I would like to ask the resident warmonger (Silas777) on this board one question.

Have you ever been shot at by people trying their best to kill you?

Why are you so frightened of Muslims and Iranians that you would start a war?

Would you sign up and go fight in that war?

For the rest of you I suggest that you refrain from assuming all liberals are cowards for not wanting to go out and “Kick somebody’s a**”

For myself:

I was shot at about forty years ago in a swamp far, far away. More than once.

Why should we get involved in a nuclear pi**ing match over the fate of Israel. They are a country in their own right and, like the rest, can take care of themselves

I would like to ask the warmongers what they have done
other than cheerlead and paste yellow ribbons on stuff
to support what they talk about here, too ?
In another thread Burdell started about DDay I got to
thinking the sacrifices Americans made to support the war
effort. At the time, we were noble protectors, not violent
aggressors so that is different but, what sacrifies have people
who support this stuff, made ? I still see SUV's being bought
and driven by people who dont need them....4 wheelers being
ridden for recreation....NASCAR races still being run. etc...
Personally, I commute by bicycle, year 'round, use an old
fashion-non-motorized push mower to do my front yard, take
a part in an occasional Peace rally, and vote for non-war
candidates. In the war for oil, what are you personally doing
to lessen the human toll ?? Strangely enuff, I only see us
'liberal-cowards' making any sacrifices or caring about the
people who are dying.

Just to clarify, and I have to think you would agree, let's not take anything away from those who are doing the fighting, they volunteered and are doing what they promised to do. They deserve our support and gratitude, they can't be held responsible for the good/bad of the orders they follow.

Does anyone here who thinks that Iran is ready to pounce on us actually follow geo-politics or the politics of Iran?

What do you they think when they hear the crazy rhetoric of President Fredo and VP Dr. Strangelove?
insert cricket sounds here.


Yeeeah, that's what I thought.

And since this thread is about Iran, why haven' you mentioned that it was mostly Saudis that flew the planes into the WTC?

Go home liberal? Can't you do better? Why not break out the old pinko commie label? You'd put a smile on tailgunner Joe's ghost wherever he is
How is anti muslim being racist ? Do liberals like you now think muslim is now a race ? And I do think that LEFT WING LIBERALS ARE COMMIES... I have no agenda other than to point out how you left wing liberals are trying to destroy America.... And You defend anyone that wants to destroy it. And I don't care what country a muslim terrorist comes from, Iraq, Iran or home grown they are still muslim terrorist. And yes we do have terrorist born here too. You seem to can't take it that is muslims around the world trying to take over...

Do you really you can predict the beliefs and actions of 1.5 BILLION people by the actions of a radical few? When a Christian commits a terrorist act do you start calling for the eradication of all Christians? When a Jew commits a terrorist act do you call for the eradication of all Jews? Terrorism is the act of lunatics and they come from all faiths. There is upwards of 750,000 American systems who are muslims, you know, those you've said are mostly nuts? What would your plan be, internment camps? Other than personal bias what is your reason for a personal attack on that many Americans?

And as far as your "left wing liberals are trying to detroy America" and "Liberal go home" rants here are some FACTS:

I AM home, I'm NOT afraid to speak my mind when I think we can improve things, I'm NOT trying to destroy America, and when I decide to go some place it'll be because I decide to go and not due to some "America, Love It or Leave It" crapola.

Racism is defined broadly as stigmatization of those we perceive as different from us, I'd say by that definition your view of muslims certainly qualifies you as a racist.

"LEFT WING LIBERALS ARE COMMIES"? Did you learn that reading the drunken rants of Tailgunner Joe or come to that conclusoion independently?
