What if I posted a bunch of vids showing US troops getting killed by terrorists?

So many to choose from and download.

Would that make you angry at me? Hate me? Think I am the enemy? Unpatriotic?

Ask yourself why you think these thoughts?

Ask yourself why the war is so sanitized in the west. Why does it shock you so much to see this?

I know why. Do you?

Just be careful, Roland. We'd sure miss you around here if you were to ever fuck with the stability of Iraq.

Given your hypothetical actions all you are going to get are hypothetical responses. How unscientific. Really, anyone believing in science would post the vids in order to get a true reaction.

I'm hoping people are smarter and more honest than that. I have posted them in the past.

honestly you might think for a moment that it would be pretty cool to actually see someone murdered. but ive seen one of these videos and its really not that cool.

like in 40 year old virgin when cal is talkin about the chick fuckin a horse, it really is a chick fuckin a horse

you think seein a guy get his head chopped of would be cool but then you realize it really is a guy getting his head chopped off

Let's hear it for hope...

Okay, I'll respond. I'm sure I'd sleep even less than I've been sleeping lately because of the state of the world and the state of the U.S. That's my honest answer. I wouldn't hate you, but I'd hate everyone that has been shoveling coal into this terrorism machine. Namely gwb and his friends and family. I'd play out a homicidal episode of Itchy and Scratchy in my head where I completely dismember everyone in the current administration. Itchy and Scratchy help me get through a lot of shit these days.

Of course that might come after the sadness I feel for those being killed and their families. I might think of some of the people I know over there and the danger there in. I'd probably get a little teary eyed, maybe even cry a little. Then I'd start the Itchy & Scratchy stuff and get really pissed off. I'd read some Kurt Vonnegut, just like I do every night, and realize that there are better ways and the world, as bad as it is, isn't hopeless.....yet.

And I commented in the past. My feelings haven't changed. I don't want to see videos of Iraqis getting killed. I don't want to see videos of US soldiers getting killed. What do you actually hope to accomplish other than shit stirring?

Because it's not shit. It's of paramount importance but many fail to see it.

I believe all those who thought I was the devil for doing it still do, and there's many millions more that think the exact same way.

My point is they don't even properly understand or realize why they think like that. It's not even their own thoughts doing the thinking or drawing the conclusions.

i didnt mean the videos itself, i just meant what the cause of them is gonna be on here. i liked when you posted them the last time, it really gave me a new outlook on the "war"

They should be showing this on the evening news. Both Iraqis and our soldiers getting blown up, mangled etc...The coffins coming home. You know...the actual cost of the war.

Aside from the insane elitists that try to control us, we're (globally) all in the exact same boat.

Every Iraqi that dies is the same as an American dying. American troops are really just shooting at and killing themselves and the American people in the big picture.

I think there are precious few in the west that see it like this. How often we gloss right over and rejoice in the killing of "terrorists" but American deaths are so much more important and polarizing. Everyone is guilty of this (myself included) You cannot fully avoid these feelings without a fair deal of effort and thought.

This is the subliminal progamming that has enveloped us for (most of us) our entire lives.

Terrorists aren't born terrorists. They are human beings like Americans that are only reacting to hostile situations.

I believe we are being fooled into supporting our own demise and many people are just failing to see it. Many, many, many are falling right into the trap.

Not only that, but they criticize those who try to show or explain it for what it really is.

It's govt endorsed racism, and you really have to wonder why. The answer is to be found there.
