Oh yeah, that Arab Spring thing went really well. There is no reasoning with these people. They are all lunatics ready to spring to violence at the least perceived insult to their gutter religion. :terrorist:
Most of Europe hates you and you're wondering why the Arabs and Muslims don't like you? Farcical. Still, your own article disproves your own statement at the end of it, you're just not smart enough to spot it.
Gee, I hope some wild revolutionary Islamic group doesn't seize a U.S. embassy. Nah, that could never happen. And Muslems: if you want to live in the modern world, get used to "hurt feelings," especially when people critique the dreadful religion you follow.
Not when they fly planes into our buildings, bomb our embassies and vow to destroy our way of life. Fuck 'em in the ass with a red hot poker soaked in pigs blood.
I have no problem with hunting the fuckers down like a bunch of rabid dogs. They are murderers and worse and I'm agreeable to doing whatever it takes to get them. I have a problem with the idea that we should demand they get used to hurt feelings when we are still holding on to our own hurt feelings.
So how many of those involved in today's "OUTRAGE!!1!" are responsible for those things? Or would you be willing to take responsibility for the actions of, say, the Aryan Nation?
While I don't support baiting people (especially the decent and well-intentioned) on their religion, the fact is that Islam is going to have to come to terms with freedom of speech. And embracing that freedom, for them, is going to turn on tolerating criticism, rejection, and, yes, even ridicule of things they hold sacred. Us "being the better men" is often just enabling their resistance to this important concept.
I'm halfway surprised the Marines didn't shoot everyone who came over the wall. They should have, really.
The difference is our hurt feelings were watching over 3,000 of our citizens slaughtered for the very same reasons they get butthurt over perceived threats to their religion. There is NO equal ground here whatsoever. We could get over our hurt feelings and extend a hand in friendship, and they would still want to kill us because we are infidels, and our mere existence is an insult to their backwards religion.
Aw, where's the fun in that? Much better if they acted the way they do in graphic novels. How to start World War III over a piece of cloth.
Most embassies have been majorly redone post 9/11. If I had to guess, they have multiple perimeters and probably only fire at the outer ones if the number of people breaching said outer perimeter is too high.
People coming over the wall are already an incited riot. They're also crossing onto American soil, and the Marines would have had every right to shoot them as such.
Of course they have the right by law to fire in this circumstance. It would be a terrible idea to exercise that right. Fortunately, the marines who garrison diplomatic missions are far more sophisticated at understanding the nature of their job and how to handle threats than you seem to be.
I see the whole 2 billion of them are "they" again. I believe it was Hitler who said that a "they" was responsible for the Treaty of Versailles and all German problems in the 1930s.....
I don't think any of those people flew any planes into any of our buildings. If they did, it would be highly unlikely that they are still alive.
Typical leftie to whip out the Race card when it has nothing to do with race and everything to do with ideology.
Nah, they were probably just ordered not to by some politician spouting platitudes about "firing over their heads" and that bullshit. Now it's been shown that people can climb the wall and do shit without having anything happen to them, and in the process the people who did it essentially counted coup.
Why is the success of the Arab Spring measured by the favourability of actions toward the US? I hate to break it to you, but the US has been extremely unpopular (with good reason) for some time in the ME. Moron.
The Aryan Nation has no ideology? So you see them as just a bunch of guys hanging around having a beer. Seems as if you'd fit right in.
