blahaaaaaaaaaaa. You cracked me up.
Yes, Iraq is better off without Saddam. Still doesn't make this war acceptable.
The US (and the world) would be better off without Dubya in power. Would you sanction a war on the US to achieve regime change?
Somehow I can imagine you making the same arguments in 1938, 1939, 1940, 1941 and right up through 1945...
Really doesn't matter, does it? You don't have any say in the matter.
Aladdin.
We'd be left to the Muslim perverts who offer up their young as human sacrifices. We haven't gone far enough. We need to give Syria and Iran a choice: either make the call for Jihad illegal as it is in Russia and now the UK, or we use our special ops troops to assinate the Muslim clerics calling for Jihad.
Well maybe if you stopped killingh them they might stop killing you?
Ever thought how you might break the circle of violence rather than perpetuate it?
They murdered our military people in the Middle East and then made the VERY BIG mistake of killing innocents in America. The time of the Muslim extremist, perverts, is over with.
And I somehow had imagined you were intelligent enough to discard comparisons between piss-poor Saddam Hussein and the Nazi regime as the pathetic bollocks they are.
But I see you are as easily deceived as many of your fellow citizens.
I think that the point being made is that you can say the same thing "So Germany is better off without Hitler etc" as you can about Saddam. No direct comparison between the two has been made.
Fact is Iraq is better off without Saddam. And he would still be there if the US had done what you wanted.
Whatever reasons the US may have had in going to war they have achieved a level of freedom which the Iraqis haven't seen for over 25 years. Dismiss that if you will, but by the looks of things the Iraqis won't. And it's their opinion which really counts.
The US has to root out the cancer of religious extermism , it must show the Arab world that it will no longer be tolerated.
This new blunt way of dealing with them is excellent.
Either stop these terrorists yourself , or we'll do it for you.
:rolleyes:
Matabdore, you would do yourself a world of good by doing some in depth research into matters before spouting presumtpuous nonsense such as the above.
The governing principle of our long running ME policy has been duplicity and that is what layed the fertile soil for 9/11.
What BS. If duplicity was the issue, why wasn't Saudi Arabia itself attacked? Syria? France? Britain? Germany? Russia?
Maybe because they aren't the biggest target out there.
A little more research on what makes terrorists tick instead of the transference of your own ideas and assumptions might assist you in not making such an ass of yourself.
Terrorism has NOTHING to do with US policies. It never has, and it never will.
Terrorism has everything to do with power and hate. If the policies were different, the US would be hated for those policies. Because the policies are just an excuse, and always have been.
Just as they were for terrorism against the Egyptians, the Romans, the French, the Russians and the British...oh, and the Israelis too...
Do you think that might have something to do with the US being targeted?
So if the US and Israel stopped murdering Palestinians like cattle then the suicide bombers would carry on?
That is comblete BS.
The author of that column has a bit more expertise in the area than I do, but from my observations and experience in the middle-east, I agree with his points. Yes, suicide bombers will continue. Yes, fingers will continue to be pointed at the United States. No matter what.
You don't think so? Go visit. Stay a while, learn the culture. Join a terrorist group and listen to what they teach and how they teach it.
Or just read the studies on terrorism done by Scotland Yard, the FBI and Interpol.
Power and hatred. That is the fuel. Not causes.
Not one fucking thing. But then again, I actually deal with terrorists, and aren't making judgements without any data.
The old passion for killing jews? Complete BS. Only the seriously radical muslims are like that. Thats like saying that slaughtering Palestinians is the the jews indulging their 'old passion' for killing arabs.
(of whom sharon could be cited as a radical jew)
Such as what? Bombing a hotel that was used as a military headquarters?

which particular incident are you refering to?
I see you know what I mean already. Not accusations just facts.
Unfortunately, the site fails to give a definition of terrorism that it uses in compiling this list.
Another thing. Defining terrorism is a little difficult as we all have different views on what constitues a terrorist. Can you imagine asking the question in Belfast or Palestine where half the population would have vastly different answers to the other half?
Sorry, I disagree. It is this claim that allows people to make the ridiculous statement that "one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter".
Very true. Che Guevara is the embodiment of that phrase.
