By disagreeing with Bush's war plan, you support terrorism.

[yme]

Hell, if driving an SUV and running your lawnmower in the afternoon is supporting terrorism. Disagreeing with Bush is too.

[Warning: wild imagination influenced by drugs]

First off, fuck you. Do we really need evidence? How about supporting ourselves. I say go over there and blow the fuck out of these mother fuckers. And when were done, put out the fires in the oil field and take it for our own consumption. I wouldn't complain about .20 cents a gallon for fuel.

"but what about all the innocent people?" :o

Oh please, go over there and die with em' for all I care. Do you really care about someone on the news when they get shot up or their house burns down? You just say, "that's too bad", and you keep goin', don't ya? Well, that's all we have to do. Except all these fucks are the bad guys, ok? How would you like it if we let Hussain get away with this, and 15 years from now, his sons are running the show. Tell me how if feels when your daughter is in the new WTC, and she dies in it because 15 years ago, we just said, (In a whiny yuppie voice), "there's just not enough evidence". Eat a gun.

How hard could it be? "Warning, if you are still in Iraq a month from now, you will die".

[/Warning: wild imagination influenced by drugs]


Mind you, I'm really not a violent person. I just cannot imagine some of you people really thinking that we should let them off the hook. Whether he's linked to Al-Qeida or not, he's a war criminal, he's a saddist, he hates us. We are the almighty. We are America, we can do whatever we want, whenever we want. STOP the pussification of America.

[World Eater]

Yep, drugs aren't bad.

You're gonna be the first one to storm Baghdad, right?

It's safe to say you have the brain power of a toadstool.

[Feynn]

I do get upset when innocent people die, I can't see how the ordinary people in Iraq will mourn any differently than I would if their parents, sons, or daughters were killed.

I bet Sadam expresses many sentiments almost identical to:

"We are America, we can do whatever we want, whenever we want."

... except he replaces the word America with Iraq.

It's not the kind of sentiments that will make anyone a lot of friends.

If no-one openly disagreed with or questioned Bush's line of thought or decision making I would be seriously fucking concerned as that's also the situation in Iraq.

You don't see Iraqis marching in the streets and protesting very often do you?

I'd suggest laying off the drugs for a while.

Finally... Saddam Hussein has got to go but at what cost?

[World Eater]

Yme please clear up your argument, maybe we can actually answer you.

[yme]

Giraffe, you make me laugh.
Your lucky this is only 1's and 0's,

Do you really think we should sit back and let Saddam hate us?
He himself hurts innocent people. To me Desert Storm never ended, it was just put on pause, while we thought about what to do with his punk ass. Did you disagree with Desert Storm? I mean come on we never finished our mission.
[/Seriously though]

[Robb]

Tell me how if feels when your daughter is in the new WTC, and she dies in it because 15 years ago, we just said, (In a whiny yuppie voice), "there's just not enough evidence".
Then we'll be justifiably angry that Bush stopped hunting a wounded, yet still dangerous Al Qaida in favor of stalking a stuffed and mounted sitting duck (in a barrel) like Saddam.

[yme]

Robb: The two are related though.

[Legomancer]

Next on "Misinformed Theater," a lamp talks about Bush's tax plan!

[Giraffe]

I'll try to make this easy for you:

1. There is no evidence that Al Qaeda has received support from Saddam. Did you listen to Powell's speech to the U.N. this morning? (I'm pretty certain you didn't, as it involved words with more than one syllable and wasn't broadcast during "Jackass".) The best evidence they can provide is nebulous at best -- an al Qaeda member may have been in Bahgdad for a few months. That doesn't prove a government connection -- the east coast sniper was in D.C. for a while, too.

2. Saddam strongly opposes and suppresses militant Islam, as it would weaken his power.

3. Many of the terrorists were Saudis, and there are clear links between Saddam and Saudi Arabia. Not that I think we should invade Saudi Arabia, but if we're going to invade someone because of 9/11, they make more sense than Iraq.

4. Terrorism comes from having groups of people who hate us enough to die to hurt us. You can't defend against that with tanks. Invading Iraq without convincing evidence of a direct, immediate threat makes us look aggressive and dangerous to Muslims, a country who will inflict enormous suffering on Iraqi civilians in order to further our own agenda. I for one don't want our government killing innocent Iraqis to make ourselves feel better about being attacked by someone else, when the result will likely be increased terrorism and hatred of Americans around the world.

Of course, that doesn't fit into your ignorant "yee haw -- let's kick ass!" world view. But don't be so idiotic to suppose that people who oppose this war do so because they love America less than you do. Moron.

[Tars Tarkas]

by telling people they support terrorism, you support terrorism!!

[UncleBeer]

Don't take things so seriously.
And don't post even veiled threats against other members. This is not a suggestion.

[Scruff]

There's more chance of Dick Cheney and Saddam Hussein working together than Saddam and Osama bin Laden.

Before Exercise Desert Storm (Gulf War I), Osama bin Laden who, at that time was a noble freedom fighter opposing the Russian menace in Afghanistan, made an offer to the Saudis to remove Hussein from power, er, permanently.

The Saudis declined his kind offer, especially as the Americans and British were feeding weapons (including "Weapons of Mass Destruction") to Hussein, who was keeping the Iranian menace in check, along with a Kurd or two. The Saudi government felt (probably) that the implications of having a secular leader assassinated by a popular Muslim fundamentalist might not play well with the Christian fundamentalist government of the US. Key players at the time include names you might recognize, such as Bush (the elder), Cheney and Rumsfeld.

Strange old world, isn't it?

Yeah, this post did take it to the extreme, but why am I simple for it? It's all in good fun, really it is.


Well, you know what they say about opinions.

Yeah, I thought that was going to come across wrong. I really wasn't trying to swagger -- I don't get into fights, least of all with some random idiot from a message board. But his implication that I was lucky I was safe behind the computer screen made me smile. He couldn't have known, but I happen to be pretty big (6'8", 220 lbs).

In retrospect, I should have just ignored it, and stuck with mocking his posts.

IMHO, the humor in the situation was that Giraffe could have been a paralyzed comatose heroin-addict waif on life support, and
yme has the same chance of kicking his ass.

Well, for the purposes of this particular post, I happen to be 7'2", 385 lbs of chiseled granite, have assorted martial arts blacks belts, an arsenal to make James Bond jealous and can dance a mean Merengue.

Nope, they don't come much bigger than moi... on the Internet ;)

[robertliguori]

(Wasn't there a thread for this sort of thing already?)

Well, muscle tissue and sharp or dense metal is all very well and good, but that is not true strength. True strength is when you stare into the empty sockets of Death, the blank grey orbs of Fate, and the courscating rainbow'd irises of Madness, and they all blink first. And then you make Death and Madness your personal bitches, and put Fate on your wait staff. And then you bitch-slap God when his pansy-ass complains to you about wanting his anthropomorphic personifications back, if you please, sir? That's strength.

That's a pretty good foreign policy philosophy. "I think we should kill bad guys without people in America getting shot up and all." Thankfully, all of America's enemies wear black hats and have thin moustaches they twirl with their fingers.
