Je parle, oui. Pourquoi perdez vous le temps avec Afeni?

I think you will find this a little more useful. . .

Try downloading the now discontinued touchnet browser, It's still found here:

One of these links should work, Touchnet has a function where it can automatically put you through a proxy (you just have to click on update proxy list from tools->ip tools (or something like that), and it gets a list of proxies, try 'em out, it can even rotate them every few seconds, if you want,

Oh, and if you're having trouble with serial #s and whatnot, mail me,

Yes. As a matter of fact, I thrive on pressure. . .

Vous parlez Francais Retro? Pouvons nous avoir un aller ?

You go know my brother, no be FGCE94 you dey?

Yes it is possible to love a woman and cheat on her. That doesn't mean that it should be done. As men we have this inherent weakness though that makes us fall easily, and a lot of women know this and exploit it.

The best way to avoid falling is to avoid compromising situations.

Maybe I could die for Naija. Depending on the situation.

But to be frank, it would be pretty difficult for one to lay down one's life for Naija as it is currently constituted and run, when you know that if you die for the country that you will be forgotten.

But if things such as this continue to happen, we will slowly develop a sense of national pride. And it is national pride that gives people the zeal to consider making the supreme sacrifice for their country.

My dear man, you are also on the thrid rock from the Sun. . .

Let me educate you a little: A planet is generally considered to be a relatively large mass of aggegated matter in orbit around a star. In geological terms, aggregated matter is generally considered to be a rock.

There are 9 rocks in orbit around our star (Sol), in order: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Some schools of thought suggest that there is a 10th rock called Charon, but this is still under debate.

According to that list, Earth is number. . .

Any questions?

Think about this: at entry level, a policeman earns N8500 a month. From this amount, he is expected to buy his torch, maintain his boots, feed his family, and survive. Then he is given a gun. . .

Taking sides in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a tough thing to do. While it might be easy for those who are fed by American mainstream media reports to believe that Israel is right and the Palestinians wrong, the truth is much deeper.

The problem in the Middle East persists because since the State of Israel was violently created in 1948--largely by the efforts of the United States and Great Britain--the voiceless predominantly Arab Palestinians have had no where to turn to. Many of these Palestinians were forcibly removed from their homes—an act driven by a pseudo-religious belief that Palestine was the God-promised ancestral homeland of the Jews.

There were Jewish terrorist organizations, which worked with Zionists to see that as much Arabs as possible were driven away from Palestine, while Jews all over the world were invited to return. And in 1948, Israel was created. This Israel had the character of a Jewish State and an Arab minority.

Isn't it logical that most Arab governments, embittered by what happened in Palestine, chose not to recognize the State of Israel? Some have described the creation of Israel in Palestine as the worst blunder of the latter half of the twentieth century, for ever since it happened, that region has known no peace. But with American and British support, it appeared that Israel had come to stay. United Nations resolutions affirm its right to exist, a right which every modern nation states should respect.

All too often Israel is portrayed as a secular moderate republic by the mainstream American media, while Palestine is viewed as an aggressive and unsustainable state. In 1998, the then Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu came on CNN to clearly state that he did not believe in the creation of a Palestinian state. A large fraction of Netanyahu's Likud party (an extremist group in my opinion) holds a similar view, though according to this Wikipedia article, Ariel Sharon changed Likud's official policy with regard a Palestinian statehood.

However, it appears that even Sharon could not placate the more extreme members of Likud, which led him to create the Kadima party in late 2005. In other words, there is a powerful force in Israeli politics that is doing everything possible to see that Palestine never exists—contrary to United Nations resolutions. This force is the Israeli equivalent of Hamas and Hezbolla, the only difference being that it has American weapons to fight with and the American mainstream media is more sympathetic to its cause, making it appear morally superior.

While Israel preaches peace, it continues to flout United Nations resolutions by building settlements in the West Bank or Palestine if you prefer. Gaza, the most congested nation on earth is like a refugee camp. From the look of things, it is either that Israel doesn't want peace or that it is not willing to compromise. Before we can start talking about peace in the Middle East, Israel must cease all settlements in the West Bank and abide by outstanding United Nations resolutions. It must also dismantle the apartheid wall it is currently building, by which it covertly steals land from the Palestinians. A growing number of Arab countries have indicated their willingness to recognize Israel if it returns to the pre-1967 border.

Destroying the infrastructure of Lebanon isn't going to achieve much. It would surely not make Israel any safer. The disproportionate use of force in Lebanon clearly shows that this isn't about Hezbollah having captured two Israeli soldiers. From the look of things, support for Hezbollah has been on the increase in Lebanon since the bombing started, even amongst factions of Lebanon's 40% Christian population (who generally hold Hezbollah in contempt). Hezbollah isn't a political party per se that could easily be destroyed. It is like a movement, an ideology, formed in 1982 to drive Israeli forces out of Lebanon.

Israel is gradually driving itself into isolation on the international scene. For now, it does what it wants because the United States (the most powerful nation in the world) stands by its side. Fifty or sixty years from now, the tables may turn and Washington may have ceased dictating what goes on. All we hear from the United States now is that "Israel has a right to defend itself." Well, so do the Palestinians, a large part of whose land has been usurped by Israel. Until sanity and rationality are brought into resolving the surrounding issues, the fighting would go on and on. America may first have to lose its superpower status and its urge to control the world's oil resources for Middle East peace to be possible.

Erm, for those y'all who say all Northerners are dunces, Chippla is a Northerner. . .

Which of them, and why are you disappointed let us join minds. . .

Best? That is relative depending on where you are.

How are we going to do this?

By continent?

Africa --- Al-Ahly
Asia --- don't know, don't care
Americas (North and South) --- Boca
Europe --- Real Madrid

Any questions?

Based on what I saw on that list, I'd rather Okonjo, but it won't happen. I don't think the conservativeness of Naija would allow for a female president just yet. . .

Buchi, I have also travelled extensively in the Niger Delta, and while I agree whole-heartedly that the area has been criminally neglected, I want to place a large part of the blame suarely on the leaders of the region.

What justifies using money Shell gives you to build schools to marry new wives?

debosky you are 48 hours behind the rest of the planet. . .

About 60k a month

Apparently, we can't. . .

Who is talking of appeasment here?

Alex Cunninham showed more effective ways to remove an enemy's means and will to fight than either appeasment or devastation.

We will talk further later. Off for a meeting now.

Take home pay?

What is the point of this thread really? Knowing that Mobil pays highest doesn't make me a Mobil staff does it?

Realpolitik as canvassed by Machiavelli in Il Principe is what America has been practising for decades on the rest of the world, and probably on themselves as well. That IBB uses it doesn't make any difference. The main thing is that in IBB's shoes, I'd have done the same.

That is the honest truth.
