For standing up to the US. The US wants to send defense systems into turkey - the closest NATO member state (in my knowledge) to Iraq. But they make the valid argument that this is practically inplying that war is inevitable.
I would like to buy each of the countries a drink, for doing what no-one else could. America wants to control the world, and they will, being able to attack who they want, unless there are more countries like France, Germany and Belgium!
viva la France!

#2 You're cheering for two countries that made a profit off of money that was supposed to go for buying medicine for the Iraqi people.
Come back to Politics when you have a brain.
#2 uk and us sold him all the weapons that he used to gas his own people 20 yrs ago, didn't condemn him then, but use it against him now - smell the hypocrasy
I'm sure people are out to make a profit in any country. I'm also sure we have to hit Al Qaeda in a lot of ways....including by hitting countries that enable them.
:mad:
The regulars on here have been courteous to you since you joined and have discussed your posts and attempted to be civil even if you hold a very different view point....
There is no need to be so agressive and rude to someone who is making a valid point when many of the points you raise are questionable at best........
Your first point is irrelevant, secondly, explain how they should have acted.........
No one holds back regarding America on here. And there's nothing balanced about the opinions on here.
As far as pro-Communist thinking...bring it on.
What may I enquire do you know about Marx?
I am not a communist
Actually I think this forum is quite well balanced, unlike some of your arguments.........
Come now pnj, you began on these boards displaying a capacity for independent thought, don't put blinders on at such a young age, you may end up feeling incredibly foolish down the road.
pnj, regrettably, I must side with Toadborg here. Obviously, I'd like that feeling to go away as soon as possible.
Your posts exhibit a remarkable degree of naivety, and often are based on simple, soundbite premises. Shyboy has demonstrated the same level of argument as you, and you ask him to return when he has a brain. Ironic.
Perhaps you may wish to consider that you may challenge everyone to a debate on here, but unlike your beloved US of A, you don't hold half as many cards as you think you do, and were it to come to it, you'd be quite cheerily flattened.
Don't tempt us
Pro-communism has nothing to do with it. Marx's thoughts are widely read & studied, and not just by communists. I suggest you read them. I know I enjoyed examining them.
Toadborg: I seem to recall that particular statement as a pro-Modernist slogan? Am I wrong?
My quoted comment concerns the effects of capitalism on the traditions and values of society that Marx believed would be fundamentally changed by capitalism.....
I suppose that can be interpreted in several ways, depends if tou see traditions and structures as 'good' or 'bad'
Are we off topic? :eek:
PNJ, don't remind the euros about WWII it makes them upset (except for England). Only america does stuff for money. The rest of the world is guilt free. America is the root of all evil. The Euros will tell you this at every opportunity. I personnally love to look over our empire and tell my Afghan and soon iraqi slaves to fan faster. When we get our hands on all of that iraqi oil we WILL take over the rest of the world. Hail BUSH!!! Hail the Empire! I soon will be granted appointed governer of all of Africa and I will need some toe the line administrators to help me put things right there. I would have to start you off at the lowest level of imperial administratration but I think you have the potential to go far. Let me know what your decision is, as time is of the essence. The pesky euros are trying to block our imperial conquests.
You guys aren't supposed to get sarcasm
So burry me baby. I might learn something. Besides, without me this site would be even more left and who would you fight with?
*waves flag*
American, of course.
Finally, an example of left wing brain activity published on the WEB.
Nonetheless, at the very least the Left doesnt call those who's opinions it doesnt agree with "traitors". Nice to know there are many of us liberals who support your right to demean those you disagree with.
But I must say pnj, it doesn't seem to be your usual style. Is anyone PMing you replies to post, or perhaps has any of your mates that often sit with you and read this forum taken your place while you went out to grab a sandwich?
No you call us FACSISTS. If you can't stand the heat "Traitor" get out of the kitchen. Take your right wing conspiracy theory and discuss it with the ultra right wing "left wing cospiracy theorists". I have no time for either camp. Show some balance in your discussions, even if only a little. Then I will view you as a poster that may be reasoned with.
I have never stated that the U.S. is blameless. Yet you only blame America. All governments/politicians "spin" information. I judge for myself what is true false or "spin". You see plots and scheming with everthing Bush does, I don't. Our last president lied to the nation and the world. Prove that Bush has.
Just ask the Swedes. They will be happy to tell you how they had to sell iron to the Germans in WWII. How they couldn't possibly have fought against the Nazis. And about how proud they are to have avoided war for over 200 years. Oh, and some will tell you that everything wrong in the world is the fault of the Americans.
Clandestine,
Ever considered moving to Sweden?
If i were to move away from Brussels it would undoubtedly be south to the warmer climates. For now ill stick with the rain and cold, much more excitement here of late anyways.
