Dixie Matters: The Wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, etc

[Chad435]

Thanks for your interviews... I agree most people won't stop playing taxes... they have to have backbones of steel because the IRS will make your life a living hell if you don't pay tribute to them

[Musketnpistol]

LOL wow so the WTC towers collapsed for NO REASON LOL I dont know where that IDIOT is from but that has got to be the DUMBEST comment ever!!! And while we are at it WHY cant you just fly aplane into the Pentagon Do you mean because of its defenses? Or its size? If so I suggest you take a look at Jap kamikazies flying into destroyers during WW2 They are a LOT smaller and have a HELL of a lot MORE firepower!!

[Luigi84289]

they were bombed. Anybody who was there and saw it knows and can't get a second of airtime. Science doesn't lie. The way they fell is a textbook demolition. Jet Fuel doesn't burn hot enough and they were constructed to withstand just what happened on 9/11. I know the feds are evil so it's easy for me to accept the scientific facts not easy for some. Thermate was used to melt the beams, that's why the fell straight down and didn't fall at a downward angle like they would have if the planes did it

[ninpo2006]

I don't choose to pay taxes that fund the wars. The taxes are stolen from me.

[RiverBirch1967]

I agree about taxes. That money is MINE.

God bless Dixie!

[Blackjack555]

Debra Medina for Texas!

[RiverBirch1967]

No one can win a war hands-tied. We either have to go in with force and run them over, or get out. It is turning into another Vietnam. No matter what a person feels about the war itself, ceasing or increasing, the US govt needs to do *something* one way or the other.

[RedShirtArmy]

What the US govt needs to do is disappear. It's a force of evil in the world - especially in Dixie, River.

[RiverBirch1967]

I do not believe the govt is evil, Michael. I believe it is misguided overseas. I am not saying I support what the govt does, just that the govt has to do *something* right now over there other than sit around and wait to be shot at. We did *something* during WW2 and we won. We have to move one way or another and not sit at the chessboard so long. I was not referring to Dixie at all.

[RiverBirch1967]

If you re-read what I said, I was referring specifically to Afghanistan and Iraq..... and said we either have to leave or fight. So being "evil" has nothing to do with it. I am talking about something like chess, you either move or you walk away.

[TheFeralFury]

@RedShirtArmy You mighty right !!

[vmpslr2]

2 reasons i can think of the war is being fought 1.the heroin trade,an domination of the drugs from there,all the commercials you see on television is selling drugs to retired people,2.the research an application of new war technology by the us military industrial complex

[cowboy4ev2]

I love the South. They were right to secede and hopefully they do it again someday. Having said that, I think it's my duty to at the very least point out that the South is by and large pro-War (historically speaking too: They were called the "War Hawks" dating from 1812). The League of the South is way out of step with traditional Southern values on this point (not any of the other ones that I can see though). Btw We as Southerner's believe that we were attacked by jihad warriors, not criminals.

[yakir27127]

It's not pro-war; it's pro-liberty. There's a difference. The South would not have appreciated these wars in the Middle East.

[cowboy4ev2]

Let's not look at hypothetical, let's examine facts. The South overwhelmingly supported the war compared to the North. It was a Southern president (granted he was born in New England...but he grew up in Texas) elected by Southern people that got us into the War. And thank God that we are in it! I'd rather fight em' over there than here!

[RedShirtArmy]

The whole 'fight em over there rather than here' thing is a false paradigm. It's what the Feds are doing over that that is causing blow back. It's the foreign policy that needs to change. They don't hate us b/c we are free - they hate us because of what the Feds do in their lands. Getting US soldiers out of the Middle East, stopping propping up dictators there, staying out of the Israel vs Arab struggle, etc is the path forward. The best foreign policy is what G. Washington advised.

[cowboy4ev2]

They hate us because we don't bow the knee to Allah. There's a misunderstanding on the right, left, and libertarian sides of the political discourse. This is a religious war.

[RiverBirch1967]

I agree with cowboy on this. Religious and political ties there are the same in most counts, but it is religious purely. I stated below a book reference.

