Casper, are you not an American? Shouldn't your priority be to this country FIRST? Again, I'm more concerned about what is happening here, than over there! If you're so concerned, and fear the Middle East so much why don't you and the rest of your "status quo" friends grab your guns, and charge off into battle! King???? Ha that's funny, unlike you and the rest of your big government loving friends, I don't desire to control all aspects of other people's or nation's lives!

We love the Russians, because they say we do.





Hypocrite, much?

What do you mean, "We are doing no such thing"

We have and are doing exactly that.
Why be a hypocrite?


What nations army attacked us?


It is no different than I flying a plane into the Chinese parliament and China sending in their troops to take over our nation and remove our government from power and replacing it with their chosen puppet leader.
I trained here.


Crisis crony capitalism

I already did my duty, as did my father before me and my son after me and probably my grandsons after him. You should be thankful for families such as mine that are willing to put their own lives on the line and serve this Nation so you can live free in the America we both love.

How sad.

I love this country but I am not a hypocrite. We have done a lot of bad things around the world. We are not saints. Look what we did in Iraq. No wonder they resent us. Look at what we did in Iran for God's sake.

This whole idea that everything we do is morally right because we are the ones doing it needs to go away.

Can you imagine if someone said he didn't like you and was planing on getting some guns and in turn you killed that person? Would that be justifiable? Apparently it is when we talk about preemptive strikes.

You would be behind bars if you were to do such a thing.

I am sick of all of this war talk. We poke people in the eye and expect them not to hate us. Talk about naive.

OK fine, but why do you think we need to force our policies on other countries, especially those who don't want it? Would you like it if another country came over here and did it to us? Oh but wait, we're the United States, we can do no wrong! I have no issue with defending my country, and will do so if need be, IF our country is threatened by invasion from another foreign country! Look after 911 I understood going into Afghanistan. Then, what do we do? Switch gears and go after Iraq because "oh noes theys got weapons of mass destruction!" By the way, did we ever find them? Now we're about ready to go after Iran, because "oh noes, they might get a nuke!" I'm pretty sure Iran realizes that were they to detonate one nuke on our soil, IF they even get to that point of that capability it will mean their instant destruction! But let's keep pressing on, and start WWIII, because that is what is going to happen. Do you think China, and Russia are going to sit back and allow us to invade Iran without doing anything? Are you prepared to take on those two as well? Because let me tell ya, China, and Russia ain't Iraq or Afghanistan!

Finally, the Communists didn't take over in the Vietnam era, and the Iranians are NOT going to invade us in this era! However; if we keep meddling over there trying to nation build and force our policy on people who don't want it, then it is going to be our demise!

You have proof it was Afghanistan military at the controls on 9-11-01???

It is not adding up in the fear mongering for war.

You didn't serve this nation, you were told and demanded to policed other nations to conform to what the UN thinks is right in their corporate greed, not so I can live free in America.
My dad who is a retired AirForce Major, told me as a kid, if I want to defend this nation, to enlist in the Coast Guard, or be sent to fight someone else's war.
