		Re: Hotel Palestine
(...) I'll agree they probably didn't give an order that the building should never be shot at. I think that order would be just as idiotic. I don't think they shot at it just to shoot at reporters though either. Which some news reports have (...) (21 years ago, 8-Apr-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Iran: For peace in the region? No! For a piece of the region...
(...) I never saw such news in any part of the media during the period. It should be another case of intentional disinformation, either in your country or mine. Having both Fox News/CNN and NTV/Haber Turk (national news channels), and watching them (...) (21 years ago, 8-Apr-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) Er, whoops. I'm an Economist subscriber (print edition) so it's no cost to me. But the point of the article, and the diagram in particular, is that Iran is more of a theocracy that has some elected (but basically powerless) appendages, than a (...)

		Re: Iran: For peace in the region? No! For a piece of the region...
(...) the most basic element of democracy is that the people decide how they want their government to work. in 1981, when US backed Saddam invaded their country, people signed up en masse to give their lives for their country. Of course, it is easy (...) (21 years ago, 7-Apr-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: New Stories from the New Testament
(...) An interpretation they share with many detractors of the Bible. (...) I've not read it, so I don't know anything about it's stance (pro-Bible or anti-Bible), but you might want to check out a book called _The Harlot by the Side of the Road: (...)

		Re: New Stories from the New Testament
(...) There are those Christians who think that the KJV is the only valid translation, and that all more recent translations (NIV, NASB, RSV, etc) are suspect. Some of them elevate the KJV so much that it seems they even find the original Hebrew, (...) (23 years ago, 13-Feb-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: My over-simplification of the anti-war movement
(...) Hi Maggie..:-) Things are not pretty here. Although the "no to US troops" decision is mainly based on the usual misorganization of our government, it quite represents the public opinion about the whole mess. This opinion of course, has both (...) (22 years ago, 1-Apr-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: New Stories from the New Testament
(...) It looked like a simplified children's Bible to me, and not one meant to be taken as complete. Perhaps reading through the "Young Person's Bible" I gave to my son prepared me to accept this kind of thing. I read through the Last Supper, with (...)

		Re: Outrageous Iraqi Geneva Convention Violation

We are such a long way from when the cup may have been half full at this point in time -- it is so clearly no more than half empty now. And how we can we free others (...)

		Pelton wheels, photovoltaics, hydro, biomas and marine current [not the "war"]

Right now about 10% of our power needs come from (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

I see your point, but even if we were able to go back, it would certainly have a profound effect upon society as we know it. But how (...) (22 years ago, 24-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Copyright/Fair use question

		Re: If you oppose drug legalization, you support terrorism!

		Re: If you oppose drug legalization, you support terrorism!
It's easy to put the terrorists and drug lords out of business: just legalize the stuff (and in case that sounds too Libertarian, tax it and use the money for drug education and rehabilitation! <g>).

It seems obvious to us that anyone (who won't have substantial power in the alternative state) should prefer a free state, but is that really true? If it isn't, what do (...)
