Except those documents wouldn't be secret in the first place? And if he did get hold of some secret documents from the Taliban the whole wikileaks infrastructure wouldn't be needed because no-one would be pressuring them to take it down.
I love the fact that this story has over 800 comments but the video itself has only 365 views. Meaning a tonne of people are talking out of their arse's.
It's the Heartland institute- these were the guys payed billions by Phillip-Morris in order to 'prove' smoking doesn't kill. They're now working for Exxon-Mobile, everything they have to say is suspect.
CF, the list of "500 Scientists that deny climate change" of which dozens said they were being misrepresented and were fully convinced climate change was occurring, yet Heartland refused to remove them from the list.
I don't think can classify Europe like that - your kids would probably be lucky to go to an average Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Belgium school - Even German schools are pretty good.
The sheer number of teachers and people they interact with makes it impossible for any one view to dominate? Even if one teacher was say - an ardent Communist - there would be just as many views around to contradict him, meaning that brainwashing simply isn't possible to the degree it is at home.
Says who? If you're discussing Human rights you may have a point (that I'd disagree with, but still valid) but constitutions generally enumerate Legal rights, which are a different kettle of fish.
And Legal rights are quite clearly granted by governments to the people within their territory. Therefore one of the legal rights of children within Germany is to that of a full education which the state doesn't feel these parents are providing.
You're missing the implied 'rest of' as in "it's not so attractive to the [rest of] the first world". Why would an American need to emigrate to America?
Not in the UK or most of the EU as far as I know, its the job of the manufactures. And rightly so IMHO as they probably know more about the actual device.
What do you mean now? We've always done it this way.
Fact is it's not broken English, its perfectly correct British English according to any Dictionary or authority you care to look at. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean its wrong.
Surely attempting to fix all those irregular verbs would be a more useful use of your time:-P
But surely there's no difference? The qualities of the team are that of the collective of players, teamwork is as much of a skill as anything else.
The whole isn't greater than the sum of its parts. Although I'm not sure how much this matters, my beef was more with you calling it "broken English" Which it isn't as thats how everyone that speaks British English speaks.
And since when has grammar obeyed the rules of logic:-)
Just because we break things down to the level of the _individual_ doesn't mean atom's and molecules get a say. We do the same for team's "Arsenal are amazing, Manchester United are shit", treating it as a collection of individuals (which they are) makes as much sense as treating them as a single entity.
So calling it "broken English" is pretty ridiculous.
Cite one prominent liberal that believes this. I'm European and don't know any politician or theorist that advocates that over here, so its pretty weird if people are saying that in the states.
The EU emission trading scheme is pretty much identical to this and its been in action since 2005. Our economy hasn't exactly collapsed (well, not due to the ETS anyway).
And it won't exactly be putting you on an uneven footing, it will be far less then the standards EU countries are enforcing upon themselves, Canada and Australia are attempting to introducing similar schemes and are at a similar legislative stage to the US. So its more moving in line with the entire Western world, because we have a _responsibilty_ to clean up our own mess, its not fair to create a problem then say its not our responsibility.
Equally those complaining about rising energy costs are missing the point, that's what the "cap" part of cap and trade is supposed to do, the "trade" part alleviates that by allowing permits to be gathered by those who really need to pollute.
Externalities are a known problem with free markets, its in the individuals interests to push as much of their obligations on to everyone else. In this case pollution and the global problems that causes. It's societies role to make sure people don't do that.
It wasn't MS's plan, that was what the Commission wanted for years but MS refused to comply, now they're just doing the legwork to make sure the results will be still be relevant now the case has dragged on for so long.
It was MS's actions that have made the competition commissioner look so unfavourably upon them.
Oh and they will most likely OK this, not everything happens at internet speeds, the machinery of government is slow.
I really don't know how your comment can be considered insightful
1) This is just a proposal so its very hard to criticise right now, however many people have recommended similar plans. 2) The whole point is to remove MS form the equation, let Manufacturers decide what to install as they are not invested in the software business. 3) So your only real hope is to convince HP, Dell or whoever, that your browser creates some added value and therefore they will get more sales, Google, Mozilla and Opera are betting that they can win this argument. You have the right to do the same.
I don't know who modded you informative, the Libertarian party doesn't really exist in the UK. Most people wouldn't even know who they are.
For any Brit truly interested in rolling back some of Labour's worst excesses check out the Liberal* democrats "Freedom Bill" which promises all off the following and which they have promised to enact if they gain power even as part of a coalition.
*For USians the word Liberal means something different over here. And the Lib Dem are the third biggest party.
Scrap ID cards for everyone, including foreign nationals. Ensure that there are no restrictions in the right to trial by jury for serious offences including fraud.

Restore the right to public assembly for more than two people.

Cite? After the Dunblane laws were enacted in the UK the exact opposite happened, deaths involving guns gradually decreased.
They're practically non-existent now- although we do have pretty similar levels of violent crime, fewer people get killed because of it.
Nope, it's pretty much known as dating to the Cold War.
India, China ect were all part of the old world i.e. known about before the America's, extensive trade in spices and textiles took place between the two regions.
Not in 15 years? You underestimate the mobility of multi national corporations, they're already complaining about wage raises in the coastal areas of China - and due to that are moving into less developed interior provinces.
Many companies now talk about a China +1 strategy, they also invest in another south-east Asian country such as Vietnam in order to hedge their bets regarding China's viability
And if you don't see why the US should open itself to foreign markets, then just maybe the fact that the US has been the one bashing free trade down everyone's throat for the last decade is reason enough.
To run away from that now you're seeing the other side of the sword is pure hypocritical bullshit.

Your whole position is illogical.
This isn't true. Nobody waited outside in carpark's (the Daily Mail lies). They simply created a waiting list to get on the waiting list.
The plan got scrapped soon after, although funnily enough the waiting time goals have now been achieved...
You don't actually know what ad hominem means do you? Its more then just an insult.

Well by definition yeah, "That Which Cannot Be Seen" is invisible. It's kinda what the word invisible means.
Says who? Many societies simply aren't as individualistic as the US and permit far greater intrusion from the government - a blanket statement saying-
the government, in general, is not permitted to do so.
doesn't actually apply to most of humanity.

Danish children? I had university lecturers try to get me to say that in Copenhagen.
I lived there for a year and still can't get that right... Strøget, is another pretty difficult one for such a short word.

They have charged Apple over anti-competitive behaviour in the past regarding iTunes.
