…invading Afghanistan and Iraq for their vast natural resources was a sound business decision. Nobody cares about men, women and children being killed on the other side of the world in order to get those natural resources. Eat or be eaten, that’s nature’s way…

Something tells me you wouldn’t joke about killing kids if it was happening by the hands of Afghan men in the US. [/quote]
Something tells me you wouldn’t be so offended if it was Muslim terrorists killing innocent Americans.[/quote]
Well that’s wrong because I would.

You know better than this. The war won’t move to American soil if we leave.
It’s propaganda and nothing more.

We are not murdering 20 - 50 million of our own people (and throwing our own people in the Gulags simply for spitting in the streets) though…

Fixed.

It was late ok? I decided to be conservative haha…
Anyways, is there anyone who is planning on doing anything about this? Or is everyone opposed to U.S. presence in the middle east going to continue to sit on the sidelines and complain?
Go ahead and call me a monster, but I’d rather see ten thousand Afghan children die than see one American child die.

Because “Murican” children are superior and thus far moar important than their brown skinned, funny talking, Afghan counterparts?

Dont be silly.
Some of them are so young, they do not talk at all.

At least you are open about your xenophobia.

But hey, they are still brown skinned and inferior.
They deserve to bombed, naturally.

This thread is pretty much over, you really can’t argue with this. If that was my premise, then current U.S. foreign policy would seem perfectly rational and effective to me as well.
P.S., check out the Jon Stewart stand up, funny how a decade old video is still somewhat relevant

I was thinking about this earlier and you know what… the richest civilizations on Earth MUST continue to advance in order for the human race to advance. There are now known dangers outside of our planet that will need to be delt with for the human race to continue and thrive and we must protect our economy, scientists and technologies to forge a brighter human future.
tell me now… HAVE I LOST MY FUCKING MIND??!
that doesnt mean we have to wipe them out… we need to become dependent on each other’s economies, if nations are thriving it is our best bet that they will not want to go to war.
Education, globalization… these are all tools that will make the individual realize that we are not enemies, but regular people, just like they are… understanding breeds peace.

Actually there isnt.
Only very, very few benefit, but they benefit massively.
It works like any other racket.
Yeh so concerning spyoptic’s point we just need for those few that are benefiting to be putting their resources toward technological advancement, right? Is that not mostly the case?
