You gotta love Robin Williams........Even if he's nuts! Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect plan. What we need now is for our UN Ambassador to stand up and repeat this message.
Robin Williams' Plan...(Hard to argue with this logic!) 'I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a plan for peace. So, here's one plan.' 1) 'The US, UK , CANADA and AUSTRALIA ETC, will apologize to the world for our 'interference' in their affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Tojo, Noriega, Milosevic, Hussein, and the rest of those 'good 'ole' boys', well we will never 'interfere' again. 2) We will withdraw all our troops from all over the world, starting with Turkey, South Korea , the Middle East, and the Philippines etc. They don't want us there. We would station troops at our borders. So no one allowed sneaking through holes in the fence anymore. 3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of whom or where they are from. They're illegal!!! Africa will welcome them. 4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 days unless given a special permit!!!! No one from a terrorist nation will be allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself and don't come and hide here. Asylum would never be available to anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers or 7-11 cashiers. 5) No foreign 'students' over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they don't attend classes, or they get a 'D' and it's back home baby. 6) The US, UK , CANADA and AUSTRALIA ETC will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy wise. This will include developing non-polluting sources of energy but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness The caribou will have to cope for a while. 7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for their oil. If they don't like it, we go someplace else. They can go somewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of the wells filling up the storage sites would be enough.) 8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will not 'interfere..' They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them is stolen or given to the connected.. The people who need it most get very little, if anything at all. 9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island someplace. We don't need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the building would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens. 10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one can call us 'Ugly Americans' any longer. The Language we speak is ENGLISH...learn it...or LEAVE. Now, isn't that a winner of a plan? The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses..' Now she's got a baseball bat and she's yelling, 'You want a piece of me?' |
This is NOT a serious attempt at provincial independence and self government so do not amass your armies at our borders and detain us as subversives.

Stokes and Packer: We need to bow to China
Two billionaires with large Chinese business interests, Kerry Stokes and James Packer, have slammed Australia’s conduct of its relationship with China and said Australians seemed ungrateful to their largest trading partner.
“Simplistically, as a layman, China has been a better friend to us than we have been to China,” Mr Packer said at a conference on Friday. “Now I think that if that continues for long periods of time, friendships get damaged.”
Mr Stokes, who is a major donor to the Australian War Memorial, said he was physically repulsed by the presence of US troops on Australian soil not under Australian command and believed the upgrade of the military relationship had upset many ordinary Chinese.

Education in Luxembourg
The education system in Luxembourg: information includes all the stages from creche to pre-primary, primary and secondary education and international schooling...
Newcomers to Luxembourg essentially have two options when it comes to education, either to enrol their child in a state or private school or to enrol them in an international school. The majority of children attend state schools. Only a small number of schools provide a linguistic and/or pedagogical alternative.Education is carried out in the three official languages: Luxembourgish, French and German.
Education is compulsory for all children aged between 4 and 16. Younger children may attend nursery schools. No child can be refused education for reasons of race, sex, language, religion or legal status of the parents.

Separatism threatens the future of Spain
By David Gardner
Canadian regional elections seldom set the international pulse racing
but this week’s victory in Quebec of the separatist Parti Québécois
was closely watched in Spain, now facing a revival of Basque and
Catalan independence demands. These, in turn, are being carefully
monitored by the Scottish National party, committed to a referendum
in 2014 on Scotland’s future relationship with the UK.

By then, the die may be cast in Spain, where separatism has stormed
on to the agenda amid the worst crisis of the post-Franco, democratic
era. Alongside theeurozone crisis and Spain’s worsening public finances
and chronic lack of economic growth and jobs, Madrid looks to be
sleepwalking into a constitutional crisis that could lead to the break-up
of Spain.
