An Inconveient Truth #1
In 1964, the Surgeon General discovered that tobacco and smoking cause lung cancer.
Source #1
http://www.healthline.com/blogs/smoking_cessation/2008/03/smoking-and-lung-cancer.html
-The article was written by Jonathan Foulds, MA, MAppSci, PhD.
-He has three different degrees, a Masters, a Masters in Applied Science, and a PhD.
-Credible enough for me to believe him.
-He agrees with the fact, saying that smoking does, in fact, cause lung cancer.
-Yes I do believe the him.
-Mainly because 2 of my, mostly, well-known relatives are smokers and they both have lung problems.
Source #2
http://www.azcc.arizona.edu/cpc/lung.asp
-The source is 5 different doctors..Baldassarre Stea, MD, PhD, Deirdre Cohen, MD, Linda Garland, MD, S. Jack Wei, MD, Scot William Ebbinghaus, MD.
-They all are MDs.
-Considering the fact that they are all MDs, they are quite credible.
-They don't put the entire blame on smoking, but yes they do agree.
-I do believe them.
-Well, they are all medical doctors and more likely than not, one, if not all, of them have probably done a study or two about it.
Source #3
http://www.nbccongress.org/health_wellness/cigarette-smoking-lung-cancer.asp
-The source is the National Cancer Institute.
-Well, they are an entire society of doctors and physicians specializing in all different types of cancers.
-Very credible, they are a national association, so they obviously mean business.

-The sources tells me that smoking is one of the leading causes, among other things, for lung cancer, and gives statistics linking smokers and people who have lung cancer.
-Again, I do believe the source.
-Because I've seen it happen.
I do believe that this fact is true, because it happens in 50% of smokers and the sources have all confirmed that it is true, by explaining in medical term and giving statistics.

US Middle East Post
1.How did your country get involved in the Arab-Israeli conflict in the Middle East?
Well, the US extended their "concern" in recognition of Israel, by letting 100,000 Jews into Isreal after World War II.
2.What is the history of your country's involvement in that conflict, from when it entered until now? (This will likely be a long answer...)
3.Who are your enemies in the Middle East? Why?
Iran-mostly because they are anti-Israelic.
Saudi Arabia-because they use oil funds to help terrorist networks.
Pakistan-because they choose not to do anything about Taliban networks against the US.
4.Who are your friends in the Middle East? Why?
Israel, Egypt, Pakistan, Jordan, and Kuwait-because they are all on the Israeli side of the Arab Israeli conflict, as are we.
5.What does your country want out of the Arab-Israeli conflict?
Peace within the Middle East, and, subsequently, to convince Israel to allow Arabs to live there.
6.What is it prepared to give up to get what it wants?
It is willing to fund US military operations to, per se, force peace on the two.
7.What will it not give up to get what it wants?
The US is not willing to risk starting a nuclear war, and not willing to risk provoking middle eastern countries to start nuclear wars.
