wow...
Nuclear War is Justice for arabs who attacked our country on 9-11.If India did strike and then Pakistan strike them dont you think Al Queda and Osama would have been dead? Osama is hiding in the moutains of Afgainstan and Pakistan border.Osama knows Pakistan is protecting him plus there are Al Queda terrorist camps in northern Pakistan. If they had a Nuclear War Exchange there would been 10 million dead arabs already.But now he prevented the Nuclear war which means Osama has a trick up his sleeve to attack us again.And Get this.IRAN isnt interested launching the Nukes.Iran wants to Build nukes so they can sell em to terrorist like Al Queda. And Closing down gitmo bay would lead Terrorist be freed by our liberal politicans when they go to a civilian court instead a military court.And you know how judges are? In the Military court Judges must take orders from the Top commanding officers. In the civilian court Judges dont have to obey orders they can make desisions on their damn free will. See when a Military Judge says not guilty then the President wants to know why from the general. If its not a good reason he can tear off his stripes and medals. And if the general gets the ax he chews out the major,And The Major chews out the colonial and he chews out lieutenant. And then the Judge is in HOT WATER for disobeying a direct order to find him guilty.Thats why we cant trust civilian courts on terrorist cause Judges on civilian courts cant be fired or removed. Go see AKA Vermonts Judge Cashman who gave a Peopldile only 60 days in jail.
where to begin? Well, firstly 14 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were from Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is also one of the most brutally repressive regimes on the planet, debatably worse even than Iraq under Saddam. Why not nuke Saudi?
Why would Bin Laden be killed by nuclear war between India and Pakistan? In war, the tendency is to strike at your enemy's military, industrial and population centres, not wilderness border regions home only to goats and leopards. Also the natives of India and Pakistan are not Arabs.
With regard to Iran, they are very likely seeking nuclear weapons, but remember the election of Ahmedinejad was a direct reaction to American diplomatic bungling and hawkish foreign policy.
Closing Guantanamo bay would go some way towards making America practice what she preaches and abide by her own rules. The prisoners there won't be going before a military court anyway, it will be a military tribunal like the Nuremberg trials. No judge, but a group of high ranking officers who act as a jury. Also a colonel is higher up than a major. What a pity that civilian judges get to use "their damn free will". I guess the president should get to decide all court cases?
All judges in civilian courts in America can be removed for bad conduct, even the supreme court ones. However I don't think "bad conduct" is considered handing down a verdict you personally don't like. Having read about the case in Vermont you mentioned, while I don't agree with the sentence I think the judge acted to try something different that might actually work instead of something that has been proven not to work. You also neglected to add that if the convicted man fails to carry out his part of the sentence upon release, he faces life in prison.
I really hope steveox's views are not held by the majority in America, but fear they are. They seem just the right mix of half-truth, spin and spoon-fed propaganda for someone who watches too much Fox News. I believe it was people like steveox who put GWB back in the White House.
As for Colin Powell, he remains one of the better American statesmen of the last 30 years. He should have been given more medals for diverting India and Pakistan from war. Powell served as the lone voice of sanity in Bush's insane government until he was forced out. He was by no means perfect but was the only one in that government to maintain a shred of integrity.
