Neat. Do they have a website?

I beg to differ. The problems in the ME prove it, imho. YMMV, obviously.

Infinite variables, one action, of course it is not going to turn out the same. The two suggested authors of that definition are reported to be either Einstein or Ben Franklin with Einstein getting the most votes. Both scientists.

My thanks to Geezer for bringing some flames to the Flame Pit. Discussion, flames and just the smallest portion of civility..perfect.

Well, if you look at the history of the ME since about 1920, I would say the results have been just about the same. Slight variables? Sure. But, in general, intervention = effed up.

It amazes me when Bogus_bill offers statements likes these



Supposedly these ideals of question are opposite.
TEA-Party Non intervention.
Bachman Non-intervention(hadn't heard this.)
Then Liberal non-intervention.

How do they get "grouped" as possibilities. Two being ultra conservative to the one liberal.

It's NON-INTERVENTION.

Imagine the joint base close by being Chinese or Russian installations. Beyond ANYONES exclamations of impossibilities, that is what the countries we are Occupying and building bases on today regard Americans to be like in a percentage higher then approve the occupation.

I agree Funky: In general, intervention = effed up.

Who's the Jews now?

Israeli bill would outlaw comparisons to Nazis
AP – 6 hrs ago

JERUSALEM (AP) — A proposed bill would make it a crime in Israel to criticize people by comparing them to Nazis.

The draft legislation would impose penalties of up to six months in jail and a $25,000 fine for using the word "Nazi" or Holocaust symbols for purposes other than teaching, documentation or research.

The draft legislation passed its first hurdle Monday when Cabinet ministers approved it. It now goes to the full parliament for a vote.

The bill was proposed after ultra-Orthodox demonstrators set off a furor by dressing young boys as Nazi concentration camp inmates during a protest against what they said was incitement against their community. Protesters have also called police "Nazis."

The bill has been criticized by civil rights groups that see it as infringing on freedom of expression.

NYTimes - Iran nuclear scientist carbombed

My bet is the Israelis but the bomber could have been CIA. See, even crazy people don't want crazy people to have nuclear arms.

The doomsday clock just moved one click forward:

clock

My guess is that it was motivated by the UN which has long been adamantly opposed to Iran obtaining nuclear capability. Maybe they decided that action speaks louder than verbal posturing.
Then again, any sentence which contains the words "UN" and "action" doesn't really make any sense based on past UN (non)performance.
