Hey tough guy. You act like we are immune to being victimized. Violence begets violence. When we are richous, the world supports us and then we can't lose. Isolate ourselves and you see paying for the war can break us, just like russia was broken. So now they are retuning the favor.
This is devoid of context.
You presume the world itself is righteous.
Just because a lot of people may be doing a certain thing doesn't mean they are correct.
We are famous for our airstrikes, yet we were outraged that they flew planes into our buildings.
Again, devoid of context.
Our strikes are to mitigate violence. Once jihadists assume control of an area the violence does not stop. They victimize thei own and use that area to spread violence to other areas not under their control.
We are mad that 3000 died on sept 11 but are ok that 1 milion iraqis have died. Imagine your mother is killed in a air strike in basra and you don't have powerful military to go pay her killers back. Could you become a suicide bomber?
1. your figure is absolute horsecrap, unsupported by any real science. 1 in 4 Iraqis have not been killed
2. We aren't killing the Iraqis; we;re the ones keeping al Sadr and AQI from killing Iraqis and even the Iraqis know this.
3. We waged a war that lead to the deaths of 300,000 Americans after 2,500 were killed when all the attackers wanted to do was assume unimpeded control of their Pacific empire. Overall that war killed 55 million
Again: It's the context
Piece is patriotic. War only when necessary. Diplomacy first and as soon as possible after the bombs stop.
Yeah, and when the killers refuse to be reasoned with?
How many Carter/Chamberlain moments do you need before you become too embarrassed to repeat the same mistakes in the face of the obvious evidence?
Do you even consider that the gop emptied the treasury needlessly? its called war for profit. maybe half of what they spent was fraud. This spending has a lot to do with our economic mess. Do you even realize it?
Oh good grief.
This country was multiple trillions in debt well before Bush ever made the scene. This may come as a shock to you but history did not start November 2, 2000.
If you honestly believe that we're as evil and imperial as shogun sputters do something. Step away from the computer and do SOMETHING.
No, you think the president doesn't have that much to do with the economy. lol
No. presidents are quite capable of wrecking economies. Just ask Chavez.
