snare - what has god got to do with it ?
Obama and Putin press conference, lol, body language, not a happy looking pair of puppies.
Obama's not being received very well by the overall Irish public.
American president 'preaching' peace to Irish children, lol, is that what you cal irony.
Main focus of the G8 conference in N.Ireland, Syria and Tax evasion, later today the Obama's will be meeting Bono, ( the self professed 'Prophet' ) lol,
where are Bono's millions stashed, not in Ireland.
Of course the family tree was formulated, and Obama's great great grandfather was ... Irish.

You have more chance of finding a million dollars in a paper bag than being killed by a terrorist. The syria worry is bullshit by the hawks.

Syria is a different issue when compared to NI. Dont conflate the two, they are different places, different people, different issues and so on. Theres very little connecting the two if any.

True, but for the interest of discussion, and peron's point's of view.
But as the saying's goes, History is a great educator, we should learn from it. History repeats itself.
Are there different 'forms' of terrorism, or is terrorism the same thing, regardless of country of origin etc.

Terrorism is not new, its always existed. If anything its better now than ever.
Go check why the Romans came and destroyed jerusalem. They would tell you its because the jews were terrorists wanting freedom. In fact if you study the history the rebel groups of jews killed hundreds of thousands, whch was completely unacceptable and demanded action from the Romans. Im pretty sure if you were a native of any of the lands the europeans came to, you would consider them "terrrorists" aswell.

If Russia takes the opposing side to the UK and US in this conflict how will it not have a negative impact on the relationship we currently have with Russia?
One thing for certain, Robert Kraft can kiss goodbye any chances of getting his SuperBowl ring back from Putin.

I heard that some nations are asking the U.S. to provide severial billion dollars in humanitarian aid to Syria. The U.S. tax dollars doing to work on foreign soil instead of the U.S. Are Americans really safer after spending several years in these Arab countries? Why such crazy involvement?

I was talking to a building inspector today on a job and he was in the US military in Lebanon in 1961, his son was in the US military in Lebanon in 1981, he was feeling a little Deja Vu with this latest buildup to go into the region again.
