorrow. totally agree. Japanese companies are having hard times and cannot employ new staff. what does that do to the economy? no bonus for salarybots, no new jobs being created etc....its a disaster for Japan having the Yen so high against big trading partners.

People think that Osama is the king pin of terror attacks in this world, and that if he is caught its all over. It kind of reminds me of the Satan theory. One master dark lord in control of many demons. Well Osama has not been bought to fair trial and I wonder if there is any evidence to convict him of any of the crimes he is blamed of. Sure...the videos. But it may just be the ravings of a madman.
There are plenty of terrorists in this world and like a hydra, cut off one head and another will grow. Osama is not to blame for every single extremist response that we see happen in our world and hurling bombs at them is not a deterrent. Osama is in all likelihood dead but is the worlds new grim reaper.
I got tired of hearing about him. If he were alive he would have been dragged out of a spider hole just like Saddam was by now. I do not buy into this great Satan myth at all.

Cleo, Mad, Flag,
Great posts. This war is the biggest heist of American tax payer dollars in history. It makes subprime look like a credit card debt. Look how it inflated oil prices through the roof over the past few years. so many people got rich by the blood of the Iraqi people and at the expense of the US tax payer and soldiers. what a scam.
