  i followed the link on the "support freedom" banner, and checked out "guidestar".

  http://www.guidestar.org.

  a search for "watchtower", naturally came up with their "charitable" work, and it's really impressive!.

  Hello Kent and Macislop,
  Great info you have there!

  I've heard that the FBI are looking for new agents as they seem to have trouble searching for terrorists.

  It seems you both have the qualifications, maybe the CIA may give you a job too...

  Infinite Justice?

  'infinite justice'.. that's quite a title for a crusade against terrorism.. i would have thought that only a god has the power to administer infinite justice.. so i kinda wish president george w. bush would make up his mind about being either a texan cowboy sherriff - 'dead or alive'- or a god.. i also hope military action taken against people living in afghanistan - if it comes to that - will be ordered by the united nations and not just the pentagon.

  .

  we are all in this crisis together now.. uncanny

  One more thing. You said ] If one reads what happened to the Palestinians, the Jews do seem to have taken their country away from them. Jews have, though, for a long period, only taken retaliatory measures. They don't start the terrorism.

  Well if lets say in 2050 China invades the USA and brutally oppresses the american people i would expect the americans to create the ALO
  (American Liberation Organization) and attack the Chinese military occupation force and any chinese "settlers" who would kick you into the Arizona or some other desert and keep the best land for themselves. Just as the Native Indians did when they were kicked off their land bu European settlers.

  If Israel were obliged by the United nations securtiy council to get out of Palestine ( otherwise do what was done to Iraq...) the arabs would have no excuse at all to attack them.

  Hello Amazing,

  As US officials say one must not only condemn and bring to justice the terrorists who commit the actual bombing or killing of innocent civilians, but also those states who commit them/help them too.
  Remember that the USA has "friendly" relations with many undemocratic regimesin the middle east which do not hesitate to murder their own people (to me this is state terrorism as sometimes the n° of people that have been eliminates by these goverments is far greater than the 6000 who died on last Tuesday)
  Remember also that today's most hated men in the USA are Saddam Hussein and the now world famous Osama Bin Laden were at one time financially and militarily aided by the US gov. Another example is Augusto Pinochet who eliminated an elected president with the aid of the CIA.

  Hi,

  Bush said he is starting a "crusade" against terrorism, i suppose only the terrorist acts made by muslims...what about the state terrorism of Israel and the USA??

  and now a minutes silence for the people of Iraq

  by GWEEDO in

  you know, as much as i was horrified and felt sick to the gut by the wtc disaster (i must have watched that plane crash into the wtc about fifty times).

  there are other things going on in the world that largely go unreported by comparison but constitute just as much suffering(if not more) as the wtc disaster.. one of the questions i've asked myself is why is the u.s. so hated by certain arab groups.

  maybe this article from off the 'noam chomsky archive'[url] http://www.zmag.org/chomsky/index.cfm[/url] will go a little way to answering that:.

  Quote" There are other things going on in the world that largely go unreported by comparison but constitute just as much suffering(if not more) as the WTC disaster."

  Is it because the victims are not US citizens?

  Why did they change this? is it to hide the WTS?

  as anyone noticed that now when the wts articles mentions one of their older publications they no longer have the footnote saying * published by the watchtower bible and tract society.

  instead they write *published by jehovah's witnesses.. does anyone know if there is a reason for the change ?

  you never know what those old men are up too...... ciao.
