Is Yahoo Answers a propaganda organ for the American government?

Question

Yahoo Answers seems happy to allow many questions justifying the killing of civilians by Americans.

Why is it then, that when I suggest that deaths of American civilians was completely justified on 9/11 (in view of the casual attitude of Americans to foreign civilian deaths) my question is deleted?

Answer 1

There are a lot of different views here! Most aren't worth reading ( including mine). People come in here and try to convince others they are right, people come in here for fun, people come in here to spout off, people come in here to be amazed by we the people!

I hear some people saying 9/11 was justified. I disagree, but you can have your own thoughts on life. I don't care what people think as long as they don't try to enforce their thoughts on others through force.

I have an idea, I won't kill anyone if you don't. Now if we can get everyone else to go along with that we have solved the worlds problems!

Answer 2

We are the superpower...we can kill as many people as we want whenever we want for any reason we want. (Right now the reason is oil, so if you have oil in your country, beware!) We are always right and any retaliation against us is NEVER justified.

All jokes aside, Yahoo! probably deleted the question because someone reported it is offensive or abusive. They don't investigate, they just delete.

Personally, I think it is a good question. Not to minimize the loss of life on 9/11 but you have a good question...we are unaware of many of the people that are killed in foreign countries at our hands and for the most part, we seem unmoved by it. We usually justify it because somewhere there is a wrongdoing involved. I have always felt that our military should never be sent abroad, they should always be stationed here to protect us HERE.

We spend too much time in the business of other countries and 9/11 was the sad result of us always sticking our noses where it does not belong. That's just my opinion.

Answer 3

If Yahoo Answers is a propaganda machine for the US government, it isn't doing a very good job. I see as many or more anti-semites getting their licks in on here. Way more.

I was going to ask how many radical extremist Islamo Facist sympathizers are on here but all I had to do was start looking at the questions being asked and my question was answered. A lot of them.

I took the ver prevelant and acepted reasoning of all terrorist are Arab kill all arabs and utilized it to timothy McViegh a white guy.....it grow to be deleted. I then went directly to ask a query the place usa grow to be Lebenon and on a similar time as fleeing the "enemy" bombed the go out routes I portrayed the U. S. as Lebenon and Islam as Israel and asked if the action might breed hate and if Israeli action might consequently breed hate - They deleted that. I wrote an digital mail challengeing them to tell me how that (the above) incited hate or racisim as of yet no respond .... Agreeing or disagreeing with me is one component yet to censor an opinion is ussually called facisim and thats what I worry the U. S. is becoming and sure I do discover it ironic that bush throws out the term and is maximum to blame of what he accuses others of. i'm begining to think of you and that i should be greater carefull in destiny

Answer 5

If you don't have more than 2 answers and you don't increase your expiration time, your question will be deleted.

I'm not sure if it can be deleted if enough people report it.
