well I really should read all the posts before I write anything,seems what I had to say had already been said & then some.
Some interesting opinions here & many subjects that are hard to discuss without the emotional & irrational taking over.(sometimes guilty of that myself).
One thing I did want to mention about the WW2 references ,where it is suggested that the axis would have dominated the world if not for US intervention.
This is (as most things are) a complicated issue,it is an easily verifiable fact that many US companies bankrolled the Nazis at the beginning of WW2.
( including the company that George.W.Bush senior's father Prescott Bush was chairman of) so initially the US economy profited from this war & as the power in the US is not so much with the people or even the government really but with those who own the banks,corporations & media outlets, may I suggest the possibility that the timing for America's intervention in WW2 may be more about profit & personal(family,NGO) power than any kind of humanitarian ideology(love of freedom etc). Just a thought.
PEACE Brothers & Sisters
sorry for the double post
@GRAPEVINE:'
Who done 911 at the WTC' how old are you, 5?
The people held at Gitmo are terrorist 'suspects' given no right to trail,tortured & for the most part not ever charged with a crime.Who & what constitutes a 'Terrorist' is based on undisclosed supposed 'intelligence' & not open to any scrutiny, making the way Gitmo is run nothing less than fascism.
Is this the price many innocent people have to pay so you can keep your ignorant illusion of freedom & democracy? While the country you live in engages in resource wars,carelessly killing many thousands of innocents just to maintain the flow of cheap oil & keep the dollar afloat.
Buddy you need to wake up & learn to think for yourself,maybe actually read a few books & stop watching Fox news.
BORN ON THE SAME BIG BEAUTIFUL BALL OF ROCK AS EVERYONE ELSE. PEACE
