Information is not knowledge. :) - Albert Einstein Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere. :) - Albert Einstein Memory is deceptive because it is colored by today's events. :) - Albert Einstein The only source of knowledge is experience. :) - Albert Einstein (I can do it too!!) |

| 1234385 | 2011-09-29 23:36:00 | well done. but you are still condemning a perspective you may or may not have investigated :) I'm sorry if I have offended you by challenging your core belief system, my intention is to simply offer another perspective, I'm not asking you to believe me :) Peace! |

| 1234386 | 2011-09-29 23:49:00 | I'm not offended at all. I have in fact looked at these conspiracy theories and dismissed them, because I cannot believe that secrets can be kept so well that people won't get caught out. Look at The Sun (newspaper, that is - and that's complimenting it!!!), as a recent example. As soon as three people know something that no-one else does, rumours start flying and everything falls apart, sooner or later. It's human nature. I just find conspiracy theorists funny (funny-sad, that is)... |

| 1234387 | 2011-09-29 23:59:00 | Oh that's good, I thought I had accidentally offended you. I'm not surprised that many people associate the word 'conspiracy' with the word 'theory'. Especially after the 'self titled' hollywood movie with Mel Gibson. I've also looked into so called 'conspiracy theories' too, there's a huge amount of bollocks surrounding them and some of the theories are ridiculous and quite hilarious! I've read a few books on ancient history and occult themes, as well as books like the birth of the economic hitman by John Perkins. These are the kind of books that I think have a lot more weight to back up some of the so called 'conspiracy theories' but again a lot of them are pretty ridiculous. Conspiracy is nothing new, Hitler obviously conspired against the Jews and there were people in Germany who had figured it out and left before the sh^t storm lol. If anyone's interested, I found this interesting interview on youtube regarding the NATO activity in Libya, feel free to critique it www.youtube.com |

How is Karzai different? He stopped the Americans from killing off the poppy plants, so he could keep making money out of opium... His brother was known drug lord... His policies towards women have pretty much reverted back to Taliban ways, simply because the Afghans won't support him if he doesn't. And pretty much all muslims are anti-alcohol... And now the Americans are starting to negotiate with the Taliban... In 2015, Afghanistan will be worse off than 2001. Hell, in 10 years of war, the coalition doesn't even control half the country... I don't want to see our soldiers dying for this... But you are right, they do need experience and sadly this is the only way to get it. |

The Moslem countries are not the slightest bit interested in this country, other than its association with USA. We should emulate the Scandinavian countries who get on with there own business, have sound economy's and keep out of the media. Those spy spheres should also be removed. Any act of terrorism on NZ would be pay-back for assisting USA and NATO in their acts of terrorism. What about the illegally detained prisoners in Cuba? | mzee (3324) | ||

You would need to ignore the entire history of mankind to believe that rubbish. Many countries around the world would like to control the pacific. It is through the sacrifices made by our armed forces that we remain free. If you don't protect your borders then sooner or later you lose your country, If you can't protect your borders then you need to build alliances.Part of building alliances is contributing to the bigger effort. |

| 1234393 | 2011-09-30 19:44:00 | To add to Metla's little bit of truth - when I served in an army we trained up to be soldiers and you were itching for a "war". That's why we have a thing called an Army, you know. Not getting killed is actually the challenge, and that will only happen if you kill them before they kill you. I'd rather fight the *rs*h*l*s in Afghanistan than on our soil - which by the way is coming - look at our open spaces, plentiful water, etc.etc. - any of the nations with over a billion citizens would be salivating thinking about us. I also think future wars will be about food, water, nobody will care about your religion. sarel |
