what for you stands out in the news this year?
for me the london bombings. it was bad
well, there are a few, John Howard getting full control of the sennett, now there is a waste of space. chapelle Corby getting that 20 year jail sentence. the American troops torturing the iraqee prisoners of war, that is so hypocritical
and probably mostly the execution of Van nuin in singapour. he was an australian citizen
i think a good thing that came out of 2005 was that london won the 2012 olympics
oh, yu want positivity...well...um...wel...hmmmmmmm, i think it's cool that so many scientific break throughs happened this year. things to do with cancer and stuff, can't recall wich. I don't concentrate on the good news much, i usually turn it off in disgust way before that.
I don't really many news stories that top my list accept for maybe the London Bombings, and those American hipicrits doing there dirty work for your Presidant. Oh, and 51 people got killed by guns in toronto. not like anyone cared, just thought I'd share that bit. tThat's about it.
i never knew that.
how did it happen?
The completely illegal crime against humanity known as the Iraq war.July the 7th, the dreadful Tsunami, and the equally disasterous earthquake in Pakistan. Can we dare to hope that 2006 will be any better.
I'm not sure about 2006, one can only hope..
For me in 2005 it was the London Bombings;I just couldn't believe it, the earthquake and that Natalie Hallaway story..I get pissed every time they talk about it! Natalie Hallaway was that girl that disapeared off aruba..i think they totally covered something up.
Also in 2005 a lot of plane accidents happened including the Cypriot plane which crashed in Greece on the 14th of August killing 121 people. For a small country like Cyprus 121 people is a lot.
Fortunately i didn't know anyone on that plane but it was a sad thing to happen.
god...i remember that well. and that one that crashed in culumbia
The person who wanted his amputated foot back from police. Very odd story.
Police Give Man Amputated Foot Back

These are the stories which stud out for me, the pope and George Best taking ages to die, why can't people die quickly? July 7 bombings, well we deserve it really when most of our people spend longer criticising our government than they do the terrorists, riots in Birmingham and Sidney and the realisation that not many in ethnick communities admit that their are racists among them, the effort of the Azerbaijani's to overthrow the dictatorships there, Oh and my town was in the news 3 times all for the wrong reasons but still it's never been in the news before as long as I can remember, so I'm not complaining.
