Comment on Saint Paul’s Letters by Andrew

Wonder what the postal service was like in saint paul’s day. I expect it was mostly donkeys. Naturally too I’d say that if the post office DID deliver on their ‘Next Day’ promise that the crowds would be out celebrating - waving the leaves of the palm tree and all that………

Comment on Grand Jury Whitewash Andrew Hanlon’s Killing. The Scandal Is Complete by Zhane

From what I am to understand, they let him off only to nail him for the sex abuse. I still think the family needs to take the trial to a higher court and have it tied over again. I am willing to help by taking money out of my Social Security check to help the family. This way the people that did not get to be called as witnesses can leave their name for the family to be called as a witness.

I lost a friend in Boston years ago who suffered from Bi Polar and was shot to death by an officer, so I know what the family is going through.

The failure to act in Rwanda was plain, old-fashioned racism: Africans didn’t matter.

In Bosnia, it wouldn’t have taken an invasion to stop the killing. One or two air strikes on the artillery in the hiills overlooking Sarajevo would have stopped the slaughter there.

Mladic kept probing to see how serious the West’s threat was, and when he saw that it was no threat at all, he knew he had a free hand.

Any serious resistance would have prevented the massacres of Bosnia without the need for an invasion.

In Iraq, the entire country is under US occupation, and that’s an entirely different situation.

Anyway, Bosnia has no oil!

About bloody time. Sick bastard.

I do however have to laugh at the innate hypocritical logic used in describing the West’s involvement, or rather lack thereof in this situation, as in Rwanda around the same time.

Yes, they went into Iraq under false pretenses and the whole thing has been a shambles since, but surely Saddam was as big a genocidal criminal as these guys.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

No wonder no one is doing anything about Sudan.
