No, I don't support the war, and think all soldiers - no matter where they come from - should be called back from Iraq.
YOU, are an idiot ...

i wasn't using mcdonald's to insult americans. it was used as an example of a commercial business. after all it is the most commercial business out there. obviously language changes, but it just just pisses me off that the us have such a bearing on our culture. and anyway, you're the one in the us, you couldn't really understand what it's like. how would you feel if the media began using "grey" rather than "gray"? you'd say "GOD-DANG! THAT'S WRONG!"... that's what it is, a little bit of difference my arse, there are many words that are spelled wrong all over the place...perhaps you are a bit too patriotic for your own good. america gets all the global bias, and also consumes 20 PERCENT of the world's resources. they have 5 percent of the population. fahrenheit 9/11 is a very well informed and researched documentary that many americans won't like as it points out how corrupt their country is. it's rotten to the core. britain is almost as bad, if not worse, but at least we accept that. americans seem to think that commerciality is the cure, when it is infact a major problem. obviously saying war is illegal is debatable, but then again, murder is illegal...
i'm not generalising all americans obviously, but some are like this. the government think they are supposed to rule the world, and that isn't good. anyway, i don't know what there came from "biased news reports". if anything i would say YOU should stop watching fox news. i'm just a guy who hates to see one country control everything. they shouldn't be in iraq, full stop. watch the massive sarcastic social commentary that is "team america: world police". it's funny 'cos it's true.
anyway we all have our own opinions, and on this occasion ours clearly differ.
inquitousbeast said a "smaller military presence and a higher commercial presence". if he was meaning what you said, he could have put it better. i interpreted that as meaning a lower us military presence and higher us commercial presence, given how he put the whole point.
and i rambled on about your language because, if you care to read the above posts, the topic was derailed somewhat when vampdude said it was "cool" that britain was like a us state.
on your response to elmarco: the reason we are being hit by terrorists is because of our involvement in iraq and afghanistan. now i'm not saying it was the fault of the us, but we shouldn't have got involved.
so basically yeah, we are viewing this from totally different perspectives and i would expect that is the reason we won't understand each other.:thumbup:
..
Fahrenheit 9/11 wasnt about proving that war is illegal and stupid because its not, its proving that bush is stupid.
war at this moment really has no point after all we bombed the shit out of iraq and now what the FUKK else is there to do??..
bring the troops home.. :( please
i dont like the war in iraq because we have nato and sends norwegian troops there and yes send that monkey eared man down from the president chair =( i hate bush so much
I thinking we should kill more Iraqis.
im not joining the english army because the americans will kill me in a hail of friendly fire
pull you fist out of your a** before you post, do you honestly think anybody would support killings and rapings, i was mearly bringing to peoples atention the horrors of war, maybe i shouldnt have used a satirical way of getting my point across, i guess some of our slower members dont get sarcasm.
It was used in a totally wrong context and in a way too serious case, and in the rest of your post, it seems those are really your standpoints, which makes it even more trustworthy. Don't believe I'm the only that thought you were actually serious, because I'm not. I didn't, and still don't, have my fist in my ass when I posted, and I don't regret it. I don't see myself as "some of our slower members" either.
