if you can give me just ONE justified reason for murdering 10s of thousands of iraqis, i'll eat my hat. iraq had no WMDs. iraq wasnt a threat to america. therefore the war was illegal. simple as. bush and blair should be tried for war crimes. simple as

the disregard you have for any life other than an american life is not only ridiculously hypocritical but also utterly disgusting

the sooner history inevitably repeats itself and a new world power emerges the better - nobody could be any worse than the USA

Answer 2

Well said Viper.

Muslim terrorism will slow down, especially against Yankee targets, when Israel is stopped from its expansionist aims by the Yank government. At present the Yanks are exacerbating the problem, with the help of B'liar who sent in British troops, by being in Iraq. The sooner the Yanks pick up their toys and go home the sooner the problem will be mended, however as the Yanks administration will never admit they are wrong so like Vietnam they will be there for years if not decades.

A nice bit of destabilisation helps the Yankee arms industry to make fantastic profits and that along with oil is the reason that they are there.

By the way 911 as you call it was obviously a government plot, how else do you demolish two tall buildings into their own basements, the buildings should have toppled over half of New York.

Answer 3

The entire world is going to hell, it's not just America.
Russia just re-launched their 24hr bombers (like they used to do during the cold war) and are plowing $200B US in new arms. People have become expendable pawns for the military of big nations like China, USA and Russia. The military gets what they want, and screw the average people. Terrorism is an excuse.
There always has been and always will be "terrorism."
You can no more win a "war" on terrorism, than win a war on prostitution.
It's all a con job, because as we all know, Russia, China, and the USA are so threatened by terrorism, that this terror could bring down all three nations just.. like... *THAT* !!! (deeeeeeep sarcasm totally intended)
Meanwhile: the world's supply of nukes keeps increasing, in both amount and power.
Civil rights are being eroded everywhere and militarism is taking over. Rational/scientific thought is being replaced by gibberish and bullshit lies. Uniting the planet in peace and prosperity for all (as a worthy goal for this new millenium), has been undone by pseudo-nationalism.
Are you with us, or against us?
Hey, it's either US, or THEM!
Thing is....we are all US and THEM. The world's too small, there are too many weapons, too much money in the hands of a few and way too much suffering and misery. The way humans treat one another makes us a disgrace as a species. Plague infested rats treat one another better than humans.
I seriously doubt the human race will make it past the 22nd century. (I'm a cheery fellow, uh? ;)

Answer 4

What would you call a person who blows up a school bus full of kids ? What is the person called who blows up women and kids in the market place ?
America was not at war with anybody when Muslims ( okay I didn't say terrorists ) drove planes into the Towers. We were not at war, so it was just plain murder.
Those assholes thought they were getting 72 virgins ( lies told by the imams ). Instead, their remains are in the dump with their victims. Paradise is not for murderers. Paradise is not for suiciders. The mullahs and imams used the creeps as suckers. Read the Koran, you'll learn where the lying imams are going too.

Answer 5

we at the instant are not scuffling with Afghanistan. Do people even save on with the conflict these days? we are scuffling with an insurrection group universal with the aid of fact the Taliban. maximum Afghans have not something to do with the conflict. If we've been scuffling with the completed united states it may be easy and easy to win. We does not could desire to pass out attempting to locate the enemy. Our conflict casualties at the instant are not something whilst in comparison with previous wars. a million,476 US lifeless in only about 9 and a half years isn't something whilst in comparison with how issues was. Hell of so plenty extra advantageous than the fifty 8,159 US lifeless in Vietnam. The Taliban are those in hiding. they're those launching the sneak assaults and planting bombs on the area of the line. they are in a position to't combat us head to head with the aid of fact they lose each and every time. All they are in a position to desire to do it out stay us.

Answer 6

Everyone who stays in their own country and fights against an invading force is obviously a terrorist. They don't exist in America so you guy's have to go into other places to find them, and surprise surprise, each time you start a war you find more terrorists.
Pull out and stay in your own country and maybe there wont be a problem.
There have been more Americans killed by the war on terror then any terrorist act could possibly claim.

Answer 7

I think it is ironic that this country was formed during a war for independence, by people rallying against unfair taxes - people who were dirt poor and had to fight the British by hiding in the woods and ambushing them (surely not terrorist tactics), yet when the govt tries to step in and oppress other countries (or even our own citizens who protest the unfair income tax), when they fight back, often in the only way they can, they are branded terrorists. We live in strange times.

Answer 8

Actually, if they're just fighting back, it's only 'asymetric warfare' - even if they're coming from other countries to 'fight back' on behalf of the ethnic/religious 'brothers,' they're only 'insurgents.'

It's when they start blowing up thier own people, murdering thier own police, and beheading reporters, that the 'terrorist' label really starts to stick.

Answer 9

When you plant explosives and walk away, how do you know you are hitting your target? Basically, you begin to create terror, since anyone could be harmed by these planted explosives without any supervision or direction in its attack.

Hiding among citizens when a military is attacking is a different circumstance, since those citizens are consenting to war.

Answer 10

i've got an issue. does anybody remember how after the clintons left the white house that they had to ask hillary to please return the furniture she took from the lincoln room? how about whitewater? not ranting, but things like this disturb me. they give me clear vision through the haze of topics and who supports what and why. i only vote on character, and i've only voted once in my life. these days it seems like nobody can even recognize when someone is being earnest, candid and humble. these things used to mean something to the american people, now they are considered characteristic traits of being a moron. what happened to us and do we deserve to be the most powerful nation the world has ever seen? makes me wonder if we shouldn't have stayed attached to england and the crown, where chivalry and fortitude won the day.
