between you & I, it's a scarey
thought Russia & Iran butt buddies now. Will there be a third war?
Does Putan know something that none of the officials know elsewhere in
this world? Arms Treaty my ass!! All the time they and N Korea
were
jerking our chain... and we were stupid enough to buy it all.
What's our
world coming to? Are we all doomed?</font><br

not sure what you're referring to, girl, but the only problem i see is
america bomming iran (or israel doing it). as
long as u guys get YOUR ship back in order the world's basically fine
and can sort out things.</span><br

<span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 255); font-family: Arial;">anyway
we published some time back that russia had warned israel that
if they attacked iran they would nuke it within the hour. that's
what's held the israelis back this far, id say.</span><br

<span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 255); font-family: Arial;">for
the past 50 years peace campaigners have argued that if we
westerners have nuclear bombs everyone will need them too. now
it's
happening and what do the perpetrators do? threaten to nuke
anyone
else who tries to get them! jeezuz am glad am not him :) </span><span

how world war III is a battle for mens minds? well, it
sounds from your letter like they're hyping up this iran russia thing
over there which ain't happening here AT ALL so far as i can see.
so
my question is are they preparing YOU guys for an attack on iran?

so far as of yesterday, 10/17, was the
first that CNN news shed any light on it at all. Now its possible
I
might have missed something on the news, but I heard this female
reporter speaking of a 3rd world war and she seemed pretty fearful,
plus, she surely had no respect for Bush boy. It sounds to me
like Bush is actually ready to attack Iran and I wonder where he is
planning
on getting the troops?? They are already stretched to the
max. How can
this happen? Is he plain ole stupid or what?? I heard that
if there is
a WW III it will go on for decades and terrorism will be
happening here as well. We will all be gone that's for
sure! Its going
to take some kind of a miracle for war not to happen. Bush seems
to be
willing to show the world that he won't take any bull from any
country.
He won't back down. Hell, its not his life, ya know! Of
course this is
just my opinion as I see it.</small></div>

>> i don't know what CNN was saying. the UP! reported
the meeting in iran
as 5 nations saying they'd back each other if either was attacked,
which
suggests THEY think bush might be mad enuff. more likely israel
of
course.<br>
so how did cnn report that summit?<br>
american reporters may have finally seen thru bush but that don't mean
they've yet understood that other peoples have other priorities, and
that attacking america is just about the <span
style="font-style: italic;">last </span>thing on their mind. or
would
be if america didn't continue barging forwards (ask the muslims).<br>

stands to
reason. Do you really believe that
Iran is only 5 years away from building a bomb? <br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 255);">>> that's what the IAEA
(or wotever it is) sez. and most of the scientists not employed
by bush. and nobody's proved they're even TRYING to build one
though i reckon they are, and i think it's a perfectly sane thing to do
on their part. it's what i would do if i had yankee troops to the
southwest in iraq, yankee troops to the east in afghanistan, yankee
arms to the south in israel (which just bommed syria to the west) and
etc.

If Iran did have
one... wouldn't you think that they would use it? <br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 255);">>>iran hasn't attacked
another nation in izzit a thousand years? why would they want to
attack ANYONE? in the past century america and germany are the
only nations who've made a habit of attacking other nations right?

</span>I mean look at
terrorism now, and how they believe. Why would they stop there
and not
threaten all of us, meaning Every country? Hey, I can't see

civilisation ruled by spiritual men (certainly compared to american
politicians wouldn't u say?). please explain cos i just can't
grok where you're coming from. do u think they're all "crazy
mullahs" who want to make us all live under sharia law? honestly
is that it? do u think they'd rather be annihilated than allow you to
walk around without a burkah? hey i must put this in the

<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">A research
team from the <span style="font-style: italic;">Northern California
Cancer Center</span>, the University of Southern California, and <span
style="font-style: italic;">Wake Forest University School of Medicine</span>
has found that increased exposure to sunlight - which increases levels
of <span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 204);">vitamin D</span> in the
body - may decrease the risk of advanced breast cancer.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">In a study
reported in the <span style="font-style: italic;">American Journal of
Epidemiology</span>, the researchers found that women with high sun
exposure had half the risk of developing advanced breast cancer, which
is cancer that has spread beyond the breast, compared to women with low
sun exposure. These findings were observed only for women with
naturally light skin color. The study defined high sun exposure
as having dark skin on the forehead, an area that is usually exposed to
sunlight.</span><br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">The
scientists used a portable reflectometer to measure skin colour on the
underarm, an area that is usually not directly exposed to
sunlight. Based on these measurements, they classified the women
as having light, medium or dark natural skin color. Researchers
then compared sun exposure between women with breast cancer and those
without breast cancer. Sun exposure was measured as the
difference in skin colour between the underarm and the forehead.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">In women with
naturally light skin pigmentation, the group without breast cancer had
significantly more sun exposure than the group with breast
cancer. The fact that this difference occurred only in one group
suggests that the effect was due to differences in vitamin D
production and wasn’t just because the women were sick and unable
to go outdoors. In addition, the effect held true regardless of
whether the cancer was diagnosed in the summer or in the winter.
The difference was seen only in women with advanced disease, suggesting
that <span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">vitamin D </span>may be
important in slowing the growth of breast cancer cells.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">

