Bradley committed a crime a really bad crime. It was treason. You can't have committed in the military. He should absolutely spend the rest of his life in jail.
Assange's Wikileaks activity was perfectly legal and he should be left alone for that. I have no idea if he committed a crime in Sweden, but at this point I wouldn't be surprised to find out that he did. He talks like a narcissistic sociopath.
Actually most of those agencies believed that they didn't, and stated as much. As did the non-Cheney controlled American analysts. It was pretty obvious at the time that the Bush/Cheney were looking for a pretext for war.
Thats not the case this time. Iran is an existential threat an ally. Has actively supported our enemies. Is unequivocally known to be enriching uranium. Has traded bomb and missile technology with a country that openly admits to be developing weapons to target the U.S..
Furthermore no one is talking about regime change. The hit that WILL come to Iran is going to be aimed at the nuclear program and overwhelmingly specops/aerial/naval, which in fact adds credibility to the motives.
I think its an absolute lock that any ICBM attack on the US (especially NK, can't let China get any ideas) will result in an immediate nuclear retaliation. Failure to do so would undermine MAD, and the US deterrent would become useless.
They aren't big nukes necessarily. The W88 is actually very small, 475kt.
Each trident II can drop up to 9 of them though (4 legally under start) and an Ohio can carry up to 24 Tridents. Plenty to knock out all of NK with a relatively small amount of fallout.
If they ever actually launched something at the continental US it would be be a matter of minutes before all of NK was a glowing wasteland. There would be no build up/airstrikes/conventional assault, one of the dozen SLBM armed Ohio's would wipe NK out in 20 minutes.
NYC gets about 65 (NYS about 72) cents back on our tax dollars, one of the lowest rates of return in the country.
We are subsidizing the rest of the country. Odds are good that if taxes reflected your actual consumption you would be pretty pissed off. We would be thrilled though if the rest of the country started to pull it's weight,
Flamebait? Hes spot on. If we were actually interested in reducing violence we would tax religion to death. Nothing better demonstrates government's vested interest in violence then the tax free status of religion.
Plenty of great scientists have been Christians. However thats an irrelevant an aside. Throughout history great people have done great things in spite of their religious affiliations. Its like the classic 'Stalin was an atheist' argument level by other irrational people of faith, just an irrelevant aside used by people who prefer arguing from emotion.

Agreed. There is no clear data on this either way for obvious reasons.
Did you really call killing Osama a political assassination?
" 0DT takes a very disgusting pro-torture stance, which is pure propaganda bordering on outright fantasy."

They have already announced that it will be an original story, not Zahn.

They actually ARE insane in NK. Really.

Blast radius from a W88 is 3.3 miles.
NYC has been gaining in population and business formation. Upstate is in decline, but whatever.
Three weeks?

You have no idea what you are talking about regarding crime. Its MUCH worse in DFW. In fact you guys seem to be really big on rape. WTF?
25% more murders, almost 400% the rapes, 4x the burglaries, almost triple the thefts. You guys are a bunch of criminals.

Taxes ARE lower, however employment, income and education levels are too. Nice try though!
They aren't paying for it at all. We subsidize them. We get back under 70cents on the dollar in New York.
PLEASE stop participating in our civilization, it will save us lots of money.

Skip the lasers. Hit the power plants.
Was there any people that was willing to educate itselves on grammar?

By your own logic cax avoidance is the right thing to do if you want to force government to do less.
Republicans don't like government running your life? Democrats don't like business running your life?
This is all news to me. It seems like they have different marketing, but actual differences are limited to civil rights and religion.
Democrats have blown up plenty of shit in the middle east. They will blow up plenty more. They just have better PR.
If Obama doesn't end up blowing up shit in Iran Id be surprised. Who paid for the bombs in Gaza again?
"I oppose Republican hypocrisy and duplicity on Corporate Welfare"
But not Democrat hypocrisy? You are kidding yourself if you think there is actually a difference between the two on this.
"I think I have lied maybe once in the last year."
I'd bet money that you are lying to yourself if you actually believe that.
