Subject: Americans must respect Islam
salaam al-aqaaid    5/13/2004 10:18:35 AM
The outrageous atrocities commited by Americans at the Abu al-Grayyib prison complex speaks to a need for the United States Americans to give sensetivity training to its entire military so that they will no longer offind Muslims with the contemptious use of women as prison guards and unsavery adiction to homosexual pornographies. These things are offinsive to the Muslims community. Have you no shame? You must remove all women and homosexuals from contact with Muslim prisoners. This is offinsive.

"I am informing you that no politician in the present administration is happy about Abu G." No politician ever likes getting caught.

"No I am not. Nothing I said justified an invasion of Somolia, and I have never proposed it." You certainly made points about the nature of how you viewed Iraq that would apply more to Somalia than Iraq. If your points don’t justify invading Somalia, then there is even less justification for Iraq. Glad you made that clear.

“Are you suggesting we should NOT promote what is in our economic, political and security interests? That it would somehow be better? I bet you like the Kerry proposal to TALK to North Korea directly. “ Right, don’t talk to NK because they’re insane, just talk to the American electorate instead about how insane North Korea is. Oooh, like that isn’t the clinically insane brainchild of some wack job analyst like El Cider. El Cider house rules: Mislead whenever possible while sounding reasonable. If someone notices, call them crazy. After calling them crazy, make insane statements to show how insane they are.

"You display no willingness to even admit any good consequences, no matter how great they are." I've admitted numerous minor positive consequences of the Grand Strategy (whenever one hears that term, think Monty Python and you'll get its real purpose). There are no Akbar consequences for this bozo policy, unless one is hoping to cause the decline of the American Republic. So, I suppose Al Qaeda msut be saying "Thank Allah for the Akbar Strategy"!

"Imperialism (capital I) was a formal, defined state policy. My own ancestors were victimized by it." Everybody's ancestors were victimized by it, what has that got to do with Neoimperialism?

"But it is not our plans that put Chinese in sweatshops..." Oh, so you are saying you are NOT a Neoconservative? That would be good to hear, then you would deserve some human respect.

"Rebrooku, what have you done that is so heroic that you can call others cowards? Have you volunteered to serve your country in its wars?" I'll tell you what I and almost anyone in this country could say to that. I haven't avoided serving my country in a manner that really risked anything and then sent others to needlessly die for my personal benefit and then bs'ed about it. "Have you dared to make even one positive suggestion (that might fail) about how to win the war?" Yah, but as usual you ingnored it so you can keep saying the same old tired bs about that.

"And it takes physical courage to volunteer to serve in intelligene, the military, etc. Until you do these sorts of things, please do not call cowards those who have served, and who are trying to work out a policy." I have no problems with "those who have served, and who are trying to work out a policy". That ain't who decided on this war. When you start losing relatives in Iraq, and subsequently at home in America, then maybe you can relate to the real costs this idiotic mistake.

"When you start losing relatives in Iraq, and subsequently at home in America, then maybe you can relate to the real costs this idiotic mistake" Rbrooku, I've lost 2 friends in Iraq: one to an accident, one in combat. I do miss them, but both of them strongly believed in the mission and why they were in Iraq. I have talked to literally dozens of soldiers who either are or have been in Iraq (including one who was wounded who worked for my company), and > 90% expressed the same sentiments. If Iraq is to be lost, I believe it will most likely be because of loss of will on the homefront, a loss of will which you are displaying here for all to see. This is the main reason why the terrorists film beheadings of innocent persons, and try to kill as many US soldiers as possible. Think about that the next time you shoot off your mouth. NewGuy

I apologize for the "shooting your mouth off" part in my previous post. I just get a bit peeved when I see my fellow Americans make claims such as yours -- that those who die in Iraq are somehow "victims" of some insidious plot by the government, which in effect dishonors what they fought and believed in. My friends who lost their lives would be the first to remind us of this, were they here. NewGuy
