It was built to avoid war though. That's the whole basis, tolerance and cooperation happen to come along with that.

Some channels are calling some states for Bush. "CNN" is being a bit more cautious this time... Sounds like Ohio won't be decided until all the Provisional ballots are counted... It also sounds like Iowa won't be counted because of some problems there in the counting system. I guess we'll just have to wait...? ;)

I can't remember who said this but "if you want peace, prepare for war". There will always be someone ready to attack you. But preparing for war is not a bad thing. It meant Europe banded together to avert wars, and it worked. They've built a system of peace now instead because they didn't want to fight each other anymore. It's a very strong system. I believe they recently force "Microsoft" to sell a scaled down version of its operating system. To give an example of how strong of a system the Europeans have built for themselves.

Did you even read what I said? I pointed out an example of a war that couldn't be avoided. You claimed right there they all could if people weren't so selfish and greedy, and ideally that's a nice idea. But realistically, it's not going to happen. Being Anti-War isn't always the right solution. People will be greedy and selfish in this world and quite frankly people can only control themselves. Communism was meant to give back to the people. In the end it only took from them as well. Even people with the right ideas can be corrupted into being just as bad and worse than those they're trying to stop or change.

There's been a lot of talk recently about the Iraqi war around here. Specifically, the idea of anti-war, and why or why not a country should go to war, perhaps no one remembers what happened many years ago? Personally, I'm somewhat anti-war, but not to an extreme. Some wars cannot be avoided, such as a "little" war called World War II. It's kind have an insult to say all wars are needless to those who lost their lives to ensure freedom. There wasn't a way to stop this war either. Neville Chamberlain tried; he even had Hitler sign a piece of paper that "ensured peace". It meant nothing in the end when Hitler began invading Eastern Europe. I don't believe all wars can be avoided when people will simply take something they want. If a country is going to war, they're going to need a great reason to go. The U.S. has interfered a little too much since the end of W.W. II. Even then in Korea, and the Gulf War, the U.S. helped keep freedom in countries that risked losing that. Perhaps they should have just been ignored while they lost their freedom? Sure some wars could have, and probably should have been avoided. But there have been times in the past when war had to happen. Being anti-war is fine, but it's not always a realistic choice...

The "U.N." doesn't make it self out to be a war solver. "The League of Nations" tried that but it didn't work...

I don't think there's any clips on this site, but it's a pretty good "Limblifter" fansite in my opinion, limblifter.imgarbage.com... -
I really enjoyed the first part of the mini-series. I'm hoping I like the second part as much too.

In the movie he was the security guard they had watching Uma Thurman's character to make sure she didn't go to the cafe to meet Ben Affleck's character, so it was a small part I guess... In case you're reffering to who he was in "Due South" he played "Ray Kowalski" who was undercover as "Ray Vecchio" in the the third and fourth seasons... -

Does anyone have the "Limblifter" live bootlegs that are supposed to be on the hub? And if so can you send them my way? -
