    Neocons leaving Bush like rats from a sinking ship

    Rumsfeld invasion lite is NOT the root cause of the disaster. When Japan and Germany were defeated, the leadership of the U.S. were not the morally corrupt bunch of neo-cons intent only on furthering their own riches at the detriment of everyone else in the world. The leadership of the U.S...

    Ask Iranians

    The latest crisis in Lebanon was triggered by an attack in the border on an Isreali patrol between 2 parties at war (low key conflict between Hizbollah and IDF), the solders were captured for prisoner exchange purposes. The last bombs that went off in Isreal targeting civillians that is...

    What is needed in Civ4 mod if it is to simulate current geopolitics?

    I would think the mod requires the following: 1) Ability name: Lebanonize Ability to bomb the city of a smaller nation without the smaller nation declaring war because that nation's power graph is much lower than yours. All infrastructure in the target city destoryed. Roads, rails...

    If there are more moderate Muslims, why don't they protest the terorists?

    I am curious how do u make a judgement about the cynical attitude towards life and death of the Chinese people, when it is in fact a global behaviour. How many average U.S. citizens felt any pang of regret or remose when 10, 20, 100 (omg the numbers just keep rising...) Lebanon civilians die of...

    You are correct. I should have said "Geroge Bush and Isreal call Hamas terrorists when they attack Isreali interests and cause collateral damages (not that I condone killing innocents)." instead. Apologies. Not a very good comparison the 3rd one.

    Agree wholeheartedly. Hamas are the democratically elected representatives of the Palestinians. Bush is a court appoint president of the Americans in U.S.A (1st term). Hama's work at the ground level to support their people to overcome everyday hardships caused by the illegal occupation...

    This MAY be on topic if only via an attempted mathematical way. Example: Take a sequence of 10 coin flips. The sequence HTHTHTHTHT and THTHTHTHTH occurs only in 2 cases out of a possible 2^10 (1024) combinations. In majority of them, you can find sequences of HHH, TTT occuring relatively...

    Apologies in advance for going off topic again. Agreed. Ahhh... this is where a conundrum for me comes in. The probability *apparently* only exist because we do not have the knowledge of the outcome. Now I will go out on a limb here and make a postulate: Actually the real probability is...

    bad great generals

    This thread is so interesting that I cannot resist registering myself and making my post. Before I start I'll like to say that I agree with everyone minus Kcbrett that his understanding of statistics of wrong and the quantum mechanics reference he tried to make is so way beyond him that he...
