Disagreed.

But don't come crying about socialism and big governments when you think attacking other countries is normal and creates special rules.


I am not crying about socialism Arkh. I believe every socialist governnment should be destroyed. Period. I am not sure what you mean by creating special rules. Military actions which are directed by the commander in chief are, in my eyes, exempt from your rules of free knowledge. Any action by any reporter, news source or other which puts the lives of American Fighting men and women, or their allies, in needless danger, is not a good thing, but a thing which merits ruthless and quick removal from the gene pool of the human race.

I do not subscribe to some misguided belief that there are not governmental actions which are not on the up and up. I also do not subscribe to the naive belief that there is a guilt free government on the planet. I do however subscribe to the belief that thus far, in modern history, there are very few governments which have better merit than a democratic one, actually, scratch that, there are none.

You are sadly mistaken if you believe that America has any need to bend to the will of any country on the planet. We are weakened each and every time we allow the ridiculous notion that we are somehow going to take all the evil bullshit the world throws at us and shrug it off since we are all about freedom of speech and action, religion and the pursuit of happiness. Personally, it would not even bother my sleep pattern if Iran became a glass parking lot from border to border tomorrow, swiftly followed by Pakistan, and then any other country which houses radical terrorists and petty anarchists, regardless of what religious dogma they hide behind to justify their cause.

Simply stated, the entire rest of the world can kiss my royal ass when it comes to the lives of Americans in harms way, versus some radical's belief that the world deserves to know bullshit. Your belief that the world deserves to know will never stack up against even one life of a service member (American or ally) who was put in harms way, regardles of the wrongness or rightness of the governmental cause that put them there. I hope the distinction is clear. It's not about the politics for me, it's about the service men and women. Sorry if that disrupts someone's ideology about right and wrong.


Replace american by afghan or iraqi in your text. Then remember who attacked there.

And then, open an history book about the roman empire.
