Say whatever you want, but I can tell you from personal expierience, most of them hate us for religous reasons. It may be hard for you to accept it, but they do. There are two towers that are no more along with 3000 innocent civilian dead to prove it, they danced in the streets and burned our flags after this. I have walked the streets in Arab lands, they hate us, with the exception of a few like some of the Kurds, because we are the only reason they are alive today. You can dig up all the liberal articles you want on this, I have been the target of their hate, I have first hand knowledge, they hate us. [/quote]
the 3000 dead are from a particular group. it is a group very comparable to the KKK in the US, which is a group of individuals that most view disdainfully.
the entire population of the muslim world wasn’t behind the attacks on 9/11 any more than the entire us is behind the KKK when they drag a black guy behind a truck.
you can’t really be that ignorant can you?
and after 9/11, muslim leaders world wide were some of the first to show support for US citizens and apologized for the actions of the few quickly. most muslims were very outspoken at how angry they were at the jihadists for creating such awkward situations for every one else.
the people dancing in the streets were also not the majority. they were mostly punk kids who undoubtedly have no idea what is going on and a minority of adults.
i don’t really believe you have walked muslim streets, usually americans who go to the middle east are intelligent engineers and lawyers with more insight than you express. but maybe you drove a truck? in which case you were escorted by marines who parade through towns with machine guns?
of course you saw anger. i’d be pissed if canada was run by a terrorist group who bombed china, and china sent armed troops to my town in the US.
that doesn’t mean they hate us and want us all dead, they just want our military out of their country, as any countrymen of any country would. even so, very few are violent against our forces. most have sided with us and we train them militarily! why would the majority join us if they hated us? you are a dumb ass aren’t you?
and if you spew shit like this, of course you’ll get hostile responses. that doesn’t mean they hate you, they just think you are a dipshit. and you are.
or maybe you were in the military? in which case you would have been placed directly in the company of the minority of muslims who do hate us, which would have undoubtedly seemed like they were the majority to you, because that was all you were exposed to. but, your perception is off. most military veterans talk about how friendly the majority of people are over there, and are intelligent enough to realize that the people they are fighting are actually the minority.
i knew the military entrance exams were super easy, but not so easy retards could join! what a shame. they should have a mandatory IQ test as well.
and please know what you are talking about before you throw political vocabulary around. i’m actually pretty politically conservative. “liberal” has become a misused title to replace what we used to call “hippie”.
the difference now is that we don’t need to be in iraq, where most of our military is concentrated. they pose no threat to us.
we should be in afganistan slaughtering warlords and hunting for osama.
in the 60’s, we were right where we needed to be, fighting a communist country, part of our actual comprehensive enemy at the time.
so keep yourself in line, know what you are saying and try to think outside your own box, which is obviously a very small box.
