I will say though, that, using your kind reasoning skills is not what the most intelligent among us do. In order to establish a perimeter of truth one at least has to look past one's own hate...and to do that one must recognize one's own hate for what it is...and to do that one must first see that one has a problem with hate...which is where I guess, most haters get lost in the maze. Good luck finding your way out. Before you can entangle yourself from your hatred you need to hate the hated so the heated can help the hatted horn their hooters at the heckled....Ducks. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll try to put it in very simple terms: this is the way the Bad Guys behave. The way "terrorists" behave. "Tear people to shreds" and gloat about it afterwards. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hammerclaw 28,660 #153 Posted January 3, 2020 1 minute ago, .AKUMA. said: That is an absolutely ridiculous statement, are you out here justifying terrorists killing american soldiers because the americans launched raids killing their families? so they are also right to avenge the death of one of their own? We don't expect they will be more or less terrorizing either way. You're approval of how we conduct our response to lethal force is not required. War is cruelty--there's no way to refine it. A passive response would have the effect of encouraging more such actions. They now know our response will be equal to the provocation. Let's see how eager they are to continue, starting at every shadow of a bird, passing overhead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joc 18,903 #154 Posted January 3, 2020 Just now, TrumanB said: I have much more concrete facts from the past decades than a plain definition but that may sound anti-American on an American forum so I'll just skip it this time. In the first place ....this is not an American forum! Americans take part in it...as well as Aussies, Brits, Canadians, Norwegians, New Zealanders...I don't have the time to list all the countries members of this forum occupy....but it is Saru's forum...and Saru is not American...he's not ever really human, rumor has it...he is actually ....a Deity of sorts. But you do sound anti-American...but that's okay...we call it..Free Speech..go ahead...make my day...let's here your definition of Belligerence. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terrorists do indeed behave exactly that way...which is why they have been given the sultry, nasty, evil name of 'terrorists'. I guess it is worth noting before I hand you your free one way ticket to a cave in Western Afghanistan that the difference is: Terrorists do it to INNOCENT citizens of the Earth...and we do it to...terrorists. Something really worth gloating about if you ask me. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, I'm just assuming but given how happy you are at the prospect of War with Iran, you'll be joining up to fight on the front lines, right? You wouldn't be happy just letting other people die for your country would you? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

America and its allies like Saudis have been using terrorist proxies to do their dirty work for years, its absolutely ridiculous how they can use this very statement to justify attacking Iran. of-course Netanyahu is pleased, Israeli news must be flooded right now, placing attention away from his ongoing corruption scandal. what an absolute joke this all is.
