but israel is a zionist regime. You are deluded if you believe that those who target Israel are motivated by blind anti-semitism. When you and your ilk come to accept this, peace might have a chance.

I don't think that Western leaders/governments have any moral high ground when condemning terrorism. The West supports violent regimes in Arab nations, as it has done with Saddam in the 80s, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Pakistan and others now. The West has partaken in terrorism against civilians...

These things happen in warfare when soldiers are put into situations they don't know how to deal with. This definately doesn't excuse their actions, what they did was heinous and inexcuseable. The same deal happened in Vietnam with My Lai, etc. Ultimately, responsibility for any harm that...

Re: 2007 Federal Election - Coalition or Labor/Howard or Beazley? If Beazley manages to pull off a win, it will be due to either: a) higher interest rates, b) economic slowdown/WorkChoices backlash or c) further increased petrol prices. The man capitalises on failures or problems, and pretends...

I think that, inside the keyer's mind, they aren't thinking 'Look at this brand new Civic, I might just go and damage it to infuriate the owner', rather, 'If I wanted to, i could key this car, and then i could walk away like nothing has happened, never to be found out. What a rush.' It's a...

Firstly, Hezbollah's capture of Israeli soldiers was legitimate, as the soldiers violated Lebanese borders. Using words like 'steal' implies that Hezbollah sneakily jumped into Israel and grabbed soldiers, then ran back, which is simply untrue. The mainstream media has repeated this lie...

may as well make a contribution: 140 in an 'industrial area' in Botany. Watch out trucks!

The Mustang GT is a very cheap car in America for what it is (US$25K)... but by the time it gets here, with RHD conversion and associated compliance etc, it would be alot more obviously. There would be very few in the country at the moment. As for modifications, like anything it depends how...

Large wheels make them suck around bends??? Mercedes traditionally concentrates on comfort over driving dynamics, yes, but their latest products are apparently good at both, especially AMG models of course, going by Wheels roadtests. New-tech air suspension gives barges like the S-Class...

I believe they are also illegal to hang on your rear-view because of that reason.

Re: 2007 Federal Election - Coalition or Labor/Howard or Beazley? Spot on. Gillard is their only hope - with luck she'll beat Rudd to the position after Beazley loses. Until then, the more that Kim Beazley differentiates from the Liberal Party in terms of policy (as in AWA abolishment) the...

How could you possibly suggest that Mr Howard acted out of political self-interest and not a deep-seated belief in the democratic principles that so obviously guide him? ;-) Beazles is wheezing away as ever. Not much was heard from him during the whole debacle. The govt backbench is the only...

exact same thing happened to me - caught doing 57 in a school zone. It was my first speeding ticket but miraculously i only got a $75 fine (despite being 15+km/h over) and the copper even ignored the bald rear tyres! I don't even think i got points off.

Your financial ability to choose should not impede the ability of someone without that same ability to recieve a good standard of education, or recieve a good standard of health care. If funds are badly needed in some under-resourced, under-staffed public schools then it does not make sense to...

Mike Munro has just announced that 60 minutes reporter Richard Carleton has died after collapsing at a Beaconsfield press conference. I wasn't much of a fan of the guy but still it's shocking news. Your thoughts?

The Liberal Party represents quite a narrow sector of the population, and hence I don't believe it acts in the interests of the general public. Which would lead me to support the ALP, if it were not for it being close to indistinguishable in policy terms. Cynical, incompetent traitors to the...

There are apparently enormous reserves under Antarctica... but nations are bound by treaty not to start drilling/mining until at least 2058. And then there are the obvious ethical and environmental reasons... think of the penguins, people

It looks very good relative to BMW's efforts over the past 5 years but it has lost some of the simplicity, elegance and athleticism from the E46 - until i see one in the flesh i won't judge any further. But thank god it's escaped the taxi-style boot lid. I suppose the long flame-surfaced...

hi all, i'm paul and have been on red p's for a couple of months. Currently driving a 94 celica but considering a downgrade to an old 1.0L Charade or the like due to petrol prices. I consider myself a driving enthusiast primarily but still am passionate about all types of cars. My ultimate...
