How many were killed by Atheists, or Anti-Religion Ideology, over the past 100 years? Or parking spaces ... http://www.mercurynews.com/crime-courts/ci_27504430/muslim-students-shooting-deaths-arose-from-parking-dispute |

Or parking spaces ... Of course. Whenever a Muslim kills someone, its because he is a terrorist, if its a non Muslim killing a Muslim, its because he is just a sad deranged individual who kills because of a parking space dispute. |

Or parking spaces ... How about taking religion out of the picture & see it for what they are: - Pointless & un-necessary deaths. One should die of old age, not by the angst of others. |

Or parking spaces ... No, only when they are shouting Allahu Akbar!, Banzai! or Jesus Christ! |

I think the point is being missed here, and that is that the 30,000 or so who support ISIS/IS are RADICAL EXTREMISTS, they are not the average Islam/Muslim person from the 1.6 Billion in the world who are peaceable. Thats very true. But the number of how many support ISIS/IS are probably an underestimation done by CIA. Islamic militants have army of 200,000, claims senior Kurdish leader. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/war-with-isis-islamic-militants-have-army-of-200000-claims-kurdish-leader-9863418.html |

I think we really need to worry about each other rather than ISIS. |

Well as far as the CIA goes, I dont belive a word they say or print. They have an agenda that would make honest people puke. And to think they evolved out of the O.S.S.. The O.S.S. was trained by the Brittish S.A.S. What the hell went wrong? [/quote] Old James |

What the hell went wrong? Politicians imposed agendas none of which have been revoked. |

If you lead an honest life what dirt can they dig up? None, But I bet the CIA can make some up! [/quote] Old James |

Question: How do Public Officials, Judges, et al, 'take on' Agency's, such as this. They do have all the dirt on them. I dont think they have dirt on everyone. The thing is, how can officials regulate and check on an agency that is so secretive? In order to address a problem you first need to know there is a problem. This is why I don't like intelligence agencies in general, the checks and balances we imposed on them don't work, because we rely on them telling us everything they do so we can tell them that they are doing a good or a bad job. But what, other than whistleblowers, stops them from lying to our face about what they are doing? The fact that for example the whole Snowden scandal came out of nowhere for lots of people just proves how badly informed the people that are supposed to check our intelligence agencies are. Hell, after the whole PRISM thing came out it turns out that the head of the NSA had been lying, literally lying, about what the NSA was doing. |

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=75775&postid=1633553#1633553 @Chris, it does depend on who runs the prison ... After you read these 3 articles, you will have a better understanding of jail in America. It is unlike the EU. http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2015/2/16/many-sex-offenders-killed-in-california-prison.html California state prisoners are killed at a rate that is double the national average, and sex offenders account for a disproportionate number of victims, according to an Associated Press analysis of corrections records. http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2015/2/12/more-incarceration-wont-bring-down-crime-says-new-study.html America’s crime rate has been falling steadily ever since the 1990s, and social scientists have spent years trying to figure out why. A new study from New York University Law School’s Brennan Center for Justice offers no definitive answers, but it does claim to rule out one explanation as the driving factor: mass incarceration. http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2015/2/11/jails-house-the-poor-and-mentally-ill-report-says.html Jails have become warehouses for poor and mentally ill people who are unable to post bail for minor infractions such as parking violations or shoplifting, according to a report published Wednesday by the Vera Institute of Justice. |

Return of the Barbary Pirates Holidays in the Med anyone? The Difference between ISIS... ...& those that fought them "Mess: Despite the militants having brought rape and massacre to the local population and leaving the once-bustling ancient city as little more than rubble-strewn ruins, the Kurds insist on giving dead ISIS fighters a proper burial wherever possible." |

Turkey decides to act Yes. The borders of Syria, Turkey, Iraq and Iran was redrawn by Britain in the 30's. Oops Kurdistan disappeared. That Turkey decides to act now is mostly because of the refugees coming into Turkey from the region are too much. But Turkey also has some dark sides in political matters. Their work for humanity. They evacuate a tomb but letting bombs fall over their so called "brothers" the kurds. |

Naw, it was to rescue the bones of someone long dead, the present has no appeal for them. |
