    Ok guys abd gals, a little exercize won't hurt, won't it? Was posted on my ng.

    GAME/ Thousands log on to blow up virtual Busshh.
    Thousands log on to blow up virtual Bush... DOVES DUMP ON DUBYA We wait with bated breath for the FBI to arrest these thousands, including the Fedgovt employees...

    PRESS RELEASE
    For immediate broadcast and print
    09/03/2003
    STARTS HERE
    Thousands log on to blow up virtual Bush

    An online game that pits players as a defecating peace dove against American President George W. Bush, is attracting thousands of plays a day, including from American government departments.

    The game was launched last week by the South African student website "GET A LIFE" ( http://www.gal.co.za ).

    "We're able to monitor where hits are coming from," says Andy Hadfield of gAL. He adds "The game is very popular in Germany, England, South Africa and France."

    "It's also clear that some hits are coming from American government departments including intelligence agencies," says Hadfield, "we haven't recorded anything yet though from the White House."

    The game is set in the UN Security Council. The object of the game is to help a peace dove defecate on Bush, and to evade missiles being shot by Donald Rumsfeld, the US defense secretary. German foreign minister Fischer appears now and again as an angel, and tries in vain to stop the pandemonium in the Security Council Chambers, crying out "order, order, order". The game is won once Bush explodes into a nuclear mushroom, and is lost if the peace dove has been hit once too often by Rumsfeld's missiles.

    The game ends with a quote from Nelson Mandela accusing Bush of driving the world towards a holocaust.

    "I think people have a lot of pent up anger and frustration at the prospect of a war, and are using the game to get rid of some of it," says Hadfield.

    The game is available online at http://www.gal.co.za .

    Thanks for that link SPC, this war worries me, being a bit of an old hippy I'm concerned about innocent people whatever the circumstances be it war or not.

    Its actually something I have been looking for, again thanks.

    Why was this site getting so many hits?

    Well duh? these are the same countries that are in bed with Iraq :rolleyes:

    Oh but there is one country that really shines. (Russia)
    yes it is true, Russia has been selling GPS jamming equipment to the Iraqi's as early as last week.

    The world situation is not funny anymore :oops:
    this truly is a one sided political site.

    War websites by the troops themselves:
    War-themed blogs, appearing on sites like www.blogsofwar.com and
    www.sgtstryker.com, have become a popular alternative news source since
    fighting broke out in Iraq a week ago, sometimes beating newspapers and
    television with war developments.
    One of the most popular is a site run by "L.T. Smash," the blog nickname for
    a reservist in the U.S. Navy who arrived in the Gulf last December. His
    site, www.lt-smash.us, carries the moniker "Live from the sandbox."
    He is not alone. Will, a 29-year-old U.S. Army Reservist and self-proclaimed
    "computer geek," set up a blog site at http://rooba.net/will.
    "Blogs of War" and other sites sometimes beat traditional sources with the
    latest war news.

    I realise that this thread is sort of not used much but I have suddenly realised something of a defect in the 'Cookie' system......as I read thro' the comments I realised that I, a total div as far as Puter knowhow goes and only contributes trite drivel to this illustrious Forum, have 81 Karmas, where as a guy like Zhen-Xjell, who has, so obviously, got the knowhow and ability to leave most of us for dead has only 71o_O?........That Can't be right...can it? o_O

    Regards, Cochise, :cool:

    Since we don't do political here, I post now and then here:

    http://www.computercops.biz/forum27.html

    (ZX probably recognizes that one! <g>).

    There's entirely too much negative stuff going on in America for us all not to have somewhere to post/learn.

    If the word "America" does anything at all to your heart - go give that one a look.

    Participate.

    Get involved.

    Help us fix it.

    WOW Prince!! A lo-ong time since I have seen you post!! How are you??!!:)

    Here is where I give my fantasy/science fiction/mystery books to:

    www.booksforsoldiers.com, they need something to occupy their minds, besides the "usual".

    Some new blogs can be found at http//:blogspot.com, many have been removed ........?

    www.docinthebox.blogspot.com - a medic with humor

    www.kokasexton.com - writing about adjusting to being home again

    www.thequestingcat.com - adjusting to being in Iraq

    www.optruth.com - this is mostly written by soldiers who have returned home, who want the American people to know the truth about Iraqi war.
    They also have a non-profit called "OperationTruth", non-partisan, too.

    www.desertdiet.blogspot.com - a woman's point of view


    The descriptions are just the letters I read, on the days I read them, they may have changed by now.


    Cheers!!

    Marja:cool:

    Greetings All!

    Here is another blog wrote by a Shia Iraqi woman. Wish I could post it

    OUT of this box, it needs to be heard- another side to the craziness of

    the BushWa.

    Bagdad Burning http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/

    This is from Bush' Hometown paper! www.iconoclast-texas.com . Needless to say, this article has gotten the paper in a WHOLE mess of trouble. Hey, at least they still believe in Free Speech!

    Thanks for taking the time to look around here!! It's important, should be required reading for all voters!
