"jonathan" made the phosphor on my monitor glow in such a way as to indicate that: I don't really care who, but bin Laden recently acquired Somalia ya know. We need to convince Nigeria to go finish the job and take Mogadishu. Or do it ourselves. Even if they're not involved, the fundamentalists need to pay a price for each of their attempted civilian mass-murders. Unfortunately, it seems that we're going to have to bomb Londonistan... Or the Brits are going to have to do some mass deportations (a disturbing number of British Muslims believe that the July 7th subway bombings were justified). There are no pretty solutions. |

Sector lower amid Calyon downgrades, higher oil futures Marke****ch - August 09, 2006 4:12 PM ET Related Quotes Symbol Last Chg AMR Trade 19.49 -0.80 CAL Trade 23.50 -0.71 LUV Trade 16.71 -0.19 NWACQ Trade 0.52 -0.02 RYAAY Trade 54.11 -0.39 Real time quote. NEW YORK (Marke****ch) -- Airline shares traded lower Wednesday as analysts slashed ratings on several carriers and crude-oil futures were back on the rise. The Amex Airline Index $XAL finished off 4% at 46.36 points. Calyon Securities analyst Ray Neidl cut ratings on both AMR Corp. (AMR) and Continental Airlines Inc. (CAL) to add from buy and lowered Southwest Airlines Co. (LUV) to neutral from add. "Our downgrade is due to a combination of seasonality patterns, uncertainties in the Middle East, surging fuel costs and deterioration of the industry environment," Neidl wrote in a research note. "Additionally, on a seasonal basis, we believe that most of the short-term good news is currently factored into the current stock prices." AMR shares shed 3.8% to close at $20.29 while Continental led all decliners in the group, down 7.4% at $24.21. Southwest gave up 2.9% to end at $16.90. Also lower was Ryanair Holdings Plc (RYAAY), Europe's largest low-cost airline. |

Fascism is a mixture of "left wing" and extreme violence. The nazis were National Socialists. National (We need to bomb someone) and Socialist (cosmic life-forms as "jonathan" says) Vaguely left wing, and concretely brutal: let's bomb someone. Yeah... Let's go bro... Let's KILL someone, let's DROP THE BOMBS Yeah... Happily is not the right mixture and the times are not the right times. The nationalists do not need to go getting the votes by speaking left wing. They speak right wing and it works. So, wanabees like jonathan aren't necessary in this troubled times. |

Before you get any more enthusiastic about this off topic thread, you might ask if the latest scare has any more basis in reality than red mercury http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/5176522.stm or ricin http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A49564-2005Apr13.html Stories like this one http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-1797955,00.html remind me of James Thurber's "intelligence is what the enemy uses" http://www.tep-online.info/fable/mongoose.htm And lay off the Brit-bashing. We have been on the receiving end of US citizens' support for terrorists for years. I don't recall seeing suggestions that we bomb Boston. http://members.lycos.co.uk/inac/arms.html |

You have a very serious problem with unassimilated Muslims who would just as soon kill you as look at you. Ignoring it won't make it go away. |

Now suddenly you make something new up and move the goalposts. It's really rather silly. Dave |

Then your memory is very poor. I remember the First Amendment. So I think he's right. You are right that the IRA managed to raise some money in the U.S., but I do think the authorities did put a stop to it in time. John Savard |
