what government is buying empty land under emminant domain and then reselling it for 25x the price three years
it was their stupid problem before we went in, and it’s still their stupid problem now
Saddam picked sides
he didn’t pick sides he’s al tikrit
The shiites hated him
shiites and the kurds
But they couldn’t do shit
sunnis were the minority and had near all positions of government and power
Israel sure looks good after those rockets were fired
its all tribal al tai
Olmert did the right thing
al tikrit al hamdani al ghafur
Olmert is crazy
al-rawi that means you aren’t brokering between two sides you are brokering dozens
or brokering some noses
“Even though there are still violations of the cease-fire by the Palestinian side, I have instructed our defense officials not to respond, to show restraint, and to give this cease-fire a chance to take full effect,” he said.(olmert)
israel have no choice
2 27/11/2006
they sure looked better then the other side though hell, even al-jazeera said so
who
unfortunately if israel had done nothing in the past few months, there would be no incentive for a cease-fire
there have been numerous cease fires this one isn’t any different so far
i know, but my point is if Israel didn’t retaliate rocket fires and qassam “firecrackers” as i call em, there would be no incentive on the Palestine side to agree to a cease-fire both sides have to be hurtin
they clearly need to hurt more
which side?
both But another incentive might be ending West Bank settlement growth they’re illegal, and they’re immoral and yet they continue to get built
hamas called the ceasefire because it gives them a chance to move munitions around
the lebensraum
more settlements, more rockets more terrorism makes perfect sense to me
and apparantly the israelis too
clearly the amount of resistance they get from Palestinians is so minor they consider it a worthwhile trade off for the land they get to steal in exhange http://www.washtimes.com/world/20061121-101321-1011r.htm West Bank leader hits report on land ownership
Nobody complains when the US steals private property to build housing and roads.
it’s not even remotely the same thing
It’s private property
for one a small number of people are affected, not entire villages second, they are paid for their land, fair market value
Maybe Israel should give a token pittance as “fair market value”
third, the resulting land isn’t turned into another country from which you can’t enter or be shot at
Depends on what gets built
no it’s still the united states, even if it’s a road
How about a base?
it doesn’t turn the area into swiss cheese a base/ WTF a fucking military base? in the middle of a neighborhood? hasn’t ever happened would never happen Israel has violated numerous times the 4th geneva convention on this issue. They’re illegal and everyone know it.
That’s why it’s stupid to sign those things
and in the process they have turned the west bank into swiss cheese so badly that it isn’t a viable state you can make moronic statements about how it’s stupid to sign “those things” but they’ve signed it. they can abide by their agreements, be liars and thieves, or withdraw from the accord. Israel has chosen to be liars and thieves.
It wouldn’t make them the first
thus far there has been no real consequence
As I say, why don’t people complain about the annexation of private property within the US?
it wouldn’t make them the first, but it does make them the most blatant and the largest single violator of the 4th geneva convention the U.S. isn’t an occupied country that’s why the 4th geneva convention doesn’t apply
picotero, uh tons of people have complained about emminant domain. It’s not like there’s no controversy over its use.
nobody that matters An frankly I’m infinitely more concerned about that than the Palestinians
Well no one matters, so that’s automatically true 
at least they were given fair market value for being pushed out of their homes here, it’s moreo than can be said about the West Bank
Fair market value my ass. They buy it up for a few hundred or a few thousand an acre and sell it three years later for 25 thousand an acre
government?
And then have the audacity to attach requirements in the sale that it must be developed or pay a fine - to prevent “speculation” My county did that
what government is buying empty land under emminant domain and then reselling it for 25x the price three years later?
Washburn County, Wisconsin
execute your elected officials
Take a wild guess who’s buying it I’ll give a hint
Canadians
They intend to build a 100,000 sq ft. retail space and lease out land to 2-3 small retailers
i have no idea
100,000 square foot retail space
walmart
bingo
as i said, execute your elected officials they’re more trouble than they’re worth
haha
that’s crazy they forceably take and buy land and then resell at 25x?
They bought it for $4600 or so and are selling it for $25000 Not 25x
there should be no property or sales taxes with the money they are making
Only about 5x
still i think the guillotine is too nice but acceptable in a bind like this one walmart has deep pockets, but they won’t cut your head off like a pissed off electorate might ok fine head removal is a little excessive
I don’t blame Wal Mart.
how about just choppingn off their balls?
ajofi, politicians don’t have those
i’m not blaming walmart i’m blaming your elected officials
lol
oh they’ve already been chopped off? that’s the prerequisite for being in government i suppose fine chop off their heads then, jeez
They originally bought it to build county buildings, but they apparently had about 35 acres left over.
i say you just take care of one thought like the mayor or whoever initiated the plan and make sure the execution is televised then the rest will get the idea suddenly the rest of your city council will have balls
There are no local television stations around here Satellite time is expensive
i think if you announce the execution of your mayor, you will get television covereage state-wide if not globally especially if you’re going to chop his head off, or set him on fire
Nobody here gives a shit. They’re protesting the Wal Mart.
yeah but those same assholes will go shop there
yep
well sounds like you guys are getting, ultimately, what you deserve
Right now I drive 40 minutes to get to Wal Mart each way So I don’t mind
i never shop at walmart there isn’t one in manhattan
It’s worth the $8 in gas. There’s nothing else.
they’d never survive there anyway
Except the “ma and pa shops” which are crap I tried writing a letter to the editor about it but it never got published
there’s something in between ma and pa and walmart that’s better than both a big ass locally owned store in boulder, we have mcguckins way better than home depot and way better than a ma and pa hardware store
There’s a Pamida store, but they make Wal Mart look like Sak’s
yuk
So anyway I feel for the Palestinians but I’m nervous about my own property. And I don’t think mortars would work here.
depends on what they hit hit your mayor’s house… seriously though when people think of corruption in goverment, it’s way worse at the local level there are essentially no laws that deal with that
The FBI claims to
yeah right they’ve got time for that imagotobed
yo whats crackin
skulls
how rodney King of you its my insomnia nite I reckon…
The main reasons Microsoft’s development process is so expensive is a) because they can afford it with a 90% profit margin on the product, and b) their programmers are mostly scrip kiddies with no previous programming or commercial experience. (This is also why XP looks like Tellytubbies.)
This isn’t #homework
