US/Iraq
Bazoukas:
Osama I believe got pissed of because US troops set foot on the holly grounds or whatever.
If the US troops wouldnt set foot, Osama would find something else to be pissed about.
And just think about this. Russia invaded Afghanistan and they leveled the whole place down.
Did you know that the Afganis did not always live on the desert under piss poorcamping tents?
Did you know that before the Russias stormed in, they had a life? Like Fashion shows, theater, music, things that we Western people still have.
If the US refused help when the Afganis asked then it would be the reverse "Ohhhh look at those Big Bad Americanos. They dont help anybody."
And on top of that I would like to add, I am sick and tired of people saying about Vietnam. Have we forgot about Russia's "Vietnam"? Have we forgoten why the whole country went to chaos? Because of the Russian invasion. Thats why.
At least US now is helping Vietnam economicaly (big time)and they have good releationships. Vietnam Vets are visiting Vietnam and they meet with men that fought face to face.
Did Russia did any of this?
I am not trying to downplay the Russian people. As far as I am concerned Russians deserve alot of respect from what they had to put up with during WWII, when they had to fight with the butcher politics of Stalin and the same time they had to fight the Nazis.
I just brought this as an example.
I promise to shutup now since teh Force of the Penguin loves teh harmony
PS: This is just talk. I hope no one will get offended.

i am not a terrorist just so you know. i do know how to make some nasty things that could be considered terrorism but i dont. I dont personally find hurting (physically) people fun. As i would never intintanally kill someone unless i was forced to. i injoy misslanice things of wrong doing but nothing that i would consider terrorism. ok now back to the subject. All you here in the news now is what or how america is going to do something. How often is canada in the news going to do airstrikes against other countries. Never. I see the fighting in the middle east something that has always been there. Ever since the ottoman (i had byzentine but that was before) empire broke up there has been fighting over land and religion and such. i accept those and i think it is going to stay that way. When america interferes it usally just gets in the way. and makes diffrent people hate us more. i am american and i believe in most things this country stands for. i do not like how they conduct there foriegn pollicy. i believe that should change. and for the whole we are being invaded argument i would not quikly side with you if you ask. i would personally check it out and see what has been happening. maybe your country had been oppersing the other or something like that, then i might go with the other country. and i do think iraq with a nuke is a bad idea but what makes america the one country that gets to control them. since we are the ones that always go in and try to be the good people that makes people hate us. i belive a silent removal of suddam would be much better then an all out attack. lets see yah we are being bomb by america do we launch a nuke at them or suddam is silently taken out of power and we have to large dispute over it. that is the angle i am coming at. some intervention is nessaary but not as much as america does
also thanks calum for defending me and saying i am not a terrorist cause i aint. (besides maybe what they do in fight club but instead of finacial buildings do redmond washington)

Much thanks to you Flap. I keep forgetting teh truth I can only learn on the internet. You know you start to despise the US and realize they(not the citizens) are the badguys, but you slowly become accepting of them. Problem is, some of the anti-US info on the internet will be false, how do we know what to believe?
Instead of just labeling US actions as "securing resources", such a document would suggest US as truly a monster(world domination, as this article suggests). I thought this shit only happened on X-files.
Fuck, 40 countries is a little high I think.
PS:I would be totally sticking up for the US right now if I hadn't been taught otherwise by some people I've argued with before on the net.

woh hold on, not washington. i live just north of seattle. But i have 2 family members that work in microsoft (they both hate the software, dont support it in any way other than being the receptionist for some high level dude, and cleaning up after lunch) they are innocent. You'd be insane to ask anyone to attack microsoft. sure they are wrong, but not enough to deserve death. what's wrong with you?
shuiend:
stryker did you read my comment on that? have you seen fight club? i would do it in the middle of the night and make sure that no one was in the buildings of microsoft that would be blown up. i have no intentions of killing people that way. i personally think it is wrong. But that would be the ultimate way of microsoft eradication
