I cant believe im reading this, coming from a smart Canadian.
The war is a war on TERROR. Terror = noun. Every time the US has tried to fight a war on a noun (drugs, poverty) they have FAILED. Just as they will with this, you cannot fight a war on a noun, simple as that.
When you see hundreds and hundreds of dead Iraqis...noone says anythiing, cause they are in the less civilized part of the world. And dont tell its only a few dying cause every day there are attacks we dont hear about.
I am however, sorry that innocents had to die in England.
BTW, political threads on a forum? Big no-no. There are always ppl like Bronze who are misinformed and will turn the discussion into a flame. |
Wow, very well said...sounds like something Epi would say with his obsession with grammar LOL 
Political threads, prostitution threads, mother****** threads, anything goes, man, but Bronze isn't half the flamestarter Shadowolf is...(hint, hint)
Anyway, I have to re-emphasize how much I agree with your point!!! War on a noun when you say it like that doesn't even make SENSE!!!! LOL!!!
Malek, it was Bush, not his predecessors, that decided that the root to the terrorism that hit NYC was planted in Afghanistan. Occupying other countries and nation-building isn't the answer unless you kill off every single person that would hold a grudge.
What ticks me off so much more is the preferential treatment that Saudis were given right after 9/11 (yes I believe every word that Michael Moore tells me) that shows how BUSH prefers one Arab country over the other, ESPECIALLY when (I can't prove this, but the secretive way in which the Saudi government works--I witnessed this--makes me paranoid) probably the planning and money comes from Saudi Arabia. Case in point: Osama Bin Laden.
I very much hold Bush's cavalier attitude to such a sensitive and complex issue partially responsible for this.
What happened to the days of fostering TRUE PEACE (Clinton with Rabin and Arafat?)
