I suspect that OB is scampering off now and probably waiting for some "reaction". that's another word for "whoops"
"What's up with all the editing, OB?"
I'll answer this.
he's scamering off
he didn't get the answer he wanted and didn't want to seem foolish.

(are you from the ME??....thanks) this was his attempt to arrogantly spit on me with his omnipotence. it didn't really work. and in this post I am commenting on canadas arrogance regarding iran. . I am commenting on canadian setiment towards things like iran. I haven't even found something interesting about iran quite yet but when I entered this topic I saw how candian setiement was regarding iran and I am questioning that setiment.
this isn't a new thing with the bush administration. the current situation is just canadian antiamerican canady.
this is fuel for the fire. I sincerely urge you contemplate a little more the potential for the current administration to give credibility to those with a prior dislike.
canada is not in the news so therefor my comments seem like bashing. my comments are in refernce to canadian setiemtn on things like Iran. I am commenting on the canadian viewpoint of iran. most of the comments on this site are about how the US is doing. and I am commenting on my observations about the canadian "agenda" anyone up for DU conversations.??? pleae don't get me started on this.
see for instance ocean breeze will suggest that the US should mind it's own f888ing business and so forth. so I gave an article webaddress of iran asking canda to back off. canada tends to bark at the US all day long. the articale I gave was about the HR violations accused of canada. canada usually huffs around about how horrible the US is and never wishes to have the light on it. (come to think of it one of the posts he edited was what???? his reference to that article and his comment that iran can say whatever they want. now if you notice this would be severly hypocritical of him to sugges tthat iran can say whatever they wish and then turn around and scoff at US policy. you see very subtle. if he who states repeatedly how horrible the US is then turn around and suggests what he did about how iran can say whatever they want.....see canadians like this are ................. mkay. just notice what he edited. I caught him and he didn't like it.
I also dislke the setiment because canada resides within inches of the brder. they are competing and have never gotten the recognition they feel the deserve. and many turn that into dislike with the US. most other nations have defined themselves. canada defines itself by costantly criticizing the US.
but he erased his comments and then ran off .
this is very typical that they can amuse themselves by spitting and then when you questionthem they run away. they're very used to arrogantly demeaning the US. I am telling you that many canadians resent the US . canadas entire existance has been overshadowed bt the US. and I am telling you there definitely is much resentment there.
they don't get world recognition so they can tend to bash the US with little comments. so canadian setiemtn is a litle different then most. they're AGENDA is to rise fro the shadow. and if you going to discuss political agenda canadas must be looked at as well. and they shrivel when you put the light on them.
for many people, the Us is the source of all bad tiings. and they'll find all the dirt on the Us they can and it just done for different reasons than most coutries. I agree with other countries. not canada. it's a different motivation. and I am telling you that they are going to try and take advantage of Us hardship and that is weasely. I am warning you to take caution. I have had a lot of experience with people liek this. they'll put you in the crosshairs.
"such a weird interpretation of things. Ya see, if anyone else decided to move in to help resolve those issues........the US would undermine it......immediately. The world is on to the US uncivilized game and big time. "
"such vanity, egotism/braggacio must be a load to carry around....and would sure prevent one from seeing things objectively."
"It boggles the mind that americans are so complacent about it.....(IF that is what they are) Or maybe not HORRIFIC enough for them....... them being a society that has grown up on violence. Motion picture and real."
"absolutely! and even though many USers would rather face a firing squad then admit it..........they ARE aware of it & it terrifies them. All that bravado for so many yrs.All that braggacio.......for same.......and now no one wants anything to do with them...no one RESPECTS them... and they don't like it all that much.. ( but have yet to face that they "earned" this position)
soon they might be talking to "deaf" ears........if they are not already."
"notice how those that support the bushcon regime maintain their complicit silence ......as these atrocities come to light. If only ONE had the fecking GUTS to admit that there are some serious problems/mistakes and that America has blown it on MANY occasions including now.....it might warrant a particle of respect .
seems they operate on the POWER over PEOPLE as the lust for power has them blinded"
"So who all is on the FECKING u.s HIT LIST now?? Syria, Iran, "
"What's up with all the editing, OB?"
"the hypocracy/lies are overwhelming. ......but alas transparent...
IF the US had any respect before the Iraq INVASION of choice....it is highly doubtful it has any now. It may have nations that still go along with it......(out of fear or whatever).....but respect??? No way.
but that shouldn't be a concern for them..as they fill in the gaps with arrogant self congratulations at every opportunity.. "
"What IF.........a nation.....was allowed to progress at it's own rate towards the type of society it wants to be.... True change is from within. WHAT IF ......the US learned to mind its own fecking business and only responded when ASKED for assistance???
"It is arrogant/stupid to assume that one can impose democracies or anything else on another. Shoving "democracy" military style down Iraqis throats has proven that and a lot more. How can the Iraqis evolve into a society that represents them as a culture, etc when it has the US in it's territory , stealing their resources , killing their inhabitants ......with no fecking intention of leaving.?? "
Iraq will not ever be Iraq again. What was a nation rich in culture and history has been destroyed .....by US fecking bombs and to be rebuilt with US cheap "plastic." Heck , the US just can't wait to have a string of MickeyD's in Iraq to show the world that they introduced their version of "civilization" into Iraq. ( the fast food society .....equates US civilization.."
ah gee, poor little baby "americans"......getting "offended". They sure as F*** don't care who THEY offend, insult and castigate.
what a bunch of whiners. another version of the "poor me" syndrome?? Sheesh."
"but the essence of this is correct. Ca should be tactful , diplomatic and strategic (smart) in how it deals with its adolescent neighbor. No need to help them look worse than they make themselves. So , yes, more tolerance and patience is the order of the day.......... "

"so many parrallels between the current US and the old Roman Empire attitude. Pride, arrogance , short sightedness.Lust for power and wealth, youth, beauty , loss of principles .yet lots of "ceremony" and "patriotism" and mostly, the "all about Me /US " thinking......like the rest of the planet is just chopped liver for the US to make into pate......devour at will.--using hi tech "gladiators". Oh those glory days........and how they do end. Nothing lasts forever. "
"seems that some serious self reflection/introspection is called for on the "America's " part now. As until it does , it might not comprehend the angst it creates, that results in the anger now."
"No.1........It is rather mindboggling how much "interference" the US has done in its relatively short life span."
"Quote:
I don't see the level of arrogance Americans display in other people. Yes they are noisier about their arrogance but also they are more arrogant with their noise. "
nice touch.
"this is of course a generalization. But that is the pattern of things.......The noisiest are the ones that provide the "reputation""
"mog: nice to see that ITN finds it so funny. That alone portrays the "American " attitude. Oh well , it is his/their problem. If they like it that way.. so be it. "
anyway I got tired of trying to find a post where OB actually said anything other than criticizing the US. if you can find one please let me know. I looked and was unable to really find something that didn't insult the US. but if you can I'd like t hear it.
"they aren't saying that America sucks, only that its current direction does. "
please dont fall for this.
