About The South Korea battle ship thingy: seriously, you say that it is an advanced and modern ship, so it should be able to detect all kinds of torpedo and submarines that the North Koreans can throw at you. Come on, let's face it, their ships and armaments are from the Cold War and a torpedo cannot exceed a certain range. Your supposedly advanced ship should had been able to detect the existance of North Korean submarines and the torpedos, and counter-acted. Also, I find the reaction by the US very funny. Obama said he "supported the investigation" instead of the usual reaction of screaming for sanctions and apology and everything. Something is very fishy........
About Thailand: From what I can see it is like a civial war going on there now, one group of armed people fighting against the government army with real guns and bullets and M79s........and setting buildings on fire (Shopping malls, TV stations, banks etc) is just simply the acts of rebels.

What better way to start the day then with some good old fashioned Miss USA controversy sparked by xenophobic blog comments that come courtesy of a Fox News contributor:
Just as an aside, why does it seem like every female anchor and guest on Fox News is a power dressing (usually attractive) blonde with lip gloss on? Please note that this is more of a rhetorical question than anything. Edit: A small update where Rima Fakih calls the comments by Debbie Schlussel hurtful Last edited by Kaioshin Sama; 2010-05-20 at 03:58. |

Although this "Draw Mohammed Day" is rather rude as an idea, the religious fanatics' response isn't helping their image either of making Islam look benevolent, nor make themselves look intelligent. Though it is funny that Iran or the Al-Qaeda hasn't made any response. And I would suggest that whoever started this make a public address to clear up the intentions of the "day". When a million idiots decry this as blasphemy, the million idiots are still citizens of their country, and their countries still needs to run each day. I find it rather interesting that their government, or even that Islamic organisation, aren't doing anything about the local economy or corruption, but rather, spending time on this kind of small issues.

But the South Koreans don't want a war with the North (namely because it'd be a mess and they'd have to manage a 4th world country afterwords) so the South Korean vessel probably is not on the hair trigger alert that it'd be in a wartime situation. So the North Korean ship could conceivably get close enough to the Korean ship to fire off torpedo's with there not being enough time for the South Korean ship to respond due to them perhaps being more lax than usual.

And I seriously doubt this is some kind of false flag incident if that's what you're implying. Quote:

To them, nation law <<<<<< religion. As long as religion didnt forbide, then all is "halal". Law can't even stop that. Even suicide bombers is hailed as heroes in some region of Indonesia. And guess what. Recently, a tax officer is captured for corruption. He uses some the corruption money for building mosque and sent some of his neighboorhood to Mekkah. For what? Just so his GOD won't give him divine judgement. And here's my personal experience. I've heard some sermon in mosque near my place that encourage all moslem people there to fight against the America and their ally. And they even curse Indonesian people that sided with Zionist bla bla. Not that i hate Islam. But i hate narrow minded people like that. Killing people for a place in heaven? Sadly, many still believe that fairy tale in Indonesia. |

Divine judgement or not, it is nonsensical to build another mosque when people out there are going hungry. These people may be religious, but they got their priorities all wrong.

I can't believe the utter UTTER irresponsibility of some people. You can criticize the Miss USA pageant for a lot of things. But when you start saying it is part of some conspiracy to elevate Islam, you should be locked up. That is a clear sign you have gone off your meds, and to keep your community safe, you should be LOCKED UP. |

That is possible when another Korean War is about to erupt and China wishes to help the DPRK. But when push comes to shove that China wants a peace agreement between the Koreas, they can always stop supplying them with weapons and vehicles. I guess the same goes for the Russians.
