You really have no clue. By now you should have worked out that randomly throwing mud at me will in the end destroy what remaining shreds of credibility you have amongst the few who still bother to read anything you post. Ed Brown[^]
Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.
From the article:
_Ed Brown speaks for the first time since his arrest and relates how he was gassed by noxious fumes for three days in a detention center..._:laugh: Gassed by what? His cell-mate's noxious farts? Puhleeeese... :rolleyes: -
Only if you use terrorism to do so.
Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.
Look, pal, you don't get to say "oh, there is absolutely nothing we can do about terrorism"(my original premise) and "you cannot use terrorism to fight terrorism" (which I never actually suggested). If you don't have a solution to the problem of international terrorism, than shut the fuck up and go away, we will do as we please. If terrorism against someone else is the best means of defeating terrorism against you, than that is what you do. If it isn't than you do something else. And too bad if that offends someone's moral sensibilities.
The only conspiracies that concern me are the ones I am completely unaware of. By the time I find out about it, its probably a done deal. Nothing in the entire universe is more useless than morality without authority. A morality free of hypocrisy is no morality at all.

So turkey wants to traipse merrily into Iraq to sort out a few issues 120+ people blown up in Pakistan after the return of a politician. Strange - but i don't hear much wailing and gnashing of teeth from the lefties (not referring to any CP members here) Can't quite fathom it. bryce

So who? US Democratic Representatives? Which ones have ever opposed Iraq on the basis of morals, i.e.,"it's wrong to invade another country". They are all opposing the US in Iraq for a variety of political reasons, and/or, regional repercussions, not moral reasons.

Check your atlas my friend. It is a country bordering Iran! One of the biggest issues of Turkey going into Kurdistan is that Kurdistan extends into Iran, risking getting the Iranians involved if the Kurdish fighters flee from the Turkish forces into Iranian Kurdistan. Then you may have something to complain about.

Whereas they do have trouble when it is applied to a country occupied by America.
I don't. If Turkey has a legitimate case that they are under attack from a neighbor, than they should be allowed to defend themselves. Obviously, that raises the possibility of a confrontation between Turk and US forces as the US would necessarily have to defend against a general invasion from Turkey, but as long as the objectives were narrowly defined, they should be allowed to do it. Frankly, I think there should be a new international law - any act of terrorism from the citizens of one nation against the citizens of another can be considered an act of war regardless of whether the government of the nation producing the terrorism was directly responsible for it or not. Further, all members of the UN would be required to participate militarily in the invasion of any nation producing terrorism. The excuse of 'stateless' terrorism should be made legally moot. If they are your citizens than you need to control them. Otherwise, the international community will. -- modified at 8:05 Friday 19th October, 2007

Is your suggestion assuming that no Americans in the future would never commit an act of terrorism in a foreign country and therefore we would never have to be concerned about being at war against the rest of the world as a result?

I didn't mention the WOT which is a political concept with no matching physical reality, unless you count the things it is used as a lame excuse for, and did not seek to define terrorism with anything other than a paraphrase of the dictionary definition, "The application of fear, generated by illegal killing, for the end purpose of applying politcal pressure to elected and legitimate authorities". If you don't like that definition you're at one with your leaders. The curent US adminstration has invested massive diplomatic efforts in gaining effective ownership of the definition of terrorism so that they can exclude their own activities as and when they see fit, while labelling anyone who disagrees with their policies a terrorist in defiance of logic and common sense. The president of Italy recently, following the same model, labelled me a terrorist because I do not support a single European state. Such usage risks eventually making the term meaningless.

I went back and re-read the OP and I still can't see that. What is it exactly?
The section of the left who would moan about the US going into Iraq and wrecking the place without UN authorisation but who won't complain when Turkey does likewise because the Turks are Muslem, or not seen as imperialist, or non-white, or whatever. In other words an unjustifyable double standard. If you scream about A doing it then you'd better scream just as loud when B does it or expect no one to take any notice of your initial complaint, is I think what he's getting at. Reasonable to extent that it's a fair comparison in the first place.

Yeah, and by "deprivation tank" he really means he can't go eat at that expensive French Bistro down the street anymore. Rather, he has to subsist on prison fare which causes his fat cell-mate to gas him with noxious post-prison-meal farts. What a joke.

I like how Bush doesn't think its in their best interest to handle the terrorists in their backyard yet stated that Israel had the right to defend itself. The rules kinda don't apply when it might directly impact our operations in Iraq.
This statement was never false.

I admit that I have great trouble understanding what you write because for wherever reason your writing style involves long run-on sentences that chain together disparate (and unsubstantiated) and seemingly random claims when obviously Guantanamo is the anti-Christ's throne in order to try and make a "point" which eludes not only me despite my aluminum foil helmet and also ignores the previous post in entirety such that the reader is left with a spaghetti-like mess of words much like George Bush's speeches which are controlled by Illuminati satellites in order to protect us from the truth that Ed Brown is being tortured in secret public torture prisons in Vermont's underground maple syrup factories and which occasionally use commas, instead of periods to separate thoughts that are probably co-mingled in your head which explains why you're so nuts and which renders me incapable of discerning what you are actually attempting but failing to say and thus making it look like I don't know how to read when in actuality I just don't know how to read "crazy".

OT but hey ho... I see that's it's not just reading you have a problem with but writing as well. At least that explains a portion of the nonsense you frequently post. Perhaps I should stick to responding with short sentences you can handle. Don't post rubbish. You're wrong and you know you are. Contradicting yourself won't persuade me. Call me crazy if it makes you feel better. I just feel I'd be insulting the intelligence of others who read this forum and can actually handle the occasional parenthetical comment.

Well at least you recognize that my blatantly obvious satirical immitation of your writing style is problematic. Now if only you could recognize that you suffer from severe delusions of persecution (which is admittedly something you won't be able to recognize without professional help)....What with the president of Italy calling you a terrorist and whatnot.

Absolutely. If we were producing gangs of international terrorists and could do nothing about them ourselves, it would be the responsibility of the international community to deal with it.

To accuse me of lies when I haven't actually said any of the things you seem to think I have is plain idiotic.
You said "See Ed Brown currently being held without access to lawyer and suffering solitary confinement, sensory deprivation and other forms of turture in the US, as a US citizen, for daring to refuse to obey an illegal tax demand". You did not say that Ed Brown "said" any of those things. You said that he is "being held without access to lawyer and suffering solitary confinement, sensory deprivation and other forms of turture in the US". That is plainly bearing false witness against the good men and women who run the prison that he will hopefully rot away in. That is, unless you can provide evidence of this fact. Can you provide evidence, you pathetic swine? You make so many unsubstantiated claims (i.e. bearing false witness) which I typically dismiss as irrational support of your delusions of persecution. But just for fun, I'll confront you on this particular one. Of course, I know that you'll just ignore my demands for evidence and instead go off on an unrelated tangent composed of innumerable run-on sentences.
