New York Times on the Web Forums Science
Technology has always found its greatest consumer in a nation's
war and defense efforts. Since the last attempts at a "Star Wars"
defense system, has technology changed considerably enough to make
the latest Missile Defense initiatives more successful? Can such an
application of science be successful? Is a militarized space
inevitable, necessary or impossible?

"" DIAL 911 Fear is gaining ground once again in the minds of
the human race, large populations are oppress continuously by the
same mighty force of the strongest, in quality strength is the
brother of modestly as only a humble being can be strong.
We have now on our hands the weak and scared American
administration, they act not with the hand of reason or strength but
with the emotions of fear, it can simply be analysed that the urge
of building the grand armada is out of fear, the apparent oppressive
behaviour of the American nation is the shield that hides the
weakness of the spirit.
What the American nation needs is comfort and understanding,
guided to the reasonable path to achieve self-assurance and future
stability. Observing the events of sep 11, we can easily agree, the
wrapping up, Al Queda is a mayor force in strength tactics, spirit,
psychologically solid credit to their unassuming nature, their
battle seams to have a rock-solid ground.
The American administration can exercise fear through nuclear
weapons and their military strength but the men and women are in
fact weak, without the nuclear weapons and the B52 Americans are
helpless, it is their government that by their military methods have
fool the nation and now finds itself with only one solution which is
the continuity of oppression by any means possible, otherwise the
true nature of the individuals will surface.
Conjecture, the Al Queda and activist of the world have gain
courage and eventually lost all fear, they know themselves well and
know the enemy even better.
The outcome of the carpet bombing and the deice cutter along with
cruse missiles have not defeated Al Queda and activist of the world,
its depth is increasing, the audacity of self sacrifice is on the
awaking stages practically they are not afraid of Goliath.
The problem that surface from this complexity is that the Goliath
is increasing his military strength believing that just is correct
approach, but the David who in the actual are the 3 world minorities
?their force is not physical but spiritual? become determined in
their cause.
The American administration must realise that there are 30
million of Hispanic in the country, another 30 millions who are
called AfroAmericans, and another 30 millions of diverse ethnic
races who he will have to oppress in order to achieve his aim.
The remaining white American population faces an extreme police
and military oppression, putting liberties and the easy of living a
thing of the past. It is quite illogical to consider a nation that
have being motivated to fear and psychological nightmares a winning
nation, it looks more like a nation in anxiety.
Europe must aid the American citizen and help him to understand,
but it must be quite firm and crystal clear about the rhetoric used
between the two ?specially the American administration?, once fear
is install in the European mind it would be unable to help the
Americans, them the result could be worse?
In order to salvage the chaos we are actually in, is better for
the American administration to accept reality and retreat its
military force from the Indian Ocean and Israel should follow, as
that action will make terrorism unfounded.
America will gain in spirit and remain yet dazzlingly. "" END

The Accused Sabra http://www2b.abc.net.au/4corners/newforum/
Twenty years ago Lebanese militiamen stormed into the
Palestinian refugee camps of Sabra and Shatila. When they left 36
hours later, at least 800 people lay dead after a rampage of
murder, torture and rape.
In the ensuing storm Ariel Sharon resigned as Israel's Defence
Minister. He had been held responsible for letting the militiamen
into the camps.
Now Prime Minister, Mr Sharon has maintained that he could not
have foreseen the bloodshed. The BBC's Fergal Keane tests this
denial and asks if there is a case for war crimes indictments for
the massacre at Sabra and Shatila.
