It happened, time to get over it.

Just like any other infamous day in history.

Yes time to get over it, but not forget about it. We let our guard down and boom itll happen again. Then itll start all over and thats the last thing we need.
 
Good article on this very topic in the new Foreign Policy.

I thought I heard somewhere on the news recently that Sadam's regime had tried to hunt down Bin Laden (considering that they are mortal enemies because of their religious views). Yet, Bush Junior decided it was a better idea to invade the strategic Middle Easter country and drive it into the ground, arresting the very guy who was trying to track down Bin Laden, and getting thousands of Americans killed.

Edit: yeah, I'm sick of hearing how first responders are such heroes. Come on folks, if they knew those buildings were going to collapse, they wouldn't have gone in. It's the first rule of rescue. The term "hero" gets thrown around waayyy too much these days. Shit, while I'm at it, just because people are in the military and are fighting in Iraq does not mean they are "defending America". I hear this on the news all the time (Fort Campbell morons). They're not doing shit for America except making the rest of the world hate us more and more.

remember when there were like 50 million indians in north america

Thats not even a good comparison. Indains were already here and the Government which was formed from a group of people who had laid claim from another country moved all of them and yes killed them but white men were the foreigners. Saddam was the dictator of his own country and were killing his own people. I understand your point but he was killing his own people. To the whites indians were not their people. A better match wouldve been Joseph Stalin. He killed shitloads of his own people.
 
i wasn't serious, but how is thousands of "his own" people (which they weren't, if you're talking about the ethnic kurds or the iranians which is most of the death toll) worse? that just doesn't make any sense at all. not to mention we're talking about how the war in iraq isn't being waged in defense of america, so the fact that saddam killed non-americans doesn't even really enter into the equation in this discussion.

So mass genocide is ok when your not murdering your own people? so Hitler was good? killing the native americans off was ok but Saddam killing a whole bunch of Kurds is bad...

Wasnt Saddam killing all the people in his own country anyway and last time I checked mass genocide was not considered "Acceptable"

its not aceptable unless its approved by the U.S.
well thats what it looks like to me
the U.S. is the biggest sponsor of state terrorism
 
There's a documentary on some time this week called "9/11 Liars" about people who faked their own death and stuff in order to get the compensatation that was paid out to the victims. Should be interesting!
 
BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH WHO RWEALLY GIVSS A SHIT AYNWAYS!

a terrorist is a guy with a bomb but no air force

and um yeah for the record everlostetc is pretty much completely wrong about saddam killing his "own people" as mormagil pointed out

durr they're all brown though
