IMPORTANT WRITING ON WORLD ISSUES

m8, the flaming stops here. That isnt the idea of this post.
off topic: judging by your sig i'd say you saw that quantum physics movie what the bleep.

[Phoenix of Terra]

I have read the book four times and there are no mentions of people using pregnant women as shields. What would you do if armed came into your hometown with helicopters and started parading through the streets silently?

You read the book four times, and yet you seemed to have forgotten that the mission implied was that Delta Force/Rangers were attempting to eliminate a WARlord who was causing chaos in the region. They were not marching through the streets silently, they were attempting an incisive blow against a man who was screwing over the rest of his country for a little personal power.

And I suppose the complete mutilation of the US soldiers is fine, because those civilians had every right to shoot at them (after all, they were there, who cares if they shot in self defense) and their bodies can't feel pain, so any actions against corpses are fine, right?

The Science ISN”T there. Global warming ISN”T a fact. NASA admits, once you get past their front page, they don’t really have a clue’

The science IS there. Maybe you should google facts about global warmign rather than denials. you'd be surprised at what you find.

I would just like to point out another confusing idea of yours:

Propaganda, in my mind, is the work of the devil. Or if you don’t believe in the devil, it is the most evil of evils ever created to destroy humankind.

prop·a·gan·da
–noun
1. information, ideas, or rumors deliberately spread widely to help or harm a person, group, movement, institution, nation, etc.

Now as I see it, spreading propaganda is exactly what you are doing. So, as such, either I am right and you are a very evil person (according to your own opinion), or I am wrong and you are wasting a lot of time with your book...

[The Xeno]

Xeno, I clearly stated that all facts aren ot perfect as I will be editing this majorly.

T I fully understand that, and Hope you give me the same leave when I am overcome with emotion and blur the line between fact and fiction inadvertently.

If you would use your head for thinking instead of flaming you would realize that equal force is oen of the criteria set by the UN for a just war.

Perhaps I don't place my eggs in the lap of the UN?
Perhaps I don't see them as a utopia?
Perhaps I calcuated the thousands of people they could have fed if they weren't pocketing the Oil-for-food money?

I realize that the UN has such Criteria. I also realize that the UN doesn't have to pay for their mistakes, in the way that nations trying to implement their laws do.

Indeed, perhaps we should have fought Hitler with 'equal force'.
Right down to the very end, with a 1 on 1 between a Hitler youth and a boyscout.

The science IS there. Maybe you should google facts about global warmign rather than denials. you'd be surprised at what you find.

I see those 'facts', and I see the counter facts.
So far the 'facts' I see do not suggest that we will melt in nine years because Gore runs his electric bill throug the roof.
If we have melted in nine-years then I will conceede the point by default.

you didnt answer the question. were you given the chance to choose whether the country went to war or not? And yes, I am Canadian. You obviously didn't pay that much attention to what I wrote. This would effect Canada too. The original number was from Canadian studies.

I voted for a president that I thought would act in a manner after my own.
If you want a more direct method; I'm sure we could have arranged all 300 million of us to get together in the days following 9/11, browse all the secruirty info, get briefed by the generals, and come to a decision.

I have read the book four times and there are no mentions of people using pregnant women as shields.

I apologize then. I was mixing up the instance where the 'pregant' women
suddenly trips and spills out a bunch of AK-47's from beneath her robe as she tries to get them to insurgents.

What would you do if armed came into your hometown with helicopters and started parading through the streets silently?

I hope I would not resort to using crowds as cover, women as transports, and mutilation of the enemy dead.

That isn't true at all. When 9/11 happened canada helped out. Please name one time in the last 25 years where the US has "come to the rescue" of Canada, which would have surely been destroyed had it not been for the home of the brave.

That's an odd question;
When has Canada ever faced a situation of that sort?

My sig is a amateur attempt to take a picture of hurricane, blend it through Photoshop, and fit it with a caption harking back to my days in the n00b section.
I don't not know of this 'quantum physics' movie you speak of.
though Judging by your negative reaction, I'd say you view the movie in the same light I view 'An inconvenient truth'

[Grand Admiral Martin]

Ok there is no way in hell i am wasting my time reading that, however i got the basic idea from reading xeno's post, very well done I might say. I am not in the mood to start arguing politics or the military but I will make one point about something. I noticed the part about minimum wage and what xeno said its exactly what happens and is the reason minimum wage should be kept low. why?

Raising wages leads to inflation, higher the costs to make higher the costs to buy, that leads to ppl wanting pay increases which lead to more cost increases.

following on from that is jobs get cut. Here in Ireland we have a "social partnership". It is the government, businesses and trade unions working on a deal on wages etc every year or so. I think this is the biggest load of crap. right now ou minimum wages is 8.10euro or $10.77 and it is set to rise again in june to 8.65euro or $11.50. this has made ireland a very expensive place to live. and so far in the first 3 months american and other international companies have left costing ireland 2000 jobs. yes those 2000 jobs were lost becuase ppl wanted more and more.
people go on to balme government and the business. businesses are apparently greedy! what do you call asking for 10% pay rises every year? one coming plans to leave soon and will cut 300 jobs, its reason wage costs. it can hire people in poland for 1/4 of what it pays in ireland.

greed is not a business only trait, its a basic human trait.

[Capo]

That's an odd question;
When has Canada ever faced a situation of that sort?

The FLQ is quebec, the threat of bombings at the toronto subways, the fertalizer bombs by the CN tower, the list goes on.

You are right though, canada has never had anything to that degree.

Emperor martin, I know abotu that. its caleld the wage-price spiral. remember this is UNEDITED. i will be changing lots.

