    You don't concern yourself with America. The only thing you need to be worried about is your buddies getting killed in the next war and islam going down the trash where it belongs. America will not pull out of Iraq, obama or hillery will not become president I can almost garentee it. People are sick of the shit that is happening and will certainly not elect a bitch or an islamic african who pretends to be of another religion. X|

    The Digital World. It is an amazing place in which we primitive humans interact. Our flesh made this synthetic machine. You see, we are so smart, we know a lot of stuff. We were grown from cells that came from the universe, which the matter and physics I'm typing in it is amazing how the universe is working. Human life is very amazing. How I experience this sh*t its like wow.

        Yea, verily. Although I'll vote for McCain, I fully expect Obama to be the next president. Apparently Bill Clinton and CSS disagree with me.

          But I bet, no matter how pissed off they get, they still won't strap a bomb on and blow someone up.

            Yep, but not very many of 'em are emigrating to Pakistan, are they? The number of Pakistanis trying to get into the US, on the other hand, seems to grow every year. Well, maybe the rest of Pakistan knows something you don't know.

                            How very disingenuous of you: if your lot would make peace and mean it and stop killing innocents you'll get left alone. Until that happens we'll keep at it.

                              That's because Indians as smart enough to recognize a good thing, while Pakis are too dumb to come here. Please press the switch soon.

                                Not sure what would happen if you critized Pervez Musharraf, even on this blog... In US we can be pissed at this and that and hang our laundry out to dry about it, with out fear of reprisal by the government.

                                      That is very naive. If you know that an enemy is about to pounce do you wait until they have done so when it may well be too late to do something about it or do you take pre-emptive action to ensure that it does not happen at all? One would hope it would be by negotiation but experience shows that negotiation is often seen as weakness and stops nothing. In the case of islamics extremists, for instance, even when they are offered everything they ask for that does not stop them from further terrorist acts. (Arafat was offered everything he asked for but still refused it, possibly showing that actually getting what they'd asked for was not the real goal). So if I have to get violent on your arse to get you to leave me alone: you're damned right I will. If you choose, mistakenly, to call that terrorism then so be it: I call it defence wheraes what the extremists do is terrorism because they will not negotiate: their one and only tactic is violence.

                                        I was talking about the Timothy McVeigh case. I felt that you were justifying it. If you feel that the policies and actions of a government / company/ religion is not in your interest, are you justified in using violence? It is terrorism to use violence instead of debate in civil society. If someone resorts to violence, law and order systems have to handle it - not an individual or a group. Since you brought up international affairs: Iraq was not any immediate serious threat to the US. Take away the war on Iraq, and you would not have ended up any worse. Don't give me the humanitarian aspect of removing a dictator and spreading democracy. I am still waiting for economic sanctions and wars on China, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan (although they ended up holding an election recently). There have been many dictators that the United States have worked with before.

Don't give me the humanitarian aspect of removing a dictator and spreading democracy. I am still waiting for economic sanctions and wars on China, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan (although they ended up holding an election recently). There have been many dictators that the United States have worked with before.

                                          A lot of cross purposes going on here! Doh! No, I don't attempt to justify any violence, it is abhorent but I recognise that it does have a place, however distastful, in our world and is used for all sorts of reasons, rightly and wrongly.

                                          That wasn't the point at the time: there was a perceived threat (even if that turned out to be not so true) and it was acted upon. And what do you mean by 'you would not have ended up any worse'?

                                          Now you're confusing pragmatic politics and an emotive response. There is no correlation between the two. I'd love to see the back of thsoe oyu have nmentioned but it won't happen: the inducements and the threats are not immediate or overwhelming.
