Luckily that feeling has long since subsided. I hate noone, but I do still fear the Ustashe.
I'm no better than anybody, and nobody is better than me.
You'r OK with me getoffmylawn. :)
The rabid would-be murderers of women and children on this thread are a disgrace to our country.
Yes, them. This word refers to the people that actually hate America because America's foreign policy has succeeded in either killing people of their ethnic group or worse, killed people that they knew and loved.
You can't generalize from U.S. foreign policy, over many administrations, to the diverse ranges of people comprising U.S. civilians. All "Americans" are hated and blamed because of U.S. foreign policies? That's rediculous.
This sentance is sort of incoherant, but I believe what you're trying to say is, "You can't generalize about a U.S. foreign policy that has covered many different administrations and served a very diverse array of citizens." If I'm wrong about what you were trying to say, please correct me.
Anyway... Sadly, yes you can. America's foreign policy since WW2 has consitantly terrorized citizens of foreign countries or supported regimes that saw to it that citzens of either their own country or neighboring countries were terrorized. There may be some superficial differences between how the different adminstrations have conducted their foreign policies, but for the most part South America, the Middle East, and most recently Eastern Europe have all suffered at the hands the hands of America's foreign policies without much variance no matter if it's a Republican or Democrat in the Oval Office.
There were most likely many many people killed on Tuesday who question and oppose various political policies of our federal government.
I have no doubt, and even if they didn't question and oppose various political policies of our federal government they didn't deserve to die the way they did. But that isn't to say that these murderous animals that has caused us so much heartache are without just cause for much of their anger.
Suppose you have a neighbor that lives across the street and he has two young sons that break into your home and kill two of your daughters. Now suppose that you find out that it was indeed these two young men that have caused you so much pain, but the mayor of your town is a golfing buddy of the two boys' father. Not only does the mayer use his power and influence to halt an investigation of the crime, but even sells the boys a brand new lock picking kit and some shiney new guns. Every attempt you make at aquiring justice within the rule of law meets a brick wall and your anger and frustration build and build until finally you buy your own shot gun and empty cartridge after cartridge into the mayor's family Cadillac one sunny Tuesday morning as his wife drives his two daughters to school. You've killed all three of them. Maybe one of his daughters was actually aware of her father's corruption and dead set against his behavior. I'd feel terrible for what happened to his two daughters and wife, but I'd also still understand the root of your anger. That also doesn't take away from the fact that the mayor is still an ass.
Maybe the swarthy barbarians are morons as well as monsters.
In my opinion, they are most definetely both.
There is a diffierence between apologizing for the Nazis solution to the Jewish problem and understanding why they didn what they did. If we don't reconsider some of the actions of the Jews, it will happen again.
Bah. Poppycock.
Now where have I heard that quote from before? Oh yeah. I remember now. It was a young Palestinian man on CNN right after Isreal bombed the crap out of a refugge camp. Do you think that maybe the "those who support them" might have been a reference to the United States of America?
Please stop plagerising your quotes from Islamic terrorists.
It sounds reasonable to me.
