| 603363 | 2007-10-20 16:44:00 | It's Saturday morning here . . (that's why I have so many comments . . I'm home) . . . but OIL prices on Friday evening (last night) may cause a quake in the US Stock market and that it may just be a lot worse on Monday when it re-opens . Projections were for oil in the barrel . . crude . . . were likely to hit $100 . 00US/barrel by Christmas or New Year . Oops . . . it looks like it went over that amount on Wall Street just at closing . Given that it may be a fluke or bad timing or even misplaced reporting (read: a lie or a non-sustainable spike), the price of oil will most likely be over $150 . 00US a barrel by the same Christmas deadline projection . Thoughts ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > ? Our US gas jumped up to $3 . 13US/gallon, which although high is not a record which was hit last year when it got to $3 . 40+USD . IF oil stays where it is, we expect to see $6 . 00US/gallon gas prices in the next three weeks, and if the muted and conservative projections are even close to correct, it'll be over $10 . 00US/gallon by Christmas . The Turk invasion is supposed to be the cause of all this . . I donnow yet . . . . but Russian Premier Putin has told Bush to "butt out" of the Iranian Nuclear Weapons Project and that there might be (winky-wink) repercussions from Russia if the US doesn't accept or heed the warning . Bush countered that he's not afraid of an atomic WW-III if necessary to keep a lid on Iran's nuc program . He says that Iran wants to and is planning to destroy Israel, and that the US is committed by treaty and promises to defend Israel to the/our death . He doesn't care . . he's a rapturist(#) who has the same idea of going to heaven as the Muslim suicide bombers . . . . although he won't get all the free virgins . Remember this: that a US president . . IF in office at the time of a declared war . . and IF the voting deadline in November(*) is passed while in that war . . . the seated president has four more years in office . Korea and VietNam didn't count . . they were "police actions" and not a declared war . Watch out for next September or October . There's a lot of perverted reasoning, a surreal amount of stupidity and possibly suicidal intentions here . It may all hit the fan . Ever read: "On The Beach" by Nevil Shute ( . wikipedia . org/wiki/On_the_Beach_%28novel%29" target="_blank">en . wikipedia . org)? Ever hear: "I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-To-Die-Rag" by Country Joe & The Fish? ( . wikipedia . org/wiki/The_%22Fish%22_Cheer_/_I-Feel-Like-I%27m-Fixin%27-To-Die_Rag" target="_blank">en . wikipedia . org) . . and here: . youtube . com/watch?v=s5btZWbViPA" target="_blank">www . youtube . com . . . . . . . . . . and according to the "Rapturists" . . . . . . . of which Bush and almost all of his cabinet are zealots for and attest to: (#) this tribulation will be cut short by the coming of Christ to deliver the righteous by means of rapture, which will occur after the sixth seal is opened and the Sun is darkened and the moon is turned to blood . However, by this point many Christians will have been slaughtered as martyrs by the Antichrist . . . . and therefore one way or another . . . Bush and cronies believe they won't even be here! (*) Federal (or National) Elections always occur on the Tuesday following the first Monday of November of every even numbered year (the Tuesday between November 2 and November 8, inclusively) . |

| 603364 | 2007-10-20 18:07:00 | Maybe someone should knock off Bush now Re: petrol prices, here in NZ its somewhere around $1.60 a litre. I remarked to my g/f that by March next year, I'm thinking we will be paying over $1.75 (possibly ~$2.00 a litre) Also noted, when the $NZ peaked at around 90c US, petrol never came down :stare: |

| 603366 | 2007-10-20 19:06:00 | $NZ 1.66 / L, or (roughly one of your quarts !) 96 Octane for careful shoppers. It is almost half the price of some bottled water which is obviously too high for the poor motorists. (This is supermarket bottled water, not the socially desirable brands which can be quite expensive.) :lol: |

| 603368 | 2007-10-21 00:04:00 | I have heard that there are countries that are pushing for a Hague (The Netherlands) investigation. On July 1, 2002, the International Criminal Court, a treaty-based court located in The Hague, came into being for the prosecution of war crimes committed on or after that date. However, several nations, most notably the United States, China, and Israel, have criticized the court, refused to participate in it or permit the court to have jurisdiction over their citizens. Note, however, that a citizen of one of the 'objector nations' could still find himself before the Court if he were accused of committing war crimes in a country that was a state party, regardless of the fact that their country of origin was not a signatory. Some suggest that because innocent civilians have died as a result of the Iraqi situation, GB might be indicted or indictable. |

That's US prices of $3 . 06/gallon . . . . . . . . . . . Is that right? $38 . 18? Wow! :blush: 23L DOES equal 6 gallons . . . . . |

| 603371 | 2007-10-21 01:05:00 | The israelis especially if the international court started investigating the holocaust against the Palestinians. BS! Holocaust my ass. After all the Jews have had done to them and the fact that its the PALESTINIANS bombing everyday, why not send them to court and/or nuke them? That would give you your holocaust then wouldn't it? |

I thought that the USA never ratified the International Court of Justice etc? In which case, you couldn't really prosecute him and further more, which agency would "apprehend" him? |
