"There are three countries that oppose the banning of personel land mines, the US, China and Russia.
The major suppliers of land mines. Most of the world wants them banned. "


Well, now I know why the US won't ban land mines in an international treaty.
US business has a personal interest in selling them.

We know Ashcroft is a gun fanatic. I wonder if he is a big fan of land mines.
The press should send Ashcroft and Bush clips of kids getting blown up by
land mines in Afghanistan!!!!

"It's been a little over 100 days since Sept 11th [100 is a nice number to multiply by].

We lost 3,000 people roughly in the attacks on Sept 11th.

Sub-Sahara Africa has lost 5,500 people per day to AIDS, or 550,000 deaths.
The US still wants to protect the patents for pharmaceutical
companies. You think that Bush would care about foreign children and land mines?" JTMAB
