Nothing more to say about France and Poland then?
Would you ever accept my apologies.

Correct, the Americans never did something quite like the Japanese rape of Nanking.
I surely need new books.
I'm glad to hear that you make your own opinion, and I believe that. What about going to Vietnam and talk to the people there, maybe you'll discover that some rapes happened. You never know.

I don't need to go to Vietnam to know that rapes happened or that America was wrong for being there in the first place. I know that already and so I can save the plane fare.

Well don't think that the point of any thread is to find out who are the good and the bad ones.
It all start by "shouldnt we all be mourning the two thousand WTC victims", and my answer is that it's very dispisefull to ask different people to mourn just some of them.
Mourn them all or dont ask a collective mourning for just them.
And you know, in Lao you could hardly find any clothes that don't have a military design or a US army one (except the ones with Lao beer). So I just asked some person one day "how can you wear that with everything that they've done here" and the answer was "on the same day they left, our people forgave them"
We surely have all still a lot to learn of the most important things in life, things that arent googable.

This says a lot about the people in a positive way in my opinion. We would do well to remember that.
I agree with your last sentiment.
Thanks for that.
Another place that you have to go one day, is Madurai. The Ghandi museum is there and I've never felt so much emotion than in reading Gandhi's word. Unknown and unheard in this part of the world.
There was something like "India will propose non-violence as a political system. And it might fail. And India might dispear for that. But if India disapear, it doesnt matter, it would be the message that India would have left to the world: non-violence doesnt work"
It just sad to see that nowadays, in India Gandhi is merely a face on...rupee banknotes, and pretty much nothing in the rest of the world.

Oh yes, America is obviously responsible for Muslims bombing muslims. Or Saddam killing 180,000 Kurds. Yes it all makes sense now that we know America is responsible for all that.
If only people could do the same about the children of Iraq who have died after drinking their own waste from bombed sewerage plants and witnessed the deaths of some 100,000 people around them.
Originally posted by sonhouseWell as you have read from your own trops and President, there's no weapon factory over there.

So who sell them the weapons?
Who sell the weapons to Iran for the Iran-Irak war?
Who trained and funded the Taliban to fight their own people within Afganistan?
And who sell the weapons in the rest of Africa to keep on those civil wars as long as Africa doesnt produce weapons?
It's surely not America ONLY, but it is surely part of it.

Originally posted by JeeI thought the US primarilly sold weapons to Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war, rather than Iran.

Originally posted by rowpcWell I dunno, I am having problems for the moment because US dollar is getting very weak when compare to Euro, so on my monthly meeting with the CIA, I asked for a refund for the difference. But they said that what they give me is enough for what I do.

I'm getting tired of playing hide and seek in the oval office with Junior.
I mean try to get new places to hide all the time in a OVAL office...
You didnt really thought that a bilionair friend with the Bush family sleeps in a dusty training camp, do you?
Originally posted by JeeI'm not saying the US didn't supply Iran, but it was a small amount, it was covert and there was a scandal about it.
really? maybe I am wrong. What's the Irangate about Reagan then?
On the other hand, the US openly supplied Iraq with weapons to the tune of $200 million. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arms_sales_to_Iraq_1973-1990
