The hidden pictures of war

by strike-free.org Monday, Mar. 24, 2003 at 10:07 PM

Is this the freedom for iraqi citizens Bush means? Is this the honor for US soldiers to get killed for Bush?

The hidden pictures ...

go fuck yourself, commie

SORRY...BUT YOU LOOK LIKE CHARITY WORK!!

by Fed Up with the Right Wing Monday, Mar. 24, 2003 at 11:29 PM

Go fuck yourself? Wow...what a lady like comment. The best reply to that is: You look like you are charity work...yadda, yadda, yadda.......

Guess what? That IS what war looks like. Has CNN brain washed you to thinking it is just another video game? Or another form of Saturday night entertainment?

Well, guess what....you you had a good look at what King Georgie and Dickie Cheney don't want you to see. It's called the TRUTH.

Get a clue, you dumb Righ-Wing Broadi.

freedom!

by NAzcA Tuesday, Mar. 25, 2003 at 12:03 AM

well I guess ur not allowed to oppose war anymore , otherwise you would be called a 'sadam supporter.

Here are reasons why we shouldn't be in Iraq:

Think about the bombs being dropped over Baghdad...wouldn't this incite future terrorism instead of halting it altogether? What we are really doing is setting back peace negotiations in the middle east about 20 years, in my opinion. Additionally, you can't say any future terrorists would've come forward now--we're in Iraq right now, so anyone who's pissed off at us would have a good enough reason to act out against the United States.

I think anti-Americanism would catch fire by this military action in Iraq, as the countries in the Middle East are going to be less likely to comply with United States anti-terrorism strategies.

Contrary to some beliefs, Iraq has not been proven to be linked to the Al Qaeda or any other terrorists. Please remember the majority of the 9/11 terrorists were Saudis, not Iraqis; Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden strongly dislike one another. The United States GAVE Saddam Hussein weapons after we gave the Iranians weapons because they held a bunch of Americans captive--this juxtaposes how the United States also gave the Afghanis weapons to fight the Russians off and then later bombed Afghanistan, didn't rebuild any cities at all, and installed a president who's around like a groundhog on Groundhog Day.

I don't think going in there with a bunch of tanks and bombs is a civil way of going upon it. I'm not with Saddam Hussein or any terrorists; I'm not anti-American. I want peace negotiations and the way I see it bombing the fuck out of Iraq is going to set PEACE back 20 years or more, bring on more terrorist activity against the U.S., and the overturn of Saddam's regime and the installation of democracy will not last because the Iraqis have been suffering for a decade from the effects of UN sanctions and would be likely to suffer even more in ensuing chaos.

Imperialism is a cause that only brings upon more terrorism we have a "war" against; it is a case of Manifest Destiny. Imperialist actions in the Middle East aren't going to do anything but incite terrorism and anti-American sentiments. What is this, Germany 1933? The United States would not be justified, especially under UN codes, if we went over there and said "Hey, this is American land now, you're either with us or with Osama bin Laden/Saddam Hussein/terrorists," much like Bush's riding line, 'You're either with us, or with the terrorists.' I'm not a terrorist; I'm not with Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, or any other Islamic fundamentalistic group bent on terrorizing other people, and neither is anyone else on this website and many if its partners.

People aren't too different as to want peace for their country and their neighbors and friends. Warlike aggression is not a trait of the people; it is a trait of their leaders.

I'm NOT for putting a bunch of AWOL-war-avoidant oil barons in charge of monkeying around with foreign affairs. Bush, Cheney, Ashcroft, and Rumsfeld ALL avoided serving in the military. What do they know about the effects of war if they haven't been? Even Ronald Reagan didn't go to WWII because he had a great excuse: Hollywood. He wasn't too old--he was in his 30s in the 1940s.

