What are you doing watching that, they lie. Watch Fox, always truthful.

Just kidding, both are rubbish..

Obama took alot of flak for getting involved, took alot of critisism.
MSNBC is just "rubbing the conservatives face in the poo" so to speak..(it is their job, just like it is Foxs job to villify him)

They aren't news networks, it is news entertainment. Jon Stewart has more media credibility than these outfits. At least he tells you he is peddling entertainment in the guise of news.

The result of Gaddafi's post-mortum is that he comitted suicide by shooting himself 5 times in the head from a passing car.

Jimbuna 10-22-11 04:05 PM

On a more serious note....does anyone know of the fate of Gaddafis son Saif because I've read three different reports from captured to killed and being in hospital in a critical condition having lost an arm? :hmmm:

Seems that people from North Korea won't be free with the help of NATO and/or US. Because they don't have oil

I'd love to see oil producing countries switch to Euro or gold for oil trade though.

Oh yeah.. all Qaddafi wanted is prosperity for Africa and his people.
All he had to do is switch to gold currency to achieve this against NATO wish.
Yeah.. yeah.. its the same in Libya and Arabia and all other countries that screw their own people while the tribe on the top sits on its ass counting money.
Apparently there is a lot of dirty business going but this self guilt about injustice in Arab world is beyond comprehension.

You can fix that easily. Just dig up a French birth cert for Obama and watch them switch the credit to Italy.

Why not Nagorno-Karabakh instead of Italy?

Thats just cruel, why confuse them even further?

antikristuseke 10-23-11 04:37 AM

I'm easily amused.

Jimbuna 10-23-11 05:24 AM

It would appear he remained defiant to the end....BBC news an hour ago reported a will he wrote five days ago has been passed on to his relatives and amongst it's contents was his wish that should he die, he wanted his supporters to carry on the fight.

What a surprise. The Interim Government in Libya has announced that Sharia Law will now be the law of the land.

I knew when Europe and Obama decided on getting involved in Libya's civil war that this would be the result.

Once again Obama has shown his true colors by supporting hard core Muslims over Secular Leaders.

Now we have thousands of missing shoulder launched SAMs in a country that will no doubt ally itself with al quaeda since they aided the rebels. I'm sureeeeeeeeeeeeee everything will work out just fine.

Within 5-10 years we will all be wishing Quaddaffi was still running Libya. As things stand right now it looks like we created another ally for Iran and another base for terrorists.

I take it you don't know anything about sharia or the laws of Libya then Satyr.

You really are confused.
Forget for a moment that you don't like the current US President and see if you can actually think about the subject as so far you have made very little sense and indeed much of what you wrote is just a plain demonstation of woefull ignorance

What's wrong with Muslim laws controlling the land? Isn't in similar in Saudi Arabia? Muslim does not = bad, get your head out your arse and realize there are other cultures then American, Democratic and Christian. :doh:

CaptainHaplo 10-24-11 10:45 PM

While there are multiple schools of thought in how Sharia should be applied - certain facets remain the same.

Polygamy is allowed (though in modern society it has been outlawed in some places)
Women are still second class citizens.
Banks are not allowed to charge interest on loans (boy can't you see all the world's banks running to get into libya now! NOT!)
Conversion from islam is apostasy, equal to treason and is punishable by death.

There is more, but you get the picture. Suffice it to say that its not exactly the most equitable foundation for a society to be built upon. Its not a matter of someone's head up their arse - its a matter of differences in how people view other humans, how people should deal with each other, and how much one religion should be allowed to permeate society to the forcible exclusion of all the rest.

Krauter 10-24-11 11:25 PM

All I'm saying is that just because a country is guided by a religious law, be it islam or any other religion, does not mean that that country is suddenly terrible to its people.

Your right... because there are only two real Theocracies in the world right now, and one is quite nice and peaceful, the other wellllll... you know...

Does a system that is fair and just 50% of the time be considered "good" :hmmm:

This is puzzling me also Jim....why no mention of this guy?. I can't find anything about him. He was the 'number 2'- the heir apparent.

The lack of information about him may speak volumes, about what though I do not know...

I read today that he is trying to sneak to Niger with a false passport.

Hague Tribunal will have a lot to do, both with Gaddafi's men and these baseball cap revolutionists who first shout "no more terror" and then shoot you in the back after smashing your head with a riffle butt. :yeah:
