That government was Afghanistan...you know where Osama had his training camps...where he was during 911...the same country the USA aided against Russia's invasion...the invasion lefties don't talk about...
That government; formerly known as the Taliban.
Whaddya mean we don't talk about it? We do. Especially in the context of the US armin the guys that are shooting at them now. That was a bright move.

Yeah...that was f*cking brilliant...
I wonder if part of their CIA sponsored training was that beheading captives has a demoralizing effect on the enemy... 8O
Public executions and leaving bodies as warnings are both techniques that are said to be taught at the School of the Americas. I'm not sure about videotaped beheadings specifically, but they would seem to fall into the same category.
Bravo!! The testosterone BULLIES who speak in childhood terms of "don''t mess with the US..... Don't look for reason /logic in their analysis of all this. In fact they don't even think it through in a rational way. All they know is REACT.KILL, AVENGE, REVENGE and shoot from both the hip and mouth. What these same bullies don''t realize is the direction this could go , as bully power unleashed on this planet has grave consequences. And they are showing up now. Bullies are NOT civilized. even though on occasion they pretend to be. On a personal level........would not travel to the US ever again.........unless something drastic changes in the entire environment. I feel PITY for them. They have no idea of what they have done......and how this will shape things in the future. It is sad that they now must live in the sphere of the most resented nation on this planet. But they are the author of their own situation. .........even tho they are becoming experts at the blame game and never taking responsibility for their own actions.....and consequences. They collectively have bought into the BIG US LIE. ........smoke and mirrors and lots of muscle. Short on brains and humanitarianism. Financial contributions don't qualify as true humanitarianism.
Canada faces tough choices on a daily basis ........given the proximity of their neighbor. It can say "yes" if it is productive for CANADA.........and NO to the US if if not.
Seems that pity is more appropriate for the US now.....then 'hating " them. There is no percentage in "hate" and it is vile to one's own soul.
Re: RE: The Power of Hatred
again, with the assumptions about siding with one element or another . For the record.......in this invasion: I am with the Iraqi population. If that makes me against the US .......so be it. I want them to come out of this , a stable , productive nation that retains its own culture and history. (kinda too bad that the US bombs destroyed so many museums and other cultural artifacts. Some things cannot be replaced.)
Now, you want to make something out of that.......go ahead. This is NOT about the US vs the insurgents. That is what makes this invasion so unusual. Iraq was no threat to the US.......and did not ask for the US assistance to get rid of their leader. Regime change in another nation is illegal. It would be just as illegal if a nation with the where with all , decided that the US needed a regime change. ( and they would sure have a justification.......as the USG IS a threat to the world at large. ) "terrorist" groups are minor players in all this.

"death to bush, death to imperialism" is the protestors message in Denmark. (during his brief visit there)
.......the power of hatred takes on a life of its own when the subject /object perpetuates it with actions so dispicable.
did anyone see his "speech" in Denmark??? Sheesh, the guy is not making any sense at all . He was asked an excellent question by a reporter from Denmark......and literally went into some rant /fantasy that did not even address the question. His responses have become "rote"......and repetative. The press in the room.......had that expression of pity.......as they knew any questions would not get an intelligent answer.

First, Iraq invaded Kuwait...had they not done that none of this would be happening....so, yes Iraq did F*ck with America...all they had to do was leave Kuwait, but they didn't....Saddam is stupid.
Ocean...there is a time for reason and analysis; there is a time for violence. Right now analysis isn't going to serve to defeat those who hate America and can't be trusted. Sometimes only muscle will serve....Pity should be reserved for those who can't see the world for what it is.
pity is reserved for those that choose violence over other more diplomatic/humane methods for resolving issues. Turn around is fair play.........and it is the US(G) that cannot be trusted and is despised by so many now. Violence begets violence and hatred. fostering hatred is not the civilized methodology. and no one is naive as to the world today. "muscle" is LAST RESORT route ......not the first option.......unless you are a bully or a warmonger. A bit of civility goes a long way and is less destructive. but civility , diplomacy takes much longer , is an evolving process.........and for the impatient bullies........violence is simply expedient.
I really don’t believe that any Muslim today can remember the crusades, so that’s hardly a reason for hatred. Besides which, no matter how they were done, the crusades were a counterattack to Muslim invasion. Bin Laden did mention the loss of Andalusia (Spain) as a reason for hatred, so I guess if someone fights back successfully it’s considered a crime against Islam for all time.
Unfortunately, the one lesson that has been learned is that the US can be resisted and removed with enough determination and the sacrifice of their own unwilling citizens. The US will in time lose, and the Jihad will spread. SH was no friend of the US but he kept the radicals suppressed. They have now been loosed upon the world. It’s only a matter of time.
I hope I’m wrong.
