Chumpsky => “Yet, you are completely unwilling to condemn the state that maintains these murderous sanctions.”
**Daoloth ** => Really? Well, you never asked, nor was an opportunity provided.
Yes! Apparently, this is the best you can do:
**I do not support the UN sanctions against Iraq as they are. **
A blistering condemnation if ever there was one. :rolleyes:
Perhaps if there were actual people dying over there, you might be moved to condemn the acts of your state which are, at the very least, contributing to massive misery. Since they are only Iraqis, no need to worry.
So let me get this straight. The KLA is not allowed to fight for their independence and their own homeland, but the Palestinians are? You hypocrite.
There is only one Serb in Kosovo for every nine Albanians. Shouldn’t the overwhelming Albanian majority have the right to determine where they want to live? Especially since that liar Tito promised the Albanian Kosovars independence to get their help in forming the Yugoslav Partisans and then reneged on that promise? And of course, there was the fact that the province was conquered by Serbs who then massacred the Albanians, who then rose up and drove the Serbs out of Kosovo in an act of anti-imperialism. Of course, the Serbs regrouped and brought the Yugoslavian army in to reconquer a populace that never wanted to be a part of the federation in the first place. The very definition of imperialism.
And when the Albanian Kosovars fight back against the occupation of their country by a minority ethnic group that seeks to oppress them, you get on their back? Why? Oh that’s right, because you have no grasp of history and defend the imperialism of people that “don’t give free reign to capital and oppose the Americans, blah blah blah.” I’m sure you have no problem with Soviet imperialism or Chinese imperialism, because they oppose the evil capitalists. Just as you refuse to acknowledge the war crimes of Milosevic because he’s on your side.
There’s some passage in the Bible that deals with people like you, Chumpsky, it has to do with planks or specks in someone’s eye. I can’t remember exactly, though.
I’m sorry that my condemnation did not read something like this:
“We must stop the murderous tyranny of the genocidal democidal racist imperialist fascist autocratic regime of the USA! We must abolish all sanctions immediately, for they are murdering so sooo many hundreds of thousands! Death to the US! Death to capitalism!”
