Isn't that what political discussion is all about? Ya know, I was thinking, since foreigners and wanna-be advocates seem to hate US POLICY doesn't it make more sense for the US to do as it pleases? Yah, I thought so too.

On 1st January 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, supported by the representatives of 26 countries, published the Declaration by United Nations, a do-*BAD WORD*-ent that pledged their governments to continue fighting together against Nazi Germany and Japan during the Second World War. The forerunner of the United Nations was the League of Nations, an organization conceived in similar cir-*BAD WORD*-stances during the first World War, and established in 1919 under the Treaty of Versailles "to promote international cooperation and to achieve peace and security." The International Labour Organization was also created under the Treaty of Versailles as an affiliated agency of the League. The League of Nations ceased its activities after failing to prevent the Second World War. Well, look at that boys and girls, a US PRESIDENT re-established the idea of the league of nations by creating the UN. Have a nice day.

lol, Dav -- isn't that statement meant for you?

You are posting simply to see your posts. Not wasting my time with you.

Check to make sure you aren't playing in Windowed mode.

Psst....let it go man. You'll be ok.

Seems like all those remarks are the very dead horse issues. You're -*BAD WORD*-bent on finding WMD's when obviously the security of the USA was the primary concern while you attempt to avoid the fact that there are many valid reasons for the US action there. I'm terminating my discussion on this any longer as you are over the top and simply showing nothing but hatred. Regards.

? Can you summarize your thoughts?

Sorry that I hurt your feelings. What a wasted effort. <_<

A few of you are from the Dominican Replublic. I thought it would be interesting to get a perspective from each to understand why you hate the USA so much. I understand that the DR was nearing civil war in 1965, and before it could break out, the USA sent troops in to overthrow the government in the prevention of another Cuban incident. Apparently many youth lost their lives during that invasion, and many families lost the claims to their lands. Unfortunately, both the USA and the DR live with this problem from over 39 years ago. Can there be any resolve to hate? If I !@#$%^&*umed correctly, many US corporations own stakes to major sugar fields in the country and hire laborists at very low wages. This is a common practice among corporations from the USA and abroad. I'm not trying to bring up bad feelings, in fact, I would like to know how the youth today feel about the USA today. Peace.

Nuclear capabilities are not only within the US. Most US allies have active nukes with ICBM capability....let's move on shall we?

Opk Dayv, I fnik that I witl punder wat yo have to say aftr u get a edumacation! Anyway whilest you are beating the dead horse: Afghanistan harbored terrorists -- end of that discussion. Iraq was suspected of harboring terrorists, funding terrorism against the US and its allies (yes, your country too), constructing or in the development of WMD's for offensive tactics, and its leader was killing its own people. The UN was CREATED BY and ESTABLISHED BY the US. Show me the UN laws stating that any nation cannot act in the interest of its own security. I would however love to see a new US policy. We should let small countries be invaded by larger ones, allow major catastrophies to go unaided in foreign countries, and close up technological advances made by the US to any other country. I would suspect that you will be crying "why don't you yankees help other countries?" Then, when someone comes to screw with us, we'll banish them from our little world and forget about their problems -- or just nuke em off the face of the planet. Isn't that what you want? Let's face it, it's one earth, only one, and we all have to live here in these current times. Things don't always go as planned - matter of fact they rarely do, and people are faced with tough decisions. Stop crying.

Here's your wife: http://www.shanky.com/images/girls/elin_gryndemyr2_.jpg

woot, vote for me as a write in. As president I will: - Feed the poor. - Provide subsidies for teachers in low-income/hostile school districts. - Eliminate medical insurance. Provide medical coverage to all citizens. - Bring all standard military personel home to provide police, patrol, fire, and guard coverage across the nation. - Crack down on child porn, child rape, child kidnapping, and anything done to children. Create a special department which is devoted to this 24/7. - Legalize many drugs while increasing awareness of altercations of drugs. If we can drink ourselves to death, why not let drugs be drugs. - Increase government grant programs and the awareness of such. - Restart the "Save a Tree" campaign. oh - and allow women to go topless in all public areas! woot!

I see thru ur lies Dr Brain! u r an evil and vile programmer. With all the good stuff you do, I am certain that you are trying to take over the SS world! muahahahahaha! jk

Tony Blair seems to support Bush/Rumsfeld, and if things get tough over here, those are the two people that will be needed most to resolve things. This is not peacetime and requires people who can make tough decisions, and whom have to trust in the people they represent to act accordingly.

I too am unemployed, dealing with the fact that much of my job has been outsourced to India. Do I like it? No. But do I support the actions of a president who listened to 90% of his congress when the decision to take action was announced, yes. I don't support finger pointing, no genuine plan people like John Kerry. If we are all sitting here complaining about our economic situation, shouldn't his primary and number one focus be that? If not, how about something like building foreign relations? Has Kerry outlined a plan for effectively managing that? Ok, how about education? What's his stance on that? Oh, you don't know? Me either, because he has none. Instead John Kerry's role is Bush bashing -- which any idiot can do.

You simply cannot claim that you don't hate the USA and that you "see thru their lies" in the same sentence. Some actions of this country leave some of it's own citizens questioning why....but have they always got all the facts? Most likely no. It appears that if things don't change for the better, our country will be dealing with some hard times. Hard times create tough choices. But if you must reflect on the general at!@#$%^&*ude of the USA, let's consider major catastrophic events: When an earthquake killed hundreds in Turkey, the USA was among the first to provide aid. When an earthquake hit Iran, we offered our help and !@#$%^&*istance. When Kuwait was invaded by Iraq, we provided protection and force for a country that couldn't defend itself. Even now, as the DR and Haiti deal with major losses from flooding, the USA is there to help first and most by dollar and number. Yet, when some terrorists destroyed the World Trade Centers killing more than 3000+ people, no one offered help, or provided !@#$%^&*istance. They laughed. Go on with your hate; kindly tell your country that the USA has decided not to help anyone anymore. We'll take our WEAPONS, our MEDICAL AID, our PROTECTION, and even your bashing neo-colonialism away..... be well.

Under Clinton we never experienced the loss of 3,000+ innocent lives. Under Bush we had 90% agreement that military action was warranted. But I agree, something better needs to be done regarding employment. But notice how John Kerry is so quick to point out all the mistakes about war, yet has NO F'N PLAN for fixing the economic situation.

Agreed. Funny how hard it is for our foreign friends to understand this.

First off....only a handful of companies in the US benefit from this. I mean lets face it, if you sell tomatoes for a living, you won't benefit from weapon sales. Also, the over-stock of Russian military equipment from the cold war is what finds its way into hands of terrorists. There's your 60% my finger pointing friend.

...from the mind of SuSE's experience.

....and ssforum.net should require that each member have at least a 5th grade education before posting here; this would render their posts typographically correct and grammatically readable.

That is a horrible thing! Why would anyone, any reasonable, rational person want to have continued turmoil. I am willing to bet that 99% of the world desires peace, harmony, and freedom. Is that what war will bring? No -- but I'm saying that I think the 'chess game' would continue despite how much I, or you, or any of us would like it to cease today.

so MC, I'm confused about your 'rights'. You cannot kill any Muslims, but if someone threatens you or your family you can kill them. So where do Islamic extremist terrorists come in? Can you kill them because you live in the USA and they have threatened the 'zionists'. Or, do you spare them despite any wrong doings because they claim to be Muslims. In America, I think the law states that if in self-defense you kill someone, you may be spared, however it is not for certain. There is no aspect of Christianity that allows for killing of humans at will for any reason, and I don't think that there is anything in the Koran of that nature either.
