Okay, you watch this video

Not really my problem, more, my solution. Those crazy hippies told me if I got a smaller car I'd use less petrol and save money and they were right. I get 55 miles to the gallon, and spend half what I used to on petrol. Now even if gasoline/petrol wasn't causing global warming, its still a limited resource, at some point the world is going to run out of th.at fuel at an affordable price. But its not going to be due to me driving an SUV

But we are behind this

sorry chaps, I'm a regular http://treehugger.com/ reader, you guys are crazy :)

I disagree with your belief that because people who share their religion owned the land first, they have more right to it than folk who were born there and have lived there for generations.

Ha, those humans know nothing compared to the might of ColdPlaying messageboard people!!! Ha, how we laugh at them

That because people who share their religion owning the land first they have more right to it than folk who were born there.

Well if they've identified me as not a threat, they're so wrong

Lets just disagree on this issue. Before it starts getting silly

Have you any idea how much hassle it is and how much resources it consumes to monitor people's phonecalls? C'mon, lets get back into reality for a moment. minimum wage here is around £5 an hour, which equates to, I guess, about £9000 a year minimum, if its experienced inteligience personell we can triple that £27,000 and additional office overheads lets add another £10,000. So one person working in the top secret phone call monitoring base costs the tax payer between £20,000 to £40,000. And this person is listening in on my phonecalls to my mother (boring as hell) my friends (interesting if you like webcasts). Now lets for a moment postulate on how many terrorists there are in the UK, I reckon there's ten thousand, being optimistic, so out of a population of 60 million. Thats about 0.0016% of the population. In order to find one terrorist, they'd need to track 6000 people at random. This is still hyperthetical. But I doubt your one person in the phonecall monitoring base could really listen in on 6000 people at once. I reckon given the number of people that one person can really differentiate, that one phonecall monitorer can track 100. So it would take 60 people who's full time job was to listen in on phonecalls, of which only one of them is going to come up with anything like a terrorist. Now this is going to be a hellishly boring job so there'll be a high staff turnover, and every member of staff at our listening station is going to have to be security vetted, which takes time and money. How the hell can these people justify their budget? And how can I get away with admitting in a public forum that I have data on bomb making equipment like I did in another thread, and have actively participated in making explosives. And these secret phone tap listning people haven't arrested me. In fact, if I were a terrorist, I would so not even use my telephone for anything other than talkingt o my mum, its too obvious. Therefore these phonelistening people we discussed earlier, they're not even going to find me.

It is so not your government's job to do all it can to stop sex crimes. There are other important things your government ought to be doing. And it shouldn't do all it can to stop sex crimes, that would be crazy, that would be absolutely insane. Does your country have a huge sex crime problem? Compared to other problems it faces? Admittedly, sex crimes are a bigger problem than terrorism, thats easy enough to see. But drink driving, death on the roads airplane safety, lightning, bears, violent crime, corporate crime, copyright theft, Aids, foreign policy, global warming and obesity. These are other issues that the government should be addressing before it builds a giant security wall along its southern border.

But should they be evicted and thrown out of their homes cos a bunch of American/French/British/Arab religious nuts claim that they owned the land first, a thousand/two hundred/forty years ago?

Every night this week on the Last Night From Glasgow webcasts, the one and only Tom Snowball tonight By The Sea "song that has classic written through it like lettering in rock"

Its a bit of a tragedy

Do you mean you actually have a right to try and stop sex crimes? but you refuse to try to stop the majority of sex crimes committed by American citizens? You're coming across as all confused. I think individually you have a duty not to commit "sex crimes" yourself. But you don't have a right to stop other people, that's not your right, its not even your duty. This is another example of why I think you have fascist tendencies.

What about people who were born there? Don't they count?

I disagree, I think its only a subtle difference, to do with how the laws are interpretted and carried out.

Maldini, after the Second World war Berlin, the capital of German was occupied by several of the Allied powers, America, USSR and the UK, they each control a portion of the city, great walls were erected between west Germany's portion of Berlin and East Germany's portion of Berlin. It took about fifty years for the German people of both East and West Germany to tell their leaders to stop dicking about, demolish the walls and have a united country. I'm not suggesting that Israel is a divided state, or maybe it is, divided by the Palestinians. But would a Jerusalem, as the largest city in Israel actually function if it was not part of Israel. Anwar El-Sadat's speech is from a past era, I think the world has changed, and the world has learnt lessons since then. I'm not suggesting its wrong, but is there anything in it that could be improved? Any of his suggestions. Israel pulling out of the Occupied territories thirty years ago is a different matter to pulling out now, cos now there are thirty year olds people there with families who've lived there all their lives, can they be held accountable for the crimes of their father's? Can they be held accountable for politicians from the past they never voted for.

Well, our fount of all knowledge wikipedia says:- Fascism is a radical totalitarian political philosophy that combines elements of corporatism, authoritarianism, extreme nationalism, militarism, anti-anarchism and anti-liberalism. So, you telling me to "... so shut the fuck up." is a rather neat example of your own totalitarian, authoritarian and anti-liberalism. Just cos you're not a fully paid up member of the American Fascist Association doesn't mean you don't have fascist tendencies.

Well, basically it shows a "Magen David" or Shield of David between two stripes. The Shield is one of your traditional Jewish symbols. The lines represent the Jewish Prayer Shawl. The colour blue is chosen to represent the sea, the sky and God. Its hardly the most inclusive and warm n cuddly of flags like the UK's Union Flag, which represents the union of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, of the USA flag which represents the union of loads of different states.

You could put your entire population in prison, which would neatly solve the issue. Can you find a link to somewhere that has total sex crimes committed by each ethnic group. I mean do illegal immigrants commit more sex crimes than American citizen. In fact how many sex crimes are committed each year in total anyway And what do you mean by sex crime? Its quite a broad term. Does sodomy count as a sex crime? and underage sex is that a sex crime?

9 - nice use of colour

was she a terrorist too?

How can a city be Jewish? I mean, how can a city have a religion? Like sure some of the citizens can have a religion, but that would change with the times, and I guess if the majority of the citzens share the same religion then that could have some bearing. But really, c'mon, does that mean that all other religions have to vacate the city boundaries? I appreciate that a Church, as a building, can have a religion. But like, cities have lots of different churchs for lots of different religions, and well, Jerusalem has like loads of religions. Jerusalem is a Muslem city and a Christian city too, I'll accept that there aren't many Pastafarians there, but that count for much

7 - not very imaginative
