This statement just begs for a second opinion. Sorry, but you ARE a pathetic troll. Don't take this personally, it's just objective reality.
The only problem with this one is that we have been looking the other way for at least a decade while the Turks < scoff> our allies < /scoff> have been committing genocide on the Kurds. And we of course, during our support of Iraq (after screwing over Iran and deciding to retaliate against them because they had the audacity to get upset about our meddling in their affairs) we looked the other way while they committed genocide on the Kurds with weapons we provided them.
There aren't enough left to pull it off.
Excellent! Less American casulties to rid the world of trash.
CHINA IS OUR FRIEND AND MOST
ACTIVE TRADING PARTNER.
WAKE UP AND SMELL THE EGG ROLLS
YOU FRIKIN' LUDDITES...
They're probably aging hippies, the pony-tail in the back merely accentuating the refulgence of the rest of their pates. :o)
You're worse than a troll.
You're an android terrorist symp who gives aid and comfort to those who would kill my family.
Who's George Michael? Some girly-man who didn't ask you for a date?

I have a general rule of thumb: when in doubt and needing insight on the enemy of freedom, read either Orwell, Solzhenitsyn, or Lenin. Here I would look at Animal Farm. Clearly some "oppressed minorities" are more equal than others.
Not at all. Apparently though, you are willfully blind to America's harboring of these terorists for years. In fact, during the war with Serbia, we supported explicitly Al Quaeda-trained thugs and terrorists and even helped them create yet another Islamic state in Kosovo.
We were paying Afghanistan to the tune of 125 Million of your dollars (American Tax dollars) annually. Thus we were supporting terrorists.
In 1996 when the Sudan offerred to extradite bin Laden to us, we said no thanks and they evicted him to go live in Afghanistan. We responded by bombing some of their Camels and tents along with an aspirin factory.
And before you tell me this is all Clinton's fault, I'll remind you that in June of this year, Colin Powell himself, with George Bush's tacit approval, sent the Taliban 43 Million dollars of our money.
Cowardice.
Strategy.
Their agenda is increasingly obvious.
Yes. Whether it is particularly "American" or just remains to be seen. It's an extreme form of racism and shows a disregard for human life other than your own. It's rooted in politics rather than anything resembling honor or justice.
But then that is the mark of Empire. Wars fought for political strength rather than for freedom.
Orwellian.
Their soldiers are subhuman and can be expended without so much as a thought.
Afghanistan now cleared for the pipeline, now on to Iraq and the world's second largest oil reserves (Kosovo having also been prepared for the Caspian-Adriatic pipeline). The world's poor (including our own army) are being forced to fight and die for the wealthy. Of course the geniuses here would call me leftist for even daring suggest this, but this was exactly Stalin's policy when swallowing up Central Europe. Then he needed Czech industry to process Russian raw materials, etc. but the approach is the same. Privatize profits, socialize losses (including human ones).
Cowards who are more concerned with the political ramifications of their actions than of the lives they are sacrificing to meet the so-called "objective."
The Cowardice is in the policy. Cowards should never run the military.
Yeah. We's white boys was just foicin' them brown Nothen 'liance to whup up on them othu brown Taliban boys.
You're a hoot Demigod. A real hoot.
