That's meaningless, really. You could just as accurately say
In 2006, 91 per cent of all known executions took place in China, Iran, Pakistan, Iraq, Sudan, USA, and Canada.

Don't give anyone this BS about the USA being so concerned about human rights in other countries! A load of bunk....

What do you think the kurds got gassed with? :roll: Just because there weren't a lot and they weren't in good shape doesn't mean they didn't exit at all.
Those HRW guys ever get any more info on that secret Israeli ambulance drill press missile? I've been dying to get the low down on that.
You're right, just as meaningless as connecting the executions of teenagers in Iraq to something that constitutes truth coming out Bush's mouth. No correlation at all.
Don't forget to listen to the president of Columbia speak.

"In Iran we don't have homosexuals like you do"
My god the press had a field day on the little man.... this one was pretty cruel....

What a pile of horse sh|it. That is not nearly as accurate as the first statement, because including Canada on that list implies that we use the death penalty, which we obviously do not. :roll:
Kindasleeza Rice said Ahmadinejad's government exports terrorism. Obvioulsy, she forgot her history as it is the USA that exported terrorism to Nicaragua, Guatemala, Vietnam, and now Iraq.
Actually the experts have toured all the nuclear facilities in Iran. Read the IAEA report for details. The IAEA has inspected the facilities to the extent that is has verified the non diversion of declared fissionable materials. The remaining issues on the table deal with past intentions and studies carried out in Iran. The IAEA has reached an agreement with Iran on how to resolve these issues, but the USA and France are blocking this at the UN level.
It should be noted that the Non-proliferation treaty affirms the inalienable right of nations to the use of nuclear research and other peaceful uses, Article IV.1 emphasis mine:
So the UN resolution which demands the cessation of enrichment has absolutely no grounding inside the NPT, by the strict wording of the above article.
Homosexuality is not a lifestyle choice, but homosexual acts are. So are heterosexual acts. We always have the freedom to choose how we satisfy our sexual urges.
That might be in the link I posted... let me check.
Yup, they have fed 0.7 metric tons of uranium fluoride into their cascades. The IAEA measured a previous enrichment level of 3.7%, so about 25 kilograms will be produced when the current cascades finish. Previously, 14 kg were enriched which would amount to about half a kilogram that they currently possess.
True enough, but keep in mind that we also don't have the freedom to choose how our psyche responds to our repression of our biological needs. The general psychological response to forced mental repression is quite bad, that is why ascetic monks are so few.
Columbia handled this exactly correctly......they allowed him to speak as a matter of principle, but vehemently distanced themselves from his views.
Freedom of speech is NOT just for those you agree with.
Kudos to Columbia and the President of same.
Iran's president isn't United State's president. His position is more figurehead than anything. Now, if the Ayatolla wanted to lay a wreath, you'd want to know what's in the wreath. Had some trouble-seeking member of NYC's militant Jewish community managed to attack Ahmadinejad, you can bet the world's sympathies would be fully with Iran should Uncle Sam invade. As it is, it only looks like USA is looking for another war....

Very true. Just seems to me Uncle Sam let an opportunity to show good faith slip by. You slight 'em once, you'll do it again - and arrogance is something the world notices.
