    No stance on any subject? No one knows anything about me? What on Gods green earth are you talking about? Say what you will about my opinions, but there is no way that you can rightfully say that they're undisclosed.

    Lets see...
    I've asked you questions like if you are for or against the UN, gun control,
    abortion and you don't respond.

    You said you weren't taking sides for or against the UN in your statements,
    same about Isreal so what is one suppose to think?

    Any post I've read of you, you seem to take the middle ground, I'm sorry
    I didn't realize one could be on both sides of every issue.
    When I talk to you I now feel like I'm on the gong show and you
    are the host.

    I ask you questions and you have no opinions other than ripping me, Martin
    or anyone else.

    Btw, I don't really think you are a libertarian, it seems to me they would side
    with the Democrats on every issue or hate Bush for every reason.

    You've never asked me about gun control, and I FULLY divulged my feelings on abortion in a thread last week. Just for the record, gun control SUCKS! As for the UN, yeah, I've got some mixed feelings. I think it's important to have a cooperative international community, but the idea of some of our nations actions being controlled by other countries is unsettling. Why are my feelings about them important? As I said already, the objective here was to reveal the hypocrisy of those who say 'F the UN', then use the violation of their resolutions as justification to invade any country we damn well please.

    What about Israel? Again, their violations were used for the sole purpose of exposing hypocrisy. Do you just refuses to understand that?

    Then you really should read more of my posts. The search function would be a grand place to start. I'm serious. You're just making up stuff to prove some abstract point, now.

    Btw, I don't think you have any idea what a Libertarian is, nor do I care if you think I am one.

    as i have said, i dont care about international law and i think the US should do whatever it wants. i guess if people dont understand what words mean and they think that is a hypocritical stance then ok.

    i dont know how many times i will have to say i dont care what the UN does and we dont need to use their sanctions as a justification.

    you do not understand. we do not invade because of UN sanctions. we invade because those UN sanctions are the rules WE want them to obey. even if the UN hadnt done anything, i would still favor invasion. we dont need any justification to invade any country we damn well please. we can do whatever we want, for any reason we want.

    i are not saying we are justified in invading because the UN rules were violated. we need no justification. if saddam promised his dog he would not pay the families of suicide bombers, and he broke that promise, i would favor invasion. would i then be a hypocrite for not doing all the rest of the things his dog wants?

    i dont care who made the resolutions that saddam promised to follow. i care that saddam behaves like i want him to.

    do you understand now?

    Hahaha...wow. I'm gonna leave that one alone. It needs no dismantling.

    I understand that you're a hypocrite. I've understood that for a long time now. No need to dissert about it.

    ok, well, i think the US can do whatever they want. if you think the US has to use outside bodies to justify their actions (i realize you dont think this, but are making a pointless argument about me rather than the issue) then fine. i think we should act in what we believe are our own interests without needing an outside justification.

    But, seriously, you have to realize we aren't the only inhabitants of the planet Earth. So what, you say? Well, I'm sure they're over 3 billion others who differ with you. Just something for you to think about. :wink:

    Oh Yeah, some of the other inhabitants of the planet Earth are terrorists
    that would chop your head off if they could.
    They declared war on us some time ago and want to take as many of us out as they can.
    I know some people in this country don't understand that since we've had it
    so good for so long.

    I guess you'll want to poll them before deciding what to do.
    With thinking of people like you Hitler would've taken over the world! :dis:

    I don't quite understand the opinions of alot of people on this board. On one hand you are pissed at Muslims for 9/11 and subsequent terrorist attacks that resulted in the deaths of innocents, and several have opined that we should just go in carpet bombing and wipe them out killing several thousand of of their innocents.

    Some people talk about how the Iraqis deserve freedom and whatever. Then in the next breath say we should drop the bomb on em and say screw em all. That to me is the hypocricy.

    Killing lots of terrorists is good, but you can't convince me it solves our long term problem. The terror cells are still openly recruiting all over the world and we are in this Iraqi quagmire with both Bush and his Veep saying bring it on. We don't even know the fundemental reason they hate us so much.

    The fact is we are never going to kill them all we need to find a way to heal this cut and not put a band aid on it.
