Because the people of the area want to form their own government. Â It's been done by a lot of former republics, but because of oil interests the Russians ont want to let them go. Â This isnt about terrorism, this is about civil war. Â Its sad that the Russians have decided to paint it as a war on terror, because that is hardly what it is.<span id='postcolor'> I don't think that it is just oil, even if that is a factor. There is a bigger problem for the Russian government in leaving the conflict. Russia today is many states all with over strong local government, it can't afford to send the message out that terrorism and armed action is an option for Russian states. Just as Spain can't allow the Basque freedom though most people there want it; it would be a victory for the bomb and the bullet.

Accidents are sad but a soldier's job is a dangerous one, even in peacetime.

There are probably very few who don't. However, I don't think it's fair to suggest that they ALL stand behind the same tactic (ie. terrorism). That just ain't true. It even sounds a bit racist, doesn't it? <span id='postcolor'> I don't know that it is racist, merely misinformed. The fact is that terrorism is a PRODUCT OF OCCUPATION, not some act of malice from the Palestinians.

I think we need to come up with an effective way to divert large asteroids and such. Â But I dont think nuking it to oblivion is a practical idea.

Nuclear weapons are not the solution! I think we should just make more churches!

I really don't think a national anthem is neccessary, anyway I am really pleased to see a flag completed and agreed upon, and one that I influenced! I hope it will be distributed to ofp.info and such.
