Not I Brother.

I thought this might be appropriate -

"Of course the people don't want war.  But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliment, or a communist dictatorship.  Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.  That is easy.  All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

Hi Bronzesnake,

Consider a letter to the editor.  Let them know how you feel.  I am absolutely sure you will not be alone in writing.

Hi Brother Love,

May we use your dragons to protect the food and coke from the aliens ?  They are the fire breathing variety aren't they ?

Sulfurdolphin,

Please save yourself some time, don't look for any "solar" research on Nessie.  You won't find any.  Trust me on this one.

We have "eyewitness" accounts of UFOs and alien abductions too.  Do you also accept them to be true ?

Hi Yoyostick,

You are not missing much.  Take the title of this thread, add "therefore evolution must be false" and you have the essence.  Hope this helps.

Hi Bronzesnake,

The USSR and Great Britain were "allies" during WWII.  After the war the soviets built and maintained a large bomber and missle force.  Later this included basing weapons in Cuba.

The soviets didn't participate in the North African campaign but after the war supplied war materials to many client states including Egypt.

The soviets did invade Europe during WWII.  Germany and the USSR invaded Poland to start the war.  The USSR also invaded Finland.  Later huge soviet armies invaded eastern Europe and maintained occupation for decades.  The USSR was also prepared to send occupation troops to Japan but MacArthur stopped that.

Stalin led the USSR at the begining of the cold war.  Those that followed him continued soviet expansion, exerting influence in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, South and Central America.   No doubt in my mind that he was no better than Hitler.  I hope we can agree about this.

You take care too my friend.  I trust you are feeling well, IIRC you were very sick for a while.