[RiverBirch1967]

I am reading a book by a former terrorist turned Christian. He said the hatred comes from purely religious beliefs, and NOT what we do over there. They would hate us regardless because Jihad teaches them to dislike our "immoral" ways and that anyone not muslim should die.

[cowboy4ev2]

I highly suggest anyone who thinks they hate us because we're "over there" read the politically incorrect guide to Islam (or simply the Koran itself if you can stomach it). It's unfortunate to see so many buying into multiculturalism on this point.

[MSfeller]

I'm as conservative as you are, sir, perhaps in a different way. I do agree with the multiculturalism being bought by the American people, and it is an illness that affects this nation today. However, our government, the media and a lot of people are very hypocritical about it. Because the Jewish book, Talmud, or whatever they call, says a lot of horrible things about Christians. Yet, for some reason, our government supports Israel. Why? What do we own them? Am I antisemitic? No, I'm an American

[cowboy4ev2]

The nation of Israel is not governed by the Talmud in the same way that the Islamic nations are govern by the Sharia. Also, different sects of Judaism value the Talmud to different degrees. It's not a hard-fast religious book like the Koran or Bible. It's just commentary. I'd be curious to know what specifically is anti-Christian in it, not that it would change anything...but just curious.

[MSfeller]

The nation of Israel is a theocratic nation, it is governed by Jews and it has a Jewish agenda. There's no separation of church and state like in America, Many Christians live there and are discriminated, along with Muslims as well. I think it's funny for them to preach tolerance when they tolerate no others but themselves there. Google "Christians in Jerusalem want Jews to stop spitting on them". About of what is anti-Christian about it, google it and you will find a lot of discrepancies.

[RoarNoMore]

It's not Theocratic? What are you talking about?

[yakir27127]

I'm talking about the fact that you're ignorant. You don't understand the Jews, Judaism, or Israel. You're talking about Zionists, not religious Jews. You should research the article Religious v. Secular: A Mideast Spectacle of a Different Kind.

[MSfeller]

I don't have a problem with them being anti-Christians, because in a sense, every religion thinks that they are right. There's anti-Jewish things on the Bible as well. Everybody is free to be "anti" whatever the hell they want. What I got a problem with is for Israel to use the US as puppets, in a war that THEY SHOULD fight, because thanks to US, THEY HAVE the technology and military capability to defend themselves. I'm tired of Southern boys dying for a cause that isn't theirs at all!!! Simple.

[RoarNoMore]

Which war specifically are you talking about?

[yakir27127]

You're right: Israel is NOT governed by the Talmud. The religious Jews do not have the power there; it is left-wing secular fools who have the power. You don't understand the Jewish religion, including the role of and the contents of the Talmud.

[yakir27127]

Your comment about the Talmud is ridiculous. Religious Jews do not want to go around killing Christians. You ARE a Jew-hater because you pretend that religious Jews want to go around killing Christians when you know nothing about the Jewish religion.

[yakir27127]

Get your head out of the manure, cowboy. Nobody here buys into multiculturalism. Rather, the problem is that people like you buy into this war on terrrrr.

[RoarNoMore]

Oh really? Then why do people from the Muslim nations hate us?

[MSfeller]

Yes, RiverBirch, well put. I do believe that if we are not there, they will still hate us all. But here's the thing, since they're gonna hate us anyways, might as well get out of their stinky country. If they are a real threat, which they are anyways, but like a real, real threat, then we should step in. However, I'm tired of America doing all the work basically alone, while the damn European countries issue letters condemning their behavior, instead of more troops to aid us. It's a mess.

[yakir27127]

You silly misinformed individual, George W. is Yankee indoctrinated through and through. He is not a Confederate, and he is not Southern in his beliefs. What has become of the South and of many Southerners is NOT Southern, but Yankee in origin.

[cowboy4ev2]

I referenced the war of 1812...the South has been this way for a long time, and overwhelmingly we support the war compared to the rest of the nation. To support your argument you would have to assume that there are more Yankees (by a huge margin) in Dixie than Southerners which is obviously not the case.

