The Question said:I think it's the Arabian Knight (althou PCified up the wazoo). AK carried a sword (the red guy has a lightsaber), and people have said that the red guy looks like he could be middle eastern.
Dude. Think about it. America has invaded two countries in the past five years, destroyd their governments, and turned them into our own versions of them. Yes, they had ******* leaders.
Remember 911??? Do you??? That's why we invaded Afgahnistan!! Good grief!! Iraq's invasion was for the WMD. Did they find it? No. Does that mean they never had it? NO! Did every government on the planet believe they had them?? YES!!
Do you like living the way you live?? Do like being able to worship your own way? Drive up to your nice home or apartment? Just have a friggin cook-out if you want??? Things we take for granted. It is arrogance to think that those people over there don't want the same things that you do!! Liberty and freedom!! How would you like to throw into a wood shredder if you lost a soccer game? That happened in Iraq! We've uncovered 3 mass graves!! How would you like your daughter or wife picked out of a crowd while at a soccer game for Saddam's sons to rape?? News Flash!! FREEDOM IS NOT FREE! tHE TALIBAN WOULD BEAT DOWN HELPLESS WOMEN! Those women can vote and go to school now in Afghanistan!! Iraq's economy is growing! Sewers and clean water are being put in places that Saddam let rot!! Marsh lands that Saddam destroyed have been restored so that those people can live there again.
But who are we to just barge into other countries and tell them what's best? Also, we've pretty much made ourselves in charge of the U.N., and when they do tell us not to do something we tell them to piss of and we do it anyway.
As for "they're the ones who blow up their own kids", the U.S. has sent 18 year old kids in the middle east to die for oil.
Those were men and women who "volunteered" to serve! Not brain washed 9-year-olds schooled by mad Islamo whack jobs.
Gas prices are still sky high! What friggin' oil????
If you think we don't need oil, don't drive that car...don't ride that bus..
Now, I'm not trying to be a "liberal leftist", as you put it (I tend to consider myself a centrist), but there is some serious bull**** going on with our government right now. It really wouldn't surprise me if other countries saw America as the new roman empire.
[B]If you truly knew your history you'd never equate this country with Roman. See anybody thrown into any colesiums lately?? America has liberated the friggin' world on too many occasions just so people like you can have short memories and enjoy the freedoms that our military provides. [/B]
And the "they're the ones who blow up their own kids" comment wasn't cool. Try to be a little more sensative.
When they stop...I'll stop.
