It amazes me that in a country where 80% of its people do not have a passport, they lecture us about our politics. Is this the same BTS that chose to lecture me on the constitutional role of the Queen?
As of matter of interest one my friends is a liberal Jew , and another friend comes from Tehran. My Persian friend is in the UK due to the screw up of Carter, another American who did not listen to the voice of reason, in this case Warren Christopher.

They should do the same poll in America, then we could compare the results.
Personally I think this economic down turn is a direct result of last years rising fuel prices.
When one considers that all commodities are transported globally off of petroleum based products,
the enormous jump in fuel energy costs had a stumbling effect of crippling companies profits.
It had the effect of chopping too much profit from raw goods and companies therefore had no where to go but recede production.
There was a similar economic situation similar to this back in the late 70's in an oil embargo orchestrated by OPEC
resulting in a global recession in the proceeding years .
Interesting enough crude is being sold right now 2/3 cheaper than it was just a few months ago, what happened to that supply
and demand hearsay that the oil companies told us about when oil was trading at $140 a barrel, now oil is coming out all over the place
and they can barely give it away...........corrupt assholes.
My opinion now is that were going to have to endure a recession for at least a couple of years until the economies re-stabilize themselves
and not until that happens are we going to start to climb back up to a healthy economic state globally.
I don't care what Euros have to say.

Homie, I've been saying that for two years....but NOOOOO couldn't be the oil companies.
here is what Abraham h Foxman has to say about America
As offensive as these comments are, we need to understand that the Jewish community is not the prime target of this movement. Indeed, Jews are often singled out for engagement and support based on their interpretation of Biblical revelation and prophecy. Yet, if this “Dominionism,” as its proponents call it, is successful, we may become its major victim. Let me also be very clear about what we are not talking about. First, I do not believe that this is a malignant assault; it is not motivated by animus, and certainly not by anti-Semitism. Our opponents’ beliefs are sincerely held. Yes, some Southern Baptists want to convert us while we are alive, and Mormons want to convert us when we are dead. We may find that strange, even discomforting, but that is their right of belief. My evangelical friends remind me that what we are dealing with is a principle of faith. And they are right. To bear witness, to share, to proselytize, is not a choice for evangelical Christians. It is a fundamental principle of their belief. So when you challenge it, you do it carefully, delicately, respectfully. But we cannot tolerate an attempt to subvert that right of belief and practice by those who say that their job is “to reclaim America for Christ.” Today, talk of God and moral values has become talk of Jesus and Christian values. In Tom Brokaw’s recent TV special, In God They Trust, one can see how deep this runs. Take the Air Force Academy, where ADL has been deeply engaged because of our concerns over inappropriate, even coercive proselytizing. We do not oppose the right of an Air Force cadet or a general to evangelize. They can also do so at home, outside of church, in restaurants, on roads trips, but not in a military academy. |
If this organization is being financially supported by Jews who are fighting against anti-semitism in Europe, wouldn't they deliberately try to seek
and embellish a survey such as that ?
Were talikng about money and a living here now.
Homer only 500 people were interviewed from each country and one-third of that that number said vague stuff like the jews feel more loyal to Israel than to their home country - personally I don't see anything wrong with people thinking that about jewish people or for jewish people to think that way.
Kind of a rather odd survey to be asking people, but again consider who's taking that survey and the results are not too surprising.
The result numbers sound a bit fudged a bit if you know what I mean.
I blame The Juice. *shakes fist at OJ*
