I don't live in the US.
What's this garbage about telling people where they can live?
Do you think Ireland sucks?
Seems as if some of us can see our countries without blinders on or jingoistic flags waving all around.
Blind patriotism is not a gift to any country.
Apparently you like to make things up about posters who find fault with illegal and immoral actions that you don't agree with.
Twice you've looked silly with your comments about posters.
I wasn't demanding, I asked why you didn't.
If asking a person who believes in flaunting the Geneva Conventions a question becomes a demand, I see no reason to continue discourse with you.
Sorry about your brother, but if you enjoy being a warmonger, isn't supporting the military a life you would cherish?
You seem to enjoy ranting on and on in support of crimes taken by the side you agree with against the dead. I guess desecrating a corpse is a good thing to you.

Perhaps I was sleeping, or maybe because I don't spend my entire life on line supporting bad decisions in bad wars.
I live in a different time zone and am on holiday in yet another.
No need to respond, I won't be reading it.

That's funny you say that. The common reaction was laughing, though some wouldn't admit to it in such a thread and to a bunch of civilians.
So, getting shot at by Stingers that we gave them when they were fighting the Russians in the 80s doesn't count? I'll buy that for a dollar. The only people who I trust is US. Thank you very much!
I'm not talking about the actions taken by others, but by those taken by US military members in our little incursion into the middle east.
Quit comparing apples and oranges.
Deflection does not make for debate.
We are the aggressors here. We attacked their country.

Why, I can't be against war and bad behavior from our government (and military members are part of the government) and live in the US?
I'm a US citizen with strong anti-war, anti-violence leanings.
And I'm vocal about it.

There are millions of us.
It sorta lets you off the hook. I guess, I'm not so shocked or supprized at what you are posting, is what I'm saying.
Hopefully we will keep them from coming back here again. I don't think we give a rip about them. We just want to make sure they don't come back.
With behavior like this and Gitmo and Abu Graib, etc. etc. we continue to make more enemies.
It's our behaviors at this time that are our biggest problem.
Get out of their countries, we're not welcome.

That's funny you say that. I see it as scaring the crap out of everyone who wishes us harm or wants us all dead. We can get VERY nasty if we have to! Your worst nightmare! Don't make us do it! That goes for the guys who are actually out "humping it" in the field and pulling triggers. The people who make the rules and write the books don't know anything about it. Only where the bags go when they come home.
