wonder if in common with "gunner" anyone else using this forum, sees the many millions that have died as a direct result of us foriegn policy, and direct acts of aggression, as being somehow less than human?............non-people as it were
one wonders if any one, of more than one million Iraqi people that have died as a direct result of us agression and sanctions, actually posed any sort of threat to the us?.............there again i suppose as allbright told the world that the deaths of half a million children, was worth it, then i guess we can forget about them!
i guess you are going to need a few more "meat bags" to accomodate us troops killed in Iraq, and of course us civilians killed in forthcoming terror attacks!
sadly it is easily forgotten that Saddam was a client of the us, and was receiving direct us support, during the period when he carried out his worst atrocitys................indeed many of his chemical weapons, used materials and tech help from the us!
And, while he worked for our CIA he agreed to pay for the weapons we sent him...see what happens when you OWE Uncle Sam and try to stiff him. If he had only paid his gas bill....Hmmm
The fact that you feel the murder of thousands of people is a matter for humour, is perhaps the reason why amerikans are loathed throughout the civilised world!
Out of curiousity, do you do _any_ metalworking? For all of your criticisms on Gunner, at least he asks metalworking questions now and then. Google groups tells me that your ogre persona has never asked a metalworking question. And you aren't any more useful in the uk car groups. Do you need any help finding a new hobby?

No necessarily! If it's a choice between the others dying, and America havings its money and oil etc, then then others die. The US (and I admit it's not alone at all) has a good history of supporting, aiding, manipulating, or ignoring many horrible regimes when it suited them.
I do not "pick on" the US for this. Everybody does it at all levels if they can. Being piss-weak keeps Oz "honest", at l;east on a world stage . But even we have done or share of turning the odd blind eye.

hmmm indeed. So he was allowed to continue his attrocities as long as he "behaved himself"?

Actually I am a welder/fabricator....................but was so appalled by the ignorance, racism, intolerance and obvious stupidity of individuals such as "Gunner" that I felt it would be fun to pull his strings for a while..............
Which does seem to have resulted in less of his former personally generated clap-trap, and more posts linking to various loony right wing media storys!
Gummer

No 220-pound thug can threaten the well-being or dignity of a 110-pound woman who has two pounds of iron to even things out. Is that evil? Is that wrong? People who object to weapons aren't abolishing violence, they're begging for the rule of brute force, when the biggest, strongest animals among men were always automatically "right". Guns end that, and social democracy is a hollow farce without an armed populace to make it work. - L. Neil Smith