<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"><span
style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">“We believe that
sunlight helps to reduce women’s risk of breast cancer because the body
manufactures the active form of vitamin D from exposure to sunlight,”</span>
said Esther John, Ph.D., lead researcher on the study from the Northern
California Cancer Center. <span
style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 51, 255);">“It is possible
that these effects were observed only among light- skinned women
because sun exposure produces less vitamin D among women with naturally
darker pigmentation.”</span></span><br

<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">These new
findings about breast cancer risk and sun exposure based on skin color
measurements are consistent with previous research by John and
colleagues that had shown that <span

who reported frequent sun exposure had a lower risk of developing
breast cancer than women with infrequent sun exposure.</span></span><span

In New York's LaGuardia, I reluctantly found myself
putting a hardcover copy of Tara McKelvey's excellent <span

expose of CIA interrogation practices, in a garbage can before I get in
the security line; it is based on classified information. This
morning
at my hotel, before going to the airport, I threw away a very nice
black T-shirt that said "<span

Silenced</span>" - with an Arabic
translation - that someone had given me, along with a copy of poems

More times than I can count, courageous and confident men who are
telling me about speaking up, but who are risking what they see as the

And always the questions: <big style="text-decoration: underline;"><big

<br>
It is clear from this inundation of personal stories of abuse and

behavior and intention is catching up more and more mainstream citizens
in its grasp.<br>

is
that your alignment with the regime offers no protection; in a true
police state no one is safe.<br>

I read the news daily in a state of something like walking shock: <br>
7 soldiers wrote op-eds critical of the war in <span
style="font-style: italic;">The New York Times</span>;
3 are dead, one shot in the head. <br>
A female soldier who was about to
become a whistleblower, possibly about abuses involving taxpayers'
money: shot in the head. <br>
Pat Tillman, who was contemplating coming
forward in a critique of the war: shot in the head. <br>
Donald Vance, a
contractor himself, who blew the whistle on irregularities involving
arms sales in Iraq - taken hostage FROM the U.S. Embassy BY U.S.
soldiers and kept without recourse to a lawyer in a U.S. held-prison,
abused and terrified for weeks - and scared to talk once he got home.<br>
Another whistleblower in Iraq, as reported in <span

trailer all night by armed contractors before being ejected from the
country.</div>
<div style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><br>
Last week contractors, immune from the rule of law, butchered 17 Iraqi
civilians in cold blood. Congress mildly objected - and
contractors
today butcher two more innocent civilian Iraqi ladies - in cold blood.<br>

how else I made my income apart from writing. I explained that I
am a
well-established and well-respected writer who makes money from
consultations,
workshops and magazine articles as well as touring internationally, but
they
didn’t want to acknowledge that. I kept testifying to the
kindness of my
ex-husband and my friends both in the <st1:country-region w:st="on">UK</st1:country-region>
and the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">US</st1:country-region></st1:place>,

the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">USA</st1:country-region></st1:place>.
So now they had something to pin on me. He tested a bar and
brought it to me
claiming it tested positive for narcotics, which it clearly
doesn’t. I
think he expected me to admit I was a dope dealer, he kept asking me
the last
time I smoked marijuana. They said they were going to fine me
$5000 dollars. Then suddenly it was $500 dollars which<span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"> I had to pay
then and there.</span> They
frogmarched me to a cashpoint and made me withdraw the money, although
when I'd offered to do this earlier to prove I had funds,
they said that was not something they would do. Then the only
cash available was
in pounds sterling, so they let me go without paying anyway. I
had to sign a form, but I
questioned which bars they had taken because not all of them contained
hemp,
only a few. He snatched the form away from me, saying, <span
style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">“OK,
refusal to sign.”</span>
The whole thing was <span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">completely
inconsistent and nonsensical.<br>

what was the point, considering if they'd checked me out at all, they
would
have discovered me to be bona fide? OK, yes I was stupid to take
the chocolate
in my case. But that was really the only thing I did wrong, and
on the form
they gave me it says, <span

me straight back on a plane via <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city

so I spent 28 hrs solid on planes and in airports. I was in a
state of shock;
right after it happened I went very cold, my teeth were chattering, I
couldn’t stop shaking and I kept bursting into tears randomly for the
whole
of the next day as soon as anyone showed me <span
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">any human kindness</span>.
The officials
treated me despicably and inhumanely and I hadn’t even done anything.
What would they be like to someone who had <span
style="font-style: italic;">actually </span>broken the laws?
It’s
very scary. The written testament they gave me of the interview
misses out any
inappropriate questions and as such is a completely inaccurate record
of the
interview, <span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">a

point is,

failed to see the ape walking past in the video I also failed to notice
the person of Jesus for most of my life because I was only looking at
the people in the church to see what they were doing. I actually
despised the church and religion. Once I took my eyes off the church
and focused on Jesus I saw who he was. Take a new look at what Jesus
said without looking at the church. Maybe you will see something you
have not seen before?</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br>
