7/9 Today's quote:
"We sleep safely in our beds because rough men stand ready in the
night to visit violence on those who would harm us". George Orwell
\_ Yes, and the same could be said if you were a Nazi under Hitler.
\_ It could? No, not really. BTW, you lose. You're not only the
first to mention Hitler or the Nazis but went straight to it.
\_ Yes, it applies. No, you lose. Try again.
\_ In our age there is no such thing as "keeping out of politics."
All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of
lies, evasions, folly, hatred, and schizophrenia. -George Orwell
\_ Who is harming who? It's only now that we are admiting our leader
lied to get popular support for the war, we essentially destroyed
all the infrastructures. We are "rebuilding" Iraq financed by
bonds backed up by next 10 years of oil produced by Iraq, which
only US Firm and its allies are benefiting. Frankly, this is
imperialism at work, almost as blatent as Britian's Opium War
150 years ago. And you are saying that they are harming us?
\_ Stupid or naive - you decide:
\_ they're screwing us anyway with terrorism, we'll screw
them with imperialism
\_ you really think that they were the one who fired
the first shot? |
