    LoteTree
    I believe you live in UK and must be watching BBC but when you said you don't watch BBC than I guessed you might be watching CNN or Fox. Now you say that you don't watch BBC CNN or Fox than I have no idea from where you are getting this misinformation from.

    I have lived under dictatorship and now I choose to live in a democracy. My information comes from experience. With a login id of KGB I am sure you have been brought up with a daily diet of PRAVDA as your information source! So you probably know the TRUTH don't you!.

    Democracy is not the govement by the people for the people this is only the "Sologan". The democracy is the rule of the rich, democracy is the to implement the rules and regulations which benefits big "Corporations".

    These big corporations invest hundreds of millions dollars in each ellection to make sure they will get the billed passed which will make them more rich, these corporations work with Congress and Senate with their interest groups to make sure that their interests are well guarded.

    If you think that is the case then in a DEMOCRACY you can work to change it. So work to change that!

    Keep living under the sologan "Government by the People for the People" and be happy that you have the control on your elected leaders. I am intelligent enough not to fall for the deceptions.

    No, I think you are not intelligent. If you are intelligent then you would not easily bow down to a dictator and be forced to lick his backside only because he wants you to.

    And if don't do as the dictator says then I am sure you will very be happy to be sent through a industrial shredder machine in one of saddams torture chambers or perhaps be cooked in one of Edi Amin's cooking pot - and I am sure he will enjoy that feast!

    I see democracy for what it is. It is a evolutionary product borne out of human experiences of the past and therefore serves humanity best. Democracy is not perfect and is indeed flawed. But we can work to make democracy better...

    Regards,

        LoteTree

        I can understand now why MQuran was so irritated and annoyed because you don't want to see the other point of view. All the Saddam allegations which are more lies than truth you keep repeating them.

        There is nothing wrong reading PRAVDA news.

        You want me to change the democracy? You must be 13 year old kid who think that he can change the system. You live in imaginary world and see the things from popular point of view. Me I analyze everything to come to an conclusion.

        MQuran is a wise person and I am following him by quiting this endless senseless discussion.

          Attention Moderators

          Is LoteTree allowed to suggest me kissing dictators ass? I can be more be more harsh if this is permissible.

              Noah thank you my friend.

              LoteTree you are sorry case of inferiority complex. You decided to stick with the popular propanda of your elected government to be considered "Cool" and to hide your inferiority complex.

              I suggest you go and do some reading before jumping into discussions related to world policies and systems. Broaden your view. This also goes for Jaxal. There is nothing wrong if you do not support the popular issues just for you information.

                I received following email from Howard Dean's Democracy For America

                The Bible tells us "thou shall not kill." And we consider it a key value to live by. It's a shame that Rev. Pat Robertson, self-appointed leader of America's so-called Christian right, does not.

                Robertson's fatwah, calling for the assassination of the president of Venezuela -- in the name of keeping access to a "huge pool of oil," among other excuses -- exposed the warped values of many religious radicals with the ear of the president of the United States.

                From efforts to squelch the teaching of sound science in our schools, to the "Justice Sunday" rallies trying to impose religion on the courts, to the quixotic jihad against SpongeBob SquarePants, fundamentalist power grabs make the news and have a huge impact.

                But they don't have the teachings of any religion we know of -- and they don't have us. That's why we're sending Robertson a message "Thou shall not kill." Join your voice with ours, and we'll print your name in Robertson's local daily newspaper

                http//www.democracyforamerica.com/robertson

                Even Donald Rumsfeld -- a man we hardly ever agree with -- had the sense to play down the statement. "Certainly it's against the law," he told the press. "Our department doesn't do that type of thing."

                But this calls for more than an offhand comment, because the allegiance that Republicans owe to Robertson and his Christian Coalition allies lets them influence the Bush agenda. Bush and company need to condemn Robertson's outrageous statement.

                Rather than wait on the White House though, we'll set an example we'll reject Robertson ourselves. Join Americans across the land in telling Robertson it's time he learned to love his neighbor as himself

                http//www.democracyforamerica.com/robertson

                Your feedback -- and your name -- will go into an ad in the Virginian-Pilot, the Norfolk area's leading newspaper. We'll put you on record with thousands of Americans rightly -- and righteously -- angry that Robertson keeps twisting our values to serve his petty political agenda.

