I agree...we need to understand who we disagree with. This is the smartest of things. We need to know WHY they disagree...
Why did they strike us on 9/11? Why do they hate us? Why do they want to kill americans?
Really ask yourself why....before you start spoutin,"lets just bomb all of those towel heads...lets just eliminate the mideast..."
Why are their terrorists? Really! I'm not kidding! Why the fuck do they want to kill us?
I think thats a great thread topic on it's own. And I'm glad that someone like this indivual has the balls to come over here and explain the politics and the way how things work in the middle east.
We are so gd gung ho about shooting up those that defy us in the middle east. But so many of us that just want to "shoot 'em up" have no idea why they hate us so much.
