Stable nations are a greater threat to the U.S that stable nations

Failed nations are a greater threat to the U.S because of the lack of government control, also lack of territory control, and not being able to interact with other countries as a whole. These failed nations are posing several physical threats to the U.S because of all the nuclear power being help by them. Failed nations are also safe havens for terrorism to expand. www.gale.com/harvardinternationalreview...

Waterboarding is torture and anyone who allowed it/executed it should be prosecuted

abard124
Clockwork

Hi! Recently you may have heard about detainees being waterboarded. If you have been living under a rock for the past couple months, this might help: http://www.msnbc.msn.com...

Not only are we debating that Dick Cheney and Condi Rice and all those other mother firetruckers should be prosecuted, but also that waterboarding is torture. If you aren't convinced of that, try this: http://www.vanityfair.com... Now, I'm pretty sure torture i...

brian_eggleston
RoyLatham

World leaders at the recent G20 meeting in London agreed that it is time to close the net on tax evaders by putting the squeeze on international tax havens such as the Cayman Islands and Gibraltar (1). Of course, if the established offshore banks are forced to close their doors, there will be plenty of other countries that will be only to happy to flout the will of the international community and welcome mega-rich tax dodgers with open arms. However, property tycoons, oil barons and inbred ar...

I think Hummus is delicious

Brewmaster
McBain

So I'm sitting here at my desk, and suddenly I'm struck with a thought. I'm eating pretzels with Hummus, and suddenly I realize that I freakin love hummus. It's delicious. Or at least, I think that it is. However, I find that I am often wrong when I have thoughts. My brain simply isn't capable of processing an idea that complicated. Therefore I ask you to attempt to prove that I do not think hummus is delicious, and I will argue as best I can, and in the end I'll have a better idea of whether...

terrorist are bad for the world

Terrorist are bad because many people can die in one attack. Terrorists also just want to kill people. They want to kill themselves and kill other people. They can wipe out some of the population. In a war, government might send terrorist to bomb a place that is important to a country. They create fear and kill innocent people. They also break the law and attack. When a country is in envy with another country, they might just bomb the whole place. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism...
