Section 2: Who Are The Bastards? (started 5-6-2002)

            Why do most Americans detest the terrorists who crashed into the two trade towers in New York and killed 5,000 people?  Most would probably say it is because they were fanatically convinced of their own ideas using the conflict to distract their people from their domestic problems; they succeeded in a preemptive attack using unorthodox and new weaponry against a defenseless enemy in an unprovoked attack under the pretext of vague and later proven pointless rhetoric. 

            Why do most Americans detest the Nazi Germans who invaded Poland and killed countless people?  Most would probably say it is because they were fanatically convinced of their own ideas using the conflict to distract their people from their domestic problems; they succeeded in a preemptive attack using unorthodox and new weaponry against a defenseless enemy in an unprovoked attack under the pretext of vague and later proven pointless rhetoric.

            Why do most Americans detest the Japanese who bombarded Pearl Harbor and killed 5,000 people?  Most would probably say it is because they were fanatically convinced of their own ideas using the conflict to distract their people from their domestic problems; they succeeded in a preemptive attack using unorthodox and new weaponry against a defenseless enemy in an unprovoked attack under the pretext of vague and later proven pointless rhetoric.

            Why does the majority of the world oppose a US invasion of Iraq which will likely result in the deaths of innumerable numbers of civilians?  Most would probably say it is because they were fanatically convinced of their own ideas using the conflict to distract their people from their domestic problems; they succeeded in a preemptive attack using unorthodox and new weaponry against a defenseless enemy in an unprovoked attack under the pretext of vague and later proven pointless rhetoric.

 

            Perhaps George W. wants to bring the United States into the hall of aggressors in the modern era.  The truth is there is no intelligent reason for an invasion except that the weapon lobbyists in the US government bought the Republican congress... (4-21-2003)