[yakir27127]

Wrong again. Once again you speak nonsense. Though the South is traditionally conservative, the Yankees have hijacked conservatism in what is called 'neo-conservativism'. They have infiltrated conservatism so that it is now infected. The Yankees of the North, however, tend to be left wing.

[cowboy4ev2]

I agree with you to some extent. The Yankee mythmakers are still inculcating Southern children with reconstruction era lies, but if you're saying that the Yankees have somehow changed the Southern view of foreign policy you're very mistaken. The South has, from the first years of the nations history, been the quickest to go to war, and the northeast has always been hesitant.

[yakir27127]

That's not true. You can't tell a Southerner, 'Send your son to die for oil, drugs, and the military-industrial complex'. The only condition upon which the traditional Southron is willing to go to war is in the name of self-defense. Thus, they must at least believe - for right or for wrong - that the cause is liberty. E.g. this war in the Middle East has been sold as a war for liberty. But if people did their research, they'd realise that it's a major fraud. Indeed, 9/11 was an inside job.

[cowboy4ev2]

Then their exists two possibilities.

1. The South is composed of a bunch of gullible hicks who believe lies.

2. The War is actually for self defense, and the South is right to support it even though the Northeast and Left Coast hates it.

I choose to believe the second possibility. By the way, I'd love to hear the quote I'm sure you have to support your thesis that the South was told to send their boys to die for "oil, drugs, and the military-industrial complex."

[americaneagle1967]

cowboy

explain gullible hicks for me please?

also explain why the northeast and west hates the South

[cowboy4ev2]

Gullible hicks- IE the south bought into a war based on lies which are obvious to the liberals and libertarians that inhabit this discussion post. I've been accused of being dumb...etc., but if that's true than the whole south is dumb right along with me.

The Northeast and West hate the war was the point I was making, not the South (I mean they do kind of hate the South, but that's a topic for another day).

[americaneagle1967]

cowboy

I will agree that Northerners and Southerners disagree on how the

country should be ran..But calling

people of the South "Hicks" is wrong..

I can find dumbass's in all 50 states and in every country

[cowboy4ev2]

That was my point to yakir27127. The South is not ignorant, they are smart. The Northeast and West are the ignorant. You should look at what I was responding to, then my comments will make more sense.

[americaneagle1967]

cowboy

I wasnt picking on you..just read a few of the post

[americaneagle1967]

cowboy

Liberals and Libertarians are total opposites as well

[cowboy4ev2]

not on foreign policy

[americaneagle1967]

cowboy

I would say that the south is more patriotic than the west and northeast

not that the south is more pro war

[thinkladythink]

yakir27127-Bingo-the History Channel did a show about George W,& apparently he's screwed up almost everything he's ever touched,& there are video here on YT about a business deal between Bush jr & Bin Ladden I think it was in the 80's about a buisness partnership that went belly up, also Bin L's family was in the White House the week of the 9/11 & Bush jr helped to fly them out of our Country-Why weren't they detained? Bush jr interfeared with the Military & Scientist during his term..

[thinkladythink]

yakir27127 ..I think Bush jr would never understand Southern ideas or value, He is a misinformed individual .. that is more Yankee Minded if not in a class all to himself .. although we did discover Voting machine problems exist with his election..

[Luigi84289]

He is from connecticut, 100% Yankee.

[yakir27127]

Furthermore, 9/11 was an inside job. The lie is being exposed to more and more people each day. With the internet at your disposal, there is no excuse for your ignorance about 9/11.

[cowboy4ev2]

I've seen it all. The DVD documentaries, the videos, the whole gamut. It's embarrassing that some people with big imaginations are able to take advantage of so many. People are ignorant of basic physics which is why they are susceptible (and they want to believe it was the feds).

[yakir27127]

Um, it's the other way around, buddy. E.g. explain the nanothermite (among a hundred other articles of evidence). Go on. Show everyone just how much of an ignoramus you are.

[TheFeralFury]

@yakir27127 .....I am a truther too. Keep up the good work.