We are NOT: Communists, anti-Americans, godless sodomists, corrupt evil liberals, et cetera. We are Americans, and we want truth and peace for the whole world.

electr o nixxa: so what do you think of the military strategy in iraq/

electr o nixxa: ack, i can't type

dyingdayofsummer: lol

electr o nixxa: cant they just make one key for EVERYTHING gahahh

dyingdayofsummer: hmm

dyingdayofsummer: i think the turks fucked shit up

electr o nixxa: the turks violated the UN

dyingdayofsummer: no shit

electr o nixxa: as did israel

electr o nixxa: and america

dyingdayofsummer: i say the US needs to get out of the UN

electr o nixxa: hmm

dyingdayofsummer: we dont pay our shit neways

dyingdayofsummer: or comply

dyingdayofsummer: so lets get out

electr o nixxa: yeah, well, that's true considering us being in iraq right now is illegal from the UN

dyingdayofsummer: yepp

electr o nixxa: but just consider the military strategy there now

dyingdayofsummer: what do u think of it

electr o nixxa: well, think about the bombs being dropped over baghdad...wouldn't this incite future terrorism instead of halting it altogether?

dyingdayofsummer: yeh

dyingdayofsummer: but

dyingdayofsummer: if terror was gonna happen

dyingdayofsummer: it wouldve happened by now

electr o nixxa: so, what we are really doing is setting back peace negotiations in the middle east about 20 years

electr o nixxa: and you can't say any future terrorists would've come forward now...i mean we're in iraq right now, so anyone who's pissed off

at us would have something against us

dyingdayofsummer: lol

dyingdayofsummer: hold on

electr o nixxa: also i think anti-americanism would catch fire by this military action in iraq

electr o nixxa: the countries in the middle east are going to be less likely to comply with u.s. anti terrorism strategies

dyingdayofsummer: brb

electr o nixxa: also iraq has not been proven to be linked to the al qaeda or any other terrorists...the majority of the 9/11 terrorists were saudis, not iraqis

electr o nixxa: sadddam hussein and osama bin laden hate each other's asses

dyingdayofsummer: yeh

dyingdayofsummer: but

dyingdayofsummer: the US and Russia hated each others asses

dyingdayofsummer: but when it came to germany....

electr o nixxa: of course the US and Russia hated one another

electr o nixxa: cos we gave the Afghanis weapons

electr o nixxa: not to mention all the cold war shit that went down

electr o nixxa: also, we GAVE saddam hussein weapons after we gave the iranians weapons because the iranians held a bunch of americans captive

dyingdayofsummer: no

dyingdayofsummer: look

dyingdayofsummer: 1942

dyingdayofsummer: russia hates US and Germany

dyingdayofsummer: US hates russia and german

electr o nixxa: no, YOU look, i'm talking about the middle east, not russia

dyingdayofsummer: US and Russia Ally

dyingdayofsummer: im simply giving an example as to two bodies that dont agree but agree on a common enemy

electr o nixxa: okay

dyingdayofsummer: such as hussein and bin laden

electr o nixxa: true, as i've implied

dyingdayofsummer: hah

dyingdayofsummer: i honestly just think we need to get saddam out

dyingdayofsummer: u see once we do this

dyingdayofsummer: other countires will follow

dyingdayofsummer: then the US will one day follow

dyingdayofsummer: and shed this fake democracy bullshit

electr o nixxa: hey, i agree, but i don't think going in there with a bunch of tanks and bombs is a civil way of going upon it. i'm not with

saddam hussein or any terrorists, i'm not anti-american or anything like that. i want peace negotiations and the way i see it is bombing

the fuck out of iraq is going to set PEACE back 20 years or more, bring on more terrorist activity against the united states and the overturn of

saddam's regime and the installation of democracy will not last because the iraqis have been suffering for a decade from the effects of UN sanctions

and would be likely to suffer even more in ensuing chaos

dyingdayofsummer: i dunno

dyingdayofsummer: im tired of this UN bullshit

dyingdayofsummer: we just need to drop it like a bad habbit

dyingdayofsummer: like when we dropped france in the league of nations

electr o nixxa: going about peace relations as a single country who has incited so much terrorism in the middle east is

completely impossible because we've gone over there, bombed the fuck out of them, didn't clean up and rebuild, etc and then installed

some president who's like a groundhog on groundhog day, only there for show

dyingdayofsummer: so i say

dyingdayofsummer: we bomb em and become imperialists

dyingdayofsummer: lol

dyingdayofsummer: so that way we have a cause

dyingdayofsummer: and claim the land as ours

electr o nixxa: a cause that only brings upon more terrorism we have a "war" against?

electr o nixxa: it sounds like a case of manifest destiny you're speaking of here.

dyingdayofsummer: yeh

dyingdayofsummer: i say we just start claiming land

dyingdayofsummer: kinda like the romans

dyingdayofsummer: either willingly surrender

dyingdayofsummer: or we take u down

electr o nixxa: alright, like the israelis are doing with the palestinian conflicts?

