GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.
Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.
The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry. [Reply]

The dude is so transparent its pathetic. He won't even give any details about his dad's ordeal because it either didn't happen or it happened so long ago that it will be obvious that he is only bringing it up for sympathy.
Sorry if the timings of those two events have come up recently. I have also started two other threads that you conveniently failed to mention. I wonder why that is?... :-),...
...Oh, yeah.... IT DOES NOT FIT YOUR AGENDA TO BRING THOSE UP! Moron! [Reply]

I didn't fail to mention shit. It wasn't pertinent. If a guy robs a bank and gets his shoes shined, the prosecutor isn't going to focus on the shoe shine.

It was obvious bullshit. It never happened. If it had, he would have offered some proof. Look at this beatdown... he desperately needs a win.
Maybe you are right that it happened long ago or to someone else. Smells of total fabrication to me... been around these internets a long time... [Reply]

In his mind, he never lost. Frankie, like all truly dumb people, is ignorant of the fact. [Reply]

I was especially pissed at you because as I remember (or didn't remember) you and I had a respectful relationship here and I was surprised. That, and the fact that I have to type fast and furious during these idiot pile ons makes anyone prone to quick judgement. I hope that's a good enough explanation. :-)
Thanks, good enough for me.
And with that, I'm out of this thread for good. [Reply]

What FC (which I have a good idea what it stands for) conveniently omitted was that this was a reply to the post by mnchiefsguy who said, "There is nothing that the United States has done that warranted that attack." I was explaining that there was not one big thing but a total sum of many smaller things that added up big. Hence the "Pounds" and "Ton" reference.
This was just a statement of a sad fact. And if anybody does not think that the West, especially the US did not partake in the looting of the Middle East over most of the 20th century he/she either has his/her head up his ass or is in total denial.
AGAIN: I did not say the US did something like a military attack that provoked the 9/11 attack. I said the US policies in most of the 20th century was definitely a major contribution to it.
MC58 also failed to mention that I, as most Iranians and former Iranians have, have condemned the 9/11 attack. Mine was even repeated several times in that very thread.
I don't expect bigoted idiots like MC to understand what I just said. But most of the rest of you should, unless you wear ignorance as a badge of honor.
The main polices you speak of have to do with Israel. As in the only resolution in the mind of most of the ME is to exterminate the Jews. There is also resentment over the United States dependence on oil. Strange the impoverished resent the US sending billions to the leaders for oil yet ignore the billions of dollars of support given and the forgiveness of billions in debt. NOTHING AND I MEAN NOTHING warranted or justified that attack~ [Reply]
All of you who have kept this thread going are the one's who are so insecure about your own intelligence that just can not accept somebody else is intelligent. And most of you can not accept that the person in question is not an American according to your definition of a true American. Everytime I call you out on the subject y'all go Fox News on me. [Reply]
