"WAR is a racket.Misleading title. Should read:
Why I Hate the US
"It always has been.
It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives."
Why I hate War.
Survival of the fittest, baby!!!
Move to Switzerland, Yella'.
But, meanwhile, appreciate those that have fought and died in the bloodiest wars in history to give you the right to be a Pinko.
They hate us because we're free. That's the main thing. I mean, seeing their homeland occupied by our military might annoy them, but the main thing is, they're jealous of our wealth and our freedom.

that has nothing to do with it. that's a facile explanation that has little to do with reality.
why do i care what ron paul says about foreign policy? he's simplistic and naive on the issue.
thanks for playing.
your response was really enlightening.

Jealousy of our freedom and wealth would seem to pale in significance, no?

Light doesn't penetrate everything. You have to open your eyes to see.
Check the dates again.Ummm, and wasn't it the U.N. (the one you Leftists worship), not the U.S., that imposed those sanctions? Why yes it was, as a matter of fact. But please, explain to me how "Rich American parasites who profit from war" are responsible for Saddam Hussein diverting oil-fpr-food money from Iraqi civilians to his military (there's incontrovertible evidence he did that, as you know). I swear, you're a one trick pony; all you know how to do, is bash America, because it isn't the communist workers' paradise your little Trotskyite heart desires.Are we responsible for these dead Iraqis?Could some of the idiot brigade here explain to me just how it matters to a dead man, whether he is killed by a "made for profit" bomb or bullet, or the "made by forced labor" variety? As far as I know, either will kill you just as dead.
By the way, the figures some of you are using for dead Iraqis would make us responsible for every Iraqi who has died since 1991, including those who died of natural causes.I hardly think we have had troops in-country there for enough of that time to be responsible for all of that. Then again, one of the Lefites here told me we were responsible for all of the murdering and torturing the VC did in Vietnam; said our being there "made them do it", so maybe, we made Saddam murder his own people too, or kill them through neglect, and somehow, that's America's fault as well. Next, I suppose you'll say we caused the tsunami in the Indian Ocean, or the last earthquake in Chile, or the earthquake and tsunami in Japan; why not, since you blame America for everything else that goes wrong around the world? I know it's a bit much to ask the Left to quit exaggerating when it comes to trashing America, but could we at least dispense with the outright lies?
What threat did they pose to your children?
Why should anyone be allowed to profit from their murders?
"These results provide strong evidence that the Gulf war and trade sanctions caused a threefold increase in mortality among Iraqi children under five years of age. We estimate that an excess of more than 46,900 children died between January and August 1991. (N Engl J Med 1992;327:9316.)"

and you and george the brain dead antisemite terrorist supporter should get an education on the subject area you're discussing before you make ridiculous statements.

Awesome answer! It's dismissive and vaguely insulting yet can't be countered in any way. Because you haven't said anything. Nice!

That was sarcasm on my part George. Of course you are right. And so is Ron Paul. I've yet to find a neo-con sympathizer who will honestly answer how they would feel if the UN were occupying our homes. My guess is our rednecks would put the Islamic Fundamentalists to shame in terms of angry carnage.

By the way, how you YOU respond if China persuaded the UN to invade the US (let's say it was to put an end to our contentious culture wars). Would you be tickled pink about them building permanent military bases in your back yard?

i'm sorry, we haven't met. i don't debate issues with people who don't know their subject. you don't get substance when you don't know anything.
the better analogy, btw, is what would the US do to terrorist groups of mexicans who were lobbing missiles into california and texas.
now run along.

Because America's for-profit Killing Machine generates nearly half the world's refugees.
Afghanistan with 3.05 million displaced persons followed by Iraq's 1.68 million refugees currently lead the pack but don't underestimate the misery US elites have in mind for Yemen and Libya.
While the US accepts more refugees for permanent settlement than any other country (71,400 in 2010) most of the current burden falls on neighboring states like Pakistan, Iran, and Syria.
Maybe US defense contractors and the richest 1% of Americans should have their income that comes from killing children taxed at a little higher rate than their winnings in Wall Street's casino?

Yep. Like I said, I haven't found one yet that will even consider the question. It's amazing really, because I always thought the ability to see things from the other side's perspective was a fairly basic human empathy skill. But I'm beginning to doubt that assumption.
