I'm not naive, I'm just making a generalisation of Jewish people as I've noticed from them. I see these Neo-Nazis etc.. and the Jews never complain or kill anyone. Interesting.
Brum, Brum, Brum... you try and act as if you are so open minded. Jewish people??? What in the heck are you talking about? You think Jewish people are Israeli's? Israeli's may be jewish people but the opposite is certainly not applicable. That's like saying I know some negro people and they're not all greaet dancers. Seeing a couple negro in London does not make you any more an expert on Africa than going to your local synagogue would make you an expert on the character of the Israeli people. Come on, man, why would Jewish people have to go and hunt down terrorists in England? Jesus Christ almighty, do you not even understand how prejudice your statement sounds? So rife with generality?
I agree with BRUm. There was no need to kill him, he was in captivity. It just sends out a message of revenge, some think it's "justice". And all of you who are actually celebrating his execution are just as sadistic as he was.
If I were on the other side I would probably be upset that Saddam was executed too... I guess I can understand exe and brum's frustration here...
Dead_Corn, you totally misunderstood my statement. If my statement did come across as prejudice, I apologise, but I don't think it did. Where have you got the idea I said Jewish people are Israelis? I was just pointing out that a lot of people like to give a view on things, like you, who are just following everyone else. You even said yourself your sons are not in the army, so why hate Saddam so much? It makes no sense and makes you look like a sheep. It would be quite fitting to say grow up.. but seeing as you're a father I don't think it'd apply as well... Think for yourself for once, waking up and seeing "Saddam has been executed" all over the news is not my idea of a laugh. It saddened me, as it would if ANYONE was executed.
Apology accepted. The two thoughts in your sentence are incongruous. My sons are not in the army. They cannot be because they are 7 and 8 years old. The difference between us and THEM is that the islamists believe my sons even now at their tender age are viable military targets. Hence the gassing of Saddam's own people. Whole villages, men, women, and children. I feel no sense of happiness at his execution. I feel a sense of justification. There is sadness though that such things must be. He brought it on himself and I believe he will likely rot in hell.
Me playing dumb? No... you're playing dimwit by making vague accusations. The only side I'm on here is the one opposing capital punishment. It's amusing how you jump to conclusions that I'm "on the other side", or is that "secular progressive" as your demigod Bill Oreilly calls it
So you are saying you are not playing? Why not get a Jump to Conclusions Mat. I don't like Oreilly.. I don't even watch that there Fox News...
