Very creative POV from US Military
Very creative point of view from US military.
"The suicides of three detainees at the US base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, amount to acts of war."
They say it is an asymmetrical warfare waged against the US by the dead detainees when they killed themselves. I get the asymmetrical part, but I still fail to understand the warfare part.
Living in India which is plagued by terrorist threats to its being, I understand that things like these are necessary up to a point to ensure the integrity of the nation state. But to claim it as an act of War borders on ludicrous. ¶ 3:51 PM 0 Comments

Holland
Holland gets new party link
It is a party that stands for free pedophilia, While I oppose their idea, I am jealous of the permissivity of the dutch society to permit the existance of such parties.
What ever may be the cause, it is much better for the society to allow any and all kinds of opinions to be expressed. Because once we start judging others by our moral yardstick, there is nothing preventing others to use their own yardsticks too, and nothing says that their yardstick is going to be the same length as that of yours. Invariably the length tends to decrease over time.
I hope other nations (most notably my country) takes a leaf out of their book. ¶ 1:08 AM 0 Comments
