OK...but we disagree on this one. DD...Havana Nights!
In some cultures, cats (and other animals) are believed to have the ability to 'forecast' the future.
Hate to derail the thread, but why Deckard? What good does it do now other than waste hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars and tear the...
Neo-Nazis are gaining a foothold in some parts of Germany today. So while the Germans have done much over the decades, it doesn't mean that...
Sadly, your opinion is without much merit. Historically speaking, Russians are some of the most industrious peoples in the world. To call them...
Partly, yes, but I also think that you're seriously underestimating just how much some Russians -- especially the younger generations -- admire...
The only thing that's funny (or sad) is your deep-seeded bigotry that leads you to believe that everyone who disagrees with your views is an...
As I've said, I wasn't necessarily addressing the article, just making a general distinction that I thought was worth making. SJC? No...he's...

"Perceived" difference? So the target is irrelevant, it's the act in and of itself that is the issue at heart of suicide bombing...that's what...
I would argue that it's not the person of Stalin they're hearkening back to, but the 'prestige' of the Soviet Union that he left behind. It's...
Why? Are you taking 'morals' into consideration? Not always the case, no, that isn't true. In many instances the participants understood...
Twisted, yes. What about dying for 'country' or some other ideal? How about to destroy a 'bigger evil'? Do you even believe in "good and...
No, legally the university should be fine as long as they produce the evidence they need to prove their case. I just have a problem with the way...
