Yes you did, and quite brilliantly in only three weeks. But for peacekeeping and nation-building Americans don't seem to be suited for. You should outsource that business - unfortunately nobody else wants to take that task. As to Iran, the idea of an gasoline import embargo is excellent. Together with an oil export embargo, it would surely stop them fooling around (with nukes as well as captured sailors) in weeks. Unfortunately Bush is not smart enough to try this.
Iran's Seizure of U.K. Sailors Heightens Risks of a U.S. Clash By Judy Mathewson and Janine Zacharia April 2 (Bloomberg) -- After years of patrolling in close quarters in the Persian Gulf, the Iranian and U.S. navies have learned how to leave each other alone; the same isn't true of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The Guard, a radical force with a chain of command separate from Iran's regular navy, sparked an international crisis by seizing 15 British sailors and marines on March 23. As the U.S. Navy stages its largest show of force in the Persian Gulf since 2003, the Guard's unpredictable behavior in those waters increases the likelihood that another incident might inflame the already tense international standoff. ``The Revolutionary Guard are interpreting their orders differently'' than the regular Iranian Navy, said Kenneth Pollack, a Middle East senior fellow at the Brookings Institution in Washington. Historically, Guard commanders and crews have been the ``most obnoxious,'' sailing directly at U.S. ships in high-stakes games of ``chicken,'' he said. http://bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aHwzbC0R1K_M&refer=home
I hope they aren't adding calcium to white rice. That would make it taste terrible. China is going to be building airliners. After the 70 seat airliner, they plan on building a 200 seater. It won't be long before Boeing and Airbus will have some real competition. And I haven't even mentioned the cars they are building...
It would be interesting to see what kind of propaganda you guys have to watch where you live. I doubt if you are getting anything near the truth as it is. Probably just a bunch of garbage for entertainment?
Yeah you Jew-hater, that clip sure represents Americans.... duh... Are you wearing your Nazi uniform by chance?...
That was really funny & sad at the same time, I wonder what % of people that have been asked these questions DID give correct answers.
'US ready to strike Iran on Good Friday' JERUSALEM POST STAFF AND AP Sunday April 1, 2007 The United States will be ready to launch a missile attack on Iran's nuclear facilities as soon as early this month, perhaps "from 4 a.m. until 4 p.m. on April 6," according to reports in the Russian media on Saturday. According to Russian intelligence sources, the reports said, the US has devised a plan to attack several targets in Iran, and an assault could be carried out by launching missiles from fighter jets and warships stationed in the Persian Gulf. Russian news agency RIA Novosti quoted a security official as saying, "Russian intelligence has information that the US Armed Forces stationed in the Persian Gulf have nearly completed preparations for a missile strike against Iranian territory." The Russian Defense Ministry rejected the claims of an imminent attack as "myths." There was no immediate response from Washington. The reports come as the Iranian chief of staff, Hassan Fayrouz Abadi, was quoted on Saturday by Iran's Fars news agency warning leaders of Arab countries that Israel plans to open a "suicidal attack" on its neighbors this summer, to "prevent the withdrawal of the US troops from Iraq and the area." "I warn the dear leaders and Muslim brothers in the neighboring countries of the occupied territories that this suicidal attack of the Zionists is threatening them," he said. The countries in danger, he said, were "Lebanon and Syria, and later Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia." Also on Saturday, Russia urged Britain and Teheran to resolve the dispute over 15 British sailors and marines captured by Iran last week, a local news agency reported. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mikhail Kamynin urged the two sides to provide the United Nations with their own assessments as to what happened and where exactly the detention occurred so that the body could conduct an independent probe. "We hope these actions will provide a foundation for the soonest possible resolution of the crisis," Kamynin was quoted as saying by the Interfax news agency. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad insisted that the captured British sailors and marines trespassed in Iranian waters and called world powers "arrogant" for failing to apologize, the country's official news agency reported. "The British occupier forces did trespass our waters. Our border guards detained them with skill and bravery. But arrogant powers, because of their arrogant and selfish spirit, are claiming otherwise," IRNA quoted Ahmadinejad as saying during a speech in the southeastern city of Andinmeshk. The European Union grappled with a double bind over Iran Saturday - the country's nuclear program and its seizure of the British troops - and reported no progress on either issue. A debate about Iran's nuclear ambitions had been scheduled as a key agenda item but "was overshadowed to a certain extent by the issue of the sailors and marines," German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said after hosting a two-day EU foreign ministers meeting in Bremen, Germany. The Foreign Ministry in Iran dismissed the EU's "biased and meddlesome" comments on the captured troops, saying the dispute solely involved the governments of Iran and Britain. Speaking to reporters in Bremen, British Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett urged Iran to resolve the crisis over the military personnel peacefully, saying London remains open to dialogue. "We encourage Iran to peacefully resolve this issue," she said. "We continue to express our willingness to engage in dialogue and discussions with Iran," she added. "That is very much in the best interest of our people and that is our foremost concern." "I think everyone regrets that this position has arisen," she said. "What we want is a way out of it."
Over 99.9% answered correctly. It took them over 8 months to find people who would answer wrong. And they had to be paid $$$... IF Americans are so dumb, then why are we the biggest, baddest-ass country on the planet Earth?.. America kicks ass. Like Toby Keith sang in his song: "We will put a boot in your ass"... (BTW, Iran is next to get a boot in their ass)...LOL...
