one day
Naw, didn't happen of course, but I assure you, the day will come again.

One day you'll hear or read something like this. When that day comes, do you really think all this inflaming of the Arab world was worth it? Are you still glad your oil is less expensive? Your SUV model this year bigger than last?

I mean, do you really, truly, deep down believe that invading Iraq made a terrorist attack in the next 15 years impossible?

Did our politicians do us right? Did they protect us by starting another war?

You'll probably get banned for this, Neo. Of course, you shouldn't, as you have a valid point, but my guess is that certain mods won't care

Not even I would do something as low as this
The point is great, but the presentation is not.

Aside from a bit of sexual innuendo, what's the problem w/ the questions?

He created another thread, something about "Massive Terrorist Attack in San Diego! Over 2000 feared dead!" and had a link TO THIS THREAD which said "Read about it here".

Oh, okay. Yeah, that's pretty stupid. But par for the course from a libertyrant.

OK, Thieven, it's already been pointed out to you that Libertarians are about as far away from tyranny as you can get. I'm sorry, but refusing to steal money from the rich to pay the medical bills of the poor is NOT tyranny - it's basic morality.

I don't even see what was so tasteless about it. Honestly. Explain it to me. Did it strike a nerve you didn't know existed? I decided to make a striking point. Some have even bothered to react to it. And even though you may be angry at me for making said point, I believe every person who read the other threads title for a moment felt the reality that will one day again behest us.

It probably will not be San Diego, or Seattle, or Jacksonville. But it will be somewhere. And for what?

I haven't got an answer. Is there one? I don't think there is. In this direction, the war will never end. No matter how Iraq turns out, the seeds have been sewn. The next attack will precipitate more American retaliation, and a decade or so after that..... and on and on and on and on.

Now, just get back to your life, and forget this whole little thing happened. Just keep doing more of the same. More occupation, exploitation, and bombing. It all happens so far away.

Make another blatantly misleading thread title like the one you linked this thread to, and you'll be a loooooong time before you'll be posting here.

"Making a point" does not equal blatantly false "news evebt" threads about mass casualties.
