So whats your point? that war didn't bring an end to Nazism and bring democracy there? It may had not been the reason the US joined the war, but it was force that ended nazism.
Yes, it was force that ended Nazism.
Combined force of Canada, England, France, Russia and the US.
ThatÂ’s my point.
What was Nazism doing?
Unilaterally pushing their “ubermenschen” - superhumans - policy down everybody’s throat, with sweet talk of “lebensraum” - a certain minimum amount of space for every individual to live in - and at gunpoint for people that didn’t get the sweet talk.
That, again, is my point.

More typical Eurotrash talk. Most Americans don't give a rats ass about other countries, we certainly don't want to rule them. We don't like having our troops on other countries like Iraq any more than Iraqis. But we do it because we believe we have to in order to protect ourselves. I don't care how Euros, Muslims, Asians, or Africans choose to govern themselves. The problem is we live in a technological age where its getting easier and easier for individuals or small groups to commit mass murder. We are NOT going to stand by and let rogue nations build nuke factories to sell to terrorists. And the best way to prevent this is to promote democracy, or governments that can be held accountable. Personally I think its all a waste of time, we should had just nuked all these dumbfucks like Kim Jung Il and Saddam, but I am in the minority as a right wing fanatic so we have to do it the hard way.
Good thing you represent a minority then: you are exactly the same as those suicide bombers on the fringes of the muslim world. Yeah, your reasons for unbridled violence are different, but the outcome is the same. Useless slaughter of innocent bystanders.
On the one hand thereÂ’s these suicide bombers wanting Islam to take over the world or whatever, and on the other hand thereÂ’s people like you, that shit their pants about some fantasy threats and advocate extreme violence to end these threats.
Did you read up to here? Fantasy threat. What do you think makes a “rogue” nation? A nation that does “roguish” things, like stealing items and assassinating people for personal gain? I wonder, enlighten me.
You seem to be happy enough about the prospect of people choosing their own governments. So why is your government, in your name, fighting Hugo Chavez of Venezuela? Because they don’t like communists? Because he is elected by an overwhelming majority of Venezuelans? Or because he is a “rogue” of some sort.
Yes, it is easier for random f*ckheads to commit murder on an everlarger scale, because of our technological advancements. So, what should we do? Go back to the stoneage?
No matter how many of these people you identify, they will keep on coming. And they sprout everywhere on earth. Not just in muslim nations either.
More and more in muslim nations however, thatÂ’s a fact. How can this be?
Are they insane? If they are, why didnÂ’t this start a couple of 100 years ago instead?
It must be something else, something to do with Israel perhaps, and their continued oppression of the Palestinians. Or in the words of David Ben Gurion (the first Israeli Prime Minister): "
If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti - Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault ? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?"
Duh.
"
Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it." - Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, October 3, 2001.
Welcome to Iraq.
As to your last remark:
Yeah, nuke them. Seems like the best idea IÂ’ve heard in ages.
F*ck the toxic clouds, the fact that they will spread across the globe leaving disease and birth deformities in it's wake for millennia to come. Hey, itÂ’s a sacrifice IÂ’m willing to make. We all should be willing to get deformed children that lead a painful and short life. Sure it hurts your feelings as a parent, but Saddam is gone now. So youÂ’re safe.
Better safe than sorry, right?
