Many times in American men will duke it out get up shake hands and go have a beer. You people could learn alot from the American way. Stop holding so may grudges. And digging around in the past. The present is much more important than the past. Move on.
"You, Cash, are my best friend,
through thick and thin,
we've always been together,
we're 2 of a kind,
havin fun all day,
laughin around,
and playin away.
Just best friends, best friends are we"

The post that was quoted here has been removedI wasn't thinking of you when I was talking about learning that there are indeed Americans who fit the anti-American stereotypes. I learned that long before you even showed up in the forums, and I don't think you fit those stereotypes, other than maybe the feeling of superiority, judging from what you wrote earlier in this thread.

The post that was quoted here has been removed"Americans have a unique ability to mourn these losses on both sides of many wars without politicizing the motives.
It is one of the things that makes us great."
I don't know how to interpret that without an implication of superiority. As I said before, that ability is neither unique, nor does it apply to all Americans.
The post that was quoted here has been removedAs far as I can see, there were only 2 trolls at the start of the thread.
Jusuh and you. Zakk (an american) respectively gave his opinion, which you obviously didn't agree with, so you called him an idiot/white trash/neo-nazi and dangerous idiot.
Instead of trolling, why didn't you send feedback if you thought the comments were out of place.

Originally posted by NordlysNordlys, I am not reading that as a meaning Superiority. I wish you and your friends would get over your inferiority complex. He was saying that we here in America have the ability to forgive and mourn the loss of lives on both sides of conflicts. It's not that we enjoy war. Any reasonable person would be saddened by the deaths of conflict. We wish conflict and death wouldn't exist. Being able to honor the fallen in battle for their beliefs and having respect for the dead does make you great. If you can do that then you are included. It has nothing to do with Superiority, it has to do with honor.
