I thought someone was going to rip Typhoid a new anus, but so far no flaming.

Is it me, or do strong democrats come off as being close to socialists? They always seem to want to benefit the elderly, and the poor...I think. I'm not exactly sure on this..because I can't remember. Ah screw it, I hate debating politics because I'm so bad at it.

Democracy is the way to go. Too bad that the Republicans had to "win" the American election

War is good. Kill everyone thats not like us. That will solve all our problems.

Is that what you wanted to hear so you could spout off more with your anti-american babble? This topic has been beaten to death over and over and over again, and I will not waste everyone's time by repeating the arguments as to why the war was justified. If you didn't listen the first 10 times, why would I think you would listen now?

Who really cares if he can support it or not, hes right either way. Blab on Thyphoid.

Oh, so you should just support an ignorant opinion whether or not it has any basis in fact, as long as it supports your beliefs. Hooray for liberalism.

IGNORAMUS's AHOY!!!

First off, Typhoid is new here so he missed this argument the first 10 times.

Also, most people who oppose the war base their views on "how many civilians are being needlessly killed?"

In this war, many civilians are being needlessly killed. Most people respond to this by saying things like "They're casualties of war" or "because they were fighting back."

Casualties of war is bull****. Go on the internet on sites like the English Al Jazeera news site. Look for some of the war videos out there that they won't show on TV because it makes america look bad. A while ago on CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) they showed unedited videos from the war that were not allowed to be shown on CNN (like most of the footage from the war). I saw some very diturbing footage. On the internet I also found some very disturbing footage. One particularily disturbing piece of footage was an entire family being killed for not cooperating with the soldiers. The most disturbing piece of footage I saw was an American soldier talking about how "awesome" it was to kill Iraqis. I'll paraphrase it for you.

Everyone just opens fire on him. Then he's dead and you're like "Oh man, that was awesome. Let's do that again."

Too many people are being killed there.

the other argument was that the Iraqi civilians weren't cooperating. Of courrse they aren't cooperating. If America was being taken over by anotehr country and being occupied, Americans would fight back.

There was a study conducted recently (I'll try to see if there's a link to it on the internet) stating that in every family (immediate family, grandparents, grandchildren, first cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces nephews) at least one person has been killed.

Killing their family members isn't the best way to make them not hate you.

I won't stop opposing the war until Iraqi civilians stop being killed.

I agree on the whole Iraqi's not cooperating. If we were being invaded and the opposing country gained control of the US, would WE cooperate? Hell f*cking no. Iraqi's are feeling the same way. Not all of them see us as a "savior who has come to free from evil". Some see it as a takeover and they dont take it lightly.

Considering America has bombed them so many times, Americans aren't all that respected in Iraq.

Yeah, but you have and I refuse to continually repeat myself to people who refuse to listen.

Oh, I know. I've heard your excuses. You can say all you want supporting the war. You can wave giant signs and dance on top of a roof with a megaphone and let all around hear your excuses why this war is justified. Say them all you want. But most will still disagree with you. Any argument I've heard supporting the war is full of holes. If it's a just cause then I'll accept that innocent people will die. But this is crap. The biggest argument is that Saddam was a tyrant. Yes, he killed his own people. But America has killed many times more Iraqis than he has over the last 15 years. You could have captured him without shooting civilians I'm sure.

That is a rather sweeping generalization. Who does "they" refer to?"That input matched my default category" reason was to get bush re-elected and it is going to work ?
