Originally posted by Omega_Blue Recently I've become more and more interested in politics, world issues and the like. However, for the last couple of years I haven't really been keeping up with what's going on (hey I'm young, we're not supposed to care about that stuff yet). I was watching FOX News and CNN- have you guys noticed that FOX seems really... pro-bush? pro-war? and CNN to me seems... at least a little more centered on giving both sides.. Anyways I was hoping you guys could give me a little insight on the whole iraq deal. Tell me why you like/dislike bush. What is he doing in Iraq, and why is he doing it. why do you like kerry instead? What does he plan on doing with the whole war on terrorism? what do you think of our occupation of iraq? what do you think of North Korea's nuclear "threats?" Please include if you consider yourself liberal or conservative, democrat or republican (or whatever). thanks

A good idea would probably be to start browsing thread topics and I'm sure you'll find the answers to all of your questions and then some.

I tend to lean conservative on most issues.

That's about as wide as the Grand Canyon. Might want to narrow the topic a little. We can work with you a little if the flamers don't try to suck the life out of you first.

...yeah... thanks for the advice buddy. what I'm really looking for is people from both liberal and conservative sides to sum up their opinions on the war on terror. thanks again

(didn't mean to come off as an ass)

Would help immensley if you stated your own opinion first. That's how it normally works. Folks against you flame, and folks for you back you up. You need to take a position. Otherwise, it's a bunch of so what.

...good point. I guess I'm kind of a fence-sitter, that's why I want everyone's opinions. I guess I can only state what I've heard from talking with others.
So I hear that Bush is some war monger that is occupying Iraq for no reason.. I hear that Saudi Arabia (our main oil source?) is giving haven to terrorists, and they're supposed to be allies? I also heard Bush wants to continue relations with the Saudi's because he and the oil companies are profiting from them? so really bush is just corrupt?

why is it that so many countries hate us?

please feel free to correct any of the hearsay I just recited.

Perhaps you should watch the movie Fahrenheit 911,that might help you understand teh whole situation better.

I would answer all those with "yes", but that is just my opinion.
A good place to start if you want to know other people's opinions on this would be this one

and the links/quotations within.

The radical muslims hate you because you interfere with their plans to live in theocracies. The everyday Arab hates you because he's told to hate you by his religious superiors and because you support Israel.
Europeans love you, but hate your current government, for its mingling in other countries affairs, and its determination not to follow any international treaties which has a negative aspect (as well as a positive aspect) for the US.
I, as a person, cannot stand Bush, because he feels like a stupid puppet.

Hope that was OK?