[TheFeralFury]

@cowboy4ev2 Good morning sir. I invite you at your earliest convenience to check out this site " La voz de aztlan". I regret to inform you that they are already over here,and We will have to fight them over here too.

[RedShirtArmy]

Please speak for yourself. I do not believe that. I have opposed these pointless wars from the very beginning. Many of my friends and family have as well. I think what happened on 9/11 was blowback from half a century of terrible foreign policy by the Feds (which needs to be changed).

[MSfeller]

I say we let them take care of themselves in the Middle East. Listen, I'm a conservative, but besides of being a Southern Nationalist, I'm a human being. I don't see the need to send our Southern boys, or any boys for that matter to "rescue" people who don't even like us, to die for them, or liberals back home. I mean, what are we even doing there? Let the local authorities do their job, in their own country, and bring our boys home. To hell with 'em. And what a surprise, that Obama lied. Yep.

[RiverBirch1967]

I agree with MSfeller.

[RoarNoMore]

I think the founding fathers would have fought the war on terror in much the same ways Jefferson fought the Barbary pirates. They would have torched the place. It would have been quick and devastating. I'm all for the wars because I believe them to be defensive, but I don't endorse the way they've been managed.

[yakir27127]

The Founding Fathers would not have bombed their own building and blamed it on the Arabs. Don't you know that a building cannot collapse at free fall speed but by planned demolition? Do you even know how many buildings collapsed on 9/11? Most people don't because most people are brain dead TV heads. Do some research. Watch Loose Change, Final Cut. There are a lot of resources available.

[cowboy4ev2]

I don't believe in the 911 "truthers" theories because they don't make any sense. I've already told you I've spent hours looking over their material. Popular Mechanics has put together an excellent response which blows the theory out of the water. If you're interested in hearing the other side I'll send it to you.

[yakir27127]

Once again, you have refused to addressed the singular issue of nanothermite. I don't know if it's because you're an idiot, an ignoramus, or both.

Popular Mechanics was taken over and the whole staff was replaced. The CIA talks to them directly and has duped them into thinking that they have 'inside information', when in fact they are being fed bullshit. Read The Hidden Hand Of The CIA,

911 And Popular Mechanics

Do some more research, cowboy. You might be a little slow, but you can make it.

[yakir27127]

Furthermore, it's no singular 'theory'. It's an overwhelming pile of evidence. The only stupid conspiracy theory here is that CIA asset bin Laden - whose 'video confession' was obviously done by an actor who looks nothing like him - did 9/11. You have to be either an idiot or extremely uninformed to think that a building can collapse at free fall speed for no reason, or that you can just fly a plane into the Pentagon. There are not plane parts or bodies at any of the alleged crash sites. Etc.

[cowboy4ev2]

Talking down to people isn't going to recruit members to the ranks of your hypothesis. I'm less inclined to consider what you have to say now because you've personally insulted me. A little humility goes a long ways.

[TheFeralFury]

@MSfeller .......Can't argue with that.

[7rightnow]

Great Job

[USA7557]

good video,and ya know the thing is its a horrible war as of now,the rules of engagement are to fire only when fired upon,how are we to end a war with such rules,and plus most of the al queada are now in pakistan and other areas,only a small handfull of roughly 100 al queada are said to be occupying the country,then why send 30,000 more troops? there must be another motive

[jmelkis]

Thanks for speaking up about this.

[IndividualAutonomy]

I can't explain it very well, but your southerness is too cool.

[RedShirtArmy]

lol Thanks most kindly!

[KhmerD0g]

we should just go in and get Osama bin Laden whether the Taliban approved it or not. we have bigger guns. if they try to interfere we will shoot at them. there is no way the Taliban can stop us. had we done that, Osama bin Laden would be in our custody or dead by now. but no we have to nation building Afghanistan and democratize Iraq.

we tried that in Vietnam and failed. Vietnam is stable today. they're rebuilding their country. there was no domino effect of communism in Southeast Asia as fear.

[RedShirtArmy]

Hope y'all enjoy the video!
