There is, however, incontrovertible proof that explosives were used in WTC 1, 2 & 7. And the highly gullible people/sheeple just keep on ruminating.

What does this even mean? Harper didn't order the attack on Parliament hill?That attack would never have happened if Harper had had the intestinal fortitude to tell the USA to stop its terrorist actions against poor people around the globe. Have you ever heard Harper tell the USA to end its terrorism against Cuba? And yet for the past 23 some years, Canada has voted, with the vast majority of the world, to have the rogue USA end its terrorism. But the coward, Harper, remains silent. This, above, illustrates one of the major problems that has caused so many of these world problems. People just wallow in ignorance, the non pejorative kind, of course. There is no proof that OBL was responsible for 9-11.

"key" is the operative work. You've got that all wrong. He was the usa's creation and the usa's buddy until the USA starting receiving blowback for its perfidious, murderous actions around the world. Blowback that had long been predicted by USA officials. And yet folks pretended to be so shocked. "To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal - Henry Kissinger Back stabbing devils, those Americans, aren't they, jbg? Do you mean the caves that the lying like a sidewalk USA war criminal Donald Rumsfeld put out to all the sheeple thru the lying "journalist", Tim Russert? And some folks actually believe and trust these monumental liars.

What's meaningless about a little graphic that was full of meaning? A graphic that made clear, so that everyone could understand the impact that humans have had. An impact that can be attributed to a tiny segment of humanity, over a very short period of time. [Full disclosure: I haven't checked the math] Does the truth create so much consternation in you that you have to wipe it from your view? And completely setting aside the time issues, comparing glaciers and algae to humans!

'Nuff said, end of thread.

All well and good, Jacee. But the numerous MPs, conservative to boot, who valiantly broke off flagpoles to serve as weapons, then stood guard at the door, weren't traumatized? No one even knew what was going on at that time. Is this the stuff of prime ministers, the guys who are to lead Canada's military?

What do you think your repeated failure to ever address any issues does? Just a post ago, I had noted, "Straight answers most often send you fleeing, jbg. You have little to no interest in straight answers or addressing the facts of so many situations." And what do you immediately do in your next post?

Why would a completely uniformed individual say that?

Don't you find it odd that Mr Tough Guy was hiding in a cubbyhole, jbg? Do you consider this to be churchillian?

Coming to grips with these U.S./CIA activities in broad numbers and figuring out how many people have been killed in the jungles of Laos or the hills of Nicaragua is very difficult. But, adding them up as best we can, we come up with a figure of six million people killed-and this is a minimum figure. Included are: one million killed in the Korean War, two million killed in the Vietnam War, 800,000 killed in Indonesia, one million in Cambodia, 20,000 killed in Angola ... and 22,000 killed in Nicaragua. These people would not have died if U.S. tax dollars had not been spent by the CIA to inflame tensions, finance covert political and military activities and destabilize societies. - John Stockwell

Because Brzenzski is just another floating piece of pond residue who, like most of his compatriots, think it grand to use the innocent poor of the world for their political machinations. He did the same things to the people of Afghanistan. Of course, he was hardly alone. The USA knew that having its USAF saturation bombing Cambodia into oblivion was not good for the 750,000?? million ??? innocents slaughtered but that's just par for the course for the USA. It has never cared about how many it slaughters. Odd behavior doncha think for the savior of the oppressed? Why would the Indonesians take death lists made up by CIA and USA embassy staffers and proceed to slaughter 3/4 of a million people, while the USA folks checked off the dead? Why would Reagan describe those (the Contras) who slashed off women's breasts, peeled skin from people's bodies, murdered children, ... the equivalent of the USA founding fathers? The more you look into the real history of the USA, the more you are astonished by their depravity. "... the CIA had been running thousands of operations over the years... there have been about 3,000 major covert operations and over 10,000 minor operations... all designed to disrupt, destabilize, or modify the activities of other countries... But they are all illegal and they all disrupt the normal functioning, often the democratic functioning, of other societies. They raise serious questions about the moral responsibility of the United States in the international society of nations." - John Stockwell

As has been pointed out to you a number of times, Hal, you have to rely on more than old wives tales. If you did some research you would find that Canada is indeed approaching "the USA the stingiest country in the world" levels. When one considers the trillions upon trillions of dollars of wealth the USA has stolen from poor countries over the last couple of centuries, don't you think it makes sense that they would want to be generous instead of stingy?

