This Country Beats France

Extras from Michael Moore's "Sicko". Does France really have the best health care system in the world? If you thought the Canadian and British systems made the U.S. look bad, brace yourself. In thi...

It's not about "appeasing terrorists" ADEAL, it's about creating a more sustainable a just world. If they world followed your lead, and it is, you have perpetual war. Only the rich benefit from that.

According to John Pilger, one of the most acclaimed journalists of all time, "More than 24,000 children die every day from the effects of poverty."

According to Steve Sternberg from U.S.A. Today (05/22/2002), "More than 18,000 adults in the U.S.A. die each year because they are uninsured and can't get proper health care."

So why isn't ADEAL918 hot and bothered about poverty and a lack of health care? NO terrorists have EVER killed THAT many people!

Now, ADEAL918 will claim -- in the name of EXCUSING Human rights violations -- that the reason the odds of there being a terrorist attack are so low is because fascists like AmeriKKKa and Israel are allowed to torture. Well, even IF that was the case, NO one needs to feel safe that damn bad!
But the FACT is, the odds are that low because terrorism is overrated. In contrast, an UNDERrated threat like poverty kills tens of thousands DAILY. Where's the vehement passion about THAT threat??

"Even if terrorists were able to pull off one attack per year on the scale of the 9/11 atrocity, that would mean your one-year risk would be one in 100,000 and your lifetime risk would be about one in 1300. (300,000,000 ÷ 3,000 = 100,000 ÷ 78 years = 1282) In other words, your risk of dying in a plausible terrorist attack is much lower than your risk of dying in a car accident, by walking across the street, by drowning, in a fire, by falling, or by being murdered."

Michael Rothschild, a former business professor at the University of Wisconsin, worked out a couple of plausible scenarios ... If terrorists were to destroy entirely one of America's 40,000 shopping malls per week, your chances of being there at the wrong time would be about one in one million or more. Rothschild also estimated that if terrorists hijacked and crashed one of America's 18,000 commercial flights per week that your chance of being on the crashed plane would be one in 135,000.

"In Tuesday's Republican presidential primary debate, Fox News moderator Brit Hume — who appears to have been watching too much '24' himself — raised what he described as 'a fictional but we think plausible scenario involving terrorism and the response to it.' He then laid out the kind of 'ticking-bomb' scenario on which virtually every episode of '24' is premised — precisely the kind that most intelligence experts consider fictional and entirely implausible."

"all non-lethal weapons do is leave terrorists alive to slaughter even more"

NO, asshole. What it does is allows them to be imprisoned and stand trial.

Despite your swims in Denial River, you are in fact bloodthirsty. You don't want terrorism stopped, you want the terrorist to SUFFER. Deny it all you want, but you want REVENGE, which makes you UNqualified to fight terror.

There are over three thousand comments on this board -- and if anyone actually had the time to read each and every last one of them, that someone would clearly see I've beaten ADEAL918 into the fucking ground (unless, of course, that someone watches FOX).

"will continue to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to stop these psychopaths"

Like FOX News, you exist to let the powerful off the hook. The Bush administration can commit every Human rights violation in the book and yo' dumb ass will CLAIM it saves lives. Why? Because doing so makes YOU feel safe! How petty! How selfish! How short sighted!

"victimhood culture, entitlement because of oppression of their ancestors"

It's clear that you have absolutely NO respect for black people and what they've been through. Abner Louima was RAPED with a wooden stick by the New York police, for God's sake, and you're STILL doing to dismiss oppression as victimhood culture??

You are sooo lucky we're not face-to-face ... Maybe after YOUR ass has a wooden stick shoved up it, maybe then you'll learn some compassion ...