                "I don't want to listen to the fundamentalist preachers anymore," Howard Dean once told us. We don't have to.

                Thank you,
                Jim Dean
                Chair, Democracy for America

                  No such thing meant personally. I wanted to imply that no intelligent human being will easily allow themselves to be humiliated by a dictator. But if it offends you then I take back that sentence and offer this instead If you are intelligent then you would not bow down so easily to a dictator and allow yourself be humiliated.

                      And I suggest you read something more than PRAVDA and incase you have not noticed, Soviet Union and Communism is dead!

                                    Lies? So people of Falubja inhaled nerve gas accidently did they?

                                    There is nothing wrong reading PRAVDA news.

                                    You had no choice if you lived in the Soviet Union. But wake up chap Soviet Union is no more.

                                    You want me to change the democracy? You must be 13 year old kid who think that he can change the system. You live in imaginary world and see the things from popular point of view.

                                    A 13 year old? Blimey, hum that was a while ago...lets see. Remember that french teacher at school. Lovely blue eyes, long slender features, full lips...and very nice... erm..oops sorry. You brought back memories chap! -)

                                    We can all do our bit to change the way democracy serves us as a society.

                                    Me I analyze everything to come to an conclusion.

                                    Reading PRAVDA and reaching conclusions is not doing much!

                                    MQuran is a wise person and I am following him by quiting this endless senseless discussion.

                                    Yes, you like following others don't you? The sheep baabaa-ing to its master. Be your own person. Be an individual.

                                    And you have not offered anything for discussion only parrotted "democracy is bad, democracy is bad".

                                      Kgb, forget it. Lote tree is not interrested in any fruitfull debate. Most of us have been lured into this clap trap, i hope my question being repeated 3 times and still unanswered is proof enough of that.

                                      Lote tree cannot think outside the box. That is why the question pose such a threat to him. It has to be either or, it has to be them or us. it has to be black or white. it has to etc.. neuances just doesnt excists in his world.

                                      Peace

                                        LoteTree you are an excellent example of stupidity and a complete idiot. Yes it is better not to talk to people like you in future who do not have intelligence to understand a single word of all my previous posts.

                                          Hello Noah,

                                          Lote tree, is there a reason that youre not answering my question?

                                          Lote tree, if you dont want to speak to me i fully understand so, that would be my own fault. Just let me know so, Jazak Allah khein.

                                          If thats not the problem. then please answer my question.

                                          Gosh! I am in such demand! -)

                                          the question for lote tree is Lote tree...why are there only 2 options in your worldview?

                                          2 options in my world view? Really?
                                          I am a poet chap I am used to exploring all views.
                                          That is what all poets do. It is in their nature to look at all views.

                                          But I asked you before - what you have in the place of democracy?
                                          and you said without hesitation THEOCRACY!
                                          Ayman and myself have shown you the absurdity of THEOCRACY and I have shown you the vileness of DICTATORSHIPS. So I have explored other world views!

                                          DEMOCRACY is government by the People for the People. And it is such a Noble Idea. DICTATORSHIPS FORCES us into becoming unwilling SUBJECTS, SERVANTS and SLAVES. DICTATORSHIPS undermines our very human dignity!

                                          But democracy is not perfect and is indeed flawed but we can work to make it better...

                                          You are young Noah, you are learning. Perhaps one day you will realise how important it is to live with dignity and not be forced to bow down to a DICTATOR and be forced to massage his EGO, only because he wants you to.

                                          Lote tree cannot think outside the box.

                                          I could say Noah you cannot think outside of the Scripture.

                                          That is why the question pose such a threat to him.

                                          Your question is no threat. I thought I answered your questions in the "ABSURDITY OF THEOCRACY?" thread. And Also I did not want to upset you again. You have been ill and all that. I don't want to go into a heated debate with you again.

                                          Thanks.

                                          Regards,
