Will this increase or decrease the likelihood of terrorist actions in America, Europe and the rest of the world?

If you were a member of a family murdered in this conflict, would you be seeking revenge?

Should Tzipi Livni and Ehud Olmert, be tried for war crimes if or when this conflict comes to an end?

What will the price of oil be in 4 weeks time?

Gausie - a good number of my relatives were shot in poland or died in the camps, and a couple of them also survived the camps ..... i also went to Belsen last year, and let's just say that was "interesting", though i am very glad that i went.


anyway, enough of this serious emotional stuff ..... let me know when you need another fish recipe

My relatives suffer from guilt by omission

They were told what was happening but couldnt believe it

They stayed in the comfort of their own home on this side of the channel
and did nothing until it was virtually too late

Gausie; Ian was decisive, he edited and removed two posts by Fahel and removed an offensive swear word by you. If Ian had been indecisive he would have left all posts unedited. Ian took the trouble of informing me of his actions which I whole heartedly accepted and agreed on.

We do not sit here as judge and jury. We sit here as moderators and tread a fine line between decency and freedom of speech.

As an 'old timer' on the BB's you should know by now not to get wound up by 'idiots' !!!

Well I have my own family history but didn't blink a eyelid over Fahel's "joke." Actually surprised it has been edited. I am sure there has been a lot worse posted on here dressed up as serious comment.

better - the devil has all the best lines

Cynic.

"who loudly vent their rabid prejudices and who, most unfortunately, drag a goodly number of the great unwashed with them"

Can you refer me to where I can read or vent my "rabid prejudices".

At the moment, I think you are advertising your own against any view at difference with your own.

did i point a finger?
i think not, but if the cap fits, wear it

People who embolden their text are trying to draw attention to themselves because.....errr.......no-one takes any notice of them.

Of course most members of the discredited Labour government are bewildered and asking what they did wrong.........as did many of the defendants at Nuremburg....

Now fred/nick, I am not calling you a dog because a dog is man's best friend and you are certainly not that to anyone, but, does a rabid dog know it's rabid?

bad boy itlb - rotfl!

Cynic, I thought that is what you were insinuating.

If I am wrong, fine, otherwise re-read my posting and inform me.

Like you, many of my wife's extended family were killed during the 40s.

But the crimes committed against humanity were then, and we should have learnt not repeat the actions against other groups of "individuals".

Have a nice day.

Thank you, cynic, sir :)

Someone has started a new recipe thread, folks.
Bit of a long winded title,
"This is a new Thread for those interested in the Vagaries of the Arab Israeli Culinary Tradition and its Potential for People to come Together" ,
but it's the gastronomy that matters.

you ain't heard how i speak to Beloved, let alone about my late father-in-law!

MN,

I have been an almost life long atheist, but never stood against God.

Shall I start a thread on religion.

Could be very interesting.

Always interested how "beliefs" influence "actions".

personally, i find it more interesting to watch how bullshit baffles brains, though age and guile tend to win every time

I have an idea for a new moderators censure for certain posters. Change the poster's features so that his post are only visible to himself. He will then think he is being ignored!

"but never stood against God"

Which election was that?

Multiple threads have been created and for the sake of other members of the Bb I have removed them. If Fred1new wants to create more on the same subject feel free to do so and am happy to remove his ability to post anymore on the BBs.

The Bbs were designed to be about Stocks and shares not political debate, dont push your luck !!
