It’s incredible, read over my posts and you will see that i have stated simply facts in simple English
Yet I have received such a hostile reaction, why? Because I don’t support your governments decision? and instead choose to sympathize with people who are suffering because of your leaders decisions, be them iraqi or coalition forces Is that such a sin? And your basis for invasion and occupation is faulty intelligence and an invitation to stay, wow thats a good cause to kill or be killed over Quote:
This war is a long way away and I only hear about it through the media (which i dont completely trust as it is subject to spin). Essentially I am personally unconnected to it. Fair enough some posters on this board are ex forces, but others have never been to iraqi or met an iraqi so why are you so personally involved? Has any iraqi ever hurt you?

George Orwell wrote an essay (that is why I referred to him, as in he knows all about your type) that to take a 'neutral' stand in the face of evil is to abet that evil.
I'll try to find it and reproduce it here. It is a masterpeice of clear thinking and honesty, and he knows of what he speaks: he saw it PERSONALLY. It's true: you're the enemy. You would see them - the terrorists, the people that are blowing up and beheading your countrymen and mine - triumph over decency, and you have the gall to state that it's nothing to YOU, you're a long way away from all that beastly yuckiness, and you couldn't care less WHAT the hell happens next. Can you not see how fallen and debased you are, that you are the worst sort of decadent, mewling, weak and grotesque moral cripple? Are you THAT unaware of yourself? Fellas, it's 'men' like this that make me despair sometimes that we - the West, civilization as we know it - have the clarity, strength and will to beat back this challenge. Losers like this pitiful example here would have us ALL lose, and join him in crouching, crawling slavery to an aggressive and backwards ideology, because to actually FACE an evil and confront it would be HARD, possibly even DANGEROUS. However, it is also to be halfway home to defeating it. But he can't summon the balls, brains, guts, spine, heart and MUSCLE to even be honest about what's at stake. He tells himself and us that, as long as nobody gets beheaded in Trafalgar Square, it's no big deal to HIM. Actually, maybe not even THEN. Tell us, brian: how far do live from Trafalgar Square? Far enough for it not to matter if shari'a law's greatest penalty is carried out there after Friday prayer? May your chains rest lightly upon you, cowardly and emasculated dhimmi-boy. Actually, you need not fear that, either, because SOME of us will at least hold the gates for the rest of your miserable and unexceptional life.