dyingdayofsummer: if u surrender you shall recieve all equal rights of romans

dyingdayofsummer: yepp

electr o nixxa: the roman policies are dated, however

electr o nixxa: and then the world wasn't completely colonized.

electr o nixxa: i don't think imperialist actions in the middle east is going to do anything but incite terrorism and anti-american sentiments. what is this, germany 1933?

dyingdayofsummer: yeh

dyingdayofsummer: well the world isnt exactlr ight now

dyingdayofsummer: yeh

dyingdayofsummer: it seems like it

electr o nixxa: so, you're saying you're all for going over to the middle east and taking over those countries as american land?

dyingdayofsummer: yeh

dyingdayofsummer: lol

electr o nixxa: why?

dyingdayofsummer: cause who gives a shit i mean this is all politics neways

electr o nixxa: apparently it's politics, but i'd like to know why you think the united states would be justified if we went over there and said

"hey, this is american land now, you're either with us or with osama bin laden/saddam hussein/terrorists".

dyingdayofsummer: we arent justified

dyingdayofsummer: thats the point

dyingdayofsummer: lol

electr o nixxa: and you must give a shit if you're talking to me about it.

dyingdayofsummer: i just like shooting the shit in politics

electr o nixxa: and how is that going to get anyone anywhere?

dyingdayofsummer: thats the pint

dyingdayofsummer: point

dyingdayofsummer: the world has gone to shit

dyingdayofsummer: we are at a point where as a whole

dyingdayofsummer: we cant progress nemore

dyingdayofsummer: we must digress

dyingdayofsummer: hey im all for it

dyingdayofsummer: lol

electr o nixxa: so you'd prefer to sit back and watch everything fall apart rather than to build it up into a world of peace?

electr o nixxa: without terrorism?

dyingdayofsummer: ok world peace

dyingdayofsummer: its never gonna happen

dyingdayofsummer: its like the idea of the glory of rome

dyingdayofsummer: it wont ever exist

dyingdayofsummer: people are different cultures are too different

electr o nixxa: right, especially if we keep bombing the fuck out of the middle east

dyingdayofsummer: humans are ignorant

dyingdayofsummer: its just a fact

electr o nixxa: people aren't too different as to want peace for their country and their neighbors and friends

dyingdayofsummer: after reading up on philosophers for debate

dyingdayofsummer: i have decided we wont ever have peace

electr o nixxa: and doesn't that scare you?

dyingdayofsummer: no

dyingdayofsummer: its just life

dyingdayofsummer: we are hear for specs of time

dyingdayofsummer: here

electr o nixxa: warlike aggression is not a trait of the people, it is a trait of their leaders.

dyingdayofsummer: naw all humans are truely evil

dyingdayofsummer: lol

dyingdayofsummer: we are only concerned about ourselves

electr o nixxa: i don't think such a statement has adequate information to back it up

dyingdayofsummer: ok the only truely nonselfish person was jesus

dyingdayofsummer: who we cant even proove existed

electr o nixxa: that's not true

electr o nixxa: what about mother teresa?

electr o nixxa: gandhi?

electr o nixxa: so many others who devote their lives to helping other people?

dyingdayofsummer: haha ghandi was a playa back in his day

electr o nixxa: that doesn't matter because it's irrelevant

dyingdayofsummer: lol i know

dyingdayofsummer: but ghandi was murdered

electr o nixxa: how is that a "but" statement?

dyingdayofsummer: the world cant have peace

dyingdayofsummer: the world doesnt want peace

dyingdayofsummer: it says it does

dyingdayofsummer: but it doesnt

dyingdayofsummer: well a band of hippies in San Fran do

dyingdayofsummer: but....

electr o nixxa: so, the world can't have peace because according to you, gandhi was murdered (true), everyone is evil and america has to own the whole world?

dyingdayofsummer: ok

dyingdayofsummer: one the world is too materialistic

dyingdayofsummer: its too selfish

electr o nixxa: no, the world is not

dyingdayofsummer: its sooo much easier to bitch then to work toward something

electr o nixxa: america is--look at it: corporations are EVERYWHERE

dyingdayofsummer: yepp

electr o nixxa: corporations dabble in politics, and even BUSINESSWEEK said big corporations should get out of politics

dyingdayofsummer: yeh

dyingdayofsummer: i agree whole heartedly

electr o nixxa: as do i. such a thing would lessen american materialism, in my opinion

electr o nixxa: it'd still be there of course but not as full-blown.

