I'm not pointing to anybody here, it's everywhere... newspapers, glamour intellectuals, bar flies and lounge lizards, has-been artists on a comeback, fanatic preachers etc...
Thanx for your sympathies, flibulzbuth. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Is it really all that hard for us all to learn to get along? Sigh...

who cares, its a war. you have to break some eggs to make an omlette. of course it sux that they are innocent lives, but those same people probably cheered when the planes hit. not to mention that they WERE shooting guns into the air, be it tradition or not, the pilots didnt know that. i dont mean to sound like a savage, but these things are going to happen. lets not forget future terrorist attacks on the US and throughout the world. they arent going to quit, and it is dumb. again, it is sad that they died if innocent, but lets not forget that in war, people die. not all may be enemy, but like in Vietnam, you can never tell who is and who isnt.

Lets not forget about future US attacks on the world. 1998 US bombing of Libyia killed more civilians than the terrorists them selves did. More people died in Afghanistan than did in the WTC.

Lets not forget that in war people die you say. They may not all be enemy you say.
Lets not forget that in war people died in Afghanistan. They were not all the enemy as percieved by the Americans. But to strike at the heart of the enemy civilians had to die.
Lets not forget that in war people died in the WTC. They were not all the enemy as percieved by al-Qaeda. But to strike at the heart of the enemy civilians had to die.

I saw a US colonel on the news and he said groundforces were active in that area but were taking fire from out that village. They asked for air support and when it came aa missiles were fired from out that village as well. So now they don't only bring ak 47's to a wedding, but they bring SAM's as well ???. WEDDING MY ASS ! It's another Arab lie, just carpetbomb the whole place !

Oh no I saw some aid workers come to the Middle East on the news. But someone gave them weapons, do we no longer only bring medicine to help the sick, but they bring weapons as well? But it was just another American lie, AID WORKERS MY ASS! Now innocents children are dead because of that. Why don`t we go fly some more planes into American landmarks?!

but consider that wedding. the man and the woman would have had children, probably four or five. out of those five one was bound to be a terrorist. plus all the guests. im sure there were at least 10 terrorist in the 200 guests. plus, we destroyed some 20 ak47. less firepower for them too. so all in all, the operation was a resounding success. a weapons cache destroyed, and one future terrorist and 10 terrorists killed.

so bomb them all i say, and quit wasting time. bomb the mosques, bomb the schools and bomb the hospitals. it will save time and money, cause in all those civilians theres bound to be terrorists, or future terrorists.
