Yep, war sucks. What's your point? If we ended up killing foreign fighters, then I'm fine with the collateral damage, although I would be careful to accept the Syrian government's word at face value, as The Guardian seemed to do.
Bush/Cheney are deliberately stirring the pot over there by attacking neighboring countries, hoping to inflate the turmoil to such a mess that Obama will have difficulty withdrawing the troops (Halliburton's protectors). Their other objective is to stir up enough fresh hate that someone attacks us before Nov. 4th. It's called TREASON, and people have been executed for it in the past. My, how things have changed.
Barrack Obama has said repeatedly that he would favor attacks into Pakistan if necessary to get Osama bin Laden, so where's the difference?
By the same token, I'm sure you'll be understanding if relatives of the innocent children killed come over here and kill your family?
We're at war. Grow up. Innocents get killed. I find it funny how quick you are to believe Syria, however.
No, treason is when you badmouth the troops fighting in the battlefield, or say the war is unwinnable, which saps our forces' morale. The Dems are guilty of both.
No, we're not at war. I am generally opposed to killing humans, other than in self-defense, and neither Syria, Pakistan, nor Iraq have ever attacked the US. I would never kill people on someone else's say-so. You are not at war, for reasons you have not stated, and choose to be a cowardly Rally Girl for those dying in your place in protecting Halliburton. You could add a shred of credibility to your posts if you would only enlist and go fight side-by-side with them.
Actually, that's known as Free Speech, a cornerstone of our country's foundation. The Dems are guilty of being Real Americans, nothing more, nothing less.
Yes we're at war, we're at war with fanatics, and religion freaks all over the world, but mostly concentrated in the Middle East area. So any attack is fair, just like they bombed our country, destroyed our economy (this mess we're in now is the aftermath of 9/11), and will continue to attack/bomb/and kill our men and women, and our freedom.
Yes, we are. In fact, I was close with several who lost their lives in the sneak attack. I guess Nazis that went to Argentina shouldn't have been extracted either. I'm not opposed to killing anyone who kills others. In fact, I often think death is too good for them. Name call all you wish, but you bet as an American I'm at war. Gotcha. So only those that donned uniforms in past wars were at war? Oh yeah, I almost forgot...yawn.
If you care about free speech, you should be at war too. If it were the 1940s, there would have been congressmen tried for treason based on their statements.
you were close to the syrian farm family? yes. It's pretty obvious. When's the last time your life was in danger?
Bush/Cheney are the ones threatening my Freedoms, and I fight them by USING my Freedoms. Nonsense. In the 1940's many politicians were against the war(s) for many different reasons. None were tried for treason as far as I know.
Oh, dear. Someone's trying to make a funny over the death of 3,000 people, some of whom were my friends. It's nice to see that you believe the intentional murder of innocent civilians is equivalent to the regrettable alleged deaths of civilians in a war zone, put into danger by cowards trying to hide among them. Never, thanks to our brave troops. You should realize they not only protect our lives, but our freedoms.
You continue to believe that. If you really want your freedoms threatened, try living under Sharia law. Yes, they were pacifists. They had philosophical differences, not political ones. They never put the Nazis on the same moral level as our troops. They never accused US troops of war crimes before they were even tried.
None of these countries, or their dead citizens, have ever threatened me in any way, shape, or form. To protect my Freedoms, they would have to storm the White House, and imprison Bush/Cheney. The mass-murder you are waving as justification has been proven to be perpetrated by 19 puppets from SAUDI ARABIA. Why aren't we fighting in SAUDI ARABIA? Because Halliburton doesn't need our protection there. Why haven't we made any attempt to capture or kill Bin Laden in 7 friggin' years? Because the Bush and Bin Laden families are 2 peas in a pod, and co-conspirators.
How do you know? I always love when you make a post just to say something silly. I bet you're really good at checkers. Too bad war is chess. Ah, so because there has been nothing advertised, you believe we're not trying to capture him? Great stuff. Highly entertaining.
