Keeping this thread alive for you, Snorri (I sincerely want to read your response).

Yes, and Israel is intent upon taking all of Palestine, particularly all of Jerusalem and pretty universally declares that they don't really have to consider Palestiniens -- their culture, etc, because there is no such thing as a "Palestinien", they are "just Arabs" pretty much put up to declaring ...

All this shit should've never happened in the first place. I don't care about who started what, I am more concerned about who has the power to stop this and in this case Israel can stop it but they don't. What they're doing is not conductive to peace.

I agree. I do not remember the name of the Israeli spy, but the U.S. government has been holding him for quite some time now. It used to be a big deal, but people have forgotten about him, and he is probably stuck in prison. The chances of this spy ever returning to Israel are extremely slim.

Man, from my work experience and what Ive seen, i will say this with a pretty high accuracy percentage- Bin Laden does NOT move around.
I fully agree. Each time he moves, he would need a network. A travel agent, a destination,.. supplies. If even one person knows where he is, that's too many ...

I cannot copy and paste it, but the map is on the first link I provided (NY Times), somewhere on the left side of the page, you have to scroll down a bit.

I have heard it was in international waters, but I am not totally sure about the accuracy of what I was told.

i agree if it was a true humanitarian ship WHY DID THEY FIGHT BACK????

The Israeli commandos fought back because they were being beaten which clubs and rods, stabbed with knives, and shot with their own pistols (do not quote me on that last on, sorry). If you look at the al-jazeera vid, the ...

Hey, I have not been on this forum in a while, I thought I would jump in spontaneously. I think this is a good topic to discuss and I am interested in other opinions on the matter.

Why does this seem like the same people arguing the same exact debate for the xth time?

There's no such thing as a "pure diamond"... it's just multiple carbon atoms, combined into carbon molecules, compressed and superheated

Superheated? That is not how natural diamonds are formed...

and several molecules of such combined into chains which make the near indestructible lattice ...

In a pure diamond?

John is right, the carbon atoms are all linked together by covalent bonds (one carbon atom is bonded to four others).

LYR

Is a diamond one single molecule?

The most enjoyment I obtain from these videos is the knowledge we could actually end women's suffrage this way (not seriously, but would it not be great if we had 200 million + people signing a petition like this?).

I just wonder what else we can do with the power of stupidity behind us...

They already do: regulations on dumping, infectious disease research, provide protections to prevent nuclear waste leaks, etc. It doesn't mean the government should provide for (or force) everybody to visit the doctor.

egh...even the smallest amount could give you death...but you probably need lots to get skin cancer.

I meant it as an analogy (or did you understand that? I do not know).

Swine flu is to the Sun as death is to skin cancer.
