Iraq Quiz

Yes, and the Italian was not an innocent person who was killed. Yes, you will say, he was killed as a result of the war. But think about it. Those who killed him are going to be roaming in Iraq and killing innocent people. Pick your side. First you complain that no one did anything to stop the genocide in Rwanda, then you come and say something totally contradictory to that.

I didn't complain no one stopped the genocide. If you know anything about history, no one can stop a genocide. I merely pointed it out. It's called making an observation. Furthermore I am on the side of those who want to end the war, pull out.

I suppose the Armenians who would be killed if the Muslim fanatics come to power would not be all that innocent, eh?

This is a baseless claim. What do you base it on? And if that happens, if I were the Armenians there, I would fight to the last death than have to be "helpless". This has nothing to do with the situation now. The Arabs are reacting to years of U.S. and Israeli aggression, your claims about them "killing Christians" or "Lebanon" or "Armenians" are baseless claims used to rile up the situation.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Kurds are behind this.

Have you taken a look at your posts in this thread? None of them follow anything remotely resemling reality. They are all possible guesses and beliefs you old of things that "might" or you "believe" will happen. Get with the program.

Baseless claim? Oooook, are you disqualifying what I have seen with my own eyes? I suppose your "theories" are more "baseful" than my account of what really goes on in a country where there are Muslims and Christians... When was the last time you took a look at Lebanese politics? Or the situation with Armenians in Lebanon right now? Or during the war for that matter? Who started the war anyway? Not the Syrians and Israelis by any chance? Who took advantage of it and placed its troops in Lebanon and is not refusing to withdraw? Who killed thousands of Christians? Who armed the militias?

Moreover, who shot at those Armenians? Are you calling these baseless claims and guesses? The truth is out there - all it takes is one that sees it.

Israel and Syria battling it out on Lebanese land. Kinda neat, huh?

And Armenians targetted as well.

In addition, with regards to the Iraq war:

Well, thanks for the link but you've totally derailed the thread. You have given no reason why there should be war. As far as the link for the Iraqi women, that is war, they were working with the U.S. Is there any more clear example of guilt by association, than that? Now let's focus on the initial thread, not what your opinions are.

[Darorinag]

Ha, so first you ask for the links and when you get something you don't like, you say it's off-topic... hmmm...

Does it matter - they shot at civilians. Anyone who has the heart to shoot at civilians can shoot at anyone, regardless of whether or not they are Muslims, Christians, etc. How are they any different than the U.S. at any rate? They're doing exactly the same thing. So who's more desperate? .....

I asked for the links, and I read them. That had nothing to do with you assaulting with the barrage of your opinions from your first post. You've addressed nothing in the original thread I made. Who's going off-topic? Syria and Lebanon had nothing to do with this.

Compare that to the violence the U.S. has done around the world? Killing the civilian is a reaction of U.S. Imperialism. If you cannot look at things in historical context, then you don't need to be bothered with for you have preconceived opinions as is the case ( when you're not busy saying Holocaust believers have preconceived opinions ). Which is worse them killing a few civilians ( which you erroneously and weakly use as a case for war ) or the U.S. and British sanctioned via the U.N. which killed an estimated 500,000 children in Iraq. You tell me. And if they do kill civilians, in the backdrop of the history of that part of the world in recent times, it is understandable, not right, but understandable.

The United States has this wonderful cloak of a term: collateral damage.

[Darorinag]

OK, so you're comparing the violence of the U.S. "around the world" and you consider my comparison to whatever the Muslims have done around the world irrelevant? Please. You're obviously biased.

Stop justifying the killings of innocent civilians by Muslim fanatics by using the "reaction" excuse. Killing innocent people is not justified AT ALL TIMES. Period.

Killing innocent people is not justified AT ALL TIMES.

Only sometimes then?
