How much of that 22% is nuclear? Or more relevant to the issue at hand, what percent of total power is renewable? If renewable tripled next year, how much of total energy would that constitute?

What do you base that on? Another source? The OP source only calls the victim a security guard. It's not clear whether they mean a USMC embassy guard, an Israeli law enforcement officer, or a security guard of unknown origin. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Argo fuck yaself. Yeah, I read the story and watched the movie. You can't actually think that's got any relation whatsoever to what's happened in Benghazi.

Then I guess we need to know more abour her role in the way the Libya information changed from the military brieifings up to the White House. Somewhere along the way the inconvenient truth was altered for political election purposes. If she's involved in that, then she's unfit. You absolutely have no idea what motivations might have been involved. Blame "the government" if you want, but I have no doubt whatsoever she was doing the precise job she was supposed to be doing at that moment. "The government" has dozens upon dozens of reasons to say one thing to the UN while the truth might be different. One of them is the safety of remaining individuals posted to the embassy under attack. It's foolish and naive to expect 100 percent and absolute truth in moments such as those. You have no idea whatsoever how much "the government" may be protecting "house guests." Really foolish and insulting to simply assume anything at this point. Careful you don't hurt yourself stretching, twisting, and spinning that much. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

The entire concept is nonsense. It is nothing more than fear mongering and playing on the ignorance of the public. The definition of assault weapons is based on nothing more than cosmetic featyres. Even people who want to ban the rifles can't tell you why. Small guns are saturday night specials (more evidence of the racist roots of gun control). Scoped bolt action rifles are sniper rifles. Rifles so short on power that they are illegal to use for hunting medium game likedeer are called high powered rifles. Guns that vaguely resemble military arms are called assault weapons. Normal capacity magazines (those not artificially limited) are called high capacity mags. The lies and deception go on and on.

So how does Hamas feel about killing not only Israeli civilians but their own children? Oh, that's right, they're ok with that too because they just blame the IDF and parade the "victims" in front of visiting dignitaries.

We call that genocide, and it's generally frowned upon. Part of why Israel can claim the moral high ground is not trying to exterminate the opposition. There are good folks in Gaza, even if most of them are dumb enough to elect Hamas. Historical analogy: We didn't "finish the job" when we invaded Germany in the 1940s, did we? No, that's what their leader - also elected by democratic vote - was trying to do to a certain group relevant to today's story. Additional proof that Israel isn't out to empty the Palestinian lands: they're not attacking the West Bank or the Golan Heights. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

No matter who you ask, the answer is always "the other guys." For more distant commentators, it's "the guys I don't like." The facts do t really matter when it conflicts with their worldview.

Well, what FACTS do you have to contradict the police report? Really, you've seen the police report? You haven't posted a link. What facts do you have that your allegations are fact? All you've posted is what some reporter says the police said about what the suspect said. That's a lot of mouths between you and the horse. Or do you think reporters always get it 100% accurate? Also, like the lawyers will tell you, even if a police report is completely honest and accurate, that doesn't mean it tells the whole story. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

You make yourself irrelevant with your love of Iran clouding all arguments and fictional statements. No attacks in 2000 years? Come on. Pre Muslim conquest they fought for expansion like most countries. During the post Muhammad caliphates they participated in sanctioned attacks to expand Muslim influence and in their own independants military actions. Skip a few centuries and you come to the 1826 Abbas Mirza invasion into Russia. Later you have the attacks on the afghanis attempting to take Herat. Then you have the Iran Iraq war. Iraq started it, but Iran attacked and seized three island in the gulf. They also attacked tankers by missile, most notably the MV Sea Isle City. After that there weren't any attacks I can think of, but you've got to attribute that to massive international sanctions and embargoes. Following international disapproval and response, Iran moved to war by proxy (which I fully expect you to deny but have to laugh at your denials) through Kurds, Hezbollah, the northern alliance in Afghanistan, and others. Most recently they've expanded their attack by proxy to include cyberwarfare, best exemplified by the Shamoon attacks on Saudi Aramco and Ras Gas. They even took part of the code from Flame and used it to retaliate for Flame and Stuxnet. The attacks on US banks are less clearly Iranian in origin but US gov sources claim it is. The attacks on Lockheed may include Iranian attackers but I'd suggest they revolve mostly around Chinese and Russian attackers. If you acknowledge reality and make reasonable arguments, this can be a very interesting conversation. Others leaving out the love/hate Jews/Muslims or Israelis/Arabs, it'll go even better. But if you continue with your jingoistic pro Iran fervor and "no attacks in 2000 years" nonsense, then you'll burn out or be relegated to insignificance before this thread leaves the first page. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Wow, you know the person's motivation. Impressive. Petraeus hoped affair would stay secret and he could keep his job as CIA director. Now tell me again how he resigned because it was the honorable thing to do. Seattle Times and NBC article that mention the unnamed FBI whistleblower was concerned about potential cover up. Don't go calling people conspiracy nuts or accuse them of making up unknown motivations unless you actually know what you're talking about. It is not normal for FBI and DOJ to investigate the DCI without AG, POTUS, and DNI being made aware of it. There are also questions being raised about whether or not the FBI artificially extended the investigation to prevent closing the case and requiring that it be passed to POTUS "officially." witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
