Care packages for troops on duty overseas are not only needed, but are still the best way to 'thank you'.

Totalitarianism has been tried many times and it essentially fails because human beings will in all ways subvert a singular narrative that is imposed by force. The fates of the totalitarian states of the last century illustrate this. Authority, the power to dominate the minds and bodies of humanity, has solved this problem by creating and dispersing a deadly form of freedom. This deadly freedom, embedded in a mix of popular aspirations that are inherently conservative and ...

The United Nations, actually ruled by Arab and Third World dictatorships, fails in its duties. There is no distinction between aggressor and defender. The Democratic states are voted out and the rules are changed. Genocide is almost an internal affair of the respective states and terrorism is not considered as an aggressive deed, but as an action of a liberation group. The West is in danger and should step out of the United Nations.

Opposite to expectation, terrorists do not come from countries like Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia or Egypt. Facts show that Muslim immigrants carry out 86% of all major terrorist attacks; converts to Islam execute the remaining violence. The West must draw the necessary conclusions.

The UK workforce has hit the headlines a number of times in recent years for working behaviour - short lunches and regular overtime being two major issues - but it seems that the rewards for such behaviour is starting to trickle down to the UK employees from the employers. Government statistics recently released (http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=10 ) show that average earnings, excluding bonuses, have risen by 3.8 percent in the year to January 2006.

There is a long tradition in France of militancy when it comes to jobs or anything that impinges on the rights of workers.

Britain was in a similar situation in the 1980's with workers unions able to exert massive influence and control over the politics of the nation. Then came the now infamous 'Miners Strike' that changed the political landscape ...

With a Muslim society hating us, what will happen with the oil fields when the House of Saud falls and the extremists take over? Will the installations be destroyed? Will our oil supply stop?

Hezbollah, Hamas and al Queda ran up the clock, the clock struck one (Hezbollah) and the rest barely escaped with their lives. No it is not that simple but as analogies go it is not all that far from the truth.

How many Americans know what is really going on in the Middle East? Perhaps Americans are working and playing too hard to get the true picture. What is brewing there comes with no promise to remain over there. Global conflicts don?t remain over there anymore in our shrinking world.

Asking if there will ever be peace in the Middle East is not a hard question to answer. It does depend on who you ask and your knowledge of both history and the Bible.
