George dubya?
So now everyone hates him because he went too far and dropped the bomb on Japan because Brita
in and the international governments would not allow them to surrender?
Mmmmmmok.
I hate Dubya because he led the Spanish Inquisition. And he shot JFK. And when Rome was burning, it was Dubya who said "c'mon Nero, play us another tune on yer fiddle". It was Dubya who tempted Eve to eat the apple. Dubya invented Pot Noodles, Big Brother and Vanilla Ice.
And he apperently botched up your lobotomy, too

Better ideas for what? For stoping fanatical Iraquis from taking over Iraq?
For stoping Somalians from marrying each other?
Look P Gizzle, I don't hate or despise you or anything else of that kind. But when I read your posts I feel like I am having a discussion about "Is killing Jews morally wrong" with a member of the Hitler Jugend.
I know that your goverment is trying to convince you that there are enemies all around you who are just waiting to jump out of the dark and kill everyone you love because they hate democraty, freedom, capitalism or some other American value. Here in Croatia during the war between Croatia and Serbia there were lot of politicians and jurnalists who tryed to convice people that if a person is a Serb by nationality he is automaticly a bad person, and very possibly a monster. But, I know that that isn't true (and I know that any intelligent Serb also knows that he doesn't have to fear every Croatian he meets). There was a war. People did get killed. Civillians died too. But it was equaly dispicable when Serbian soldiers killed Croatian civilians and when Croatian soliders killed Serbs.
Some people here don't think so (thankfully they are in minority). Some people here think that "if a Serb lived in the territory occupied by the Serbian army, then they deserved to be killed as much as a Serbian soliders". I know that there are people in Serbia who think similar things about war-crimes their soliders commited.
But it isn't true. Killing civilians isn't what true warrior does. A warrior isn't a coward who substutes concience with orders. A warrior takes full responsibillity for what he does. If he recives the order to drop a bomb on a hospital or a residential building (in a country agains wich his country hasn't even declared war) he will NOT obey that order. He will refuse it and face the consequences of his actions. He will not hide behind his uniform. Like Naci soliders did. Like American soliders do.
