255 innocent Somalis were killed by our bombs just the other day and thousands more in Afghanistan and Iraq have been killed.

Oh but someday we'll call the relatives of the dead who seek revenge, terrorists.

1. No.
I would know that US intentions are all noble and would hope they would rule me with their international corporate interests.

2. As well we should. For after all, Americans only kill to bring
Truth, Justice and The American Way to such benighted little people.

Well that and to steal their oil, of course. But even then we're doing it for their own good.

8. It's tough love
and tough love is never easy, that's why they call it tough.

doing it for their own good so one day they can feel superior too.

5. If they were defending Bush?
No, I'd figure they got what they deserved. I wrote a letter asking the UN to take action against Bush, I wouldn't hardly object if some foreign country did. The rest of the world has a right to defend itself from this idiot.

7. You see, this is the common sense no one has in this or any other war...
with the purpose of "liberation". It's a bunch of bullcrap.
