(34,179 posts)Might I remind you that it was nineteen people, citizens of other countries besides Afghanistan, led by a Saudi national, who ran those planes into those buildings on 911. Yet we go over and kill the people of Afghanistan and Pakistan for what those others did? Who are the savages?
Fighting for peace is like fucking for virginity, it is oxymoronic and simply doesn't work. Those "evil bastards" that you so jingoisticly refer to are actually just people trying to defend their country. I mean really now, if the largest military country in the world landed here and started dealing out death indiscriminately, wouldn't you take up a gun, fight back?
Your words reveal that the only true savages here are you, you and the millions of others like you, ignorant and bloodthirsty, snugged comfortably away from any threat, but cheering on the bloodshed, like fat, ancient Romans in the coliseum.
Question, did we blow the people of Kansas or Idaho to hell and gone after Timothy McVeigh blew up the Murrah Federal Building? After all, there were, and are still, a small number of religious fanatics in those states who could still be a threat to us.
Oh, no, we didn't do that. So why are we continuing that same stupid policy in Afghanistan?
