Ahhh, so anything less than cutting off heads is "right"? The moral relativistic perspective you have endorsed is repugnant. Of course, this is what the right wing incessantly does, and practices. No matter what is said, the defense boils down to a moral relativism based fallacy defense. "We are not as bad as the terrorists, so we must be good....."
Good grief but that's WEAK!! Aw well, what to expect from a Lib with "hundreds of millions" of like-minded Americans in his corner? Have a nice Lefty day. Maybe a few more Americans will be killed in Iraq by an insurgency that gains confidence and is encouraged by Lib calls to withdraw and a conservative-hating national media. That oughta bring a smile to your face.
I see someone is using the "if America had no dissent, and expressed no dissent, the insurgency in Iraq would give up and go away" fallacy. Too funny.....
I see someone is using the "insurgents aren't emboldened at all by the Liberal movement and media, so American soldiers aren't at all put at greater risk" fallacy. Brilliant! Brilliant!
The entire world understands that americans are killed in Iraq because of Bush's and his supporters stupidity, ignorance and incompetence. But certainly you know better, americans are killed because insurgents read the NYT and because more and more americans recognize that Bush lied and that the occupation of Iraq has to end.
Geez, I thought we were at war. And according to the neocons, all along it was the New York Times inciting insurgents to kill Americans... Thousands of American soldiers maimed for nothing.
Don't forget, we also poured water over their heads. According to one US Senator, that's just like gassing millions of Jews, even though it was bottled water and not from a tap.
Isn't it just a wee bit curious that during the time the weapons inspectors and the world press were in Iraq prior to them being invaded by the US, there was no insurgency, not suicide bombings, no declarations by the Iraq people their desire to be invaded and have Saddam removed, etc.? Wouldn't that have been the right time, with the world attention on Iraq for the people of Iraq to show the world how much they actually hated Saddam and were trying to have him removed???
Yes, I am sure they loved him. After all, all opinion polls suggest that he enjoyed a 100% electorate victory.
Of course liberalism is a mental disorder.... Those with unreasonable feelings of guilt and lack of self worth are influenced to join the liberal movement by the propagandizing of broadcast tv, newspapers, schools, and universities. The liberal values they absorb give them a sense of self worth and the sense that they CAN do some good in the world.
