>>CJ please answer these questions for me: why do you support the war?

I support the war because your president has put our countries in the position where we have no other choice. I believe that an issue has been invented (nuclear weapons) by george bush so he can convince his people that he is justified in blowing up a country that nobody can prove has anything to do with Bin Laden and the WTC/Pentagon attacks. If Bush backs down now, Suddam WILL use whatever weapons he has and we'll all be fucked. I trust that the leader of my country has made the right choice in supporting america in this game, just look at how you've treated france who didn't support your bullying.

>>Do you think the way women are treated in the middle east is good?

of course not, but I also think its disgusting that female circumcision is still very common in africa. should we blow them up to? what are you and your president doing about that? stop pretending that you care about middle eastern women ... you and your president do not give a shit about that - but you use it often to try to make the rest of us feel guilty for wanting peace.

>>Do you think people have liberty as we know and understand it in the middle east?

no, but what does that have to do with you? or me? what makes you think you can fix it by taking out 1 leader? again, another excuse. suddam will be replaced by someone the people want ... have you asked the iraqui people? you know, the ones you are speaking on behalf of? You are so convinced that you know what's best for them that they are justified in hating you. Have you considered that many of these people would prefer to continue living as they are rather than being killed, losing their homes or becoming permanent refugee's who will die in the desert because america has done what they came for and left?

>>Do you think the US and the west are a direct cause for these peoples msiery and lives?

not a direct cause, but a factor, yes. the assumption that everyone who is not living in usa style democracy is unhappy, doesn't hold with me. the key to accepting each other as different but equal is "They aren't wrong, they are different". USA has been trying to control the region for a long time, their people are pissed off and I believe they have a right to be pissed off. I'm not talking about the stupid jerks who believe that terrorism is justified because america is a bully ... i'm talking about the regular people, who dislike america's principals without ever wishing any harm come to america's people. surprise surprise, they do exist as a majority, terrorists as a minority.

your entire argument is based on the fact that bush is good because he's helping people to become more like america ... NEWSFLASH we don't all want to be like america.
