ErricoMalatesta 0 #28 February 4, 2009 QuoteYou dont get out in the real world much do you.. Ever hear of something called the COLD WAR?... It was kept cold by a hell of a lot of people who kept it from going hot... point.... counterpoint. That was learned from our inability to be left the fuck alone.. in our sad little isolationist world that a bunch of idiots in our government foisted on the USA after they decided to ponder their navels rather than engaging with the rest of the world when they took us away from the League of Nations . That led directly to the fascist regimes coming to power that were not so idealistic but very predatory on their own people as well as everyone around them. The world is not a nice place.. and idealism is a fucking stupid idea to form a foreign policy on..especially today with men like Osama... Mullah Omar... and about 10,000 other fucking mullahs and ayetollahs out there. Based on what they say.. I really do believe in engaging them.. preferably with the largest gun with the best sights we can get our hands on. Everything that comes out of your mouth is complete garbage. You know literally nothing about history or current events and you reduce everything back to your scared little world view that Muslims are out to get you. You are the stupidest person on this forum bar none and the irony is that you use the term GOAT FUCK STUPID all the time when you know nothing of the subject you are speaking on and the term in reality only applies to someone of your caliber.

The USA is hardly in a positiion to criticize on that account. We've used nukes, cruise missiles, surrogates to fight OUR wars (Bay of Pigs, Iran-Contra), cluster bombs, land mines, chemical warfare in 'Nam, overthrown legitimately elected governments (Iran 1953, Chile 1973), sponsored terrorists (Mujahadeen, Contras) and invaded other nations unprovoked (to state but a few items). What's your point. That you hate what the U.S. has done, so it's okay to allow everyone else to do it too? That makes no sense. If you don't like the U.S. meddling in other's affairs with aggression, then you should also oppose the same tactics when done by Iran. Which is it? Do you approve of Iran's aggression, or not? I disapprove of Iran's aggression, just as much as I disapprove of OUR aggression to pursue our goals. Criticizing Iran for doing what we have done far more of is hypocritical in the extreme.
