REMEMBER THAT THIS BELIEF YOU FIGHT SO HARD TO MAINTAIN AND DEFEND WAS ORIGINALLY A PLAN TO LIBERATE THE PEOPLE OF IRAQ AND NOW YOU SHOW NO RESPECT, CONCERN OR REGARD FOR THEIR DIGNITY AND FEELINGS.

Please cite how our invasion of Iran was illegal?
That was a pretty funny comment Jillian. They certainly thirst for more death and blood shed with the same vigilance that television has conditioned them to view it with a desensitized heart and a smile and have the nerve to call it entertainment.
Anyways its illegal for the fact that it was unprovoked according to the Geneva Convention codes of conduct, which mattered to American policy and global reputation prior to Bushes arrival in office. Its always understood that NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED, these rules would be followed. You dont opt out of a global agreement because you feel your suffering is greater or more important than the rest of the worlds. Thats just arrogant. Like rules of war it has (humorously I might add) rules with a humanitarian aspect. When America was a part of the G.C. it up held such principles (example Bosnia/ Yugoslavia conflict). Despite the fact that it was STILL A WAR there were rules that were to be followed. And dont give me your 9-11 rhetoric. Americans have been dying for years by acts of Middle Eastern based terrorism. The only thing the events on 9-11-01 did was cause Americans to briefly crumble with humility and mediocrity. Which caused the majority of Americans to silently forfeit its core values to the Federal Government in exchange for more bloodshed and its total and complete immunity from any accountability because the world was supposed to understand how we must feel. For a nation that supposed to be under the guidance of the god of The Holy Bible, it seems pretty apparent the lessons of suffering went over their heads. Shitty shit happens, big or small the principle concept it to accept it and come out a better
not bitter person. The Bible, in regards to suffering for the faith, says in Romans 12: 19-21 Beloved do not avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God for it is written, Vengeance is mine, I will repay says the Lord. To the contrary if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty; give him something to drink; for by doing you will heap burning coals on his head. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Principles G.W. draws supposed identity with, yet in action completely contradicts.
Going to Afghanistan was the right and just reaction but drawing a connection between the events of 9-11-01 to Iraq is and was proven to be absurd. When almost all the terrorist that did those despicable acts where from Saudi Arabia Bush remained bedmates for the simple fact of oil. Iraq is his personal vendetta and possibly his only hope from day one as President Of The United States to make a legacy for himself. So now that its clear that Iraq and Saddam had no affiliation with the events of 9-11-01 and Osama Bin Laden so you tell me. WHAT WAS THE PROVOCATION OF WAR ON BEHALF OF IRAQ?

More power to you. You're lucky you live in a country where I can't trot over to your house in the middle of the night, drag you out of bed, dig a ditch and drop you into it.
I suppose you or anyone one really could if they wanted to. I do live in a place that I dont have to lock my doors at night. It is not to say that they wouldnt go unpunished for their actions.
But I do live in a country where you can hitch a ride and wind up at the back end of a pickup truck, bound by chains at the legs and dragged to a cruel and horrible death. Im sure nearly everyone that died by the acts of terrorism died much quicker and painlessly. I dont support terrorist but I dont think every one is one either. Some, like yourself, are trenched in a belief, an assumption, a GENERALIZATION that starts out as a seed of self-pity. When we react against hate with hate, we are only playing into the hands of our enemies. You talk about Jesus like you know him. Seems to me like most everyone else, youve made it to fit into your thinking. If thats what you call a relationship with the lord than it must be pretty one sided because its apparent you dont know him.
And since were on the subject of the blessing of America. Your lucky to live in a country where you can spit every little ridiculous thought and opinion you have from behind your computer without having any accountability. You can spread your racist, elitist, its all about me and mine bullshit without correction or reprimand from friends, family and co-workers; unless you work at the White House. In that case Id say birds of a feather flock together. Seriously though, do you say anything you write over the net out loud before you hit the send button? You should try a method I call the idiot filter. Thats when you say something aloud and listen to yourself in third person and truly discern the intellectual, emotional and spiritual basis of it. Ill refrain from making further assumptions about what kind of person you are. You do a well enough job with that already.

But you don't, so you can post all the pro-terrorist drivel you like, without fear of annihilation
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone my friend.
And I'm not pro-terrorist but have you ever heard the term "know your enemy"? Perhaps upon further examination you'll begin to understand, not agree with them; big difference, but UNDERSTAND why they feel the way they do.

He told people to support their government. He did nothing to challenge the government
He did nothing to challenge the government?
His state of existing alone was a challenge to the government. From birth they tried to kill him for fear that they would lose their power since he was prophesied as The King Of The Jews
If your going to talk about scripture at least know what it says.
Jesus never said anything in regards to supporting your government either. Matthew 22:15-21 reads. Then the Pharisees went and plotted to entrap him in what he said. So they sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know you are sincere and teach the way of God in accordance with truth, and show deference to no one; for you do not regard people with partiality. Tell us, then, what you think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to the emperor, or not? But Jesus aware of their malice, said, "Why are you putting me to the test, you hypocrites? Show me the coin used for the tax". And they brought him a denarius. Then he said to them, "Whose head is on this and whos title?" They answered, "The emperor's". Then he said to them, "Give therefore to the emperor the things that are the emperor's and to God the things that are Gods."
Christ attitude towards nations and kingdoms where that they really werent. The only kingdom he recognized was His Fathers and that ALL nations were tools of the Prince of the Air.
When he was tempted for forty days and nights. The third temptation was when Satan showed Jesus all the kingdoms and riches of the world. Satan promised Jesus all these things if Jesus worshiped him (Satan), thus relinquishing his authority and allegiance to his Father God. Of course Jesus responded by saying "thou shall worship The Lord God and shall serve no others" According to the scriptures, the kingdoms and nations of the world are Satans to give.
It REALLY bothers me that people around the world have this belief that all Americans are like you. You should be ashamed of yourself. Your a classic example why too much television is bad.
Btw, Shogun, nice piece out there. You too Maineman.
