  1. WHAT was the point of destroying a country that had the highest living standards in Africa?? Sure wasn't to bring "democracy". The setting up of an Africa development fund in competition to IMF and World bank was the nail in Ghadaffi's coffin.

  3. However as the result of US inspired destruction of Libya there ARE weapons being moved to Syria. ISIS has been a major benefactor of U.S. weapons.
  4. The extra taxing/fining/punishment/education of those who commit REAL crimes against tourists, even the "clueless & unaware" is a good thing. I think it might work in other countries too. Pick on a tourist and the penalty doubles.
  5. California Tells Court It Can’t Release Inmates Early Because It Would Lose Cheap Prison Labor http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2014/11/17/3592964/how-californias-program-to-have-inmates-fight-wildfires-could-be-keeping-people-behind-bars/ by Nicole Flatow Posted on November 17, 2014 Another potential obstacle to addressing the U.S. epidemic of mass incarceration has emerged: The utility of cheap prison labor.

Scott Walker: Denying Health Care To Low-Income People Helps Them ‘Live The American Dream’ http://thinkprogress.org/health/2014/11/14/3592511/scott-walker-medicaid-expansion/ by Tara Culp-Ressler Posted on November 14, 2014 The Wisconsin governor defended his fellow GOP leaders' decision to block Medicaid expansion, saying poor people need to enter the workforce.
  10. It's a SPECTACULAR achievement that like the moon landing of a previous generation will inspire a lot of kids to take up and be proud of science in schools unlike that anti science other mob of "Luddites"!

  15. Who said the work was shoddy. For IT'S TIME it was a masterpiece of slide rule engineering. Access to ALL of the buildings was VERY EASY. All the lift shafts were being refurbished which gave unfettered access to all structural areas. Why don't you look at the 911 Engineers for truth material www.ae911truth.org/ unless you think it's too "loony toon" to question the "official" work. If you cripple or limit the "terms of reference" you can always get the results you desire. "Nothing to see here... move along". We already have a group here who think SEALS should just STFU NO MATTER what. Ex Mil like "Blackwater" etc. Who said "the government" did it? Who got the insurance money? ALWAYS "follow the money".
  16. It was "so hot" the black boxes vaporised?? or "someone" stole them, mislabeled them in a giant warehouse where they are now "lost" until some future episode of CSI.
  17. Obama tells the FCC to implement real net neutrality. And he's serious. (Gigaom): https://gigaom.com/2014/11/10/obama-tells-the-fcc-to-implement-real-net-neutrality-and-hes-serious/ "Proving himself the policy nerd who pundits deride, President Obama has issued a comprehensive statement on network neutrality that covers all of the points left uncovered in his generic praise for the policy a few weeks back. The president is calling for the FCC to implement Title II rules from the Telecommunications Act of 1934, which is what the ISPs view as the nuclear option when it comes to network neutrality rules. Such rules would seek to prevent ISPs from blocking or slowing lawful content on both their last mile networks and at interconnection points. The president also called for network neutrality rules to apply to wireless networks, something that the original Open Internet Order from 2010 didn't even do. These are some pretty big calls for actions, and so far the ISPs aren't impressed." - - - "...the ISP's aren't impressed ..."

Ted Cruz (R-Texas) took to Twitter Monday to lash out against President Barack Obama's net neutrality endorsement by comparing it to the health care law." - - - The Twitter responses to Cruz's tweet make for interesting reading. I even added my own, which -- for the sake of decorum -- I will not repeat here. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren@vortex.com): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info
  18. In a similar vein "But all nations are not equal. The United States has inherited the role that European colonizers played for hundreds of years. And like the ruling powers in the old colonial system, the United States wields a disproportionate amount of political, economic and military power in contemporary imperialism. As a result of this dominance, 121 million American voters hold the fate of billions in their hands every four years." ... "But the fate of the world’s population is the farthest thing from the minds of most US voters at election time. They are primarily focused on their own immediate needs such as jobs, taxes, security and other issues that they perceive to be of importance to their daily lives. They are not concerned with—or fail to see—how the political, economic and military policies implemented globally by the government they elect negatively impact many people around the world. Consequently, there is little chance of Americans voting against what they perceive to be their own interests for the benefit of a majority of the world’s population"... "Washington inevitably responds in violent ways to defend the status quo. This is why so many people around the world do not believe that the United States is a force for good. In fact, in a 2013 WIN/Gallup poll conducted in 68 countries, the United States was overwhelmingly viewed as the greatest threat to world peace—as it is each year the survey is conducted."... http://www.counterpunch.org/2014/11/07/revolution-in-the-united-states/
  19. That last guy looks like "Chuck Norris". Remember the ENTIRE multiverse is only 6000 years old...
  20. Most US Americans have NO idea what socialism is, and have been brain washed into thinking it means "communism". Mean while over at the corporate welfare centre the real robbers are making out like the bandits they are. Remember the Tea party signs with "Keep your socialist hands off my Medicare"
