New Aftermath Information
It was pretty lame. It is basically the original Half-Life story, but from a Barneyesque viewpoint (hence the name). But the length is gimped, the gameplay nerfed and the enjoyment paled. But it's okay for a couple of hours.

A Thought on MMORPGs
Then I suspect you've never played one. There's that goofy intangible that I can't put my finger on that makes them appealing. I swore I would never subscribe to a game, but after playing the beta of WoW I was sold on it for a couple of months. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have. Veni, vidi, exeunt. I came, I saw, I left.

The U.N. is ridiculous, seriously ridiculous
Actually, UNICEF is communist, moreso than any other part of the organisation. This is sadly true. It seems a given condition of human nature, an unrepresentative organisation tneds to abuse the power invested in it. Look at the EU, they sacked every accountant whistle-blower who refused to sign off on the blatant corruption that in endemic in the the organisation: from how it awards contracts, to who receives a kickback. It's sickening, and arguably the real reason that the French and Dutch referrenda to approve the European Constitution were soundly defeated. It's a pity that life is immitating art; how soon before there are UNATCO troops on the streets of New York ... :ph34r: ... come back JC (Denton), all is forgiven!

Gaza Strip
I am also dismissing the corollory to your Gaza-born Jewish children hyposthesis: that the poor children born on the boat don't get the lottery of a birth country to use as an argument. Or, to put it in more real terms, what do the Palestinian children get for their trouble? Born in a ghetto, so stay there? It's just another unfair way to divide rather than unite. People working together should be encouraged: those that want to kill each other should all be put together and allowed to ...

Gaza Strip
It seems pretty fragile to me. I'm all for a demiliterised zone, so that no-one can live there (without surrendering all weapons).

Karl Urban was in Lord of the Rings... he played Eomer, he was also in The Bourne Supremacy as some Russian dude and I believe he made an appearance in The Chronicles of Riddick... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Correct. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Psst.

Iran, North Korea get a new partner
I think Canada should demonstrate an act of good will and disarm its nuclear arsenal. ... Canada's status as a nuclear state depends mostly on the definition. Canada cooperated extensively with the United States in the development and manufacture of nuclear weapons, and deployed hundreds of American warheads, but did not have an independent program. ...

The funny thing is that nuclear weapons are not the most dangerous weapon that all the UNSC members have. They all have enough biological agents to kill everyone. Including the US.

So? If I am born on a boat that sinks, does that mean I have to swim with the fish? I understood what you were saying, I just don't agree it's as important as you are making out.

Sssshh! It's there for all the little countries to think they have a higher authority to report the biggesr countries to. Bigger countries don't need to take it seriously, and therefore don't.

Gaza Strip
What about them? I don't see the point you are trying to make. Personally I don't see what all the fuss is about, the place is a desert with no natural resources. But, people shouldn't kill each other in polite society. So, the only option, when both sides have extremists calling for the blood of all the others, is to remove the extremists. (I'd suggest putting them in a desert, but that hasn't worked ... maybe a desert isle?) If the others can live in peace together, like all other nations and sub-national ethic minorities must and have down through history, then all is well.
