The American goverment is the worst in the world!

What pissed you off? =/

You know, it's probably the whole thread that pissed me off more than what you said just there. I instantly took it as an insult from you because you don't agree with me. For jumping the gun on that, I'm sorry.

I think an invasion wasnt the best way to resolve this.
Violence and torture was beaten by violence and torture.

I don't see any other alternative. No one likes violence and torture ( the crazy ones aside ) but what else could have been done? People say all the time how they think Bush should have handled it differently . . please, share with us what you would have done put in Bush's situation?

Edit - ( And to back up Undead, being a solider or not is irrelevant since it's not like they brainwash those in the armed forces. My father is in the Air Force and I would have gone in if I could have physically handled it. )

I didn't say you weren't allowed to have a political opinion. I asked where yours came from.

I have built it myself after seeing the events&situation of the world.

That has nothing to do with my political views. It's irrelavent....and yet you complain becuase the US retaliated to an attack. What would you have us do instead?What does it explain?

I just wanted an explanation to this post:

Let me tell you, I wake up in the morning full of excitement at the chance a new day brings to kill innocent civillians!

And I got it.

You can't attack when all your effeorts are used for defense. Defense in the sense that they attacked and we retaliated.Yes.

Saddam didnt attack.

I dont agree with most people here.If everyone would agree with everyone then there would be no discussions happening and the world would be a very boring place.

So when he invaded Kuwait it was nothing? When he killed thousands of his own people and tortured many more it was nothing? He wouldn't let UN inspectors into his bases so he must have been hiding something right? No he was a nice man who was just missunderstood. Bull.

Wasnt the first Iraq war supposed to deal with it?

When he killed thousands of his own people and tortured many more it was nothing?

Now they are being killed and tortured by the US.

He wouldn't let UN inspectors into his bases so he must have been hiding something right?

Nothing has ever been found.

I know that.

However, I'm still very curious to know what you would have done put in Bush's sitaution. You've very clearly stated how you think he did it wrong so tell us the right way to do it.

I wouldnt have started war and would have tried to negotiate at least a little more.I dont think proper effort was put in negotiating before the war.

[theundeadhero]

Yes, it was, but HE broke the treaties, not us.

Now they are being killed...by the US.

That's what happens in war. One side kills the other side. We're winning.

How much more effort was needed? Who decides what's enough and what's not?

I think it doesnt take a news channel to realise how 100 000 is bigger than 2000, only simple math.

In WWII we killed a lot more people than all the dead from Pearl Harbor too. What a wicked, evil country we have always been. [/sarcasm]

OOC:	I'm taking a break from this thread until tomorrow because it's become too heated for me and my tendancies tend to lean towards the bannable side.

Are you?I aint convinced.Noone is.You arent exactly controlling the situation atleast in Iraq.

Common sense does.It was basically:HEY SADAM OMGUHAVILLGLWEAPSZOFMASZDISTRCTNPLZLETUSINURSCRTBASESNAUOMGLOLZ!!111one and when Saddam said no they immadietly went to war.

Yes you have always been a wicked, evil country if you put it that way

Good call.

[nik0tine]

What other reasons could there be?Save Iraq?Dont make me laugh. Weapons of Mass Destruction?None there.
If it has no reason then the American government really is stupid.

I already explained the exact reasons as to why we really went to war, and you ignored it.

Where do your political views come from? Your 16. Do they come from your parents? Do you watch CNN, FOX news, or other such programs? Do you base it on an uninformed whim of your opinion?

Please don't discriminate because of age. A 16 year old can have valid political views. Im 16 and I believe my views are valid, and I have met many other kids my age who understand what they are talking about. Just because this 16 year old doesn't know what he is talking about doesn't mean that applies to us all.

I think it doesnt take a news channel to realise how 100 000 is bigger than 2000, only simple math.
Also what you are doing here is age discrimination.Do I have to have to be 20+ years old to express my political opinion without giving explanation where I got it from?

You should ALWAYS have to explain where you got your opinions from, regardless of whether you are 16, or 100 years old.

Nope. Not at all. They were all having a big ole fun time there. Oh that's right, we should have given them money and then ignored how the leaders whored the money to themselves and continued to torture their people.

Did you know that the United States has never placed a person in power that was NOT a dictator? The argument that we should be there to help the Iraqi people is invalid because we are just going to install another ruthless tyrant in Saddams place. This time though, the leader is going to be our lapdog. Did you know that the guy we appointed as the temporary president of Iraq blew up a bus load of children when he was working for the CIA?

[Shadow Nexus]

Eh, well, I'm not a mod or anything, but...could people get a little more relaxed over this? If this was some kind of dinner or something, you would already be throwing food at each other.

Oh, and Doors, the way you are expressing things is on the border of being considered flaming.

[escobert]

And that's why there's elections we arn't placing anyone in power the people are.

[nik0tine]

we arn't placing anyone in power the people are.

Yes, but we only have the choice between one rich man and another rich man. That is unfortunate.

[escobert]

I agree that only the rich will eb on ower but the people do have a choice. And I'm sure not all rich people in the middle east are evil anf want to kill everyone.

[theundeadhero]

Sorry if I mislead you nikotine. My question wasn't based on being 16, but the fact that his opinions don't seem to be informed. It was more a question of where they came from.

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

You seem to have missed my point entirely. You've given many reasons why you dislike the government, yet you have failed UTTERLY in proving the statement you made for this thread, i.e. that the American government is the best in the world. As amusing as your ranting about how Bush is teh evil, the best you've come to even stating the very topic this thread is supposedly supposed to be about is some vague comments about things you don't like.
