Does everyone remember that Iraq invaded Iran in 1980 and the Iranians fought back for eight years even though Iraq was given weapons by both the USA and the Soviet Union? In order to repel the invaders, Iran launched human wave suicide attacks and they had a surplus of volunteers for those suicide units.

Does everyone acknowledge that Iran controls the Eastern side of the Strait of Hormuz and has positioned ground to ship missiles in bunkers so deep and well protected that military analysts doubt that even tactical nuclear weapons would not destroy them. Hormuz is only seven miles wide, 40% of the world’s oil production passes through it, and it could be chocked off by sinking a few supertankers at key turning points in the shipping channel.

Finally, do we all recognize that Iraqi Shia are Arabs and Iranian Shia are Persians and have never worked together successfully for at least the past 3,000 years?

Now who’s going to permit this Shock&Awe II? Is there anyone in the world community who would support us?

Your referring to them recategorizing people who died in car bomb explosions as “not murdered”, right? or something else?

These people love to tinker with definitions…next thing you know, they will start calling families blown up by bombs as “separated”

It doesn’t matter if they are true or not. As long as its change reflects his narrow and unfounded opinion.

3 of 18 benchmarks. How many lives during this time. O’Hanlon was present at how many of the funerals? It is not even for democracy and or freedom any more. Although it is my “opinion” that it was never for Iraqi freedom or democracy. Those are nice sounding advertisements for the American people to buy…………

brilliant retort hermaphdrodite….. “who knows” is your way of saying “no”….when you dont want to admit it. if someone presents facts, the only way to attack their assertions is to either a) attack their credibility by mentioning episodes of their past dishonesty (”we know where the weapons are”) or attack the facts as they currently present them: (i.e. “murders are only down because you stopped including people who die in car bombs in the category of “murdered”‘)

You’ve done neither. Everyone is biased to some degree about everything.
If you were really a lawyer you’d know that claiming “bias” alone without any evidene to support your claims, isnt going to win you many cases…

Sure. I’m sure you’ve used (or at least seen someone else use) a cell phone in a parked aircraft, even with the door closed, which proves that an aircraft isn’t a Faraday cage. Since the range of cellular phones is well in excess of six miles (i.e., typical cruising altitude) there’s no significant range issue. A cellular phone in a moving aircraft (at 200 MPH or even 500 MPH) may be in communication with a large number of cellular sites at once, which puts an undesirable load on the network infrastructure and may result in lots of handoffs (and a higher incidence of dropped calls), but in general it works fine. Sorry.

Why cant the white house have a say in what the reports says?

How about just let the facts speak for themselves? I know, that’s a foreign concept to your Republican mind…

“You might as well dismiss every statement most of the Framersof our Consitution made. Most of them were liberals as well.

The framers were “Classical Liberals” which contemporary Liberals are NOT. Contemporary Liberals seek to expand government – - Classical Liberals despised the intrusion of the Kings government in their lives….Nice try….you’re no Classical Liberal. (You should know that progressives and socialist co-opted the term “liberal” hoping to associate their name with the framers. for more widespread acceptance.)

“Again, has Moyers ever been caught in a lie of any kind?”

Who knows? He has an agenda and he promotes that agenda by distorting the opposition.

Gravity.

Toodles, tools…

Hey, MA…just one question:

How do you account for the quantities of molten steel found in the basements of the Twin Towers and WTC 7 weeks after the collapses?

There was no jet fuel in Building 7.

Everyone should call their own PBS station and ask them to re-show Bill Moyers’ “Buying the War.”
