What questions do you want answered leigh?

"World problems and fighting against each other......Can you better define this?

Our world drawn apart by "even" friendly Nations.....Which Nations and how?

Why do we not stand together as a peaceful people.....Who the hell is we?...We do stand together...

We had better get it together...a coalition..A coalition for what John?

Our time may be drawing close to the end according to the prophesies......are you kidding me?

This thread make absolutely no sense what so ever......."

It's not my definition to answer this. It is for people of the world to define this. Most of your questions have been answered by others, even on this thread.

1) Middle East

2) US and Canada to start...Mexico...

3) Name the Nations that stand together.

4) co·a·li·tion (k-lshn)
n.
1. An alliance, especially a temporary one, of people, factions, parties, or nations.
2. A combination into one body; a union.
3. A group of usually two to six male lions that drive off and replace the male lions in a pride in order to mate with the females and protect the resulting offspring.

[French, from Medieval Latin coaliti, coalitin-, from Latin coalitus, past participle of coalscere, to grow together; see coalesce.

Are we not seeing this in our lifetimes in Japan and other places in the world?

I answered the questions as best I could. I hope you understand that it is getting past my bedtime! I'm tired and heading back to the campsite soon.

Threads that I post like this is like finding a solution for world hunger. It doesn't happen overnight. Ohhhh yes. I'm calm.

CS is a large focus group. The same thing happens in smaller focus groups...people argue. As thread author, my duty is to facilitate. That can be difficult to do sometimes when life gets in the way.

Just keep talking. Leigh asked some good questions, but I was called away for a while and I missed them.

How do you feel about that type of comment on a thread about dealing with world problems and Peace?

Leave it to you to decide.


The comment makes sense in that the first post is so vague and general that I myself have no idea of what you are referring to.

leigh2154 simple articulated the questions we need to know to answer your post properly;

"World problems and fighting against each other......Can you better define this?

Our world drawn apart by "even" friendly Nations.....Which Nations and how?

Why do we not stand together as a peaceful people.....Who the hell is we?...We do stand together...

We had better get it together...a coalition..A coalition for what John?

And not so sure what is with all the injections of links to songs. Just interferes with the flow of text as I have no desire to turn off what I'm already listening to in order to reload pages of youtube songs somebody else picks out for me.

Albie, your comment made less sense than mine.

It might have been vague in your interpretation, but at least I tried. As far as music clogging this up, then don't play it.

I look at music as a universal language to communicate thoughts and words and I always try to find music that deals with the subject matters.

I'll leave it at that for you...I could say much more to you but I won't because I respect your opinions.

1) Middle East


Change occurs Jophn. Surely you are not vain enough to believe that the world should stand still because you are alive in it. Most change kills a lot more people - World Wars, Crusades, famine, epidemics. we now live in the most peaceful time that individual man has even known on this planet.


johnaustin123: 2) US and Canada to start...Mexico...


Mexico and Canada are puling the world apart. This makes no sense John.


johnaustin123: 3) Name the Nations that stand together.


All of Europe, The US, Canada, many Eastern nations, this is NATO, there are other organizations such as the UN where you can find a list of the two hundred odd nations that belong to that john.

Sort of like the coalitions sent to protect Libyans from Gaddafi or the one that forced Iraq our of Kuwait or removed the Taliban or removed Saddam.

I like music as well however, on a thread where we're trying to have a discussion it's rather distracting and rude. sort of like when some joker posts in caps.

As for my comment, it's pretty much just backing up Leigh in her post about how there wasn't enough information in the OP to make a proper reply. Now that you have, I have replied and look forward to your reply so that our discussion may continue.

How did you know all the names of countries, issues and such that he didn't mention and only alluded to in such a general manner? Hell, he won't even specify them now so perhaps you might join in and explain.

Oh, make sure you post a theme song so I'll know it's the guy who didn't know Israel didn't have a constitution and when asked, told all of us to go research his quote from the non existent document.

Why on earth would I want to go to one of your other threads in order to get you to explain what you are talking about on this one given you have clarified a couple of points and still don't make sense.

Given that the world is certainly not going to hell in a hand basket and nations are fo9rming coalitions and coming together like never before and that the geological activity is quite normal as the earth is still alive and changing, what in the world does your OP imply?

I know Ccincy. I'm just grouchie tonight and I appoligize. I won't change my style though. It was talked earlier about my style of posting music and basically clogging the thread.

I don't use brackets because these clog the threads more than music. I might have an advantage because I can speed read. I look at every comment before I post. Brackets excluded.

I'm sure they would like people to post anything they could in order to have more content. In a political discussion however, it interferes with the text and flow of the information being exchanged, sort of like posting in caps or misspelling every second word.

I see. You use music as a way to insult others. No wonder you use it so often rather than carrying on in a rational discussion and answering others questions.

In order to do so you would have to cull your partners and allies, becoming isolationist. That would definitely crimp your productivity and lifestyle.

The only reason I posted what I posted is because I remember Bush jr talking at a press conference while still in office that the US doesn't tell the rest of the world what to do.

I disagree with a couple of your last comments. I was busy posting my last one and then saw them. I did not like what you said about me putting the blame on others because it is not true.

At least I'm trying. I have yet to see a solution to the problem with the title of this thread from you.

Sorry "Just my entitled opinion, as you say for others".
