Topic: An attack on Iran would be criminal stupidity | |
---|---|
I couldnt help but laugh at these anti Putin comments and the absurd thought process that goes into something like that. Its as if americans have amnesia about our own misadventures. One doesnt have to major in history to do an honest comparison. the United States, officially a secular nation but predominantly Christian, attacked El Salvador (1980), Libya (1981), Sinai (1982), Lebanon (1982 1983), Egypt (1983), Grenada (1983), Honduras (1983), Chad (1983), Persian Gulf (1984), Libya (1986) , Bolivia (1986), Iran (1987), Persian Gulf (1987), Kuwait (1987), Iran (1988), Honduras (1988), Panama (1988), Libya (1989), Panama (1989), Colombia, Bolivia, and Peru (1989), Philippines (1989), Panama (1989-1990), Liberia (1990), Saudi Arabia (1990), Iraq (1991), Zaire (1991), Sierra Leone (1992), Somalia (1992), Bosnia-Herzegovina (1993 to present), Macedonia (1993), Haiti (1994), Macedonia (1994), Bosnia (1995), Liberia (1996), Central African Republic (1996), Albania (1997), Congo/Gabon (1997), Sierra Leon (1997), Cambodia (1997), Iraq (1998), Guinea/Bissau (1998), Kenya/Tanzania (1998 to 1999), Afghanistan/Sudan (1998), Liberia (1998), East Timor (1999), Serbia (1999), Sierra Leon (2000), Yemen (2000), East Timor (2000), Afghanistan (2001 to present), Yemen (2002), Philippines (2002) , Cote d'Ivoire (2002), Iraq (2003 to present), Liberia (2003), Georgia/Djibouti (2003), Haiti (2004), Georgia/Djibouti/Kenya/Ethiopia/Yemen/Eritrea War on Terror (2004), Pakistan drone attacks (2004 to present), Somalia (2007), South Ossetia/Georgia (2008), Syria (2008), Yemen (2009), Haiti (2010), etc. etc. etc. etc. So, who is the danger to world peace? http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/dangertopeace.php Hasany other country on this planet been involved in so much bloodshed? How can we even condem anyone at all? Hypocracy on a massive scale for sure. How much longre will the rest of the world put up with uber Umerika? "One doesnt have to major in history to do an honest comparison." HAHA England.. Russia.. France.. Germany.. China It would take us 1000 years to catch up to the number of people these five countries have killed.. Persia.. Greece.. The Roman Empire.. I guess they didn't kill anyone when they ruled the known world.. Thanks for the laugh.. Good way to start off the workday.. Do you want me to keep going, mr historian? No country in modern times has waged more unjust wars than the good old USA. Yeah.. well.. I clearly stated: England.. Russia.. France.. Germany.. China Persia.. Greece.. The Roman Empire.. and you said.. please provide some proof of your absurdity. Your uninformed comments do not impress me. I clearly proved my absurdity.. So now you want to move the goalpost.. Well .. Stalin killed at least 20 million and Mao 40 million.. Don't have to go back too far for that.. The Russians killed 130,000 during the two wars with Chechnya. They killed about 2 million in Afghanistan and wounded 3 million more mostly civilians. Germany France England started 2 world wars that killed 75 million.. So.. should we now just talk about last week? A case could be made for our internal policies as well, how many people have actualy died because they do not have healthcare? How many early deaths due to malnutrition? All valid points. Ill have to let you have the last word for now getting ready for the state wrestlin tournement in columbus tomorrow the kid actualy made it good luck to your son.. |

First, it is way past time for the United States to break their dependence on foreign oil. I applaud the higher gas prices; it makes efficiency all that much more urgent. Major breakthroughs have already been made in alternative sources for energy; solar and wind generation are ever increasing, and there's no going back from that level. Once we convert the power plants away from petroleums, our demand for oil will plummet.
Second, the idea that Russia is still a world power is completely laughable. Russia is not what the Soviet Union was; it is the emaciated leftover of a failed economic system that took but never gave. Russian soldiers work at dismantling tanks; fleets of submarines and jet planes sit rusting and useless. Russia isn't even a neighbor to Iran anymore; the smaller splinter countries that formed in the downfall of the Soviet Union are in the way. Third, the Cold War was the biggest, costliest mistake the United States and the Soviet Union ever made. The only innovation it sparked was weaponry, with every conflict we fought either directly or through proxies giving us the opportunity to field test those killing machines. The only justified military action is to support a stable government. Expansionist efforts are illegal, and have been, though both China and the Soviet Union have gotten away with land grabs in the past...and China will most likely continue to do so. Had the United States upheld their belief that a stable government was in their best interest, we would have allied with the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, not supported the rebels. We've been paying the price of that mistake ever since. In a world where the "major league teams" have nuclear weapons, there will always be nations that wish to ascend to that dangerous level. Like Pandora's Box, the secret of nuclear weaponry can never be put away, hidden from use; it is a reality, and one we need to have a good plan for succeeding in. I cannot see Israel going non-nuclear until the war over their presence ends. When the Middle East finally accepts that there are Jews living on their Holy Land, then Israel may start to accept that they don't need to be prepared to fight a war on every edge of their borders. In the meantime, we need to not only continue to vehemently discourage further weapon proliferation, we need to track down and disarm all the nuclear weaponry that the Soviet Union left behind in all those scattered silos in countries that are now not part of Mother Russia. I'm far more concerned about those weapons getting into the hands of evil persons than I am about Iran developing new weapons. Finally, Iran has been offered enriched Uranium for nuclear energy production...and they've refused. They don't want nuclear energy; they want nuclear weapons capability, and they know how to play the political game to stall the U.N. until it is too late. |

Well, like it was said in the movie Goodfellas, "Believe me, when we hit them, they know they are down." America needs to be a bit more tough. You get respect that way.
