Perhaps a sign that the press sees the end coming? Or just more right-bashing?
What does that mean, Laz?
That's like saying "GALLIUM ARSENIDE TECHNOLOGY NOW!" The technology exists, there's no magic, but it only makes economic sense in certain applications.
Why don't you run out and make it economically make sense? Why not get some pals together in your garage and start building some? Go to the welding supply, get some hydrogen. Or distill some fuel. But then the neighbors will probably be suspicious of you and turn you in, and then you'll need to get the permits, and more funding to pay the fees and lobbyists fro more federal funding....
This also brings up one of Bush's statements after 9-11, that we would turn these ME groups against each other. It's about time we got those terrorists and their supporters looking after their own flesh, not looking to take a pound of ours.
Call me when they say something of substance. This is yet more rhetoric. They wouldn't know what or where the American Heartland is if you smacked him upside the head with an ear of corn.

Good question. I wondered if the use of the term "conservatives" was the actual word used, or if it was just how it was translated to English by some leftist Euro press type. It seems the more accurately descriptive term is "fundamentalists." I highly doubt that the party described as "conservatives" is anything remotely like the people who would label themselves "conservatives" in the U.S. I agree, probably more right bashing.
So true ... and the image of that is giving me a good laugh this morning. Thanks.
Eliminate the money, and you will go a along way towards limiting terrorist.
Fuel cells may be part of the answer. Opening up oil fields (closed down by enviromentalist) may also be part of the answer. Finding a replacement for oil, may be the best answer (it would not be a first time that an energy source has changed).
Those are long term solutions, the short term may just be to go back in and take the oil fields, and pay the countries a fair price for the oil, but spend the money on schools, roads and other public works, but none for their military.
We can not stop them from hating us, but we can take away their source of financing.
In this case, not exactly. It took a lot of combined effort, over many years, from the militant mullahs and the Left together to depose Reza Shah, pressing him so hard that his crackdowns turned what had been a rather open regime into repression, secret police (Savak) and all. Followed by the power play which Khomeini's mullahs won, to the Left's surprise.
But as has been noted many times, the majority of the country has no memory of the Shah, only of the mullahcracy and they're chafing under that. I see these rants and raves as a sign that the mullahs' power is slipping away, they know it, and they are helpless to prevent it.
Mr. Rafsanjani fashions himself quite the Dr. Evil, doesn't he?
Maybe you can sue your high school career counselor for not bringing that career to your attention.You're probably too good for that kind of work-at least I hope so.
Seems like "cream" isn't the only thing that floats to the top , like I was taught in Sunday School.
Does that make Rev. Farakhan, "Mini-me" ?
