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?

i thought those were for people who enjoyed being thwacked with carpet beaters

ROFL Ruth. Now that would be something. I'll contribute to the cost if you promise to take it around to him and make sure it works properly.

would be my pleasure,;-)

this should confirm if im squelched or not by Freddie boy,;-)

Fred goes to the doctors,he asks the doctor have you ever laughed at a patient?

"in over 20 years i havnt because i try to remain professional and open minded "said the doctor.
With that Fred dropped his trousers revealing the tiniest penis the doctor had ever seen.
it wasnt any bigger than a AAA battery,
The doc burst into uncontrolable hysteria.
"im sorry ,i really am ,i dont know what came over me ,i promise it wont happen again said the doctor,Now what seems to be the problem Fred?"
"Its swollen " replied Fred ;-)

edit - referring to freds latest diversionary post 920.

Iran want a better relationship with US. Haha, Azabinabadlad & cronies have woken up to the fact that Obama isnt an oil man (at least I dont think so) and he will now turn out clean technologies to power the world within one or two terms. Iran (indeed the middle east) with no oil wealth = major civil strife = all out warfare across the region.

Banal

forget the "b"

Let me know how it is banal about it Fred. What do you think will happen when oil money stops flowing into the M.E. Obama seems to be a fresh thinker. I know, we can pick up the aid tab.

At least I know I havent been squelched.

Raw, Do some broader reading. Might widen your perspectivel

Fred: You do love instructing people on their education, don't you?

How about you broaden yours by watching the video in post 821?

MM

raw .... even i think your thinking is unthinking ..... but someone seems not to know the meaning of banal

That's what comes of being institutionalised, MM.

Fred suggested that MM upset people. I suppose it may be similar to the comment made by Churchill about Charles de Gaulle.

He said that de Gaulle was a perfect gentleman and never upset anyone by accident!

MM upset people?! lol
Reality - divorced from
Projection of own attributes onto others.
Classic symptoms........change of medication required.

For your info fred.

banal - adjective - tediously unoriginal or ordinary. Which bit don't i understand?

But the story has changed - A new man at the top who is not an oil man. He doesn't benefit like his predecessors and will not be held to ransom by oil. I see changes in relationship between Iran and US but not the way you see them.

'Raw, Do some broader reading. Might widen your perspectivel' I have to say that coming from you, the most blinkered man I have ever come across, is an absolute classic statement worthy of the history books. What reading do you suggest?

'even i think your thinking is unthinking' have you done any thinking about that statement because you do come out with some rubbish. Don't insult my intelligence.

Fred - you're special!

Raw, In the 60s,70s,80s, a frequently public "myth" was continually being trotted out that Israel was the beginning of the world and its Armageddon.

The repetition of similar is boring. Read a little recent history.

Check meaning of banal.

Fred:

What on Earth are you talking about? That post makes no sense whatsoever.

Have you overdone the medication?

Yours, concerned,

MM

Myth before my time MM.

I wasn't actually referring to armageddon, i was referring to the tribal instincts that will come to a head when the governments can no longer support their economies. I believe they are squealing at low oil prices now. When the world no longer uses so much oil the trouble will start. A few years off yet though.

Don't see my thinking as the original armageddon myth therefore it is different to what has been said before and cannot be banal.

edit - israel was the beginning of the world only if you believe in creationism but lets not go there.

glad i'm on the right side of this dow fall :)

The weekend chat fred will drop down the order, so here, for posterity, Special Fred.

Gausie;-)))))
