Dont be ignorant rikard......bombs are much easier. My dad is a prison guard and most of the suicides are from people locked up in solitary confinement with no entertainment. You shouldnt make it comfortable for them but at least enough to justify them wanting to live another day.

To SEE that there's a world outside of the US That all men are equal No matter what country they live in No matter what religeon they have I WANT YOU MAGIK to Learn that the USA is not the Greater good and that the US makes a much mistakes as any other country does[/QUOTE]heh Where to begin, first off we DO realize that there is a world out side the US, just because they can't get their shit together and come to a workable solution doesnt make us responsible for them. We help when and where it suits us, be happy with what we CHOOSE to give, no one else has any right to tell us how to give what we have. ME MAGIK knows that compared to the other choices the USA IS the greater good. I don't come by that opinion lightly or uninformed. You should know that the American public,(Im referencing a poll from the midwest not from the liberal college campi) is really sick of trying to help here and there and getting jack shit in response. When and IF the USA decides to do things is up to us, and trying to bitch us into doing it sooner just gets us pissed off. And just in case you think I blindly follow President Bush...Im totaly against his pressuring Israel to withdraw their troops. You know, The USA is not the BE all and END all but it is a step in the right direction. The rights and laws we set in this country have led to better living conditions for people all around the world, including england and europe.....nothing is perfect tho so we keep fine tuning, hopefully it works for the better and not worse. Asia in particular has a sever disconnect with the west where human life and it's value is concerned...we didn't create that outlook on life and yet the USA is blamed for it....ahhh never mind [ 04-16-2002, 12:41 PM: Message edited by: MagiK ] |

About Isreal Isreal is as much to blaim as the palastins maybe more The only way you can find a solution is to stop attacking one another and cease fire About the US being the greater good NO western country has as much people who are really poor as the US Most European countries don;t let people down who can;t find a job or who are injured But i guess that's hard to understand for a rightwinger [ 04-16-2002, 12:54 PM: Message edited by: Rikard_OHF ]

I think you wouldn't. How would you like to have your clitorus sliced off with a knife for the religious zeal of some ancient monk?? Im sure you w0ould find that quite fun...yes I think that many asian and middle eastern cultures are horribly, unspeakably barbaric and I do detest them...if that makes me a racist or bigot...so be it. As for the Israeli issue, the tactic you suggest has been tried and failed so many times its hard to cuont them all, there is another solution, just kill all the palistinians....that would end the conflict, but no one really likes that idea so it isn't going to happen. Israel has had plenty of provocation to go in and occupy all of the west bank, but thats just an opinion and it is irrelevant, since the stated goal of the PLO and the surrounding arab nations is the elimination of the jews, I do believe the Israelis have the right to do whatever they deem nesecary to survive as a race and a nation.

I should like ot mention at this point, that I am also dating a Portugese lady who came to this country with her husbad 20 years ago with only enough money to eat and the clothes on her back. Now she and her family own two construction companies and are well into the high 6 figure incomes. They were nto given anything other than what is available to every american. Just because not all people can succeed does not mean it is not the best system... There should be no rewards for failure, and no excuse for not working for what government conrtibutions you receive. I have said before, if you cannot survive in the USA you can't survive anywhere, sad to say, the "All men are created equal" is not a litteral statement, it just means everyone should have the same chance and in this country you do, if you aren't smart or strong enough or earnest enough to succeed, well at least you had your chance. One last little bit, I have visited several european countries granted only for very short terms (only hours) and in limited locations, but I have seen worse filth and poverty there than in the worst slums in harlem or South East DC. Europe is no shining beacon of love and acceptance or humanitarianism towards the idigent and less fortunate. [ 04-16-2002, 02:22 PM: Message edited by: MagiK ] |
