You know what, if Israel feels threatened by them then let them fight. They have planes and they have the bomb. I think they've shown that when they feel an immediacy to act they do so.

In reality, of course not flip. But the situation is tricky when a corporation's failure might lead to massive financial consequences. These banks should never have been allowed to act the way they did...another problem with deregulation or regulation without any teeth.

May I ask you to devise another formula...
Perhaps one where you explain how a family that makes 30k a year can support said family and still find money to "invest"? I think that's the formula that many people would like.

Hey woodchip, I'd just like to remind you that the Status of Forces Agreement, signed by Bush and Maliki, called for the troops to be withdrawn by 2012. Obama is merely following the pact that was signed by the former President.
