I realize this is an attempt at humor...and the joke was funny. However, I am disgusted with the distasteful comments especially when my fellow countrymen are fighting and dying for people we do not even know.
Yes is it for people we don't even know, but they are not the Iraqis, they are what the media calls world leaders. You seem like someone that will follow them into the abyss, like lemming in California. This war is unjustified and unprovoked, and the WHOLE WORLD knows it !, why don't you ?
This joke is totally appropriate for the times in which we live, and you know what, at least one third of the world knows what the war is about really, one day when you wake up with the "holy" revelatin that the war was for oil, you are still worng.
What's more our government in our name is using depleted uranium weapons, and that is a war crime. If anyone else did it we would jump down their throat, even if they didn't attack us ! The world outside of the US can also see that we are the biggest promoters of disamament and nuclear non-proliferation, except for us, the only country that has ever actuallu USED a nuclear device aggressively.
I can take nothing away from the brave Men and Women who are fighting these battles, which they believe are for us. I commend them to the highest degree, but they are really fighting to make the rich and powerful more rich and powerful.
Projection, in the psychological sense, is a trait shared by almost all numans, one tends to think other are similar to himself. Being a really honest person coupled with a bit on naivety is the recipe for convincing you we need to go halfway across the globe to enforce our borders.
If the US, England and Israel had not pursued their interventionalist policy in the middle east for the past few decades we would have no terrorism. England seems to think that she can decide who gets what in the entire world, the Balfour Declaration is proof positive. The state of Israel, the product of that document is now uneasy with Osama and Saddam, but they were buddy buddy before and OUR tax dollars helped to get/keep them in in power.
Strange how it is OK for some countries to have nukes and not others, and the country we turn a blind eye to their weapons program is one that blatently attacked our best spy ship in 1967 (USS Liberty) just so we didn't know what they were doing, which was massacering people.
You more of a Patriot than me because you go RAH RAH RAH for the war, I think not. This is a total waste of our countrymen's blood. I VALUE THEM MORE THAN THAT !
Now who supports the troops more ? One who would bring them home or one who would send them to die ?
