Strange how you never make sense or seem to have anything to say other than defend Pam. You always seem to appear after Pam has been involved in disagreements with people. Hmmm.......could you be one and the same. Something to ponder. :ugeek:

Proving once again that AmyLee is right. All you ever have to add are silly snipes or insults.

Says the kettle to the pot..........

If all this bothers you so much why do you keep coming back for more? I'm beginning to think that you really enjoy these little skirmishes or something. Strange. Well at least you've managed to keep the "woman card" out of this, so for that I applaud you. Good for you Pam. You have made some progress. Next we will work on when it is appropriate for you to give one of your self righteous opinions and when it is not. Keep up the solid effort.

Cheers and Happy Thanksgiving,

Bob

This is what terror is. Killing law enforcement and politicians is meant to cause so much terror among them that they can't or won't fight back. Mexico needs to ask the U.S. for help in combating these terrorist and have the U.S. private military sent here to cause the gangs a little terror. I think the old Blackwater crew could finish off some drug cartels pretty fast.

Pam some times your thinking has no reason, we go into liberate the Iraqi people from a tyrant (Saddam Hussein) that killed thousands and you Bitched about GWB sending troops in to stop it, and now over 35 deaths you want to send in the Calvary, please make up your mind.

How funny is this? As ignorant people you are so fascinated with strong personalities you can’t control yourselves. I’m sorry but “peedro” stinks and this is not the eighteen hundreds. But by all means have your dreams.

We helped Hussein to kill his own people. We gave him chemical and other weapons and we didn't care who Hussein killed. Sending help in any form to a country so that it can defend itself against a criminal faction that is undermining its stability is different than invading it.

Quote:

While the August 18 NYT article added new details about the extent of US military collaboration with Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein during Iraq's 1980-88 war with Iran, it omitted the most outrageous aspect of the scandal: not only did Washington turn a blind-eye to the Hussein regime's repeated use of chemical weapons against Iranian soldiers and Iraq's Kurdish minority, but the US helped Iraq develop its chemical, biological and nuclear weapons programs.

Quote:

Washington immediately began to “cast about for ways to undermine or overthrow the Iranian revolution, or make up for the loss of the Shah. Hussein's regime put up its hand. On September 22, 1980, Iraq launched an invasion of Iran. Throughout the bloody eight-year-long war — which cost at least 1 million lives — Washington backed Iraq.

As a 1990 report prepared for the Pentagon by the Strategic Studies Institute of the US War College admitted: “Throughout the [Iran-Iraq] war the United States practised a fairly benign policy toward Iraq… [Washington and Baghdad] wanted to restore the status quo ante … that prevailed before [the 1979 Iranian revolution] began threatening the regional balance of power. Khomeini's revolutionary appeal was anathema to both Baghdad and Washington; hence they wanted to get rid of him. United by a common interest … the [US] began to actively assist Iraq.”

I can see what Sparks means in his earlier post on another thread. The children are at it again. Interesting how a discussion can degenerate into a mud-slinging match. Like C-Bob said... "Wow" Lizzy

Another 9 attributable to La Familia. They seem to be making a big push in Guerrero right now:

ACAPULCO, Mexico (AP) - Police have found the decapitated bodies of nine men inside a pickup truck abandoned on a highway in the drug-plagued Mexican state of Guerrero.
The Guerrero state Public Safety Department says that the bodies and severed heads were found inside 18 plastic bags left on the bed of the pickup truck that was blocking a highway in the town of Tlapehuala.
It says in a statement Friday that police also found a threatening message signed by La Familia drug cartel.
Guerrero is experiencing a wave of violent crime linked to drug trafficking that authorities say is part of battle between La Familia and other drug cartels for control of drug routes in the Pacific coast state.

Mexico's drug war brings lethal boom for lawyers.

"Bulletproof Lawyer" Monterrey's Silvia Raquenel Villanueva – a sharp-tongued yet matronly figure known for her combative courtroom tactics – had survived four previous attempts on her life before she was cornered by three gunmen and shot dead while out shopping earlier this year.

Later that same month another leading defence lawyer was knifed to death outside his office in Toluca, a city near Mexico City. Americo Delgado, 81, had represented a string of high-profile defendants, including the former Tijuana cartel boss Benjamin Arellano Felix. At the time of his death his clients also included Alfredo Beltran Leyva – a former associate, now bitter enemy, of Mexico's most-wanted trafficker, Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán.

In September a lawyer from Guzmán's drug-riddled home state of Sinaloa was shot in an argument. Jesus Peinado, who had survived at least one attempt on his life before, was rushed to hospital with two bullets in his front, two in his back, one in each leg and another in an arm. He is now convalescing at a secret location.

According to the local lawyers' federation, 10 lawyers have been killed in Sinaloa this year alone.

"The authorities arrest lots of people, and get confessions from torture," said Saúl Trejo, adding how he secured the release of six men he says the army framed for possession of 2.5 tonnes of cannabis and 16 assault rifles. "Any good lawyer can pick holes in lots of the cases they present."

Trejo insisted that he had nothing to fear. "I never charge more than $5,000 up front, I never guarantee to get anybody released, and I only deal with the relatives. The lawyers who die get killed because they get too close, they charge too much and they promise too much."
