Ok, I saw that Nasus thought the Bush thread should turn into a current events thread but it was rightfully closed so I decided to start one. Pick one topic for this and only one. After the topic is picked I will replace the 1 in the title to whatever the topic is. Also, don't pick anything that is currently being discussed or has been discussed before unless there is something new and important.

It's not just about debate. It's about logic and the world around us.

well, I think 10 years is adequate...

I'd be pretty pissed if I had to spend 10 years in jail for "torture and humiliation".... I mean.... it almost seems excessive, except that I think the US government wants harsh punishment to prevent more occurances, and to increase the worlds view of them

10 years is good, i think. I think those other little b****es that took pictures of the iraqis should have gotten some years too ( the ones that made them do sexual moves and junk)

The US government will never look good in the eyes of other countries I don't think.


Not that the US deserves to look good mind you.

well no, but when the US supports the no torture policy.... and then it's own troops use torture like tactics, whether for interrogation or not.... it looks bad....

and the US probably won't look bad forever, and to everyone.... they just need a president that is more diplomatic than Bush

Its because they want to hate us. They want to have a reason to.

Yes, Because other countries WANT to hate us. They have absolutely NO reason to hate us. Right?

Wrong.

Nobody has a mind set to just WANT to hate something.

Something has to be said or done to anger someone. You don't just hate something 'because'.

John thats foolish, you sound like a child. Hatred is objective yes, but its not without reason. The reason is not always valid but there is always a catalyst.

In response to the 10 year sentence, this guy is just a scapegoat. The orders for the "abuse" came from a much higher source than this guy. This is just meant to try and find some closure to an issue that could turn out to be an enormous scandal if fully investigated. We'll see how things unfold I guess.

Jin i didn't say that, so stop attempting to put words in my mouth
So anyways, the hollocost happened because people wanted to hate the jews, right? Thats a perfect example. They wanted somebody to blame their problems on. Dont call me foolish. Expecially when i am not. They want us to be the root of their problems. It is easier to blame us then themselfs. How about in the old south? People wanted to hate the blacks. They were taught to also. Same thing happens in the middle east.

But the sentance was fine. The guy learned a lesson, and will never do it again. That i can assure you.

"Its because they want to hate us. They want to have a reason to."

You said it, Not me.

They have every reason to hate America. It's probably the same reasons *I* hate the current state of America.

We need some serious change, America was on a good front when Clinton was in office, But then again all the republicans keep in mind is he got oral sex in the oval office..

If I was married to Hillary, I would be too. Hah.

But I digress and I think that Bush is putting us back in the state of utter chaos around the world that Nixon and Bush senior put us through.

That's why they hate us.

The hollocaust happened because Hitler saw the Jews as inferior because of what the bible says they did ages ago. He was also upset to see the outcome of WWI against Germany when Germany was not the one who started the war. The old south didn't hate the African Americans. They were also seen as inferior because the state their society was in when they were found. The African American were oppressed and enslaved, but they weren't hated by most of the people. Thinking something/someone is inferior doesn't mean you hate it/them.

HA! The Germans HATED the jews cuz Hiltar told them they were the source of all their problems. So naturally they thought they were inferior. This doesn't mean they didn't hate them. In the south they wouldn't even let a black man look at the women. And if they did, they were most likely lynched. Along these tensions hate formed. It is stupid to try to deny it. Dont put a spin on this, its pretty black and white.

I hate it when people think everything is BLACK AND WHITE.

I also hate the fact that people are demonizing Iraq.. Their loss.

If life was Black and White, Well it'd be a hell of alot simpler to be a good person. But in reality nothing is black and white. Things you do in life you think make you a good personal may end up being your downfall..

In general life isn't black and white. But some things are. People (liberals for the majority(from my experiances)) like to nit pick all these little details and not look at the big picture. Really its kinda funny. They just keep runing around, finding all these little things that are bad. They live their whole lives just all sad and mad and frusturated cuz stuff isn't going PERFECT. Sometimes people need to look at the BIG picture. Things are fine. Relax and enjoy life while you still can.
