I was taught this lesson by a Jedi :yes: if you help someone when they're down - they'll never get the strength to pull themselves up. Of course, some aid is good for Iraq, but throwing money, medicine and food their way isn't the best way about it, they should work for it etc etc particularly because in situations of turmoil unemployment and crime goes through the roof.
at least Star Wars is educating people...... seems like US government is paying close attention to Hollywood sci-fi also, following the script well....
and now ...all the worst bits of the cheesiest science fiction writers ...all of them ...we couldn't take seriously 24hr survielance of an entire population ...an entire fucking planet! those bits of the story were a downer that no one would ever allow to happen ...plastic registerd and recorded spending .....GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!
you are all being assimilated and loving it!
and i'm going down with you all as a part time eco warrior and armchair critic...
GWB?
J?
GLOBE!!!!!!!!!!
:chin: I've never really thought about who's the head of it, tbh. Is there anyone at the head of it? Possibly George Lucas? You know Star Wars is also a missile program the americans have running to shoot down russian ballistic missiles (i.e. nukes)
becky will convince herself she's a nun ...i'll end up believing i am mr roll ...as for black arab and clandestine ...well the writers of those days didn't figure on people like them being around!
You might think there is nothing wrong with this on principle. But the consequences are dire for civilians (or collateral damage, as the US government prefers to see them). High-altitude bombings such as those in the former Yugoslavia caused hundreds of unnecessary civilian deaths- remember the bombing of a convoy of farmers and their families, travelling in open trucks and tractors :rolleyes: , resulting in the deaths of 80 old men, women and children? And all because US fighters were ordered to bomb targets from nearly 20,000ft, due to the miniscule possibility that they might lose a plane in a war.
The proposed 'shock and awe' bombing raids in Baghdad were designed with the same purpose in mind- obliterate anything from a safe distance, and civilians be fucked- lest a precious soldier's life is lost in a war.
So the next natural step is this- removing humans altogether from the battlefield and sending fucking robots instead. Robots which naturally won't distinguish between combatants and non-combatants, who will shoot unarmed and injured soldiers and who will continue to perpetrate the war crimes the US government has happily engaged in for the last few years.
so does this. :nervous:

Does life imitate art or art imitate life?
There are known unknowns. :thumb:
when the machines do all the killing ...there will be no need for war crimes courts!
or people :eek2:
Holy crap! Thats the scariest paragraph in the article...
What about the following one:
"The lawyers tell me there are no prohibitions against robots making life-or-death decisions," he said.
or this beauty:
Once robotic technology is developed, the Americans say, the cost of a robot soldier might be only 10 per cent that of its human counterpart.
How much is the human life worth these days and is there a student discount
It is perfectly feasible for a robot to cost a lot less..........
Only problem is, the only known way to generate a big enough EMPs is by detonating a nuclear device.
One more reason for countries across the globe to arm themselves with nukes and deter the US menace, then.
You really think that's a good idea? :chin:
Were the US to get rid of its governing junta and install a respectful government that didn't threaten, bully, bomb and invade countries everywhere, I'm sure most nations could not be bothered with the economic sanctions, the international isolation and the general hassle that they'd suffer by trying to acquire nuclear weapons.
