America and its allies are performing missile attack on Libya. They are helping the rebels to oust Qaddafi from power. Why America is pocking nose in Libya's internal affair? Let Libyans solve their own problem. Is America is the...

spalladino Judging by what you posted below you also seem to have forgotten that Qaddafi's military has been killing unarmed citizens, which is what the coalition is trying to stop. Other measures were taken in an attempt to get him to stop the killing before the U.N....

Everybody has heard of peer pressure, but most people argue that they are not affected by it, or at least not affected as 'most people.' The truth is, we are all affected by the people we interact with, many of whom we don't even...

spalladino I think it's difficult to get an accurate feeling about a person if you're only exposed to their contributions in one or two topics. For instance, I'm not nearly as harsh as I come across on the political board. Back when I had more time I posted on many of...

Now that US forces are involved in establishing a no fly zone over Libya and firing missiles on military targets, it's useful to consider the reasons the US involves itself in foreign revolts and the removal of dictators. It's...

I'm truly fascinated by the left in this country. For the last decade I've heard them screaming about Bush's illegal war in Iraq. The Iraq war was voted on in congress and received bipartisan support yet many of the same morons...

spalladino When did anyone "declare war" on anyone else? The U.N. resolution was very clear and Gaddafi violated it. He can consider it an act of war if he wants...but he also considers the rebels to be high on drugs.

spalladino You're right, it is a far cry from a call for action. The U.S., whether by design or by accident, has not given the appearance of being hot to trot to take aggressive action against an Arab nation. As I indicated above, a lot of discussion took place with the...

spalladino @debra: "OK...so Obama waited for the UN. WHAT gives the UN the right to make US foreign policy?" This is not a U.S. vs Libya situation. Libya did not take action against the U.S. so we have no right to independently decide to go into that country....

spalladino Thanks for the BR gladys. Hatred makes people irrational...as I'm sure you've noticed...and nothing Obama does is ever right as far as some are concerned. George Bush was criticized strongly for what came to be called his "cowboy foreign...
