I don't get why people argue this. There is waning support in the US to continue this war. There is little to no support in the world for continuing this war. Troops are limited beings just like every other human. We have have a finite number of them...  [Read More]

Congress can authorize war, but cannot itself wage war. While the legislature has the power to control funding, that's about as much real control as they have once the shots are fired (beyond trying to impeach or hamstring a president, I suppose). Th...  [Read More]

Frankly, DE the war in Iraq, much like in Korea of the 50's, never officially ended in anything other than a ceasefire. Upon Iraq violating the conditions of said cease-fire, the war continues. Simple. Further, wasn't aware that UN was now the One Wo...  [Read More]

DE's list of allegations aside, what would be the specific charge? It would need to be more specific than a kind of show trial to "put the fear of god" in present and future politicians, who more often than not would fall into the category...  [Read More]

Actually, that's a "movement" about every administration that has a shot at replacing vacancies (real/potential) on the SC. Each president that finds himself in that spot will often look for judges/candidates w/in their respective parties o...  [Read More]

SS: Don't just go and call for impeachment of 5 judges that happen to hate your ideas. And until then, abide by the desicion by the SC. Actually, that's what ends up happening anyway. You're stuck with a decision and then you have to organize (or no...  [Read More]

Insofar as the title of your thread, I'd have to agree with the sentiment that it's not only ok to believe/think the SC is wrong when you don't like its decisions (think refs, and how often are their calls questioned), but in a way your civic obligat...  [Read More]

I have no doubt that they still possess quite an arsenal, but the question is it enough to fight the forces of the West? Would they use those weapons in the event of a conflict they would start? To the Western side lies two defensive treaties, the EU...  [Read More]

It seems you can take the man out of the KGB, but not necessarily the KGB out of the man. It would be a mistake to dismiss Russia out of hand. First, while many Soviet era nukes are apparently missing (other things as well probably), they no doubt ha...  [Read More]

Yeah, but even if there were multiple universes, fiction is still fiction. So, unless we possess godlike power to create such entities, it's all sort of irrelevant. If I imagine torturing a nemesis and write a story playing out such a fantasy on pape...  [Read More]

First, ET, your stand on CP is fairly well established in these forums. You seem to suggest that there is no such thing as 100% assurance that someone is guilty of a crime (your post to ED). In your reply to JM12 you assert that she can't understand...  [Read More]

Was curious how you could emotionaly argue to JM12 that someone could know (presumably 100%)that their innocent fill-in-the-blank was murdered by the state, yet somehow one's guilt cannot be determined 100% in your riposte to ED. ET:That's interesti...  [Read More]

That's interesting, who gets to decide that someone is so obviously guilty that they don't even really need a trial? At what point are we going to draw that line? Do we only allow the death penalty for those who we have this 100% no doubt about it ce...  [Read More]

The fear of it being about to work is most likely the problem. If such a system could intercept Russian missles before they reach space and deploy their MIRVed warheads and decoys, that would put them at a severe disadvantage in any potential conflic...  [Read More]

Personally, I don't believe they'd do it till a war had actually started. Then it's anyone's guess what kind of turns that would take. But it's one thing to threaten (no doubt to express the DEGREE of anger/disapproval they feel) and another to follo...  [Read More]
