    Most of them don't realize where they are, or why they're there. So, no... they don't deserve to be attacked.

    The "deserters" in Canada are the ones I'd want fighting for me.

    what about when you go out of your way to corrupt the youth of your religion in other countries to blow themselves up on busses and trains, what about when you go out of your way to send scores of young men to train to die and later go on to steal millions of dollars worth of equipment and kill hundreds of people by crashing it into a building ...

    You're only called a terrorist if you actively support terrorism.

    no, when you support people who blow up hospitals, blow up shopping markets, blow up schools, use retarded kids as bombs to further your goals; you are a terrorist. its not a difficult concept.

    you can choose to support these types of people, if you want, but i hope you can sleep at night, while some retarded kid is drug up to a building and blown to pieces

    If a foreign military force invaded and occupied the land in which I live, I would support attacks against them.

    Same here. However, that is not the case here. Or are you inferring that you would attack liberation force, because you support terror?

    Care to clarify?

    What a fuckin stupid thing to say, there is a military presence because the country is unstable, going around shooting at people doing thier jobs isn't a way to convince the occupying forces otherwise.

    The correct answer is, if a foreign military force occupied the land in which I live I would do everything I can to help them achieve thier goals so I could have my country back to myself ....

    Not fuckin shoot at them, ingrate .....

    So if China invaded, you would help the Chinese army? You will probably be shot or arrested by your own military.

    I don't think you have the capability to think beyond what you see with your eyes.

    If the US was overrun by terrorists and China invaded to help liberate us from the Terrorist, I am pretty sure people would help.

    I think that is what he was trying to say.


    No, you certainly do not. Your problem is, you are so emotionally wrapped up in the war, you've lost site of why we are there.

    I'm pretty sure the Americans who fought for freedom from British rule here were also branded terrorists and insurgents.

    You're right. The terminology is flexible depending upon who is using it.

    Great sig btw. Too bad folks have forgotten about the Father of the Constitution (James Madison) and what the Constitution is about.

    What exactly are you asking? Terrorism has got nothing to do with this issue here. i don't think you know what the word terrorism means anyway.

    When you say 'thats not the case here', what do you mean? Can you even remember why coalition forces invaded Iraq? It was a preemptive attack, an act of aggression.

    Anyway, I don't want to argue over this same issue (not today ;))

    One day, after we have both died, peace will arrive in Iraq.

    I bet you didn't have an opinion on the war in 2003, these days everyone has something to say.

    So why did this war begin?

    To me, a terrorist is someone who both fears and hates freedom. Freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom to do whatever they like, so long as they do not violate or harm the freedom or persons of another.

    They hate this so much, that they would rather kill, bomb, and murder those that have it, than to partake in it.


    The US was enforcing UN Resolution 1441. I bet you did not know that.. :D

    (Oh, of course we did wait 12 years to do it...)

    You're the only one arguing here.


    It's gonna take a while, but certainly not that long.

    BTW, Terrorists or pessimists too. :eek:

    Respectfully, I think you need to read this.

    If china invaded you country because they thought the US government was developing capabilities and intentions to attack china, how would you feel?

    What if the Chinese military that is killing your fellow citizens and occupying your land then decided the war was a 'mistake' but still decided they better stay to impose there idea of a stable government (communism).

    Imagine if it was happening in your world, rather than just on the TV.

    Of course you would be outraged by the scum-bag foreign troops destroying your city, you would support Americans who try and fight back.

    The Chinese military would call any Americans that fight back 'terrorists', and people back in china watching the war on their TVs would be thinking 'why dont those terrorists stop fighting and accept peace'.

    Anyway, have a nice day.

    Remind me why we are there, with references please.

    The question is not labeling whos a terrorist. It doesn't matter what label you choose it won't change reality.

    The true question to ask is in 2007 there is mass hatred , suffering , violence , blood shed , torment , torture.

    All families suffer , ALL sides are losing.

    Whoever causes more destruction and kills the most wins but what did they win? Are they not equally humans? Are we not

    killing our own people? Do they not laugh , cry , love , suffer , have families? Just like anyone else?

    Destruction and suffering of human lives has been won , thats the SAD ultimate prize achieved. What have we gained?

    Whats the cause and why?

    I'm not sure all sides are losing...the main thing is that a radical religion is being shown for what it really is, and that brave soldiers are doing all they can to actually protect innocent people being killed by these islamic radicals.

    Exactly. For some reason the answers here remind me a lot of this old lady teacher we had in 5th grade who could never figure out who thru stuff against the wall while she was writing on the board. And then she punished everyone.

    my point was , we're all on one side. believe it or not , we're all one manifestation of a whole universe with many observers and many events simaltaneously happening at once. that side that is losing is YOU.

    war is a expression of a violent mind , what we're creating is hell , and i dont know about you but i don't like the idea of creating a hell.

    maybe you might not grasp on to what i am saying right now , but later its possible that you will.
