  i changed my topic to this:.

  why does france always go against britain and us policies?

  Celia; I, myself, have often wondered at the same question.

  Maybe it's not "moral" enough for our current government.

  WHAT SHUD HAPPEN TO THE PILOTS..........

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what do you think should happen to the two american pilots who fired on and killed the 4 canadians over in afganistan last year in the friendly fire incident?

  this is a hard one.

  as a canadian, i fully support the usa and obviously this disaster was not intentional and i'm sure the pilots must feel awful about it.

  Preston; I don't think that "no one" here cares. Our government might not have shown "they" care . I for one care about any casualties. It is unfortunate, but very likely in the future MANY will be harmed friend, foe, combatants, non-combatants.......NO ONE WINS.......

  one quick look at the trouble we face with north korea actually strengthens the case for military action in iraq.

  they are even more notorious than iraq about breaking deals.

  Yeru; not to incite you, but could you tell me what 3 wars you were involved in??

  It is my understanding that Haliburton is an oil service company, not a producer. Has this changed?

  Mega; Thanks, I'll look for it.

  I am particularlly interested in Viet Nam era Army aviation. My father was a rotary wing flight instructor . He taught many of the fliers for the conflict. I met many of them and several didn't come back alive. I can also remember meeting many Mid east exchange pilots being trained at US Army bases.

  Hello all;

  Since there has been much discussion about an impending war, I thought I would mention this.

  "The Soldiers's story" by Ron Steinman. I am listening to the audio book version. It is a narrative of thoughts from combatants involved in the Viet Nam conflict. It is not political or really historic[facts figures, deaths, etc.] in content. It just gives the feeling and thoughts of the combat soldiers during their tour and daily lives. It gives a very accurate portrayal of the personal expierences of this time. Anyone wishing to know more or to understand the feelings of an active combatant could learn from this.

  The copy I am listening to is from my public library. It could be available from some rental places[video store]. It can be purchased or rented online from http://booksontape.com

  It is book #5558.

  Watchtower publications and Copyright Law

  by Jourles in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the past, i have told my friends that if i were not in the industry in which i am employed today, i would have been an attorney.

  to me, law has always been an intriguing area to be involved in.

  not only does researching information that pertains to personal matters teach you the basics on how to conduct yourself in court and the due process of what is involved, you also learn many various laws that may have been totally foreign to you beforehand.. many times on this site and on other personal websites across the globe, religious entities, or publishing corporations, have been a deciding factor in what is and what is not posted, copied, and presented.
