Well the Iraqi immigration wasn`t what I was asking about, but yes, we do have immigrants from all over the world here.
Life wasn`t great for them under Saddam is a bit more than the understatement of the year. He was massively murdering his own people. Hell, he killed a lot of his own family. Yes, I would say their life is a lot. lot. even immesnely better now with a bright prospect for the future. I didn`t even mention the Kurds now did I?
OK, so we have found out that your leveling the field and helping less fortunate countries like you suggested earlier is at best selective. In other words you want them helped only when you think it might directly benefit you. That`s plain enough. You also wish for someone other than yourself or your country to do the "helping" when it comes down to it.
T typical.
We didn't have Iraqi terrorists threatening us before that invasion. Saddam's regime had nothing to do with 911 or Al Quaeda.
By "we" I`m assuming you mean your country. They are way more of a threat than you grasp. Saddam`s regime had a lot to do with 911 and Al Quaida. Terorist training, financial backing, weapons, intelligence shared, etc. Al Quaida now has openly pledged it`s support to continue it`s fight against us and to continue to fight for the return of a rule such as Saddam had.
Sticking your head in the sand and pretending it doesn`t exist only makes them stronger, gives them time to prepare more attacks and to build finances, resources, etc.
Personaly I`m proud to see it being taken care of at the root of the problem, instead of waiting to see more civilian citizens slaughtered on our own soil and waiting for the attacks to get worse and more terrible. Do you think by ignoring such things they will just go away. That is childish and quite frankly totaly chicken chit.
Yes by all means go get the perpetrators of terrorist attacks on your country. Just as we did and do in Northern Ireland and as you may have noticed I have made no comment on the attacks on Afghanistan. I have no issue with trying to decapitate the Al Quaeda organistaion and remove their base of operations in Afghanistan. But the war in Iraq achieved none of that.
The war in Iraq is serving several purposes. All good.
This is where you start back peadling and contradicting your own statements to suit what you think is best for you at any particular time. Old saying..you can`t have your cake and eat it too. You are trying to eat your cake and want someone else to keep you supplied.
Yea, I noticed you have made no comments of Afghanistan. That`s why I did.
Once again you can`t pick and choose what suits only you. I`d go so far to say that so far you have tryed to blame everything that you consider a discomfort to you on someone else. namely the U.S. I`d also go so far to say that you really don`t give a damn about your own country. You only think of yourself, not what`s right for your country. Not what`s the right thing to do, but just YOU. As long as you can try to blame someone else for anything that doesn`t suit you, you are all set. I`d say you would make a piss poor countryman in any country.
Our stupid Govt and yours got us into a situation which has only made the danger for us all worse. We have given the nutters another reason to attack us. Bad bad foreign policy.
Our government didn`t get you into any damn thing. If you feel your government is wrong , work on it from that end. Quit blaming the U.S. because you are chicken chit. You`d be chicken watermelon with or without us. With or without your own government.
Only made matters worse huh? So you think by ignoring them, they would just stop because you want the bad men to go away? BS.
They didn`t need another reason to attack us. They had all the fuel they needed after 911. Attacks by now would have probably made 911 look like a walk in the park if something hadn`t been done. We are hitting them on their own turf. We are making things very, very uncomfortable for them. It`s hard to organize when you are constantly being hunted and getting the watermelon kicked out of you. The decision has been made that enough is enough and I`m damn proud of it.
You sir are a farce. A fake. You don`t have the backbone of a squid. You stand for nothing.
Were not interested in your BS socialists, quasi-commie BS either. I `m willing to bet the reason you have to come here to spew that antiU.S. crap is that you`d get the crap kicked out of ya if you tryed it in your country. I know you would here.
Quit blaming others because the world does not revolve around you.
Take your comments concerning the U.S. to your brothers at the next propaganda reading.
You don`t give a rat`s *** about other people or other countries. You only care for yourself and I don`t think you are very comfortable in your own company.