So far the 'facts' I see do not suggest that we will melt in nine years because Gore runs his electric bill throug the roof.
If we have melted in nine-years then I will conceede the point by default.

Gore is hipricritical in that, which was also stated before. you really should read earleir posts so you know what youre talking about.

And actually no, I liked the movie. Its called down the rabbit hole.

And I suppose the complete mutilation of the US soldiers is fine, because those civilians had every right to shoot at them (after all, they were there, who cares if they shot in self defense) and their bodies can't feel pain, so any actions against corpses are fine, right?

Did i say that anywhere? Pleas,e point out in the form of a quote where I said that before you start accusing me.

[The Xeno]

Gore is hipricritical in that, which was also stated before. you really should read earleir posts so you know what youre talking about.

My statement still stands... According to some of those 'Facts' google brought up, both in my recent search at your behest, and form past searches i've done... we are supposed to be goo in nine years.

I was not trying to insinuate that you view Gore as an Idol, only that he is perhaps the most proliferous Global Warming spokesperson... and his claims call for hot goo.

We can debate the facts, but if I'm not goo at the dead line... Then at least Gore will have been proved wrong. Then of course, we can resume wrangling with the 100 year/Goo proponents.

And actually no, I liked the movie. Its called down the rabbit hole.

What the Bleep!?
It makes sense now; I'll edit my post.

You shouldn't edit your posts in thsi arguement long after you have psoted because it reduces your already slipping credability. I agree with Martin, Xeno, Phoenix, and Psi's little blurb on mars undergoing solar warming was also a blow to your high and mighty leftist ideals. now I'm sorry but you can't really back up most of your claims. Your thrownng fuel on your bonifre but don't have the emans to keep it going and are incapable to ending the blaze when the facts presented should do so. I believe this should be locked becuase it will reduce into a flame war. And if large arguements appear bashing the U.S. in anyway i personally will be at the head of the flame posts as much as I'd rather not be. Patriotism may be overated in Capo's opinion but I for one love it.

I apologize for spelling errors I don't have the urge to go back and correct them.

[Capo]

siris, you really should stop takign time to correct spelling errors and use it to read the first few posts. why does nobody read the posts? I will say it again:


This is the begninning of an opinion piece. Im not editing my posts, im editing the topics with sugegstions and criticism from the peopel who post here.

You shouldn't edit your posts in thsi arguement long after you have psoted because it reduces your already slipping credability.

It changes no credibility. I am editing, not changing posts. i have 49 pages so far. Also, to make it a bit more fair and unbiased, I have chanegd the first pages to be less targeted at the US (except the global warming section, which I now targeted at the US and Chian more, becasue they are the biggest contributors of greenhouse gases). The newer version is much less targeting and takes no sides for or against people.

And, by the way, I liked gores movie but he is in my view the ultimate hipricate. He gives a presentation around the world on global warming over a thousand times in a quarter of the existign countries, but his house uses like 30 times the average amount of electricity.

ALSO, I don't believe this should be locked. I put it on here for feedback and flamign, even though its kind of brutal and primal, is part of that. If a flame war helps me change this properly then thats what I want.

IF IT GETS OUT OF CONTROL THEN I WILL PUT IN A REQUEST THAT IT BE DELETED.

I hate people who act as if tehy know the solution to everything, much like you capo. your ideas are biased and do not belong in a gaming forum. Go find a political forum that favors terrorists and the kind of people you support and post your booklet on your ideology there because your only going to lead to problems here. Ahhh if only this were ancient Rome. Someone would have found themselves on a small desolate rock in the middle of the ocean by now.

Easy now... That is what I assumed the nature of the first post was, when I first posted. However,

This is the begninning of an opinion piece. Im not editing my posts, im editing the topics with sugegstions and criticism from the peopel who post here. [.......] ALSO, I don't believe this should be locked. I put it on here for feedback and flamign, even though its kind of brutal and primal, is part of that. If a flame war helps me change this properly then thats what I want.

If that is the case, then go for it.
I would suggest however, that you break it into smaller chunks;
Let the criticisms focus on that topic, fix it, and post a new one.

As it stands, it's hard to amend that whole thing in one bite, and attacks upon it are reduced to rather emotional grandstanding and gut-reactions; to get into specifics with such a large block of text would require a good couple of hours in a single sitting.

If you are truly open to working towards ‘truth’… then my flaming must be directed at your method. Not material.

The problem is, you didn't start this as a search for truth: but as a rant.
So which is it?

Im writing a book on polotics and this is the first few pages of what I already have. its basically a rant about the world and I doubt it will ever be published, except as an internet opinion piece. Go ahead and disagree, I dont care and I dont want to hear about it. This is only my opinion, you dont have to agree with it.'

[Capo]

I started with rant as the title to catch attention ( i tried this before on a different forum with the title I have now and got no htis). It has been changed now (it worked).

True, may have been a better idea to cut it into smaller chunks but I didn't have time to make multiple posts. When im on most of the time im on for 5 mintue periods. Im on dial up and it sucks.

I AM NOW TRYING TO KILL THIS FORUM TOPIC.

Also:

Ahhh if only this were ancient Rome. Someone would have found themselves on a small desolate rock in the middle of the ocean by now.

Why thank you for the lovely comment on how yo would like to kill me by leaving me out on a desloate island. Thanks to global warming if I survive there for 9 more years I will either be goo or the researchers will be proven wrong.

(thats a cruel and unusual punishment, and im going to ask you again to take you negative outlook, whether opinionated or not, to a different forum topic)

[The Xeno]

Locked then
