I wasn't trying to say you didn't have feelings b/c you weren't an American. I was saying that if you were an American and saying shit like that about the people who are out there defending America then you are a peice of shit. But since you don't live in America disregard the whole thing.
they're not defending america... since when is a pre-emptive strike self-defense???? lets say there was a guy who lived on your street, and every day he worked out until one day, he was huge... we're talking vin diesel huge... and he had NEVER EVER once picked a fight with you...

but all the time, you keep telling him "stop working out, you're too strong, stop it, stop it, stop it"...

and then one day, for no reason, you go kick his ass...

thats self-defense?

Would you quit saying that American's are brainwashed? Damn! Most of us don't even agree with the war. The whole point I was trying to make was agree or not support the people who are dying for you. I wasn't saying anything about agreeing with the war. I don't believe any of Bush's 'propaganda' America does not 'brainwash' people. Nazi Germany did that.
propaganda

n : information that is spread for the purpose of promoting some cause

bush is spreading information, promoting his war. therefore, thats propaganda.

Huh. Nowhere did I claim to know where Sadaam is hiding. It is common knowledge that they have bombed buildings that Sadaam was in , and he had to seek medical attention. That was the building I was refering to.
be careful how you use the term "common knowledge"... because its not... all you have is what someone told you... thats called hearsay... and in an american court of law, that wouldn't even be valid testimony.

Once again, the electoral process in the US does not depend on the magority of votes of the people. And actually the magority did vote for Bush. They did a recount in Flordia and he did win there, despite Al Gore's claims.
tell me again, because this is a very complicated issue that i REALLY REALLY care aboot... and considering ive only been america's neighbour for 19 years, i really haven't learned how the electoral process in america works...

how does it work? they take the majority vote, and make that person the president? yeah, thats what i thought.


Quote:
Well In America we also have something called Congress. If need be they can stop the President, they have the veto powers.Our goverment is not a dictatorship contrary to what some people believe.
kon-gres? whats that? not like i didn't cite an example using congress in one of my earlier posts...

if you're going to attempt to patronize me, at least use topics i haven't already shown evidence that i know aboot.

Heh. I don't think hes coming to my house, but I'm certainly not a signifigant enough person for him to waste his time on. He has million of other people to massacure first I'm sure.
All I know is that he was offered chances to disarm. He failed to. He has kicked Weapon Inspectors out repeatenly. I don't want to give him the chance to do whatever it is those weapons are made to do. I don't think anyone else does either.
so you agree with me that saddam poses no threat to you as a person.... funny you're so afraid of him...

You serioulsy don't believe this war is over oil do you? Do you know how much this war is going to cost the US? 90 BILLION dollers. Think how much oil that could buy...
ooooh! now you're getting to the good stuff.... 90 billion dollars... hmmmm, now where is that 90 billion dollars going???? your family paid its hard earned taxes, now where will that money go?

right into the pockets of billionaires!! you know those old white guys that own munitions companies... they're taking in all the profits of this so-called "freedom operation"

hey, here's an unrelated fact: these are the same people that funded bush's campaign! hey, what a non-coincidence!!! those two are totally unrelated!