dyingdayofsummer: yepp

electr o nixxa: well, i for one am not going to sit back and watch the world become osama bin laden and saddam hussein's disneyland

dyingdayofsummer: lol

dyingdayofsummer: me either

dyingdayofsummer: karina u have some real good ideas

dyingdayofsummer: we should start a talk show on politics

electr o nixxa: what good is bitching about it doing? bitching about the current state does nothing whatsoever, in turn it only makes someone more miserable.

dyingdayofsummer: u are more left i am more right

dyingdayofsummer: it would be good times

electr o nixxa: what, like hannity and colmes?

dyingdayofsummer: yepp

dyingdayofsummer: manlove and leake

dyingdayofsummer: i bet we would piss alot of people off

electr o nixxa: the first guests could be bill o'reilly, rush limbaugh, mike savage, phyllis schlafly, tipper gore, al gore, bill clinton, bush sr and bush jr, jello biafra,

noam chomsky, michael moore, hillary clinton, tony blair, and so on and so forth

ABOUT BUSH ADMIRER

by Fed Up with the Right Wing Tuesday, Mar. 25, 2003 at 12:36 AM

Nazi Scum? Man, I would not put him THAT high on the food chain.

How do you know

by MGSolidSnake Tuesday, Mar. 25, 2003 at 2:51 AM

How the fuck do you know the US did this? from the looks of it, the second picture down on the left is from the video of the 4 US POWs that were killed today. That was Saddam's troops, not the US. So take your post and shove it.

nevermind

by MGSolidSnake Tuesday, Mar. 25, 2003 at 2:55 AM

nevermind my comment above

by Scottie Tuesday, Mar. 25, 2003 at 4:39 AM

Bush is just calling out those people who he thinks are on the wrong side.

If it happens that it is the whole of the arab world (which very few people seriously believe) and it gets very bad and the arab street ignites - Most likely their governments will tolerated them for a while and then masacare them.

The arab leaders (unlike their people) are fully aware that if they start a open holy war agaisnt all infidels that they will be humiliated on almost every battle field.

When they fight their own people, however, they have a long history of glorious victories.

Again there is a false comment on this board

frannyglass@attbi.com

I did not make the comment "Saddam is Right." That is not my position. I am not on Saddam's side or Bush's side I am opposed to this war just as I am opposed to all wars of aggression. I believe that peace is possible. Sorry for the confusion.

Go fuck yourself you fascist, warmongering pig. Go torture animals if you want a thrill. You are worst than Saddam, you don't even get it that this war is killing Americans too. Fuck off and die. Bush owns stock in Harken Energy, an fucking oil company. He is using American soldiers like pawns to get the oil. You are as bad as he is if you support the war. Look at the pictures. I hope you dream of them tonight pig.

No confusion here

by Pissed Off in Ohio Tuesday, Mar. 25, 2003 at 7:29 AM

The trolls are so obvious such explanations are generally unnecessary.

Oh now i see...

by Pissed Off in Ohio Tuesday, Mar. 25, 2003 at 7:33 AM

I see bush raper established some slander on the basis of your troll admirer's statements.

Fear not, he would have made similarly senseless slanderous remarks regardless of whatever you had or hadnot said. Don't even bother responding, its generally so mindless as to not even warrant the trouble.

Shame on you America!!!

Americans break all the rules. They go to war. Their soldiers get killed, they get seized by their enemies. Now, the americans mumble, they cry, they shout, they blame, violation of some conventions and shits like that.

Shame on you. War is war, there's no rule. Iraqi's got the full right to defend themselves. They wear military uniform or casual, they mingle among civillians or fight separate, they fight guerilla or regular, they use guns or they use slings, all they are supposed to do is shoot their enemy soldier's head, defend their country.

American make blunders, strikes civillians. They don't realize their mistake, they are ashamed, they cry, they shout, they blame iraqi's instead.

Soon, the american soldiers will brutalize innocent iraqis, they'll rape their wives and daughters, they'll crush their children, kill their husbands, they'll destroy the thousands year old city, they'll steal their oil. But The iraqi's won't cry, they won't shout, they won't mumble, they won't blame violations of this and that. Because iraqis will be mentally lamed by so called superior americans and their nuke bombs.

Shame on you Americans, shame on you!!!
