I wish someone would whoop our ass, because it has been a long time coming and we deserve it. We need taking down a peg or two and reminded that we don't own the world and its resources. We are too arrogant and drunk with power.

Wait, what? Is this real life?

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Are you for real?

If you read all of the other posts by dirtydog, it would seem so

Is there something wrong with being able to see our own failings as a country and the evil acts that we commit in the world?

No, nothing wrong with reviewing our actions as a nation, but then you write this:

Certainly is easy to write that from the comfort and safety of your own home isn't it.

I'm sure he'd regret saying that if half his family got wiped out by a suicide bomber.

This thread is a perfect example demonstrating that you cannot argue against stupidity, especially on the internet. Incredibly blinkered, biased views cherry picking media comments (from the very media they are also saying cannot be trusted) to fit their own agenda.

Only a fool would want us to loose a war though, but then I imagine you've never seen the horrors of war.

It was in response to a post saying that Gaddafi needed his 'ass whooped' No, I don't want us to be attacked, but that isn't to say we don't deserve it. Of course we do.

It is precisely because I do not want us to be at risk of suicide bombers that I would have us change our imperialist foreign policy.

We had oil contracts with Libya...

There is a difference between collateral damage and firing deliberately at protesters.

Are you saying they were targeting children?

 

[dirtydog]

As someone else said recently, we really need a no fly zone over Palestine. But then funnily enough the US vetoes every single UN resolution critical of Israel. And they have no oil.

 

[loltim]

daft question but do Libya have nuclear weapons?

No http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libya_and_nuclear_technology

They was about to lose them

 

[Slam62]

The west are itching to get rid of Gaddafi, he is a pain in the arse, they had to deal with him to get the oil. Now they have a chance to get rid of him. Lets face it though, what he is doing is wrong anyway.

 

[bloodline76]

Is there much oil in Libya? I wonder why we only take down dictatorships when there is oil involved...

Not that i am suggesting that we are only helping out for the oil...that would be silly.
