The point is that they *are* human beings and the only person you
demean with this discourse is yourself. Just as a certain central
European nation before, you won't make any friends by threatening to
sterilize entire populations on the flimsy grounds that YOU
personally do not like how they live.

Well, as I've read posted by another, it doesn't matter where they
live, they should be returned to the Middle East. So, darned if you
do and darned if you don't, if you're swarthy skinned, eh?. What
about non-swarthy European Muslims? What about Black Muslims?

> Even prisoners here in the US lose all of their civil rights.


And where does this fit in? Are you suggesting that Muslims outside
the Middle East are prisoners without civil rights? There are
overarching documents that are more fundamental that US civil rights,
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights for one, which the US
agreed to in 1948 which states in its first articles:

Article 1.

All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards
one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

Article 2.

Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth
in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race,
colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national
or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no
distinction shall be made on the basis of the political,
jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to
which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-
governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty.

Article 3.

Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.

[...]

Article 30

Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for
any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to
perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and
freedoms set forth herein.

That cuts both ways. This means you can't use violence by others as
a justification for violence by yourself and those you elect? By the
way, the Universal Declaration was drafted by a Canadian.

And the way you're going about it, you're going to make damned sure
it doesn't happen, whether that's what you want to achieve or not.

> I don't feel good about my viewpoint, but I'm a realist.


How is elaborating a complex plan to eliminate millions of people
being a realist? If you were a realist, you would face the fact that
the problems stem from abuse by western powers and their toadies
(including the House of Saud and Saddam Husayn) and develop plans to
correct it, redressing the wrongs that have been done and restoring
Islam to dignity. It would be better, a realist would say, to have
them as friends than enemies.

That's the American way! We grow the artichokes, but all
the best ones go to the East Coast where they sell 'em
cheap. We buy the "leftovers" (smaller and blemished) and
are charged the same or more than "they" pay for our
beauties.

Gas is the same way. I can literally see an oil refinery
(if I'm in the right part of town), but pay one of the
highest gas prices in the nation. Why? Because they say we
can "afford it".

(Gregory=A0Morrow)Wrote:
...or does anyone else think that groceries have gotten more expensive
in the last year or so? Beef, chicken, and dairy products have for
various reasons spiked up in price, but most everything seems to have
gone up at least a little....
The only real exception I've noticed is orange juice - there has been a
bumper crop of oranges and because of the Atikins mania fewer are
drinking it, so OJ is a relative bargain these days....
I hew to a fairly strict grocery budget, use coupons, cook a lot from
scratch, and tend to buy stuff only when it's on sale...I'm not the type
to get a hundred bucks from the ATM and go grocery shopping just because
it's a fun thing to do. I always make a list and stick to it.
Anyone else notice this or is it just me?
--
Best
Greg ---------------------------------------------------------------
response: Yes, I have seen the price jump in grocery stores especially
on diary products.
But if you listen to your local news they have talking about this
subject since early summer.
I have also noticed at the farmer markets here in the Detroit metro the
quality of the produce is the worst I have seen in years.
Strawberries are going bad on me after just two days, fresh corn on the
cob are not as sweet either.
Fresh watermelons just picked look like treats for the pigs. And lettuce
heads are a joke.

Yeah, thanks for pointing that out so I didn't have to, Bob. I love good
beer, but for the quantity that I drink, I can't justify the cost, so I
drink the cheap stuff. :~ (

I agree - but now that you've mentioned it... Hmmmm.
Kili what you call Coors? To me it's as domestic as Bud.

FYI: On the West COAST, Coors isn't considered "the good
stuff".

It *is* a domestic. My point being, GOOD beer; Sam Adams, Sierra Nevada,
etc. - is basically $10 a 6-pack. If you drink in large quantities (which I
tend to do) you may want to go mass-produced domestic because it's
considerably cheaper, but still expensive as things go. That's all I was
saying.
