supporting the war and supporting the death of Iraqi civilians are two different things. second of all, the Iraq war has very little support for a long time.
As Collin said, you shouldn't be putting words in my mouth it only weakens your argument. Supporting the death of Iraqi civilians and viewing this happening as collateral damage are very two different ideas. No, I do not believe Americans are in a circle jerk at the thought of dead Iraqi civilians, but I have my suspicions about how many actually care or are willing to do something about it.
You are entitled to believe that Americans care deeply about the death of Iraqi civilians caused by their military. As an outsider, I don't see it that way and it seems there are several others who agree with me.
just because you dont have the balls to admit it doesnt mean its not true. besides I said I have heard others make the argument, not necessarily you. although you are saying those people living there are not innocent. I'll even gather a guess that you wouldnt feel too bad if many of the Palestinian rockets starting actually hitting their intended civilian targets.
Do you even read what you type? You are saying I do not have the balls to admit I want Palestinians to attack Israeli civilians? Is this your argument?
You are quoting me. Don't quote me and say I do not have the balls to admit it if OTHERS have made the argument. Mammasan was stating that they are innocent civilians, I said I'm not sure how innocent they are and now you are accusing me of wanting rockets to land on their heads. Great argument.
Regardless of this have you seen the numbers of civilian death tolls on both sides? Have you seen the death tolls of Lebanese civilians/Hizbullah fighters and Israeli civilians/IDF soldiers in the 2006 Lebanon war? They show you who the real terrorists are.
I didnt make it up pal. I was quoting the chairman of a major Arab organization.
I absolutely think Israel so go back to the 1967 borders (or something close to it) with a shared capital. but I also don't think that would end the problem, but it would be a nice start.
I never said you made it up. At this point in time I personally do not care what the chairman of a major Arab organization is demanding considering the Israelis are yet to withdraw to the 1967 borders. Until they do this whole argument of continued Palestinian violence after such a withdrawal is irrelevant.
why do some people make it out like this israeli-palestinian conflict is an actual war?? ... we're not talking about two sides battling it out ... we're talking about one with a huge military and backing that has people living a high standard of life vs. another group that are mostly living in what we would ball in poverty, having to buy arms from wherever they can ...
one side has the newest military technology ... the others have slingshots ...
"Fighting a war" sounds a lot more catchy to the mainstream media than bombing the shit out of civilians and hopelessly armed militias.
