i think when the world gets desperately over crowded govts will just start making it ilelgal to have x amount of kids therefore the populations through natural wastage will diminish back to acceptable levels
they are already doing this in some far east countries

China have stopped it iirc as they realised that they'd go from halving a very large working population to a very small one who couldnt look after them

Kill all the junkies, murderers, rapists, pedos etc. i dont see why they should live because all they are doing is increasing the population and claiming benefits.

Anyways, I think there is more than oil to libya. I think the lockerbie bomber has some tentions to it too.
If its soley about protecting the people, why havent we gone for bahrain? As far as i can see, they are the only country to hold actuall peaceful protest (no weapons, just walking and praying), and they are getting gunned down. The libyians are started shooting at the gouverment officials.
As far as Bahrain is concerned, not only is Bahrain a US ally but the protesters are also Iran backed who are threatening it's independence, Iran see is it as their province, so if The UN/America were to intervene it would not be on the side of the protesters in this situation.

I don't think pakistanis having 3 children is cause for concern. There are parts of the world where it's culture & society encourages people to have many more children than 3

What has culture got to do with what the planet can sustain?

Well if people are having more children, there's only so much space to plant food in the world and only 1% of the earth's water is fresh & drinkable

Do you have any idea what you are saying?
You said we shouldn't be concerned that some cultures have loads of kids, so I've said culture has nothing to do with what we can sustain, then you've went on to back my point up yet disagree
