Is it okay for America to support 'freedom fighters'?

Question

Like in Afghanistan against the Russians?
They were fighting a 'foreign occupation', right?
But, the Russians regarded these 'fighters as 'insurgents/terrorists', right?

So, taking that line of logic, it must be okay for Iran to support the 'freedom fighters/terrorists' in Iraq, right?
They are fighting a 'foreign occupation', right?

It was okay for Bin Laden to do American bidding in Afghanistan, but not Iran/Syria's bidding in Iraq?
These countries are declared 'terrorist states', right?
And the US?

I smell hypocrisy!
And you?

Answer 1

Americans supported the IRA for years. It was only when their own citizens were slaughtered by "Freedom Fighters" on 9/11 that they stopped, as they realised it actually wasn't very nice having your ordinary men and women murdered en masse by people with a grudge against your Government.

Yeah I smell hypocrisy too. America stinks of it.

Answer 2

The American support of the “Afghan Freedom Fighters” when the Russians invaded Afghanistan could have been more do with getting back at the Russians for their backing and supplying weapons to the North Vietnamese during the Vietnam war.

Answer 3

I think that you are quite confused, one thing is to fight an occupation and another is to fight for freedom.

The reason the soldiers of the west are "freedom fighters" is because Islam states that its mission is to implement a global religious law call sharia, this is the main reason they hate you as an infidel and almost any muslim try to converse people.

I think that you should read more, study more, understand more and be less superfitial cause is a real problem and you are in the middle.

Islam has enjoyed so very much of "disturbed" and indolent people like you that love to confuse gimnasia with magnesia just to look smart while they have a very well stated plan and work hard and together to take what I think is the first gift of nature or God.

Freedom.

I think you are forgetting also who was and are the "people" who fights in Afghanistan in the name of Islam, I would encourage you also, to have more principles and moral and a better knowledge of what is good and bad, for again, to be so superficial.

And by the way, Iran had contribute to kill 1 million people, most of the muslims... i don't think anything can justify this and much less attribute to a "fight for freedom".

Your reasoning is so stupid really...

Answer 4

there's a distinction between a freedom fighter, who basically fights the protection tension or occupational tension of the oppressors, and a terrorist, who brings the combat to innocents. The terrorists generalize greater then the different. they supply concept to all individuals to be the comparable, and are cowards interior the honour that they pass basically after innocents. Do "freedom fighters" do this, nomatter what ingredient they're on, no, "freedom fighters" have some the Aristocracy left. Now, could desire to i'm getting indignant while *all and sundry* is so cowardly and evil to attack innocents? sure, and it extremely is not important what ingredient they're on. i don't hate all Arabs, I despise those cowards who falsely misread the Quran, brainwash their fighters, and kill innocents. Edit: Syrian Orthodox... Do me a prefer for me and pass to the closest patriarch. tell him your ideals. he assist you to be attentive to to get out of his workplace. Muslims have faith that Jesus replaced right into a earnings, as a result, have not got here upon Jesus. learn some grammar, and somewhat approximately your very own faith. Then possibly we could have an powerful communicate. Edit back (you're lack of information extremely is rarely-ending): sure, Allah translated ability "the single God", yet that doesn't make Allah a real god. Allah is a faux god. Muslims do not worship the comparable god as Christians, they worship yet another. basically through fact a pagan calls their gods the actual gods does not propose that they are. The Cult of Athena in Rome 2500 years in the past could have noted as Athena "the single actual God" does that propose that they have been worshiping the actual god, no, it ability that they have been pagans worshiping a faux Idol. back, learn your very own faith, and a few grammar. Then we can communicate this, and doubtless you will comprehend what's somewhat happening.

Answer 5

the us has american citizens actively working with "freedom fighters" who are against governments they consider allies in the middle east including those who are trained by iran and hezbollah and killed policemen as well as other innocent people , the same american citizens were out with them in public . the same goes for britain. when these terrorists are caught the west interferes and they are given refuge away from proper trials in their native countries.
it's not just invading iraq or helping bin laden & co in the past.
the west calls it democracy, the victims of these freedom fighters and ordinary citizens resent the west for it and call it helping terrorists and meddeling in the affairs of other countries . the governments turn the other cheek because they know that fighting the west will only cause more harm for the people and will give the west an excuse to turn their countries into another iraq.

Answer 6

To America, or to any major power, a 'freedom fighter' - for the most part- is anyone who does further their agenda. If they do not, then they are labeled 'terrorist'.

Edit: As to Americans supporting PIRA - as I've said before, if the Brits weren't illegally occupying the six and if Catholics had been given their civil rights when they marched for them, would have been no need for PIRA.

Answer 7

your hyporcroisy nose works well.. all i can say is that so long as thier is a profit for the USA in any endevour military or not, the usa will always ride bothsides of right and wrongto gain pwer and profit,

you can spell hypocrisy bt saying American goverment or simply spell G W BUSH..

this is why he makes the rules as he goes . a different rule or conciquence or reward for the same action according to the needs of US power and greed

Answer 8

this is what i believe , in any war time certain group of people will do everything and anything to protect their country's.

Like French resistance, now i will not mention other groups, due to its nature of what in originally caused it, for some groups to do what ever it was necessary for their own country.

we should not ever forget what is the real cause of certain things, in certain times and places.

Iran is not the only country who helps the terrorists/freedom fighters, SAUDIS are doing the same thing but no one mention it, no one is saying what kind of agreement is going on between US and Saudis not just now way way before the first golf war.

so we can call it what ever names or labales , still whom ever
wishes to believe differently will do so.

the point of hypocrisy has lost its meaning to long ago.

Answer 9

No. Taking that line of logic; the government would have to support homo freedom fighters too.

Answer 10

the americans were supporting the IRA for years and giving money to help 'The Cause' after 9/11 they realised maybe having your citizens blown up and now their troops killed in the name of religion really wasnt so great!!!
