Try typing "Drop the Debt" into Google and see what you get. I know Greenpeace and Oxfam were involved in the campaign.

Ahhh. There's an honestly unbiased source ;)


Plus, have you thought of what giving the money back'd do to us?

Tony bLiar would have to put up income tax by about 5p in the pound just to compensate!

Why act ethically? No one else seems to!

YAY CAPITALISM!! :D

I don't know why I suggested dropping third-world debt as I don't really support the idea anyway :(

Well, let's put it like this. We give money to the UN to pas on to Third World countries. They give the money back as interest on the debts.

Bit of a self-defeating cycle is it not?

Its not the resentment which lasts longer, its the effects of that fucked up meddling which still lingers. [/B]

The effects of helping defeat Hitler are quite long-lasting too.

True...but there won't be in the future and by then it will be too late to do any thing.

Don't believe that is true any more...well it's not disclosed as all labs had to destroy it which caused a storm due to small pox possibly containing some answers to other germs.

Upon reading the article, I felt a slight twinge of amusement.

The use of the phrase Hit n' Run in an accident where she did anything but run is genius.

Well, she kind of ran, just with the victim lodged in her windscreen. :/

that story scares me.
yet lets not forget a tiny wee thing here: there are 270odd million peeps in the usofa, how many generate strange stuff like that? on the other hand there shouldn't be any of that crap in the world at all imo. point being our countries have their own share of madmen, malingerers and morons [looks about] doing freaky evil things. it saddens me. however, I hasten to add that driving home with some poor sap lodged in ones windscreen and letting him die in ones garage without lifting a finger to help the poor bastard ranks pretty high on my "freaky evil things" list :/ and she was a nurse? christ!

Mallard's attorney, Mike Heiskell, said: "I think this is overreaching on the part of the prosecution and the police and, in the end, I believe the law will shake out that this was simply a case of failure to stop and render aid."

She didn't have to stop to render aid, COS HE WAS LODGED IN HER FUCKING WINDSCREEN DYING YOU WANKER.

Generally the whole world hates americans, even more so now, they are slowly losing the frienship of the european 'SUPER STATE'.

Hopefully soon they will be shunned like the annoying kid in class which no-one speaks too and then become a depressed and lonely wanker

Did you miss the whole September 11th fiasco? Not a country by all rights, but certainly someone felt up to messing with Lady America and the Cheeses of New York.

Going back to the Global Warming thing - it's a natural change in the earth's climate. It's happened before and it will happen again.

Ecologists piss me off - they don;t let anyone have any fun :( That's why my next car is going to be a gas guzzling V6 - and it's only cos I can't afford to run a V8.

Don't make me get all nerdy about climate change. It is not inevitable, and yes, it has happened before, but only due to extreme circumstances.

Any disagreement and I'll start using long words on you all.;)

but we are in a cooler period of earth's historie. The fact that distresses most people is that we like it the way it is.
