Are people really surprised that Clinton would lie about infidelity? Dyxlexia is endemic. Even John can't spel his name. Not many innocents here. Ramsey, they've all gone mad here. Don't blame me for wall to wall politics unrelated to Qualcomm. Mine was nearly always Q-related. So, my 2 cents: Anyone heard of Northern Ireland? Did you know that vicious thug Adams went fund raising in the USA and the saps there funded him heaps? There was a bombing in Omagh last week. USA sponsored. Well done Irish-American/Catholic chaps. Killed 28 and injured a couple of hundred. Political assassination - the IRA blew up the Brighton Hotel and nearly got the Prime Minister and Cabinet members. Did get heaps. Killed Mountbatten another time. Blew up a tourist family of New Zealand children in the Tower of London. Digusting, vicious, criminal thugs. Individual rights a great and glorious western tradition? Where? Maybe compared with many places, but on an absolute scale near zero. Why, even the President of the United States had to skive around to avoid the draft. Operation Tailwind wasn't a picnic - it was an invasion of another country. Cassius Clay didn't got no quarrel with no Vietcong who never called him a nigger. 'Jail the bastard' said they! Individual rights in the USA, NZ or The West - you must be joking. How many individual rights were bombed by USA in Sudan? Did the CIA ensure all innocent individuals were out of danger? Of course not. They are called collateral damage; Aliens and Gook individuals don't have the delicate pain receptors of Red-Blooded Americans. The Nazis used to kill male townsfolk where resistance people did damage to them - collective village responsibility was very popular. Lt Calley's gang and My Lai - not for him men only. Milosevic is still doing it. Since people in the USA sponsored a terrorist attack on New Zealand citizens in the Tower of London would you all suggest NZ bomb some USA interests? We'd try not to cause too much 'collateral damage'. The Tower attack was similar to some people in Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Sudan etc sponsoring an attack on USA citizens in the embassy in Kenya don't you think? The USA even allowed terrorist Adams into the USA to drum up funds. The French terrorist state of Mitterand has already experienced Champs Elysse bombs, perhaps in retribution for bombing a boat in my Auckland harbour and murdering somebody. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Soon we will all be blind and toothless. Mqurice PS: Meanwhile, back in the jungle, Q.com way down again with the market worries. See Ramsey - everyone over-reacting to some speculative property 'investors' and bankers going bust in Asia. As predicted going on a year ago now. No worries. All's well and cell phones are selling like hot cakes everywhere.

Renby - ****OT***** IMHO you paint an accurate desription of the broad picture concerning the fanatics. They aren't waiting for a nuclear device however having opted some time ago for the much cheaper, more easily produced and equally if not more deadly either chemical or biological devices ( or even a combined one). Such devices can be carried in a briefcase and released in a vulnearable population center are capable of causing 100,000+ fatalities. That is what these guys are after and they actually believe they have consent of their god to do it. As I said yesterday we are at war and that war has to do with a clash of civilizations plain and simple. One, our one has delivered a reasonable standard of living for our people and the other one has brought nothing but poverty and frustration to the vast majority of its adherents from the Atlantic ocean to Indonesia. We didn't ask for it and its not our fault that their civilization is bankrupt and has failed in the march compared with our and other civilizations. But they attacked us and they have declared war on us and they have declared their intention to kill us. War is the most unpleasant condition that we can face as human beings but we have to respond in kind as in the past and in the end we will prevail. Clearly though this war has potential to result in more deaths than WWII, and I don't just mean because of the NCB weapons, but because it is a war of philosophies rather than a war of countries. What a time to be thinking about the markets but I suppose tomorrow morning we'll all be focused on Wall St again and hopefully the above worries will just go away somehow. Regards, L
