Now where did I leave off? Oh yes......
What we are really doing there then is waging a religious war against an ideology we don't like and trying to enforce our own ideology!
Perhaps. How about you ask Afghans themselves. Ask the children there is they enjoy going to school and learning, and being able to have more then what they had before. If we were forcing our ideology on them, then we'd be telling them to go Christian. They are keeping their faiths/religion and they are given the opportunity to be in control over their own country. Look up why and how the Taliban came to be there in the first place and you might know how things have thus unfolded.
That will never succeed unless we occupy Afghanistan forever. The USA knows that about Iraq and it's why the neo-cons say they will need to be there for another hundred years. They mean they will need to be there lest democracy takes hold!
And I don't agree with that assumption nor do I agree with them having to keep Democracy in the first place. If we have to remain there for things to stay the way our politicians want, then apparently #1 - they don't want it and #2 - We as Canadians don't want to be there forever. They have every right to renounce Democracy if they so choose to do so. What do you expect the international community will do if Afghanistan "Democractically" chooses to no longer be Democratic? Pressure on the US and other allies with build up and a demand to leave the country. If not, then it will be blaitent oppression on the people of Afghanistan, rather then on the Orginization of the Taliban, and that's the difference.
No, people must decide for themselves who to kill and who to let live. If I were in a war and ordered to kill someone I would shoot the person who gave me the order because, right then and there, they are the biggest threat to my freedom, liberty and life. If I find an enemy and he wishes to kill me then I would take him out before he could take me. If I came upon a soldier who did not fire at me I would not fire at him. I believe in live and let live and in minding my own business.
That's what soldiers usually try to do. If they don't have to shoot and kill someone, they usually won't (Unless they are sick in the head and inproperly trained in disipline) You go to occupy an area for secuity, if the enemy is there and they are not surrendering, suppress them or eleminate them until they do surrender.
Just like bank robbers. The police come in and if they do not surrender and become hostile, they are shot.
I would really think that through if I were you.
The Nazi agenda won but they lost their bid for territory. Do a little research.
The Nazis won - we are nations of Nazi's. We have a unified Europe (what Hitler wanted), we have the white race in power (what Hitler wanted), we employ neo-socialism (now called neo-liberalism), etc... we even have Hitlers smoking bans! We're even bringing back his eugenics and family planning!
The reason Germany could reunite and the Berlin wall fell is that Hitlers dream was realized and the barrier was now pointless.
I'm serious - look into it. The ideology and wording of the modern Reich is different but the objectives are identical.
The only difference is that the majority of the world doesn't want to wipe Jews out anymore - we're focused on certain sects of Muslims instead.
You got to be completely mad into conspiracies to believe any of that.
First off, if you really want to start looking into things, Hitler's ideals were not his own. The ideals which he used came from waaaayyy back when Germania was fighting the crumbling Roman Empire of the time. Look into the 1st and 2nd Reich and understand the core principles within those. It was all for Germany and it's people. It was an ideal of people of a state being devouted to the state, giving their bodies and minds to the State, that the only method of progress and power was through brute force.... all by the Pure Blooded Germans, whom claimed to be the pure race over all others. Germans alone were to be the rulers of the world and that one day one man would make this prophecy come true.
The Berlin wall fell because the Soviet Union fell. There was no more control from them and thus the Westernized side was able to take over the rest of Germany and bring them into Democracy. The Soviet Union went broke, it had nothing to do with people thinking the Nazi's were on the right track.
If what you say was true, then it contradicts their original prophecy, their original dreams and ideals, considdering pure blooded germans are not currently running the world. Their beliefs can be tracked all the way back to when they still believed in Roman Mythology and believed many of the Gods visited their lands, including Thor, whom most at the time considdered they were decendant from.
Trust me, if you want to really know what's going on today, you have to look really far back to fully understand. But that alone is a topic all in itself.
If you truly knew your history, you'd know that the "True Nazi" agenda did not win and is most certainly not our way of life today. There maybe some traits you might think relate to their "Commonly accepted" ideals, but that's no grounds for evidence that it won out, as plenty of other ideals are still kicking around in our societies and methods of government over the years.
If this was the end result of what Hitler had planned for Germany, he'd take that pill and shoot himself in the head all over again.
