1. Preemptive War is Murder: Plain and simple. America used to be a country that only went to war as a last resort to defend itself. Now war is used as a hammer to occupy new territory at the whims of bloodthirsty chicken hawks.

I wonder how many bootlickers are willing to defend this simply because Obama is in office but would rabidly protest if it was the policy of a different political party...

Many. The other day I called an aunt of mine to discuss the possibility of war with Syria, and while she did admit that it was a dumb idea, she didn't admit to whom it was perpetuating war with Syria but on the other hand when Bush started his pointless wars she put all the blame on him.

I hold certain liberal beliefs, and I do not support this war.

I think it is only two one big reason. Warrior in Syria is primarily a transit pipelines for pumping crude oil from Iraq and Saudi Arabia to the Mediterranean coast (Kirkuk - Tripoli, Kirkuk - Banias, Ab-Kaikeyi - Side). Although without existing oil and gas potential in Syria has "a lot to steal" in addition to geographic location. So in the last two or three decades in Syria discovered new deposits of oil, iron ore, phosphates, natural asphalt, rock salt, etc. The second is the U.S. budget deficit is $ 427 billion is why the U.S. would support any domestic or international conflicts . "To-war, and who the mother is native" The U.S. government has always given people's lives for money and influence.

I don't support this war, it will be a nightmare.

I would quit reading that tin foil hatted conspiracy clog though, full of fear, gold hoarding, bunkers for the coming collapse, and guns for when the black helicopters come to take you away to a FEMA camp. If some homeless raving psychotic that's crapped their pants says the sky is blue, and it turns out it is blue, that doesn't mean they are a great place to get political and economic commentary.

This is becoming a proxy war with powerful countries backing one side or another.
I believe there will be boots on the ground sooner than we think.

Some of that tin foil has turned out to be true.
The NSA listening in and gathering all your phone/internet data is one of them.
Folks called them paranoid back then. They are saying "I told you so" today.

Hopefully it's the boots of the politicians who think this is a good idea. If they really believe it's a good course of action, let them go over there and die for their cause. Oh that's right, that what the little people are for. Bullet sponges for their pet projects.

I've heard this before, but where did it come out from tin foil conspiracy theorists before the regular news?

I've asked for proof before, and the only things I get in response is certainly not proof, but...

1) I am a paid shill for disinformation, and no evidence like a paycheck or something.
2) I have been brainwashed not to accept their claims without evidence by chemtrails
3) They don't need to provide proof of their claims because if they do the government will murder them. How the government is so powerful that it can get away without repercussion in murdering celebrities, and not people living on the streets and raving on forums eludes reality.
4) Only morons require things like evidence. The poster didn't like that by that logic people could be convicted of being a pedo without evidence of molesting a child, including them.

The conversations are usually pretty short on their end as libraries have time limits for their public computer use.
