Uninen,
I'm not saying you're wrong about where the U.S. got their advanced science from. Certain scientists were part of the German Nazi group before they were part of the U.S. Government. But technically the scientific knowledge isn't American or Nazi, it's just information. The scientists themselves also in a way became American Scientists once they work for America. Sure they were Nazi's or atleast working for that system, but they switched to the American system. I don't think it's exactally correct to label what they knew or taught as either, knowlege is just knowledge and can't really be combined with a system of government or society. If it could then astrology would be Egyptian or something. Ya know what I mean. Where technology originated from is really pointless in most cases and doesn't change what the technology is in and of itself.

MOJOM.. you are right.. but it was Wernher Von Braun:s rocket that took man to the moon.. and he was a "nazi".. The man who desingned V-2..

Osama is a very strange choice. I was wondering why anyone would choose such an Avatar exactally. Not that anyone's Avatar has to mean anything at all, or that is must be linked with that person even, it could just be a picture. It does however raise the odds in favor of others getting the wrong idea about you though and should be considered. Especially when opinions and moral judgement often become things to attack and defend around here.

Third, have heard of jet taking out the plane in Penn, but the government would have told the people, most likely. Why not? We were under attack, another plane was hijaked, I think the people would have understood the jet shooting down another terrorist missle.

Why would the government admit they shot it down? Think about it? I'm sure that if they admitted to shooting it down people would have understood but if they say that some passengers on board found out what was going on and decided to take the plane out themselves then you create a martyr. You give the people an icon, someone to rally around, it creates a strong sense of patriotism. Just for the record I am not saying I believe that we shot that plane down, I am just saying that if that did happen I dont think that the Government would admit to it.

Yes Uni, your post did indeed give the impression that you found two towers burning, with people in flames jumping out, funny, because it was Americans getting attacked for a change. if this was not your intent, and you hit the wrong button, then Im sorry for being mean to you. However, if you do find it amusing, than # you.

I hold little love for the French because of personal experiences in thier country, and such, but I hardly find it funny or Amusing all the people dying from the heat, I find it sad, because they are dying from something unnatural. Nor do I laugh when I see pictures of dead Iraqi troops rotting in the desert dead. The useless deaths of a bunch of people is never funny. Someone will never get to see someone else again.

Thus, when people laugh about 9/11 (which they do, the night 9/11 happened, #loads of people flooded MSN chatrooms, laughing and saying how happy they were that Americans got hit and are dying, and they hoped it happened again) I get VERY VERY evil. the horns pop out, the head spins, and not even the pope can cast out the demons.

Incedentally, the cellphone was invented by the Japanese.

Not everything was stolen from the Nazis either. There were plenty of other inventions we came up with that didnt involve them. if the Nazis had all this, they could have won the war, perhaps.

No one saved our asses. The only real threat to us was the Japanese. the Germans hadnt even been able to break the British barier, let alone cross the Atlantic.
