But, he insists on building up even a more deadly supply of nuclear arms right here in the US. What do you think? How does that work in a democracy again? How does being more threatening make us more likeable?Isn't the country with the most weapons the biggest threat to the rest of the world? When one country is the biggest threat to the rest of the world, isn't that likely to be the most hated country? What happened to us, people? When did we become such lemmings? We have lost friends and influenced no one. No wonder most of the world thinks we suck. Thanks to what george bush has done to our country during the past three years, we do!

Individualland members have also close contacts with the civil society organizations there and this is what our experience has been too.. that the Malaysian press is far from free ... in fact political freedoms as a whole are seriously missing there.. . However, the internet provides us with an opportunity.. In China there are 30,000 internet police but the Chinese bloggers still manage to trudge along. So , lets do that. .. lets creatively think of how we can hoodwink them.. Yes Nur you are right.

They are outspoken. perhaps too outspoken by malaysian standard. i dont know. that's sad. you can read their postings and make your own judgement. i have been to pakistan and have read yr newspapers. rocky and jeff are NOTHING compared to the level of criticism and outspokenness of your journalists. and rocky was a journalist of 20 years in the NSTP (one of the plaintiffs) and a senior editor. Malaysia has taken many steps back. what a tragedy. thank you for highlighting the plight of our two brothers.
