  1. See but that's exactly the problem, that they are NOT ALLOWED to clean their own back yard! Because the UN and all the other arab boot lickers won't let them!! (by means of political and economical sanctions)

    The whole problem is the UN... that's the problem in this world of ours :D

  2. No way, the US has actually done some good in this world? Don't try telling that to so many of these ultra-liberal writers, students and academics.

  4. And it's the same country that supports dictators in Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan accused by international watchdogs of tortures on political opponents. Guess why it is so? Answer: The US has military bases in these countries. Can you spell 'Hypocrisy'? It does not spell the same as 'America' but there is no difference in meaning. And BTW, no humanitarian action gives you the right to wage wars. And no, without the freedom movements in the former Soviet block, most notably the Solidarity movement in Poland, you would not have had the Berlin Wall demise. You take too much credit for all that. The US did not succeed in Vietnam, it would not have succeeded with the former Soviet block if it were not for internal freedom movements and that's precisely the reason why it will not succeed in Iraq. Freedom eventually triumphs. Always.

    The US has hijacked the notion of freedom for its political purposes just as Israel and Zionists have hijacked the notion of Holocaust. Freedom is possible without America, just as Holocaust has happened to other nations even during WWII. Some of these nations actually put out a good fight against Nazis which is probably the main reason why they do not suffer from the victim syndrom now and did not make their own Holocausts into a religion.

    Freedom-yes, American and Israeli hypocrisy-no!

  6. Uh, if Churchill hadn't led Britain with his great resolve, the UK may have fallen, and the Nazis, along with the Japanese emperor, might be ruling most of the world (and still massacring people no doubt).

  7. exactly. What's funny is that even many of the countries that opposed the war believed, before hand, that he possessed WMDs (at least in the form of chemical weapons). Its just amazing how brillian Sean Penn is that he knew all along.

  8. And what can Egypt offer us??

    And its funny how far you are reaching. It doesn't matter the populations, what matters is how much is costs for a country to defend itself. Whether Taiwan has 1 million or 50 million people, it needs to defend itself.

  10. egypt lies at the intersection of europe asia and africa.
    together with turkey they are by far the most strategically important countries.

    aid to egypt is not for its military, what are u talking about with defending? they have 80 million people most of them living in poverty.
