    US citizens cant have a balanced idea about their army and world events simply because their army answers to NO international war crimes tribunal.

    no american general/president/soldier can be convicted of genocide/murder/terrorism and this paints a "pretty and legit" picture...

    to have real justice you have to have something to implement it with and you cant bring a nuclear bully to justice simply because he is above the law...to enforce the law you have to be stronger than the villans...

    hell the USA is so economically powefull that it can bribe/force smaller countries to agree with it...if the economic pressure does not work they can always resort to violence...

    for real justice people need to make america respect them and this is, unfortunately , only possible with force because international justice/law is something they do not recognize ...

    Sure, I don't like fact that 1,000,000 Iraqies got killed but we discussing about Russia and you can't excuse one crime with another. Find threads about Iraq and you will see what I think about occupation of Iraq beacuse of their oil.

    I honestly do not get how rational humans actually think that the objection most the world has to US foriegn policy is due to "the world hating them for their freedoms" something I hear so much. Do those types not realize most the world is democratic, you would think it's some novel concept the way they talk.

    Source please?

    I don't like the fact that muslim terrorists were blowing up Iraqis on a daily basis for years because they were convinced virgins were just around the corner. Don't care much for the islamists who support those terrorists by giving their credit away to others.

    The fact is, saddam killed more than a million people during his tenure. muslims have killed thousands and thousands, while the US has succeeded in large part in eliminating those terrorists who were killing Iraqis on a daily basis.

    Russia is no different than terrorist groups. Invading, without warning or diplomacy, then repeatedly lying about pulling out. The only advantage Russia has, is that it's a hundred times larger in force than the small nation they went in and massacred, based upon pure propaganda.

    Russia, too, will be put back in their place.

    As if you give two shits about Iraqi lives, you should be more concerned about your own veterans being neglected and the soldiers dieing over a cold lie. And who are you to say who will be put back in their place, you think America runs the world?

    Well, let's see. I give a crap about anyone that wants freedom and to live in peace. Wouldn't you rather have peaceful muslims in the world? Wouldn't you rather see your brothers and sisters live in the same kind of freedom you enjoy? Or, maybe you would rather them live under different circumstances?

    I care about the veterans of my country as well. Not that I believe anyone who openly supports and cheers for al qaida does.

    And finally, who am I to say Russia will be put back in their place? I'm GTech, of course. A proud American and a citizen in a world where their behavior is frowned upon.

    Let me know if you have anymore questions, big man ;)

    You know GTech is absolutley desperate when he has to dig back months old posts, posts that were posted by me in a manner that was taking the piss, in a mockingly fashion, to try and get an upper hand in an argument, nice work man LOL.

    A man who supports freedom but at the same time supports McWar and the slaughter of a million Iraqis, haha, that is like being told to sit up straight by the hunchback of notredame!

    Gtech, who hides behind a computer monitor, avatar and screen name. Tell us "big man" what have you done for your country? And please do not try to answer a question with a question, I know it's hard for you, but try.

    I've taken a lot of "piss" here. I've never used that as an excuse to support terrorists.

    Freedom isn't free. I don't support muslims slaughtering millions of Iraqis, or those in Darfur, or anywhere else. Maybe you should explain why you do?

    I do support the US and Iraqis getting rid of those murdering terrorists so that they can live in the kind of peace you enjoy. I'm sure you have valid reasons for not supporting freedom for Iraqis.

    I believe we've covered this before, but I don't mind if you want to set me up for gworld and the other islamists that you admire. I've been around the block a few times ;)

    I served my country for seven years, two enlistments in the US Army, back in the 80s.

    Now let's see where you go with that. ;)

    Why? Afraid I would ask you the same? I mean, seriously, have you ever said anything good about the country you immigrated to? Other than ceaselessly whine while enjoying the fruits of better men and women that died for your freedom, what have you done for your country?

    Enlistments? What does that actually mean? You just enlist and collect a check? Kind of like a mercenary?

    Nobody has died for my freedom in my lifetime. I was born free and I owe you nothing! As far as my contributions they are not Military in nature. For you everything is life and death, war and peace, terrorists and "freedom", your mind is way too closed to see that there is so much more to life, so no matter what I say you do not possess the capacity to understand anyways.

    You can look it up on the web. If I actually thought you were asking because you wanted to know, instead of asking as a means to degrade those that serve the country you migrated to, I'd shed some more light on it.

    Quite the contrary. Many men and women better than you or I will ever be, have fought so this country can be free. Some people are too self-absorbed and self-centered to appreciate what others before them have done. Freedom isn't free.

    I was pretty sure you hadn't done anything for your country, other than ceaselessly criticize it and work with those who seek to tear it down everyday on this forum.
