And I have a picture of me holding one of Saddam's gold AKs. And sitting on his throne in Victory Palace. So what?

You (I believe deliberately) misconstrued my point. If I'm looking for someone to do that, I can just go to the Palestine Hotel and chat with the media. You certainly took everything I said out of context.

One of the reasons it is dangerous here IS because we (the U.S.) are here providing liberty and this spells defeat to the terrorists. Does that make it easier for you to comprehend?

And it's not "crap" what I'm saying so lose the attitude.

And yes, I believe I have a better perspective on what's going on here because I am here. If you can't accept that, you just might be a little thick. I never said nobody else can say anything. Stop using the media's lame tactics of putting words in peoples' mouths. And stop watching the news so much, or at least stop believing them. And post more coherently.

And clean up your room.

It is dangerous there because of folks that will kill anyone aytime to instill fear in those they seek to opress into a following of "loyal subjects of allah".

Wether we are there or not it is dangerous because of these folks and the ideology they retain. You can claim that we are part of the proble as you did so clearly in your post. I took nothing out of context. you stated quite clearly that we are part of the problem and that is simply not the case.

Remember post 59 ??

((((( I said))))
It is not the presence of American ( and other) forces that make it this way...
(((((you said)))))Well, yeah, that is one of the reasons it is dangerous here.

You can claim out of context all you like, that simply is not true. You were quite clear. I dissent that position and explain why.

You sure do like to give alot of orders for someone that claims "I never said nobody else can say anything."

Look man, you said what you said and it was quite clear. Go ahead and try to back out of it and blame me for what you said.

Just because you are there does intiminidate me. I hold my views and I stand behind them partially due to how they are formed.

My position is that it is not our troops presence that causes Bagdahd to be unsafe.

That is your position and you said so. Accept that and move on.
