If this is CO2, that is more of a population problem than an oil problem but the people who hate oil jumped on the bandwagon when they saw an opportunity. 40 years ago the problem was the smog producing gasses that came out of tail pipes. We fixed that and most exhaust gas is CO2 and water vapor now ... so CO2 was next. Without cutting way back on all forms of agriculture and eliminating farm animals, you are never going to make a dent in greenhouse gas but that is not a politically viable solution so they go after the low fruit, the evil oil company. |

They are around here, generally just a Menorah but it appears that nobody understand when you light the candles. They put them up with all lights lit. Occasionally they even use multicolored bulbs. Oy vey! As for that jewish fella, jesus, hell, that isn't even his name, if there was such a person. Dunno, I would not be shocked if it was just a generic reference to a number of evangelical Jews who were killed by the Romans. I do understand very little of the new testiment actually dates to the first decade AD. There is still a lot wisdom in the writings, I just don't have any brand loyalty. |

In your mind, well, there's nothing there. I think 610 when Mohammed got his message is before most of the extremes of Christianity occurred. I think your knowledge of "Christianity" is lacking. |

Bombing ISIS in Syria is not going to do much if these guys in France were directed from Libya or any of the other places around the region where they pop up. This is the internet jihad. They could have actually been planning this from a lap top in a Paris cafe. Or at the WTC eh? The WTC attack (9-11) was planned in Germany, we attacked Afghanistan and kept attacking them for 14 years after OBL had left. The first WTC attack was planned and the bomb was built in New Jersey (maybe we should bomb them) They are saying one of the main guys in the Paris raid is a Belgian born, French national. The problem with just "bombing the **** out of them" is that most of the people we kill are not jihadis but the survivors become jihadis with a grudge against the people who killed their friends and relatives. |

Harry only looks back when it is convenient to his point. He doesn't want to talk about all of those New England sailors who were loading black people on ships and bringing then to the new world for money, abusing them below deck and throwing the dead or uncooperative ones over the side. He doesn't even want to talk about the brand of apartheid that is going on in the West bank I don't recall your leading a discussion on the importation of slaves to this country. Were those New Englanders Muslims? :) The so-called Palestinians have had many opportunities for peace. They don't want it. They would say they have not been offered any reasonable terms and the offers are not in good faith. |

This is quickly becoming an internet driven ideology, not a place. Their encryption is good enough that most governments are not going to crack it in anywhere near real time. If they used "coded" as opposed to encrypted messages, it is really hard to do anything no matter what. These days, computers can actually make the "one time pad" style encryption easy to do and that is totally uncrackable. It does require the sender and receiver have the same "key" and the key is as long as the message but it could easily be a jpeg picture or an MP3 file, easily carried or simply downloaded from the net without any suspicion. |

Maybe if they are crazy, will make them normal. ;) |
