This whole war is driving me nuts. All wars do. It's just propaganda from this so called great leader who is just pissed off over something and can't fight their own battles. It's stupid, immature and childish. We wouldn't say to our kids, "oh if someone is bothering you, or doesn't live life the way that you think it should be lived, go and kill as many people as you can and then people will respect you." It's ridiculous! I don't understand this....when those Columbine shootings happened, for example, everyone critisized those boys for killing so many people just because they teased those kids and it finally drove them to the point of murder...YES, IT'S WRONG! But then you turn on you TV and hear of people getting in trouble for not supporting the troops to go and kill a bunch of other innocent people.....it's total hypocricy!!!!!! Just send George Bush and his congress over there. If you feel you have to resort to something as stupid as war, then go do the fighting yourself. I just don't understand this whole system! what makes one person matter so much more than everyone else? Why should this other person, who is just as equal as the rest of us, be allowed to give permission to kill a bunch of people and be respected for it? If he's got the problem, go fix it YOURSELF! DON"T kill a bunch of innocent people just to try and get your way!
what annoys me most is that america is allowed nuclear weapons when it's the ONLY country taking over other countries in the world. what's up with that? why do they get the weapons and no one else does, no one else is taking over countries....i want china to take over the USA just to teach them som form of odd lesson...
have you ever heard the song, "we all live in america" by rammstein? It's sooooo true! Nulear weapons are just another way that america is dominating the rest of the world.
i agree that bush should do his own fighting and not risk people's lives........why is his any more important than those fighting?
Heyy.....I like China.....I think I'm turning Chinese, I think I'm turning Chinese, I reallly think so.....(Does that work????) Lets all turn Chinese.
Teeny Tiny, It's good to read these thoughts from an 18 yr old. I was the same age during the Vietnam years. The president gave the same story. "The reason we are in Vietnam is so little Tania can live in a free country" (Richard Nixon, 1971). Jeez, the reason we were in Vietnam was because US corporations had their sweat-shops there so we could exploit them for cheap goods! Now it's oil, but the story is the same. Darrell
Yeah, well how many of you have a car? Stop driving and consuming gas and you'll do more then any protest.
America is not trying to take over iraq at all or any other country for that matter...watch the news more carefuly ..instead of hiding behind the sofa when things don't look pleasant.
yeah....hiding behind the sofa, actually my sofa is against a wall so it's quite hard to do so... well if sending your army into a country, killing their people, destroying their buildings and reinstating a new leader isn't taking a country over i really dont know what is.
well my sofa is up against a wall as well.. i meant it metaphoricaly as i am sure you realise. Killing innocent people is never good and that is unfortunate.. i have no time for zealots and barbarians chopping peoples heads off though. Did you not notice the elections and the new house of representatives..the iraqi people have some kind of democracy and it shall only get better... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3766401.stm none of its perfect but countless people won't be going missing and then being found dead in vast human graves anymore will they..?
hey, i never said that the war was good or bad i only said that it annoyed me that america deems itself as the only country that is allowed nuclear weapons or to attack people without dire consequences
It is not the only country allowed nuclear weapons.. They have had dire consequences from there actions, all the coalition forces have. Plus countries that are not 'fighting' and iraqi people on our side that were deemed traitors .. Even though if you read the koran, the actions of these so called 'freedom fighters' 'insurgents' and al quaeda are totaly contradicting most of what it says about 'war'... If you gave china nuclear weapons or they were allowed to make them then we would just have another 50 years worth of cold war going on.. and nobody not even the chinese want that.
