I can only urge australia not to bring more violence upon us... Isis has it's debts, but they are not to us.. We should not repay their violence in kind..
There really is no need to get involved now Whatever degradation and destruction you regrettably might've wished for, is already self-inflicted in any case... Leave them in their mess, it seems we have our own..
Surveillance amounts to a stealthy form of passive interrogation?
Mass Interrogation tells me that the presumption of innocence is dead... It is no longer enough to simply have no evidence, you must have mountains of evidence of innocence.. And that is still not enough to prevent you from checking again tomorrow...
It's really quite sad that you would even consider vilifying the most moderate in our community... Anti-invasion is not Pro-terror
You should know that attacking only plays straight into this `death-cults` hand... I'm sure that they can muster some silly rhetoric for us not attacking, but that will happen for whatever we do... Most certainly they are expecting an attack to occur, no suprises there.. Let them goad us for not attacking, and let the death-cultiness shine ^^
But seriously, we must've done something to earn a special mention... probably around the '01-'06 mark..
I think a solid reconsideration of our alliances might be in order.. Can you honestly tell me there were no hidden agendas for going into the middle east to begin with, for all parties involved?
+30,000 lives over x years, plus the monetary cost... Maybe this isn't a mess we can actually even fix..?
Your Heart is not in the middle east, it never was.. It was always going to be a half-assed job at best, no matter how much the soldiers sweat.. Some things take more than that
Conflict of interest time... You take australian taxes, buy american weapons, to fight an american war, with aussie soldiers... America will only lead you to war, have you forgotten they are only the world leader in terms of arms production? This is as much a live action weapon advertisement as it is a war...
There is a consensus that preventive war "goes beyond what is acceptable in international law"[5] and lacks legal basis.[6] While the UN High Level Panel on Threats, Challenges and Change stopped short of rejecting the concept outright, it suggested that there is no right to preventive war.
During the course of the destructive and costly World War I, for the first time in history, the concept of the "War to end all wars," began to be seriously considered.[8] As a further expression of this hope, upon the conclusion of the war, the League of Nations (LON) was formed. The primary aim of this organization was to prevent war, as all signatories were required to agree to desist from the initiation of all wars, (preemptive or otherwise). All of the victorious nations emerging out of World War I eventually signed this agreement, with the notable exception of the United States.[9]
Subliminal research goes back to the early 1950s in both auditory and visual systems. A search of abstracts in professional journals indicates that over 150 articles and studies on subliminal messaging have been published. Originally, those interested in this subject desired to effect other people's behavior without their knowledge.
A great amount of experimental Work has been conducted in order to conclusively establish the fact that the foregoing two levels of response do exist. In carrying out these experiments, various types of apparatus as well las various media of application, were used. For example, the novel method can be carried out by means of the tachistoscope, television, motion pictures, magic lantern devices, controlled flash procedures used with signs, controlled temporal increase and decrease of brilliance of a sign, and/or combinations of the foregoing with appropriate auditory stimulation, e.g., radio, telephone and phonograph.
The above noted media can be used in various fields of endeavor. As will be appreciated from a more complete consideration of the invention, among the fields to which the said invention is best applied, are (l) medicine, psychiatry and psychology (as a diagnostic and theraeputic tool); (2) education (as an aid in teaching at all levels and, in particular, as a rehabilitative auxiliary in, for example, juvenile delinquency); (3) advertising and marketing (as point of sale advertising technique and as mass advertising process); (4) propaganda and psychological warfare (conditioning civilian and military per- Patented Oct. 11, 1966 ICC sonnel, enemy aliens, prisoners of war, or opposing forces or civilian population) and to counter brainwashing; and (5) enhancement of motion pictures.
