The fact that they're Muslims means nothing. I have made no distinction on that fact, so stop pulling things out of your behind. If such a large number of people were acting in the same way but under a different religion it would make no difference, the reaction would be the same. Muslims are just the current "trend" for this kind of conflict at the current time. Other people from different religions have done similar things in history and been met with the same resistance.
When? These kind of pre-emptive wars are new thing.
So if you had the chance to help make one persons life better, even if the general situation would remain unchanged, you wouldn't help them? You think the work of charities are pointless then I guess? Such a nice bloke.
What, you think our piecemeal and pathetic 'charity' work in Zimbabwe is acheiving anything? And I never said I was against charities, but I think that's slightly different to invading someone and killing a bunch of people to supposedly help them.
What if the conflict in other countries eventually perpetuates and ends up spilling over into your country? Will you care then? The world is a lot smaller than it use to be and very complex in the way it operates. Conflicts in far away countries have a global effect, as well as a local one.
This is garbage. Not to mention the 7/7 bombings were because of Iraq.
Watched Ross Kemp? He interviews a number of Afghan civilians and they all have the same opinion that they want ISAF forces to stay and help get rid of the Taliban. They don't like the war, granted, but they can't win it on their own.
Maybe you should watch a few other videos, one involving hundreds of Afghans out in protest against the U.S. and their military presence after a bomb had 'accidentally' killed a couple of people.
Attempting to deflect me away with irrelevencies in quotations is not going to work. Neither is attributing your statements as mine, trying to reverse the argument instead of explaining yours is pointless.