Omar: Using this carefully contrived language, as you do, is the equivalent of making excuses for war criminals and terrorists that are every bit the equal of the nazis, in numbers dead and the inherent depravity of the actions themselves.

The truth is not an attack, Michael. It's like science. Of course one brought up on this steady diet of propaganda is going to resent the truth. 2010, 2015 or 1930s, it's all the same relentless mishmash of lies. Look at the glorification of whatever his name is Kyle, the American war criminal. How many millions of Iraqis are dead because of USA war crimes and America is fetishizing about a piece of nothingness who killed women and children. Had the Germans made movies, post WWII, like the propaganda that the USA movie industry continuously pumps out, the USA would have bombed them into oblivion. You don't even notice the propaganda, it's that insidious. Every US politician, every time they open their mouths, it's "god bless the USA"; this great country; or a million other pat phrases/memes. There's no god that would ever consider blessing such a vicious country. As John Pilger said, from the Philippines to Iraq, (1898 to 2010), and if he was doing an update to now it'd be from the Philippines to Ukraine or Syria or Libya or god knows which country is next.

John Pilger on why the Oscars are a con This year's Oscar nominations are a parade of propaganda and stereotypes. BY JOHN PILGER PUBLISHED 11 FEBRUARY, 2010 - 07:09 Why are so many films so bad? This year's Oscar nominations are a parade of propaganda, stereotypes and downright dishonesty. The dominant theme is as old as Hollywood: America's divine right to invade other societies, steal their history and occupy our memory. When will directors and writers behave like artists and not pimps for a world-view devoted to control and destruction? I grew up on the movie myth of the Wild West, which was harmless enough unless you happened to be a Native American. The formula is unchanged. Self-regarding distortions present the nobility of the American colonial aggressor as a cover for massacre, from the Philippines to Iraq. I only fully understood the power of the con when I was sent to Vietnam as a war reporter. The Vietnamese were "gooks" and "Indians", whose industrial murder was preordained in John Wayne movies and left to Hollywood to glamourise or redeem. I use the word murder advisedly, because what Hollywood does brilliantly is suppress the truth about America's assaults. These are not wars, but the export of a gun-addicted, homicidal "culture". And when the notion of psychopaths as heroes wears thin, the bloodbath becomes an "American tragedy" with a soundtrack of pure angst. ... http://www.newstatesman.com/film/2010/02/pilger-iraq-oscar-american-war

Friends don't let friends commit war crimes and terrorist actions. Friends don't join friends in committing war crimes and terrorist actions.

As is always the case, your sources support your notions.

A good point would be that we ought not to rely on fictions, old grandpa/grandma tales, ..., when we make such grandiose statements. It appears that Canada is moving towards that illustrious position that has heretofore been the province of the USA - the stingiest nation on the planet.

Straight answers most often send you fleeing, jbg. You have little to no interest in straight answers or addressing the facts of so many situations. This is so evident that it hardly requires saying, but because you reappear every so often to pretend that you are a party to open discussion, it must be pointed up. Google "maps of israeli stealing of palestinian land". It's not difficult. The first results, the images, will give you exactly what you are asking for. "Palestinian Loss of Land 1946 to 2000" If I photobucketed, I'd do it for you. But this way, you don't have to see it on these pages, which, I don't know, just might make you happy.

I couldn't agree more, Michael. Pertinent information should never be concealed from the true owners of any democratic nation. And of course, we know that it isn't. This is almost certainly a minor abberration.

Speaking of "wimps", you do know, of course, that Steven Harper hid in a Parliament Hill cubbyhole.

Are you in favor of Harper et al's "pump[ing] unlimited resources into enforcement" to turn Canada into jail city USA?
