Okay first of all, the Yemeni man isn't my buddy. Shame on you for taking the Limbaugh route and suggesting that everybody who questions a rather hawkish military policy is sympathetic to a theocratic terrorist movement.
Second of all, hypocrisy? You really do have reading comprehension troubles don't you?
"So it was legal to kill Osama bin Laden because he was involved in the planning of the attacks but it's not okay to kill your Yemen buddy when he was involved in planning attacks
Such massive hypocrisy."
Okay now, I'm only going to say this one more time, and I'm going to TYPE IT OUT IN BIG BLACK CAPITOL LETTERS SO THAT MAYBE YOU'LL UNDERSTAND IT. I doubt it though.
I SAID BIN LADEN SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN KILLED THE WAY HE WAS. Comprendo? Do you understand English? I never said it was okay to kill one and not the other. YOU said that I said that. I think bin laden should have been tried in an open court, and let's see what the government's evidence against him is.
Tell me something, why are you so willing to believe a government that lied us into the Iraq War, the Vietnam War, and God knows how many other clusterfuck messes, when they tell you it was bin laden that attacked the WTC? Do you remember how the government once said that some North Vietnamese patrol boats attacked us and got us into Vietnam? Turns out that was a big bullshit lie too.
But somehow, anybody that questions the official account of a government that lies so repeatedly and so often is considered crazy.
Yeah, keep giving up your civil rights to the governement, surfdog. Go ahead, let them take out people at random and with no trial because THEY SAY they are bad. Let them lock them up forever with no trial because THEY SAY they are terrorists. The government wouldn't lie to you, would it?
