International law of warfare does not require that the USA don't you understand that the USA gives sh*t on international law and treaties? or any other nation wait until they have been attacked when the "attacker" has made it clear that they will attack. Furthermore, the USA has treaties with Israel and other nations that require that we defend those nations, see NATO etc. well, a preemptive strike then. #m -- "We're out of toilet paper sir!" http://www.webcrunchers.com/crunch/Play/history/stories/toilet.html |

second nuke IRAN so that
the uncertainty about the future supply will go away. Well, that was more or less the theory about the invasion of Iraq, which is still pumping less than it did before the invasion. In other words, the war exacerbted the shortage instead of allieviating it. Although I'm not in favor of nuking Iran, I must point out that you're judging the results in Iraq with typical American impatience. The outcome of this war won't be known for decades. I believe history will look favorably on the decision to intervene when we did -- as it will when we are forced to do something in Iran. Our attempts to nail democracy onto the feet of natives who clearly are barely out of the stone age may be looked upon less favorably, however. In retrospect, we probably should have done things the British way. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Yes, just like how our good friends, the European allies, helped us "disarm"
Iraq with the Oil for Fools scandal. It's no wonder why we put such so faith in world diplomacy acting against renegade nations. You need to understand that your instransigence, corruption and greed deprives us of effective diplomacy. And then, what's left? Military action and European whining. Well, never mind. Your politicians have their million/billions. If you think it is "our" world (and I agree with you, here), then it's time to start acting like it. you first have to find a solution how you then can bring out the oil after you have contaminated a good part of OUR world (note: it is not _yours_ alone). |

If you think it is "our" world (and I agree with you, here), then it's time
to start acting like it. Well said. For three generations, since at least World War I, Europeans have been trained to know that all they have to do is drag their feet and whine about "doing the right thing" until *(Fill in the blank international crisis)* grows untenable -- at which point everyone knows the U.S. will be forced to step in and do the dirty work. I would have thought that the terrorist attacks in Madrid and London might have shocked the peoples of Europe into awareness, but this did not happen. Only when Europe outgrows this infantile stage, and truly engages in the diplomatic world, will the free world be able to effectively counter Islamo-Fascism. Until then, I'm afraid we're on our own. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

We have to endure the visit of the president of the US in our capitol. It costs us millions to host him and closes businesses and restricts the rights of _our_ citizens. We even have to seal duct covers just like the Germans had to do during his last visit. With such friends you don't need enemies. effectively counter Islamo-Fascism. Until then, I'm afraid we're on our own. You are on your own, but you (the US) is trying to shove everyone your opinion and viewpoint up his ass. Just give it a try and leave everybody alone with their problems. Maybe you're right and we have to come back whining and asking for your help. Then you can decide and demand whatever you want for your help. You never gave it a try. #m -- "We're out of toilet paper sir!" http://www.webcrunchers.com/crunch/Play/history/stories/toilet.html |

Iran invaded and held sovereign American territory. What more does a
country need to justify war? " the USA has nothing to do there. No _actual_ threat, no declaration of war from Iran, no attack from Iran, nothing - according to international law that would justify an invasion (by US troops). Ah well .. wait a minute .. you never gave sh*t on international law. |

They buy it from the refiner. The additives are mandated in the southern three counties of New Hampshire (where the population is, and proximity to Massachusetts). The rest of the state pumps real gasoline and presumably will continue to do so. The same is true of Maine. Gasahol has turned up in Campton NH in the last week. Prolly to cut the number of types of fuel to be delivered. It is state law, not federal, that makes these rules. I believe there is a Northeast compact between New York and the New England states on the matter. Unsure what it takes to lift it, but note that the New Hampshire legislature meets only one year out of two ... They are meeting at the moment, and generating more bad laws. -ash Cthulhu in 2005!
