    War? Combat zone? Geez - do you really think that's how life is in that area?

    Oh I know all that - I just find it funny when they make fools out of themselves in public. I have no hope of ever convincing a US citizen (or an Israeli citizen) that they need to change their view of the world for the rest of us to stop laughing/despising them.

    ... and that somehow justifies Israel breaking every single UN resolution ever written - and the only reason for them not being mor harshly dealt with is because the US blocks all resolutions Israel doesn't like? Does it justify Israel not following the rules laid out in the peace agreements? Does that give Israel the right to kill civilians, children and peace workers at will?

    For an explanation to why the state of Israel has expanded its borders you need to look no longer than their religion. They truly believe they have a God-given right to the _whole_ country - not just the area they got for free from the former UN - but current Palestine too.

    I know my history - now - do you know anything about that region? Do you know that Israel currently occupies twice the area they were given by the previous incarnation of the UN? Do you know that they're building a wall around "their" country - which just happens to be including a lot of that illegally occupied territory?

    I'm also interested in hearing if anyone who replied to me claiming Palestinians are terrorists because they're targetting civilians/children know that Israel are targetting civilians/children themselves? What does that make the state of Israel?

    Really.

    Defending your own country against and invader (please check it for yourself - that's what Israel is) is not "terrorism".

    For the US citizens: If Mexico invades Texas, you're allowed to defen yourselves without Mexico calling you terrorists.

  8. Re:Great.. More junk science.. on 3G Waves Causes Headaches, Sharpens Memory · · Score: 2, Interesting
    I work in the telecom industry. Last year when I started an assignment at one of the 3G-equipment manufacturers (where there is an active 3G network) I started having problems feeling "blanked out" in the afternoons. I couldn't explain it, tried different eating habits, excercising and working out. No go. When that assignment ended, the problems ended.

    I'm now on an assignment where I work with 3G again - and while I still feel the same way occassionally, it's not as bad. It _does_ happen though - and up until today when I saw this piece of research I hadn't even thought about 3G being the culprit (I, as you, know that we live in an ocean of radiation already).

    It's a nice explanation that fit what I've experienced myself though. In addition the feeling "blanked out" (sorry, it's hard to describe) my migraine did/has also gotten worse (at least once a week I go home from work with a migraine attack in the works. Sometimes more often).


    Idiotic replies not welcome - if you don't have migraine you have no idea ...

    While these might be coincidences, the next might not. Why would a terrorist smuggle in a bomb to take out a city when he could just as easily cause the same distress by chopping down a few trees at the right place? (Yes, falling trees caused the blackouts in Italy and Sweden/Denmark).

    Allah, God and Jehova (Jahve) are three names for the same deity. If you knew anything about religion you would know that, and you might even know the extreme similarities between Islam, Judaism and Christianity.

    The UN created the nation of Israel out of good will. Israel has used that nation to suppress a whole people - including building a second "Berlin wall" at the moment.

    I would condemn _any_ nation doing what Israel is doing - and as long as the US is doing nothing but patting Israel on its head I'll do what I can to raise people's awareness of this.

    You might want to read up on how many time the _world_ (i.e, all nations in the UN) has wanted to condemn Israel for what they're doing to the Palestinians, only to have _the USA_ (again and again and again) veto the resolution.

    Please look it up. If the US stopped doing that you'd see a lot more support for the US - from all countries - not only Arab countries.
