Some western dickweeds thought it would be a good idea to go to the middle east and chop off some heads, unless those heads would convert to their religion. And they went, and chopped off many a head.

Who started this whole mess? We did.
Why does the general public in the middle east dislike us? Cause we won’t leave them the fuck alone.

Why don’t we leave the middle east for what it is for a moment and concentrate on something new?

Like Africa, I hear there’s some real problems going on there. Just think how many people we could save using all that military hardware and those trillions of dollars spent on bullets, to help them to some clean water instead?

I think that the people in the middle east will dislike the wes t a lot less if our troops would just stop shooting up their homes. They’ll get pissed at their neighbours yes… But at lest we won’t be giving them a bad example to follow. and they won’t be so happy to fly aircraft in buildings.

Just a suggestion from a hippy. Swords to plowshears, people. Peace.

I agree with Bryan’s comments that this year’s BB wasn’t as good as last year. Why? Well I felt like I wasn’t hearing anything new. Everything was a continuation of last year. Although the resounding message seemed to be ‘we…

You are indeed a wise old sage… any chance of a free office on one of your sims?

In SL, this is apparently very much easier to do. You can make a t-shirt, plot a movement as “plot tracer” and get none other than John Cage of Sun Microsystems, who is the “Man” that you would like to “bring down” in your silly newspapers, to don that t-shirt.

I think it’s important to expose this sort of stuff as it gets going in SL.

I’ll bet few people showing up at this demo thought they were also showing up for an extremist agenda a la the Spartacist League. They may have wished to protest US involvement in a war, full stop. They may not have wished to embrace Castro and every other rogue tyrant out there, but yet, hooking up with you and your website, now they are. It’s despicable.

Sectarians with fervent belief systems and doctrinaire programs are always energized to show up, hijack agendas, move among people who are clueless, etc. and take advantage of them. I hate that sort of thing.

I don’t think you can get America to stop being a capitalist country. That’s not only what the majority of people want it to be; it’s what the millions escaping tyranny and povery from other shores whose regimes you sanctify (like Castro’s) want it to be. So I’m afraid that the masses you love to invoke vote with their feet.

No, I don’t think espousing a capitalist or liberal world view is at all sectarian. That’s because when people are free and have the democratic institutions to chose, they chose it. Socialism has mainly had to be imposed on people by force; when they chose it, they chafe under it and then chose out of it unless they’re killed.

I don’t know the current issues surrounding the UK’s missiles, but I have to say, that in Europe, Western Europe is still in the gunsights of the old Soviet Union, which hasn’t reformed much. Europe now gets 60 percent of its energy from Russia and Central Asia — it’s hugely dependent. Even when a Russian ex-psy is poisoned, they are powerless to do anything. So perhaps they hang on to their nukes because they understand deep down the nature of the forces they are dealing with on their continent.

I’ve followed bodycount religious. I used to even cite it in my own news stories. But then I began to see they were filling it up with every single unchecked wire story. Wire stories are always inflated, and often get re-filed and corrected a dozen times, but sources that grabbed them the first time don’t come back and fix them. But what matters isn’t whether there are 100,000 deaths or 10,000. The war is wrong, and even 1 death is wrong in Iraq. If you are going to bandy about numbers, do keep in mind that terrorists funded by Iran, and various other homegrown insurgents have also contributed to the deaths, and they’re the ones doing most of the assassinations of intellectuals, doctors, engineers, former governemnt officials, police trainees, current governemnt ministers — it’s the extremist believe that you can impose this fascistic form of Islam through murdering the skilled people in the society. I don’t hear you condemning THAT.

And I don’t hear you having a solution for what to do about that murderousness. If U.S. force is clumsy and suspect and tainted — which it is — then…um…I guess you can leave it to Russia, China, and Sudan to run things. Good luck!

BTW, the “slaughter of the children” in Iraq is one of the biggest fake canard stories of all time. Even the Nation debunked that old myth concocted by a few UN third world bureaucrats to try to affect policy. Life expectancy of children was higher in the areas Sadam controlled the least. This story is one of the ones easily refuted.

It’s like the “100,000 children” who were going to be slaughtered when the U.S. invaded Afghanistan or Iraq. Um, it didn’t happen that way, and not in those numbers, and not for those reasons. Oppose these invasions all you like — just don’t make up totally fake stories about kids to do it.

I’m all for bringing home our boys, and reducing U.S. intervention — and I’d like to hear your plan for minimizing the impact on the region of war-hardened terroristic extremist organizations.

and that’s why I won’t be reading your website, as it will not grapple with those kinds of complex problems.

And a solution? Well – yes I do think there is a solution – but one you will find too ludicrous to contemplate…. and that is for America to realise that oil profits are miniscule compared to the good will and lives that would be saved if it were to become the state it set out to be – that is one run with the peoples interests at heart rather than the interests of the money man and the priveledged few. Of course adherence to capitalism is NOT sectarian – and the subsect of capitalism that is liberalism does not fit that description. A subset that allows money to freely roam the globe finding poor people to exploit – while people are not allowed to leave their own countries as freely (if at all) to find work to feed their families.

By the way, the UK has announced a £100billion replacement of its nukes – nukes that will never be used – and money borne out of the working mans sweat. How will these nukes benefit the working man? Well much in the way the old ones did – not a jot.

And as for the man in the Whitehouse and his stooge Blair here in the UK – they can lay claim to over 100 000 deaths (Iraq Body count, the site that only counts the deaths reported by a media afraid to travel in iraq and by govt sources put the figure at over 62000 – still even more than Saddam and his american installed regime – and deaths are now at a rate of 100 a day – a figure unthinkable before the US and UK troops went in to secure the Iraq oil ministry…. erm help the people….cough cough). These people WOULD NOT have died had Saddam not decided to change his oil currency to euros rather than dollars – as the Iranian Govt recently did, so racking up the US pressure.

Lies lies lies. And speaking from the first imperialist country to go into the middle east and slaughter for a lie, the lie will not be forgotten – as will the slaughter of children (which started back in Clinton and Majors days – but people seem to think the war in Iraq was a recently started phenomena). And speaking as someone born in Ireland and having lived there for 27 years – I can assure you, people in the middle east will fight and fight and fight until the yoke of the invader has been lifted.

Solution? Don’t give them anything to fight about – lets get the hell out and bring home our boys!

This just shows your complete failure to stick your head outside your own little thought box. If that is the only excuse you need to invade another country, then NO WONDER pursuing atomic power becomes a high priority. It’s the only way to deter US from steamrolling over them to force on them the Only Just, Right, True Way To Live(tm).

Panda: I would prefer to live in the “Western” part, and someone from the middle-east would probably want to to live in the “Eastern” part. Are you saying my opinion is superior because I’m already a westerner? If so, then you are indeed the retard here”

“No, killing gays for having sex is not justifiable,”

Gee, so a country is civilization is greatly, flamboyantly unjust — that certainly doesn’t make it an inferior place to live!
