Oh yeah...tough guy huh?
DMB...
Don't you think the USA should be held accountable for her actions?
Shouldn't she take responsibility for her foreign policies? I mean, what I
see missing from the whole "making progress" debate is any discussion of
that. Its not even a matter of charity or generosity. Its a matter of doing
injury to other nations and other cultures. This is what breeds resentment
and terror.
RISQUE:
Yes. She should. This has been a part of this 7 month thread. The topic you
mention basically set it off in September.
DMB:
Did you know that the USA?...
Trained and funded Osama bin Ladin. Has sold weapons and given money to
Saddam Hussein. Sold Indonesia the weapons it used to perpetrate a genocide
in East Timor. Helped to overthrow a democratically elected government in
Argentina and installed a military dictatorship. Runs "the school of the
Americas", which trains terrorists. That Angola's Savimbe, who killed half a
million of his own people was called "the Abe Lincoln of Africa" by Reagan
and "one of the true heros of our time" by Jean Kirpatrick. That Henry
Kissenger is being sued for war crimes. That a third of the planet's
population current suffers from US economic sanctions. And has supported a
vast number of repressive regiems throughout the world. I could go on for
days, but you get the idea. Terrorism is mostly caused by blowback. To
simply attribute the world's problems to "their" dysfunctionality strikes me
as a profound abdication of responsibility.
RISQUE:
Yea, and I once heard your hero used to sodomize little boys. So there.
But seriously, some of these have an explanation. Some are low points in an
obviously not unblemished history (from which we must learn). Some are gross
distortions that reflect more of your hate of America's ideals than of
America itself.
You are again taking things out of context or making up an argument that
nobody has espoused and then attacking it. Like your recent Bill O'Reilly
rant.
If you want a piece of me David, please take me on directly -- and no name
calling or making fun of MY hero's (Pirsig, Madison, Bart and OJ Simpson,
etc)
I'll be back!
