No man is free until all men are free - John Hossack
I agree completely with this Administration’s goal of a regime change in Iraq-John Kerry
even if that enforcement is mostly at the hands of the United States, a right we retain even if the Security Council fails to act-John Kerry
He may even miscalculate and slide these weapons off to terrorist groups to invite them to be a surrogate to use them against the United States. It’s the miscalculation that poses the greatest threat-John Kerry

If we are to end tyranny, we must not sink the the level of the tyrants.
To torture is to sink to the level of persons that torture. The USA has committed torturous acts in Iraq; I thought the USA was supposed to be ending such behaviors in Iraq.

When did you decide to start responding to people's post with vulgar invective rather then reason debate? Your use of all caps highlights this point. You are trying to get your point across with this written equivalent of yelling, but what you fall to realize is that you appear to be just ranting and refusing to hear your seemingly reasonable opponents speak.

While I respect Confed's opinion, yet I will state I was in worse situation than whats up in Iraq. At least the US can say 'up yours' to others, we cannot because we are not a suprepower. Therefore, we worked and are still working with one hand tied behind our back.
Notwithstanding, we are managing to keep to a great extent to the requirements of human rights organisations, the US watch. etc etc.
The US rrecently sent a team to our Counter Insurgency School for training. Therefore, I am sure they would have seen another way to handle the situation. However, whether the Iraqis will respond is another question. Personally, I don;t think so.
As I said one set of people have been taught to Forgive them Father for they know not what they do, while another are taught to kill the kaffirs. Both are on the extreme ends of the spectrum.
"Some have learnt many Tricks of sly Evasion, Instead of Truth they use Equivocation, And eke it out with mental Reservation, Which is to good Men an Abomination."
I don't have to attend every argument I'm invited to.

I remember when I was in college, I was pretty excited when I had my first beer, too. But it never went to my head like this chump.
There are about a million things wrong with the world. Pat Tillman was not one of those things. The rule is this - you don't like the war, hippy? Fine. But when you blame the troops, you're no longer an American.
By the way, Gonzalez was comparing Bush to Hitler on the basis that Bush's Patriot Act (which isn't "Bush's" Act by any means) eroded civil liberties such that we are beginning to resemble a fascist state. How sad and typical of our single-service culture that Gonzalez fails to connect the dots between Tillman's sacrifice and the civil liberties for which he pines. God damn hippy.
