@CarribeanBeachbum06 Because your take on the world is shallow and misinformed.

@CarribeanBeachbum06 Excuse me? Coalition forces haven't killed thousands of civilians? The number's approaching 1.2 million, while your head is in the sand.

And your rationale is.....they're Muslim, so they chose evil, and deserve their schools bombed?

When you get over your ignorance and racism, try visiting the Middle East. Just once. It's clear you never have, and have no clue other than some Fox-news blurbs to form your 'opinion'.

Do you think I said that? Where did you read that? LMFAO! Crack never hurt nobody eh?

I'll ask this slowly for you: Have you ever heard of Mossedegh? Probably not.

[CarribeanBeachbum06]

So you feel the current Iranian leadership is.....democratic?! LOL Ok. Who held civilians for over a year? Who sponsors those who target women and children all through the M.E.? Who kills their own on the streets? Axis of Evil, um yeah, it applies.

[CarribeanBeachbum06]

False statement. Coalition soldiers NEVER killed tens of thousands of Iraqis, but their own have made a "choice" to do so! They are free to "choose" good or evil, much like women in the USA responsible for "choosing" to kill 14 million babies.

The straw thing is old. If my comments apply, comment. I mention experiences with Liberals so some may be you and some may not.

What Kucinich, Ron Paul and I say is not that Iran SHOULD own nuclear weapons but that their decision is rational since we included them without good reason in the axis of evil, invaded a country right on their door step and then immediately threatened them with war. We overthrew the only democratic leader they ever had and propped up the brutal Shah! Bush's desire to pre-emptively eliminate one FALSE nuclear threat accelerated Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons, as a deterrent to us.

You don't even know history do you?

[mongoose704]

And I could say your way of thinking was to kill tens of thousands of innocent civilians and 5000 americans on false charges all for the agenda of American hegemony over the ME and its oil...

but I won't stoop to your pathetic level.

Stop talking to straw man, Talk to me.
