Gustave, your response was cute. A little infantile, but cute. You still haven't answered why you post hate messages on a daily basis. Of course, you probably don't know why. You just do it because you have been bred on hatred towards others. You've stated that you are an Atheist. You say that you believe in nothing. I disagree. You believe in hate. That is your god. Your communion is the blood and misery of innocents.

You still bet on Islamofascists and Eurotrash? news.bbc.co.uk President Bush is already coming under increasing pressure from the enormously influential supporters of Israel within the United States. The President's core constituency of right-wing conservatives, fundamentalist Christians, and hardline supporters of the war on terror, are all deeply uneasy about any criticism of Israel for what they see as a legitimate anti-terrorist operation. All of this will be in Mr Powell's mind as he heads into the lion's den at the weekend for perhaps the toughest task of his career - persuading Mr Sharon and Mr Arafat it is time for a ceasefire.

Gus you agree that Koran waving, protesting crowds remind of Chairman Mao Red Book times? islandnet.com Within a few months, the zeal and dogmatism of the Red Guards caused the movement to break apart into hundreds of factions. These factions would combine with and against the worker/peasant groups in a constantly-shifting kaleidoscope for the next two years. For every dogma there is a heresy, an 'enemy within', and it soon came to light that some worker/peasant groups and Red Guard factions had in fact been created by lower-level Party and government figures to defend themselves from the radicals. For example, in at least one instance, a minister engineered a fake 'power seizure' in his own ministry with a decoy radical group composed of people loyal to himself. The hunt for these hidden enemies, who 'waved the Red Banner to beat down the Red Banner', along with the increasingly complex faction fights, contributed to the general atmosphere of chaos and violence that prevailed in China by the end of 1966. In many cities, local PLA commanders had had to take over the running of transportation, food collection and distribution networks, and the policing of the cities due to so many functionaries being yanked out of office.
