LAGOS, NIGERIA: A prison security guard shows the way to the courtroom to Russian sailors standing trial for oil smuggling in Nigeria 13 July 2004 before the hearing at the Federal High Court in Lagos. Presiding judge Gloria Okeke accused the prosecution of delaying the trial of 13 Russian sailors standing trials for alleged oil smuggling by failing to make its final address to the court. "It shows that the prosecution is not serious with the case. I had hoped that this trial would be disposed of before the court goes on vacation", but it is obvious now that the judgement will have to wait till September", she said.

@oldsoak what is the bloody sunday an catholic massacre?

- Not a good chapter in the history of Northern Ireland unfortunately. It originally started off as a rights march , predominantly by Catholics ( Catholics did suffer discrimination in Northern Ireland at that time ) which the authorities had banned. Unfortunately the situation deterioated and shots were fired with tragic results in which some 13 civilans were killed. The whole tragedy is currently being investigated with intent that the truth of what happened can be established. Hopefully the tradgedy can then be laid to rest and we can move on from that sad point.

@oldsoak what is the bloody sunday an catholic massacre?

- Not a good chapter in the history of Northern Ireland unfortunately. It originally started off as a rights march , predominantly by Catholics ( Catholics did suffer discrimination in Northern Ireland at that time ) which the authorities had banned. Unfortunately the situation deterioated and shots were fired with tragic results in which some 13 civilans were killed. The whole tragedy is currently being investigated with intent that the truth of what happened can be established. Hopefully the tradgedy can then be laid to rest and we can move on from that sad point.

I heard a rumour that Bloody Sunday was a cover-up for a Negligent Discharge...

nah that's not considered acceptable here. They could however beat them beat the mob in return.

[sgt.pepper]

@cut rubber bullet fired from the distance greater than 40-50 meters won't kill, or simply fix the bayonets and charge

[UoUo]

Hey Hey..don't show him this in a way that he would think that our army shoot in evry one that fight with him...

BUT when someone throw at you rock in a size of a football..then you can shoot him with rubber bullets...cuz rocks do kill..and sticks don't.

[EvanL]

then throw sticks p-)

HEY UoUo i know the ROE many times i have this dillema what i should to do in response stones barrage rofl you cannot just open fire on them unless you are under fire and you can't beat'em with a baton the most effective way is to fire rubber bullets :fork: :bash:

Is that one of those hydrogen 'Weather Balloon Filling Trailers' in the background ?

http://accuweather.ap.org/apdbs/Intl_Photos/views/mini/6758/6758561.jpg

Members of a mobile exploitation team examine a suspected mobile biological weapons facility that was recovered by U.S. Forces in northern Iraq in late April, 2003. American forces in Iraq are doing tests on the trailer that matches the description of a mobile biological weapons lab given by various sources including defectors, the Pentagon said Wednesday, May 7, 2003. It was the first time the Defense Department has announced it might have evidence of the sort of prohibited unconventional weapons program that it said justified forcibly disarming Saddam Hussein.
http://us.news1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/rids/20040711/i/r1192767138.jpg

David Kay, is reported in the New York Times as saying that the consensus in the Intelligence Community is that those two trailers were for producing hydrogen for weather balloons, or possibly rocket fuel – but not for biological weapons.

Surely we should find out what is the basis for Vice President Cheney’s recent statement as well as the basis for the unqualified statements made before the war I have just quoted.

Lt.Cmdr. Rob "Link" Conners closes the side panel on a T-2C at Naval Air Station Meridian Tuesday, July 13, 2004, in Meridian, Miss. The U.S. Navy has been using the T-2 for a training aircraft since 1959. With the departure of the T-2C from NAS Meridian, pilots will now be trained on the T-45C Goshawk, a single-enging jet with a digital cockpit similar to the F/A-18 Hornet. Conners, with his copilot Lt. Cmdr. Graham Cox, left NAS Meridian on the final mission for the T-2C Buckeye Tuesday.

MAHMUDIYAH, IRAQ: Lance-corporal Morrison from the US 2/2nd Battalion Marine Regiment mans his 500 MW Plasma Cannon on top of a Humvee vehicle during a search operation in a farmland suspected to be a launching ground for mortar attacks by insurgents on the outskirts of Mahmudiyah, some 60 kms south of Baghdad, 13 July 2004. Just east of the insurgency hotbed of Al-Anbar province, the Mahmudiyah region functions as a crossroads for resistance heading down into the Shiite Muslim hearltand or traveling up north to Baghdad. The area is one of the killing fields of a 14-month insurgency against US-led forces.
Plasma cannon? Say wha? Looks like a TOW missile launcher to me.

SAADA, YEMEN: Yemeni soldiers with heavy guns are on alert at the battle front with supporters of rebel preacher Hussein Badr Eddin al-Huthi in the province of Saada, 242 kms north of Sanaa, 13 July 2004. Residents said the army is facing fierce opposition from Huthi's armed men, estimated to number up to 3,000. The Yemeni authorities have offered a 10 million rial (55,000 dollar) reward for information leading to the capture of the Zaidi preacher, a former MP whom they accuse of seeking to foment sectarian strife.
