POPSOn Suing The Enemy “It bears repeating that our opinion does not address the content of the law that governs petitioners’ detention. That is a matter yet to be determined.” Associate Justice Antonin Scalia, who is nothing if not plain-spoken, was his usual clear and precise self on this occasion, “The game of bait-and-switch that today’s opinion plays upon the Nation’s Commander in Chief will make the war harder on us. It will almost certainly cause more Americans to be killed.” And not just Americans, if Mr. Justice Scalia proves as prescient as he is plain. Already prisoners at Guantanamo who have had to be released have returned to attacking American troops and/or civilian targets, and had to be recaptured. Having again entered the maw of the American judicial system, who knows if they will ever face justice? That question, too, remains Yet To Be Determined.

POPStorture of Palestinians in Israeli prisons is the rule, not the exception Shame? Israeli Jews & and their supporters with an ounce of shame? They don't even know the definition of the word. The contradictions are obvious. These are the people stuffing sympathy down our throats around the clock about the brutal Nazis. These creatures are EXACTLY the same and even worse. My question is why should anyone feel sympathy for the profiteering alleged victims who, in the present hour, systematically perform the same torture rituals, justifying such barbaric acts with the same lame excuses?

POPSBizarre origins of wedding traditions "It used to be that after the bride and groom said, "I do," they were to go immediately into a nearby room and consummate the marriage. Obviously, to really make it official, there would need to be witnesses, which basically led to hordes of wedding guests crowding around the bed, pushing and shoving to get a good view and hopefully to get their hands on a lucky piece of the bride's dress as it was ripped from her body. Sometimes the greedy guests helped get the process going by grabbing at the bride's dress as she walked by, hoping for a few threads of good fortune. In time, it seems, people realized that this was all a bit, well... creepy, and it was decided that for modesty's sake the bride could toss her bouquet as a diversion as she made her getaway and the groom could simply remove an item of the bride's undergarments and then toss it back outside to the waiting throngs to prove that he was about to, uh, seal the deal."

POPSWould Garlic Protect Us From the Courts? More insanity from Texas which seems to have more than its share. This superstitious stupidity really needs to end. This religious immunity from critical scrutiny has existed for too long. It's time to begin shinning a light on these barbaric practices practiced by this death cult.

POPSJudicial Barbarism Although I am an opponent of the death penalty, I think this was the wrong decision. Why? Because it enshrines barbarism in our legal system. By saying that the death penalty is not warranted unless the victim of the crime was also killed, the justices have defined our legal system as an instrument not of justice but of vengeance. Justice is the protection of the weak, and the assurance that wrongs, once committed, will not be repeated. Justice should not spring from vindictive passion, but instead from a love for all those in society. Our legals system is there to protect us from henious individuals who menace society, not to torture them for our own sadistic satisfaction. If we merely revisit their own crimes back on them, we are not just, but savage, not civilized but barbaric.

POPS7 Terrible Abuses Suffered By Women Around The World Barbaric - we have no right to call ourselves developed nations of the 21st century until such scourges are removed from the face of this earth forever and those guilty of these heinous crimes are severely punished. I ask what 'honor' do people speak of when they treat women so degradingly?!

POPSGaza students lose scholarships after Israel refuses visas Thanks to Israel again. I'm sure the Israel supporters get tired of hearing about what a rotten, barbaric state Israel is, but the one thing Israel or its people don't do is simply stop being so barbaric and terroristic. Israel cannot do this, because it is like an abusive alcoholic. Withdrawals from committing so much violence and cruelty would be rather painful.

POPSIsrael wants most fertile land and water in West Bank
What a surprise. Stealing. Always stealing. The cult started off stealing (just read your bible) and has been stealing and swindling ever since. They turn around and wonder why anyone in their right mind might not feel so good about the cult. Of course they know why people are piping mad, but they pretend to be dumb when it comes to human nature. They ration that in spite of treating Palestinians worse than Hitler treated Jews, that Palestinians should be in love with them. Most obvious is that they KNOW they live, breath and sleep on a bed of lies and the hope and pray the world believes their lies. The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth is that the State of israel is, in fact, one of the most cruel and barbaric regimes in the world today. That's the truth and no amount of their bullying and whining can change that fact. No amount of name-calling and invoke the the label of Nazi can change these facts. Israel is wrong and the world should recognize it openly and universa

POPSIsrael Urges UN to Stop Using the Word “Nakba” These creatures really have more nerve than god. Now they want to force the world to never even mention the crimes against humanity for which Zionists are - IN FACT - guilty. They've already sabotaged truth around the world, now they want to take their barbaric ruthlessness another step lower. If the world doesn't wake up to these people, they can kiss it goodbye.

POPSApology denied: Once we recognize their humanity, we've lost
some deep sarcasm here. continuing... Nothing drives this truth home quite as blatantly as America's mercenary army in Iraq, which is immune from prosecution under either Iraqi or U.S. law. And the baddest of the American privateers are the Blackwater guys, about whom a rival security contractor told Fortune magazine: "They always shoot first and ask questions later. When we're out in country, we often fear Blackwater more than the Iraqis." Back on Sept. 16, Blackwater personnel -- not for the first time -- convulsed the people to whom we are bringing democracy with an unprovoked shooting rampage. While providing security for a U.S. embassy mission, they opened fire in the crowded square. By the time they stopped, 17 Iraqis lay dead and another several dozen were wounded. These were just ordinary people going about their lives. No one had fired at the security team first, witnesses insisted. But apparently something spooked them, and when you're not accountable under any law, why

POPSTorture Inc. - America's Brutal Prisons Go to the site for the video. It's frightening to think this is going on in America. Check out the comments there too. There are lots of links and more info. It can be done, to clean up the corruption though. Hats off to James McDonough, who cleaned up the corruption at Florida's Department of Corrections. :) Drunken Orgies Tainted System

POPSJapan is a callous vandal - watch folks! There is no question that Japan has been "caught out" in its acts of barbaric and unenlightened whaling practices. Hence their reaction to the release of the graphic images. Japan prefers to drop a cloak over its operations and simply with uniform or misinform the public. It tries to lie its way using the guise of "research". Japanese trade needs to be targeted by World consumers. It starts with us all!

POPSThe Rocky Whaling Fleet Horror Show The whaling industry has no place in the 21st Century and certainly not in a sophisticated nation like Japan. Whaling is a primitive, cruel, economically senseless and barbaric practice. What is a major industrialized super power doing killing whales anyway? The only other people involved in this anachronistic bit of sadistic maritime madness are a few frustrated inbred Vikings in Northern Norway and the Danish Faeroe Islands. Even the Icelanders have seen fit to pack the harpoons away.

POPSThose Wacky Afghans The plaintiff's brother characterized this as "very unfair"? How about 12th Century barbaric? And make no mistake about it, there is a segment of the fundamentalists movement here in the states that would like nothing better than to institute Biblical law in the US. Get your stones ready. Read up on the latest statutes. Let the rocks fly.

POPSMoral Superiority And no one is saying that there aren't good people in the Arab World. There were good Germans and good Russians. But the society that they have built is abhorrent. And I think that one of the big reasons George W Bush is so hated today is that he has forced a lot of people to actually see the sickness that is Muslim society.

POPSIn The Thrall Of AIPAC Despite the beaming rhetoric, it's the same old, same old. IMO, the unquestioned alliance between Israel and the US are at the root of a lot of USA's problems. Until that alliance is addressed, what's going to change? Really? US foreign policy needs a COMPLETE overhaul. .. not just pretty words.
