US/Iraq
Aaron Ni:
Lecture time!
People ask "Why does everyone hate us?" a lot in these days, you may have asked that yourself, and the answer is quite simple.
People hate US citezens because of the acts the US Government does in US's name.
The US Government backed Osama Bin Laden against the Russian onslaught in their "Vietnam." Afterwards the USG drops the funding and denies any help to Afghanistan (Sp?) after the war is over. If a foriegn country enabled your military to fight against a better equiped enemy then dumped all lines of communication after it was said and done wouldnt you be pissed? Your left cleaning up the mess that the foriegn country made possible.
As stated in posts ahead of me the USG is very nosy, so nosy that they act as if their in charge of the world and they have to be the "Police." The plan for a regime change in Iraq is more of a joke in my opinion. USG sets up puppet government in Iraq so it doesnt look like they're in control of Iraq's government. Then again, I'm not the type who listens to all the misinformation thrown around on CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC (Yuck!) or any other mass media glory hound.
As far as the whole 9-11/Wtc/Terror attacks go I'm not stating my opinion on it. The last time I did that was a week after it happened, I was banned from three different forums, kicked out of a Yahoo group and physically ejected from a Legion Hall in the downtown area.
I really think this post is a bit raw and it takes me a bit to get everything laid out correctly so this wont be my last post.
Dang, I thought I wouldnt get into a political discussion here of all places! :rolleyes:
EDIT: To bazoukas and Stryker.
Someone has plans being finetuned as we speak so stop with your public discussion. PM me if you wish but dont expect anything big.

Good! You should be watching FOX News and listening to Rush Limbaugh.

I don't understand the inference.
Calum:
he's saying you're a lily livered liberal.
this is quite interesting because VoidMain talks a lot of sense, however many right wingers i hear talk horseshit that is poorly thought through and from a skewed perspective. On the other hand left wingers tend to be a lot more radical and have good ideas... which will never get put into practice.
Maybe it's a cultural thing, VoidMain;s opinions remind me of that rarest of things, a realist socialist!
I agree with Aaron by and large as well, just wanted to mention that.
hey, maybe some of you can satisfy my curiosity, do the yanks still all think that Europe is full of "commies"?
