I *in the tiniest way* regret making this discussion topic...
And yet, it is so amusing to see two people talk about the differences between network channels owned by the FOX company.... Although, it could soon become cruel and unusual punishment... Just Oh so conflicting....Oh Don't mind me...keep talking...

Yeah, and don't forget George Clooney! What a jerk! Yeah, Alec Baldwin's a biggie too. Hollywood seems to be Jerk City.

No they're jerks because they think they're right...they aren't.

No, George Clooney is a jerk because he mocks Charlton Heston's Alzheimer's. That was why the Julia Roberts quote upset me. It doesn't matter to me that she's a Democrat: what matters is that she resorts to such petty name-calling and blatant intolerance of those who have differing views. Surely you don't think that there is nothing wrong with mocking someone for having Alzheimer's? Is that just a difference of opinion?

Well my favorite (well I'm assuming) Iraqi blogger stopped posting. I hope he isn't dead (he predicted last week the war would turn him into "pasta sauce") not only cause all death is terrible but because his witty comments on American occupation will be entertaining. And he makes for better coverage than TV.

Bad news /good news:
Bad news: the Turks are moving into Iraqi Kurdistan Good news: the Americans are extremely unhappy about it Even better news(if it's confirmed): U.S. forces may already have seized Kirkuk

In general, people may believe in sanctions, international attention and pressure. The sad thing is of course that this does not affect the dictators in these countries, only their people who get to suffer even more. Quote:
It's right I'm sort of a devils advocate. But I don't find it difficult. Even though I've taken a stand and now support the war, it was a hard decision to take. I can easily understand and sympathise with the arguments I've given above. But then I think, and hope, the situation for the Iraqi people will get better in the long run with a new regime, and I also think Saddam has played the cat-and-mouse game with the UN long enough. Well, I don't have to repeat all the pro-war arguments, many posters here have been through them many times already

huh? The US did not from the beginning clearly state they wouldn't listen to the majority of the UN. If that were the case they would not have gone to the UN in the first place. Also, when the US/UK/Spain started to doubt the UN was when France said "we will veto anything". Let's get some facts straight....
