What can I tell you but that all things are interconnected. Just b/c things are interconnected doesn’t mean the US intended their dollars to comeback at them in the form of 9.11.
I never said it was right to fund Afghanistan not did I say it was right to invade Iraq. My points in previous threads was that now we are there and had dissolved the leadership it would be wrong to leave till the job is done. Unfortunately that means more fighting and more death but I was for the surge and by all accounts violence and death are down as a result.
So tell me thnkfrst, since you’ve got all the facts and it’s clear you should be running for president, what’s the solution to all this “mongering” you present to us, the dumb masses? Certainly getting all stressed out and yelling about it does nothing but contribute to the shedding of years off your life. So how are you going to live?
THNKFRSTPAL: This response beggars belief. You have argued yourself into a corner where reason and logic have flown out of the window. There is now nothing that you can say that will have any resemblance to reality or sanity. By turn, there is nothing i can say that will appear to you to have any reason or sanity. You have destroyed the channels of communication between yourself and the rest of the world.
What is the point of this? What can you achieve by doing this?
You may think you seek truth, that you have the answers - that may all be true, but you have lost all ability to express yourself clearly and logically - you are one step away from a random word generator.
If you want to debate this, then do so. If all you’re interested in is ignoring other peoples comments, distorting the truth and repeatedly issuing profane insults you will only do your side of the argument damage, nothing more.
Mr. Thnkfrst: I think we need to keep perspective on things. We could’ve been born at any point in history and we would’ve found war, death, struggle, injustice, and mongering of all kinds. Nothing is different, nothing has changed. To think civilization has come a long way since those medieval times is wrong. Thats because the root of war, deceit etc is nothing else but the human mind. Our afflictive emotions: anger, jealousy, greed, pride, ignorance. Those are the roots of war. To let such emotions proliferate in our own mind is to contribute to the worlds problems, not help. Again all things are interconnected… so our state of mind is involved in this. Thats why anger is such a problem. And thats why all your screaming and yelling is no different than the mongering you claim to hate. You become what you hate. I think I’ll call you Anakin from now on… or should I say Darth Thnkfrst. Have the prequels taught us nothing!
Apathy baby, apathy, gotta love it. It’s spreading all over the world soon none of you will give a shit about truth, justice, or the American way…watch and see
empathy is the way, the truth, the light. Self serving delusions that the majority of “other” people high up in government look out for you, your children, or your best interests or the best interests of your country is simply laughable at best, considering the state of the nation, the world, and the BS they (both right and left) are trying to shove down our throats. i.e
evil Islamo Fascists want to destroy freedom loving do no harm western countries and turn us into Islamic slaves so we must bomb “other” middle eastern countries so Al Quaeda doesn’t follow us home is like a fricken comic book.
Global warming is going to melt all the ice caps and put california and NYC underwater in 25-50yrs is something from Aquaman.
Get a clue and wake up…
or just…Oh I don’t know sit around and only care about YOU and YOURS, and hopefully incrementally you can make the world a better place by being a better person, how very buddhist of you. What ever happened to the Buddhist monks in China anyway?, oh, yeah, they were slaughtered and tortured. That worked well.
Note: no offense to Buddhists, I think you get what I’m trying to say.
Dumbphish: “things are just intertwined like they always have been bro” “calm down man”
Hey DUMPHISH: PEOPLE ARE BEING BOMBED BY OUR COUNTRY IN A FAKE WAR ON TERROR IN A COUNTRY THAT DID NOT ATTACK US EVEN IF YOU BELIEVE THE OFFICIAL FAIRY TALE. THE INVASION OF AFGHANISTAN AND THE TROOPS WERE IN PLACE BEFORE 9/11. jeez, what does it take around here.
I’m not gonna calm down when we’re talkin about people being bombed by the USA for reasons that don’t add up.
I’m not gonna calm down when Al Gore is tellin me to conserve while him and his rich buddies do anything BUT CONSERVE. PERIOD.
ive actually started a new hobby as of late…it involves dumping gasoline on to tires and letting them burn. the neighbors were mad about it at first but they seemed to have gotten over it at this point.
Well maybe, if they’re 100% beef franks. And not funded by the US those swarmy bastards!! Because that would be the same as backing Al Qaeda… from now on I’m only buying from le FRANCE’!
