With every post you make on this forum, you're coming across more and more as a bully. You're trying to blind people here to your constant attempts to overpower and discredit anyone who challenges your point of view. You're also wasting your time trying to bully me, because I see straight through you.

I have many friends who are American, and I have many friends who are Soldiers. I take comfort in the fact that your opinions, and the way you express them, are not reflective of any of them.

I look forward to your default response.

Still got your panties in a wad I see, first you're in helping Ghost accuse America of using its might to force our ways and views on the world. Then you accuse me of bullying people who challenge me or my views, and you finish by claiming I'm unlike any Americans you know. It sounds like you can't make up your mind where you stand or remember what you spouted off in the last sentence. Apparently it seems the only thing you're sure of is you don't like me. Gosh darn it, now I'll never be able to sleep at night.

Michael Wright

no, I don't imagine you will

Ghost

this is tiring and not worth commenting on. i can only hope the rest of the US forces dont think the way you do TTEscrima. I somehow think they dont think like you.
disgraceful.

Take it however you want, you got aggressive and called things idiotic instead of commenting on the actual errors you got emotional and gave me more ammo. I share your views and you couldn't convince me, but you got so worked up you made poking you fun.

Ghost

its just an idiotic thread and an idiotic arguement, no one in their right mind would agree with you and clearly no one does.
learn from it and move on.
its not an argument worth pursuing.

Now whose not living in reality, if you think no one believes that shit why do suppose Iraq and Afghanistan are currently chock full of foreign troops?
Far more people with the power to keep our troops there disagree with you than me bub, otherwise they wouldn't be there. If no Muslim terrorists had flown planes into the WTC, or strapped bombs to themselves in public places blowing women and children to bits then the president couldn't have mobilized the American forces to attack in the first place regardless of what you think his real reasons for doing so were. Flipping out over comments on a forum or a cartoon in the paper just furthers the stereotype. Someone needs to realize that by showing the world they're willing to kill their own people like todays suicide bombing at a wedding they make it much easier for people to sell the idea you want WMD's to obliterate us.

Ghost

we went to war in iraq over WMDs that dont exist.
that has been proven and is known to be wrong. We went to war with afganistan because....well i dont really know why. i think it was because someone thought bin laden was in afganistan and therfore the whole country should be attacked.
doesnt make a lot of sense.
What does make sense is that our politicians like to find crap excuses to attack other countries for economic or strategic gain, perhaps even to be seen to be doing something.
Its quite clear that its very hard to fight terrorism as you dont have countries directly responsible. so in a way it doesnt make sense to attack anyone.
So far our terrorist attacks have been by people in our own countries, in our case in the UK they have been British citizens as far as i remember.
So whos fault is that?

To me this is a tiny minority of lunatics that are able to do a lot of damage. I dont see how attacking entire countries is a rational response, especially when most of these guys were born in our countries.

So what do we do, maybe we should have a look at saddam and bin ladens history and see how they got to where they are... and what do you know. America put them there.

What do we acheive by attcking iraq and afganistan? is the threat of terrorism less now?
Does it deter the terrorists, who afterall are already in our countries. it doesnt make any sense to me and it doesnt make sense to many others either.
