Would be nice to not take this subject seriously, but with Iran now enriching and refusing to stop enriching ever again, there are real storm clouds on the horizon...
Yes ok, will replace that with Islamic terrorist with muslim sympathizers... and because of Guantanamo these dangerous inmates can not get a lawyer and start using the law to evade being held (out of circualtion) where they can do no harm to ordinary people or until they have given up the infomation that they may hold.
Why don't you start looking at the reasons why those people are being held in the first place, not the current position they are in, D Hicks is a prime example.
The 9/11 hijackers broke no laws did nothing wrong until 9/11... !
Considering how many troops are in Iraq and the vicious cowardly attacks that these troops face day in day out in some areas of that country, the amount of crimes coming out is minor..
also wikipedia is known to distort facts, leave out facts, etc. but a reference none the less.
Yes that is a very interesting documentary disarray, there are three parts to it if I remember correctly.
I don't think metric is too far of the point there at all.al CIAda. its a lie. its a phanton organisation. the us invented an enemy.
Superfly I just think you need to realise that there are extremists everywhere and its not fair to label the whole group ie "Muslims" as trouble makers,
ie not all Earth conscious conservationists are like Green Peace,
Not all Westerns want to bomb Iran
I'm Christian and sometimes when I hear some of the stuff that the extremist Christians preach about the end of day, well its a little scary, but that doens't mean all Christians are bible bashers
Anyway you seem pretty passionate about all this and sound like quite a "tough guy"
So why not enlist and go over there and do something about it?
I mean its easy for you to be a keyboard/internet warrior why not do something about it if you fell so strongly about it?
p.s. Just so you know the Israelis will take care of any Iranian threat
(CBS) A second American aircraft carrier steamed into the Persian Gulf on Tuesday as the Pentagon ordered military commanders to develop new options for attacking Iran. CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports that the planning is being driven by what one officer called the "increasingly hostile role" Iran is playing in Iraq - smuggling weapons into Iraq for use against American troops.
"What the Iranians are doing is killing American servicemen and -women inside Iraq," said Secretary of Defense Robert Gates.
U.S. officials are also concerned by Iranian harassment of U.S. ships in the Persian Gulf as well as Iran's still growing nuclear program. New pictures of Iran's uranium enrichment plant show the country's defense minister in the background, as if deliberately mocking a recent finding by U.S. intelligence that Iran had ceased work on a nuclear weapon.
No attacks are imminent and the last thing the Pentagon wants is another war, but Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mike Mullen has warned Iran not to assume the U.S. military can't strike.
"I have reserve capability, in particular our Navy and our Air Force so it would be a mistake to think that we are out of combat capability," Mullen said.
Targets would include everything from the plants where weapons are made to the headquarters of the organization known as the Quds Force which directs operations in Iraq. Later this week Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is expected to confront the Iranians with evidence of their meddling and demand a halt.
If that doesn't produce results, the State Department has begun drafting an ultimatum that would tell the Iranians to knock it off - or else.
Something ive noticed lately and on a slightly different note is our Russian mates have been quiet as Mouses ? Not just on Iran but on everything ...
Do people still think that corporations and corporate funded governments care about human lives in non western countries?
They have all been following the same formula, the US are very good at it:
1. PR campaigns to rally public sympathy
2. PR campaign that an intervention will make things better
3. They go in and loot the crap out of the country while media keeps up the humanitarian intervention front.
Congo is the most extreme:
2 billion are dead as a result of keeping the western world supplied with coltan, an ore used in computer chips. But no one talks about that in the media. Instead they keep bringing up the Rwanda genocide and the endangered mountain gorillas as reason for occupation.
Sudan, Tibet and Lebanon next on the list?
Here is a bit of history for those who are still in doubt as to motives of any western intervention:

China have no moral position in the world after what they have done in Sudan. They are just the same as the US, using their strength to secure resources and security for themselves while being complicit in the destruction of other peoples. It's an outrage, but just a normal thing that we do to each other. Why hasn't the rest of the world taken action? Because it doesn't really effect us. Really, who cares about central Africa? Just a few left wing vegie munchie greenies really. And your odd celebrity feeling guilty about taking $5m to make a movie and trying to develop some good karma so they don't go to hell. Africa is a distraction really. Best we just put a fence around it drop in lots of machetes and let them go for it. But, we should take out all the resources first of course.Sudan !!! .. President Bush is trying to place santions on the Sudanise government because of Dafur and send in a powerful UN peace keeping force... but what country is standing in the way.. CHINA ... with 10 billion worth of investments in Sudan, basically being given a free hand to rape the Sudan resources by gifting the government, even supply high tech weapons to the Sudanise army (one of the most irresponsible arms sales in recent times ) and CHINA has demanded that the Sudan government gets to say what countries will make up any peace keeping force and what ROE they operate under. End result is a badly equipped peace keeping force, with it's hands tied with no western armies part of that peace keeping force. Innocent people still die everyday, women are getting raped, millions live in misery....this is CHINA in Africa....
Iran responds to world powers' nuclear offer
Posted 5 hours 31 minutes ago
Iran has responded to an incentives package offered by six world powers aimed at resolving a stand-off over its disputed nuclear ambitions.
There was no word on the content of Iran's reply - submitted to EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana - to the offer of talks on economic and other benefits if Tehran halts nuclear work the West suspects is aimed at making bombs.
Iran's chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, told Mr Solana by telephone that Tehran had prepared its response by concentrating on common ground between the two sides and with a "constructive and creative outlook".
The two agreed to hold further discussions later this month, Iranian state radio said.
Iran's official IRNA news agency said the country's ambassador to Brussels presented its reply to Mr Solana, whose office later confirmed it had received it.
The offer of trade and other incentives proposed by the United States, China, Russia, Germany, Britain and France was presented to Iran by Mr Solana last month. etc
