Watchout that your own children or grandchildren don't form such a gang & come after you or your peers - some of you are in serious danger of it.

Post #55,339 by Ashton 10/7/02 6:34:35 PM Reply	re Bader-Meinhoff___US branch Well.. anything's possible - depending upon all the conceivable consequences of the next 'regime change' (and after all of Sen. Hatch's prayers heard just now on NPR's coverage of Senate hearings) on behalf of the Citizens of Utah - Natch: God, save Our Boys\ufffd from harm.. (Now as to what you do to Their Boys, well - you Are on Our Side, God, aintcha -?- or yer a Terrorist too.) I can't see current crop of US consumer-offspring, with cel-fones, expensive Logo-ed baggy pants; not a clue about math, history, civics or much else.. forming any such vendettas whatsoever ('cept maybe gettin the $16-18 per Cee Dee to hear Other folks [brave with distance from danger] rap about them bitches and the usual excrescences of people with neither direction nor discrimination to form one - nor any intention to look for such.) Nope, Bader-M folks began from pissed-offishness of the usual kind: Our Parents screwed up Royally. Incestuous self-indoctrination within the illusion of Retribution led to ... the same sort of 'justice' as with the Christians VS queers (or any other heretics). Neither did Bader-M or most Xians more than gloss over, vengeance is mine, saith the Lord and other cautions to retard homo-saps - enroute to vigilantism and massive egotism. But their org. indeed consisted of dedicated types and a POV. Both would be missing from most 'impressionable youth' in our consumption and feel-good besotted culture, y'know? But WTF - maybe a few anyway! Nothing better to do except shop.. and when that gets too boring and after the 300th Cee Dee with the same chords and maudlin lyrics as the other 299 [??] After all, the poverty of one's psyche - begins from being carefully taught trite homilies by a shallow parent within a banal culture.

One generation to be sickened when they found out what their parents did and one that thinks granda was right. Over here we have a generation that straightened the nazi's and nips out, came home and shut their mouths and got to work. Their kids were the questioning ones fighting a war that didnt make any sense and revolted against the silence then sold the american dream for a corner office. Their kids are the money hungry dotbombers who think that the world owes them 6 figures and a porche out of highschool, or spawning kids who will join the absolute underclass of society and we start all over again. thanx, bill will work for cash and other incentives [link\|http://home.tampabay.rr.com/boxley/resume/Resume.html\|skill set] qui mori didicit servire dedidicit

Saying we have the no fly zones to support the UN resolutions is not a lie. Ok, nowhere do the resolutions say "Establish no fly zones." Just like the resolutions aimed at getting Iraq out of Kwait(sp, late, lazy) did not say it's OK to bomb Bagdad. The UN resolutions gave us an inch, we took a mile. It's kind of the way those things work. My whole point is that argueing about this now is pointless. The no fly zones exist. They will be there until Saddam goes away. Switch brain on and Move on..... james
Post #55,408 by dmarker2 10/7/02 11:21:58 PM Reply	Re: But if claims are made, they should stand .. Some of us a merely pointing out that many claims made about Iraq are either mistakes, are deceptions or plain lies. I haven't seen one person here argue that Saddam is not a thuggish dictator deserving of a swift visit to Allah. The arguments have been mostly about the claims as to why at this time US can justify a unilateral attack when there is clearly worldwide and UN opposition to a war call. The republicans are playing with the facts & truth. They don't have UN backing - hence the hints that the UN will be sidelined unless the scurity council 'rolls over'. I know bare faced threats when I hear them - I hope you do too. Bush keeps claiming to speak on behalf of the world - a bare faced lie. Bush says he has a coalition. Again a complete distortion in that he has Italy and UK whoose PMs both do not have the support of their own countries other than to act through the UN. Australian PM has offered Bush support but the vast majority of Australians are telling Howard that it must be through the UN. When a president keeps lying, the world is a dangerous place - some of us begin to wonder who the bigger threat to peace is and as awful as it sounds, Bush's lack of facts & justifications paints an awful picture of his administration & in turns puts the whole US in a bad light in the world. But what the f* as I said before when you are the only superpoer f* the rest of the world & that seems to be the republican mantra based on their actions. Cheers Doug
Post #55,458 by Brandioch 10/8/02 7:28:44 AM Reply	Whatever. My point is I see a difference. Saying we have the no fly zones to support the UN resolutions is not a lie. Ok, nowhere do the resolutions say "Establish no fly zones." That's right. No where does it state that. No where. Just like the resolutions aimed at getting Iraq out of Kwait(sp, late, lazy) did not say it's OK to bomb Bagdad. Ummmm, an invasionary force went into another country and we went to war against said invasionary force. We were NOT acting upon a UN resolution at that time. The UN resolutions gave us an inch, we took a mile. It's kind of the way those things work. Only when it is us. By your same "logic", it would be "okay" for us to start bombing Israel whenever the UN sanctions them. Now, something for you to realize is that the ENTIRE REST OF THE WORLD has no problem seeing Bush's rationalizations for what they are. The UN passes a resolution requesting humanitarian aid for the Kurds and we interpret that to mean we can kill Iraqis. Request: "Please help the homeless in this season of giving." Translation: "I can shoot landlords." Again, the entire rest of the world sees Bush's rationalizations for what they are. There isn't one other country that supports our unilateral invasion. What was that you said about UN resolutions? When they say "humanitarian aid", we think "shoot pilots". Yet when the UN will NOT support our invasion plans, we will go ahead unilaterally. So, when the UN supports our plans, we do what we want. When the UN doesn't support our plans, we do what we want. When the UN passes a resolution, we interpret it to mean that we can do what we want. I'm seeing a pattern here. I'm not sure if everyone else is.

Oh and NEWS FLASH, the British still have planes flying to protect the no fly zones. So much for the "ENTIRE REST OF THE WORLD", Oh, forgot about the Israels. Bet they have no problem with it. Oh, forgot about what's left of the Kurds and Shittes(sp? again). Bet they don't have a problem with it either. Damn, that entire rest of the world actually gets smaller and smaller when you ACTUALLY LOOK AT THE FACTS. Of course, you are not REALLY interested in the facts. You want to make claims like "ENTIRE REST OF THE WORLD" and have people believe it as fact. BSSSSTTTT would you like to try for double jepordy? James
