and/or just can't separate critisism from hate.


umm well when that's about all you hear from someone,  it's a pretty reasonable conclusion.. or, maybe when you hear/see stuff like this:

If he would have been included in the list of the "people who can't stand americans" I think he would have posted it explicitly.

With a post like :

"and you wonder why I and some people can't stand americans".

It's you who put the "American hater" label on him,not him.

Yes well do you expect me to come to someone else's conclusion?

Honestly, for all the snide remarks and criticism you levy, do you truly think an american on this board would come to the conclusion you like America?

As an American, I apologize for the U.S having Bill Clinton in power.


It wasn't, and isn't, just Clinton.

Go to this page:

http://www.house.gov/walsh/pr_011698.htm

It's Congressman James Walsh, New York,  recieving the first annual "Bobby Sands Award".

Bobby Sands was a convicted terrorist, who was arrested after a shootout with the police.

Can you imagine the reactions on this board if a member of, for example, the Norwegian parliament said he was "honoured" to accept an award named after an Arab terrorist?

The US congress and senate gave great support to the IRA down the years. In 19790 they enforced a ban on the sale of US weapons to the police in Northern Ireland.

Joe Doherty was an IRA terrorist, convicted of murdering a soldier. HE escaped to the US and claimed political asylum. 132 members of congress signed a motion in support of him being granted asylum.

Crap like that needs to stop...period. I really dont want any terrorists whether they are Chechan or Irish or Islamic etc in MY country.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

I was, and continue to be confused why we don't more aggressively condemn the IRA for the terrorists that they are.

I think  the U.S. has erred here.
